ERNIE PANNICIOLI’s TRUE SCHOOL WISDOM…

Thursday, June 28th, 2007

dp big E

Editor’s note: Most of you already know that ERNIE PANNICIOLI is a legend among Hip-Hop fans because of the work he has put in documenting the culture from it’s inception. Whenever I catch him on the G-chat I try to engage him for one of his lively takes on Hip-Hop and life because to him these two things are immutably inseperable. ERNIE is a great conversationalist which I think has to do with his level of experience here on Earth, but don’t call him old school…

Dallas,
So much has happened in the past week, whew. I remember you asked me to write an essay for your site. What subject would you like me to cover? Anything? Thanks, High Exalted Grand Master Hip Hop Legend Ernie Ern is at your service. I had to find a new moniker, all these pioneers, lyingeers, jiveassbullshiteers and even half ghey new jacks and jills all got cools names (or is that just a jig thing?), so I am working on a new title for myself.

Let me see…

  • Supreme – overused by cats with multiple babies mommas and triple life sentences
  • Grandmaster – old fat and flabby, broke ass dj’s and arrogant legends worked this one to the bone
  • Exalted Master – sounds like some Skull and Bones inner sanctum lodge leader
  • Big Daddy – Kane and about 200 country ass pimps from Georgia have a lock on this one
  • Bone Daddy – too many bones, Lazy Bones, Crazy Bones, Hazy Bones, Dizzy Bones, Bonz Malonez
  • Rolling Thunder – about 100 of them per Rez that’s reservation to you son
  • Eagle Bear – on government forms they transpose the names so it would read Bare Eagle
  • Amazing – Kreskin has that copyrighted
  • Killa or Murda – way too violent and would not endear me to a jury or a fat White judge in case of a trial for past high crimes and misdemeanors
  • Lil’ – I’d have to be 5 foot tall with a squeaky voice or a blond weave to use this one
  • Tiny – reserved for guys 7 foot tall and 5 foot wide
  • Escobar – Nas wore this out and again it would play havoc with my defense team
  • Honorable Minister – that Muslim leader from Chi Town got that on lock
  • Divine Knowledge Mathematics – see # 1
  • Awesome One – that chubby, hard drinking DJ couple got that word sewn the fuck up
  • Godfather – Bambaataa disowned it when the Muslim Minister from Chicago gave the name to Ru$$ell $immons, Brando fit in it like a glove and Herc is too damn protective of the title since James Brown transferred essences

    • After all of that deliberation I still haven’t found the title that I like overall. Maybe I should just be like KRS and just stick to using the title of teacher.

    I’m sorry, did I disturb your concentration?

    Peace out,

    MISTER ERNIE

    A LETTER FROM THE MANAGEMENT

    Thursday, June 21st, 2007

    pwnd

    Check yo’self before you wreck yo’self…

    Are you folks preparing for halftime? The second quarter will over shortly. Where are you at with your plans? Are you in the lead, or are you playing from behind? I was in the lead for most of the second quarter but a few turnovers cost us our lead. We’re a better team than we’ve shown so far, but the second half is the time to put up or shut the fuck up. Let’s clear up some personal business so that we can get ourselves lined up for the third quarter…

    I have to make a formal apology to a fellow blogger that I made a disparaging remark about at another website. Jay Smooth, I apologize to you brother. My remark was silly and hateful considering the fact that I don’t know you at all. I just assumed by the fact that my site was not listed on your blogroll you were part of the hate filled handshakes that I encounter on the internets. Maybe your site’s template only allows for a certain number of links in the sidebar. Who knows? I certainly don’t. And I shouldn’t have been so hurtful to anyone particularly one of the Hip-Hop blogging community’s pioneers. Jay Smooth’s website Hip Hop Music Dot Com is one of the websites that has the word Hip Hop in the site name in case you happen to be Googling the word Hip-Hop. That’s a pretty powerful boulder to hold on your shoulder. If you know what I mean. Who has time to add my site to their blogroll anyhoo? Especially when no ones reads this shit in the first place.

    So again Jay Smooth, I sincerely apologize to you if you still feel a kind of way.

    FLAWLESS HUSTLE’s FATHER’s DAY
    You already know that GABEROCKKA is my peeps. Me and dude linked a madd long time ago over some vintage Nautica caps that I was selling on eBay. GABE is mos def one of those Steep Tech North Face heads from back in the mid 1990’s. These were the younger cats that came to Tents and Trails and dropped hundreds on the ill Gore Tex mountaineering coats. GABE stays styling on fools and bagging up fly broads. GABE just added a baby boy to his playboy repertoire…

    A 40 DAWG Celeb Story…

    Friday, May 18th, 2007

    40

    Editor’s note: 40 DIESEL out on the town in NYC.

    I was rolling with my ace Ray aka “Johnny Cash” to this party for my man Dave Ortiz & Chris Keefe’s sneaker spot DQM. It was at The Beatrice on 12th Street & West 4th and while strolling through that section I remarked “This is true celebrity NYC. I wouldn’t be surprised to see like Gwynneth Paltrow buying a Nutrament or some shit.”

    So I’m at the party and I’m Schillin’ like Curt with a bloody sock when the waitress asks me and my peoples to move from the table we’re at because it was “reserved”. So as I’m getting up I look and I see Lindsay Lohan. She noticed I noticed and gave the cutest smile and wave to me. So as her party was getting situated I introduced myself and asked if she wanted me to hang around there since people were coming up with their cameras. She was like “Thanks that would be so awesome. You’re really sweet!”

    So I’m holding down LiLo drinking Stellas and doing what 40 does. So they’re about to leave and she asked if I could help her and crew get to the car outside. I agreed but asked if I could get the flick and she was like “Sure!”. Get the shot, clear a path and right as I’m about to go outside there’s like 20 paparazzi out there. So I was gonna cover her with my Mitchell & Ness joint but her publicist was like like “Nah if you cover her up it seems shady, just let them get their pics”. I walk out to a hail of flashbulbs and got her in the Escalade they were in. Asked if they needed my services for the rest of the night but they were just going to eat and call it a night. I wish I had a card so I could of offered my services full time. Because for $100G’s a year I’ll take care of one of these starlets…

    Shit, I’ll even get a frappachino or two if she needs it…

    Respect This Man And His Links…

    Wednesday, May 16th, 2007

    links

    Let’s pray that he’s saying nullus…

    I have been a poor member of the online community over the last few months. I’ve been so totally wrapped up in my ish that I haven’t been giving shouts to all the people that entertain and enlighten me when I bounce around the internets.

    I know just where to begin…

    25 For Life, Rap Music’s Greatest Albums
    JOEY from Straight Bangin’ and JEFF from Passion Of The Weiss have formed Voltron to save Hip-Hop. They invited their internets friends (read: internets bloggers whom they have never met) to submit lists of their favorite 25 albums within the Hip-Hop genre. This was at first an anxiety filled project because who in the world can create a list with only 25 albums after listening to Hip-Hop for more than 25 years? I was encouraged by the creator’s of the project itself when they submitted their own lists. I didn’t feel as odd any longer for the choices I had made.

    I give these dudes mad respect for the time and care they put into this project. When you click on either links for Straight Bangin’ or Passion Of The Weiss don’t just review the top 25 albums but also view the spreadsheet. These dudes won.

    A few of our regular friends have been pretty busy lately too…

    ROBBIE from UNKUT Dot Com might be the best Hip-Hop journalist evar. Firstly, dude knows his shit inside fucking out. Secondly, because he knows his shit so well he is able to bring out the best interview from his subjects. This drop he does with my nigga MIKE HERON is one of the realest interviews you will ever read. Stand up Queens and all of you Newtown High School dropouts!

    VIK from BIOCHEMICAL SLANG has become a blogging beast. Mind you that this kid is in school to be like a neurosurgeon or some shit. I’m gonna get my lobotomy on the hookup after he graduates.

    AMADEO SOGNI is letting his hair grow back. Single Black male adult angst from B’More Maryland. Way more introspective than ‘The Wire’.

    I met this sister JAYLYAH over the weekend at the STEVIE WONDER tribute. SHE REAL COOL needs to be renamed SHE REAL CUTE. If I were you fellas I’d get my ass to the next Brooklyn Museum of Art First Saturday or the next Prince vs. MICHAEL JACKSON party in the hopes of meeting a sister like her. And don’t be afraid of a woman with an expansive vocabulary, on the low, most of them are the freakiest chicks in the game.

    This cat MEKA SOUL is one of the dudes I have to compete with for daily drops at a Hip-Hop site, but I like his style because it reminds me of me. With all of these new bloggers coming up in the game it’s hard to remain the top site for Hip-Hop news and views. Give ByronCrawford.com credit for remaining relevant after all of these years.

    Speaking of newjacks, I FUX is getting his blog grizzly together. Note to I FUX: If I were you I would start to call those drops featuring the smoking hot models – Icandy. Nuff’ said.

    Lastly, but not least, H8TORADE is that shit
