Rap’s Galactus Joins The Fantastic Four…

I previously called SlaughterHouse the Fantastic Four of the rap game, but now that the group has inked a deal with Eminem’s Shady/Interscope imprint they have gone supernova.

Along with Eminem and Yelawolf it’s like when Franklin Richards and Frankie Raye joined the team. I feel like they need to add another ‘X’ to this cover.

SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!

The people over at SneakerTUBE.tv are being really active and supportive as the site grows and becomes populated. It’s dope to see all the different types of sneaker heads post their reviews of their kicks. Some people really get into it. Like myself…

When I created the ‘World’s Finest’ pack at NikeiD I let all my fanboy energies go into the shoes. DC’s World’s Finest comic drawn by Neal Adams is one of the G.O.A.T. comics. I’m gonna bring these kicks to the next event Neal Adams is at and ask him to sign them. “Wait’ll he gets a load of me” -(c) Jack Nicholson as the Joker.

Rebel Rap Rock Music…

game rebellion

Rock and roll has been awaiting the coming of Game Rebellion for a long time: An all Black, all outta Brooklyn band whose metal, punk and rudeboy skanking licks sound as credible and crunchy as their Hip-Hop lyrics and head-bobbing bounce. Game makes the difficult sound effortless and the miraculous seem second nature: A hard rock band with a B-boy MC who can actually spit? No problem. A street worthy mixtape of hiphop anthems created by a band that actually rocks and flows? No problem.

Game Rebellion has been making big waves on the New York Afro-punk/Black Rock scene for about three years. In that short time they’ve ventured out even further out to slam heads rock houses and muddy the lilywhite waters of alt-rock from NYC and Cali to Puerto Rico and the UK. They just may be the best-kept secret in music right now (their vaunted endorsement sealed with a kiss from Sade notwithstanding).

A band of rowdy brothers with higher education pedigrees — Yohimbe and Netic have college paper, Chief Med is a qualified acupuncturist. They’ve got skills on the mic with book learned brains and aren’t afraid if today’s dumb and dumbered-down Hip-Hop knows it. The rebels are no strangers to the classroom, the rehearsal studio, the protest line or as one might suspect, the police.

So when are you gonna give their brand of gangsta-militancy a listen?

Kim Kardashian’s Discardable Whiteness…

Wednesday, January 5th, 2011

Kim Kardashian obviously has a little Black inside of her, and I’m not just talking about Ray J *rimshot*

I’m talking about the part of her that thinks you can cross colorlines in America. That worked for a while with Mariah Carey and even Tiger Woods, but it will come to nip Kim Kardashian in her ample tuchus before it’s all said and done.

Bo Derek could get away with her fetishism of Blackness and wearing prison plaits because she was basically ‘blonded’. I assume that we all know being blonded is the same as being bonded when it relates to ‘American’ privilege.

Kim is hell’a swarthy tho’ so she better watch out before the Illuminati makes her play on the darker side permanently.

You can’t just play around with whiteness that way.

Whiteness is some serious shit.

Do you realize there are people being promoted to jobs they aren’t qualified for because they have whiteness?

Do you understand that there are opportunities being given to people simply because they have whiteness?

And Kim Kardashian has the nerve to act like she can move back and forth with her whiteness as much as changing a pair of her underdrawls? Which I’m sure are delicious, BTW.

Somebody with some whiteness (like Madonna) better inform Kim Kardashian that playing Black is all fun and games until they start making your $change$ strange.

And I still don’t see any Black faces on the U.S. dollar. Do you?
