MarQ Spekt takes a turn at directing a music video for one of his tracks from the MacheteVision project and dude makes what I call a classic Hip-Hop video.
I love ‘Spekt’s imagery of the NYC streets, structures, graffiti and gangsters. This is an AWESOME video. Watch it several times.
The autumnal season brings all sorts of familiar and favorable things to mind. The changing colors of tree leaves. Pumpkin spice lattes from Starbucks. Christmas music being played in department stores. Monday Night Football. And another sport altogether… Cuffing Season.
The hot “skin was showing” summer was jumpoff season, with casual hookups as far as the eye could see. But as summer winds down to a close it’s in our very nature to begin preparations for the cold months ahead. The high holidays are meant to be spent with loved ones, or at least a warm body. Join the Internets Celebrities on a field assignment to find out if Cuffing Season is real.
CHEA!

I’m on St. Ma’arten for five(5) more days and I’m starting to get paranoid. No Black man in America has spent this many consecutive days in paradise. Not even Jay-Z and he is ’bout that yacht lifestyle.
I’m not ready to be the most h8’d on. I know I act like that sometimes, but I’m just like every other person who is secretly a sucker for love. Even when I’m looking at the clouds in the sky I get photo-bombed by a Ms.Fat Booty.
This is why I’m so so paranoid about my return to NYC. The universe stays conspiring for me to succeed, even with the people who consistently block that path.
The key for me is to be like this little clamshell crab pictured below.
Dude is rocking his hardhat and he just keeps it moving. He’s undeterred by the bullshit beating him in the head.
That is until some motherfuxer decides to fux with him and have him for lunch.
First thing I’d do is become the CEO of a prison corporation. Prison corporations are contractors of the federal government. That is good money right there. The federal government bailed out Wall Street and the U.S. automakers to the tune of many billions of dollars. If the Fed can’t pay for it then it can’t be bought.
With the profits from my prisons due to the high levels of incarceration for shit like traffic tickets and throwing cigarette butts on the sidewalk I’d start an entertainment company with music, video and print outlets. My artists would be former and future inmates who would help me maintain and increase my prison occupancy levels.
Of course I’d give each entity a separate and distinct name, so this way you folks wouldn’t realize they were all guided by the same board of directors. Do you know how much money I’d make just from Black and brown people in America alone? Oh yeah, I’d scoop up some white folks too.
If I ruled the world…
How could I be mad at Jay-Z for giving his new arena the same birthday as mine?
From this day until they demolish the building to build a newer, larger arena I’ll have ‘Stadium Status’ on my new year.
Okay, I already have Stadium Status.
