If television turns our brains into mush what do you think the computer does?

All Day I Dream About Sneakers…

Saturday, October 10th, 2009

grand prix

Since my attempted redress to adidas has fallen upon deaf and dumb corporate ears I have decided to continue my campaign to champion the rights of sneaker fiends.

Do you live in the Tri-State NYC area?

Do you love sneakers as much as I do?

Would you like to show the corporate monolith your voice?

Do you have a pair of adidas(new or used) to donate to this follow-up video project?

Leave me a comment, even if you aren’t in NYC and I will make the arrangements to acquire your donated shoes. I want this story to be bigger than just my grievance. I want this story to be as big as the internets.

Faded Off The Brown Like Nino, We Know…

What is the magical allure that Hennessy holds for Black folks? It is our glory and our downfall. You see what the Henroc did to our homey ‘Ye Tudda at the VMAs? And still we flock to the brown for our salvation.

When I have kids before I hold them up to the stars for my ancestors to view I will baptise them crumbsnatchers with some Henny on their foreheads.

The spirits were in full effect Wednesday night for this event called Hennessy Artistry curated by the Roots and Common. Hennessy is the slave song spiritual syrup. Do you understand now why they call liquor spirits?

I had to take a pic of white dudes at a Hennessy event. It’s like seeing brothers chilling at a Pabst Blue Ribbon party.

Hennessy enabled homegirl to tie that bowtie… With her mouth.

roots

The legendary got down to business. I’ve declared previously that Black Thought is the number one emcee dead or alive. Thought moved the show along from performer to performer seamlessly creating hype and excitement as he set the stage for each unexpected guest.

Thanks to Hennessy the Roots actually performed in front of Black people for a change.

colin munroe

Gingerboy crooner Colin Munroe showed he got soul.

bilal

Bilal was taking the sisters to church. This brother better be careful too because one of the big girls up in that joint might could’a snatched his little narrow ass up and used him for a tampon.

On second thought, that’s prA’li all Bilal ever wanted.

q-tip

It was fun to see Tip do some ATCQ classics. Good thing Common and Black Thought were on the mics also to help Tip remember his rhymes

latifah

U.N.I.T.YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

The Queen of rap tore the house down. I haven’t seen Queen Latifah perform in a thousand years(Naughty era). She is totally what the game is missing and by that I mean her incredible talent on the mic.

Not so much to her Sapphic skills.

The spirits were flowing freely and the full cipher of Hip-Hop was represented at the Hennessy Artistry event. Even Hip-Hop curmudgeon Ernie P. can’t be mad at that. Then again, I’m sure that Ernie P. could hate on a childbirth.

Whitey On The Moon…

pet rock


Gil Scott-Heron – ‘Whitey On The Moon’

I wonder how many other people got gaffled with these pet rocks the US State Dept was handing out?

‘Moon Rock’ in Dutch Museum Is Fake

The National Administration for whatever S and A stand for is talking about shooting missiles at the moon in order to kick up some dust so the rocks can be examined for signs of water and other minerals. You know, the type shit niggas would do if they owned any REAL moon rocks.

The moon walk may be faker than the hair BeYonce wears to the B.E.T. awards but you know what shit was real live and direct? John F. Kennedy getting killed on television. Stop asking questions about the moon if you know what’s good for you. And even if you don’t know what’s good for you button your lip for the rest of your family.
