Sean Price told me to stop fuxing with Snickers. He was like, “Snickers is made to look like a Black man’s penis, and what the fux is that nougat shit that always be hanging from people’s lips?” ROFL.
True to life if you’re a hardbody rapper you might should avoid candy bars before you end up spitting candy bars. So here’s a collection of pauseworthy candy bar pics. And don’t act like Sean P ain’t warn you…
Pitchers and catchers [ll] are back to work.
So the question I’m asking you sneakerfiends is… WWKGJD?
What Would Ken Griffey Jr. Do?
Be a swingman [ll].
Meyhem Lauren released his debut project last week titled ‘Self Induced Illness‘. The project is a double album of beats and rhymes dedicated to NYC’s golden era of Hip-Hop. Instead of being on some when-they-reminisce type vibe it remains true to the spirit of the early 1990s music which was to stay low, bag hos and stack figures. With the occasional night out with the fellas to get drunk and beat the shit out of someone caught slippin’.
Fuck what you heard, that is the essence of NYC rap. You take each day for what is given and you realize that somewhere nearby someone isn’t as fortunate as you are. That is the perspective Meyhem employs throughout this project. You can clearly hear it in some of the classic anthems he has crafted like his paean to all graff writers ‘Got The Fever’.
I’m happy that Meyhem Lauren made this project so comprehensive. 41 tracks is a lot of music and I wouldn’t suggest that you listen to this album straight thru unless you are making a run from New York to Richmond with one of those things. But with this project you have a complete Meyhem Lauren portfolio. You get the panoramic view of his flows and his rhyme skillset. Meyhem Lauren is a fresh man, fux that XXL corporate bullshit.
The Outdoorsmen crew has ample features and that means Action Bronson and Meyhem do their Lethal Weapon duo shit hardbody. I love some of these J-Love tracks which are so reflective of 90s era rap. Thorotracks, Juelz Polar and Nickle Plated also supply some sonic bangers to this project. If you want to hear some rap music from the radio then don’t click any of the links I’ve supplied below. This rap right here is too real for your radio. Meyhem Lauren is too ill for that bullshit.

KanYe’s latest album is filled with so many talented collaborations that I thought he would make sure his visuals contained that same global perspective. Instead he takes the song which along with ‘Lost In The World’ has the best universal sound and makes a very narrow-eyed video.
Sure Rihanna has nice tits, but I can’t get past that silly red wig. She looks like the Wendy’s fast food restaurant chain mascot’s bastard child. Hype Williams is skating on his rep at this point by copying the conventions of other people’s videos.
I hope KanYe goes back to his arthouse ambitions for the next video.
This pop art shit is wacksauce.
The Knicks are looking like a traditional Western Conference team. Plenty of scorers and no defenders or rebounders. I welcome Carmelo Anthony to MSG, but I’m leery to anoint the Knicks as ‘chip contenders for the Eastern conference. We still need too many key players for the team defense to halt a squad like the Celtics or the Magic.
It is nice to see the Knicks building a team with bonafide parts tho’. I couldn’t score a scalped ticket earlier this season so I know getting into the Garden now is a wrizzap. Oh well, since the Knicks are owned by Cablevision I just better make sure I keep my cable bill current. Let’s go Knicks.
