Yes, it’s that time of the year again – Cuffing Season.

The time between Labor Day and Columbus Day are what as known as the Cuffing Season aka the Jumpoff Season playoffs. Young men and women will make their selections for winter weather companionship. Let’s see who can take it all the way to Valentine’s Day 2012.

Please enjoy this Cuffing Season 2011 soundtrack brought to you by ErRo and Phontigallo – ‘Picture Perfect’

Make sure to holler at the DP.com fam if you get taken down in Cuffing Season 2011.

I’m not just someone who talks about getting cuffed up on his weblog. I’m also a Cuffing Season 2004 draft pick.

The God MC Rains Supreme…

Monday, August 22nd, 2011

The forecast predicted rain in the afternoon but the weatherman didn’t even know that the reign would not fall as long as thousands of Hip-Hop fans came out to show their support.

The god MC Rakim would grace NYC with a free performance at the Rumsey Playfield SummerStage and bring out some of his friends to rock the stage along with the greatest rapper of all time.

Rakim is a lyrical scientist who crafts verses filled with double entendre and polysyllabic words. I will never forget how Thundercracker used to transcribe Rakim verses and just marvel at the wordplay which made him open a dictionary to achieve full comprehension.

Rakim paced the stage from left to right making sure everyone saw the visage of your favorite rapper’s favorite rapper. This was his triumphant moment in the heart of New York City.

The congregation raised their hands in salutes and tributes to what ended up being a perfect sunshower afternoon filled with Hip-Hop.

The fun doesn’t stop over here at dP.com because I have a free FLuD watch for the first person who can name all the dudes in these pics with me.

IT WAS ALL A DREAM…

BYOBBQ set list

I remember after I did the first Bring Your Own Blogger BBQ with Combat Jack that I told Chocolate Snowflake I would never do that shit again. I had fun the first time but I also spent too much time administering the event. The bloggerati I wanted to politick with I ended up missing because I was too busy filling up containers with my special drink concoctions.

I fell into that same mode again at the BYOBBQ doing admin shit and not shaking hands or kissing the babies, or even emceeing the procession of entertainers who graced the makeshift stage at The Morgan. I can’t fault my partners Combat Jack or Peter Oasis who have the larger sense to know that I’m prA’li better at the back of the house getting high and barking orders.

I say that I won’t do this shit again, but I also said I wouldn’t do a podcast show at PNC Radio and a year later I’m still doing a podcast show at PNC Radio. I did meet one of the internets last nite and she has the best TWitter iD I’ve seen in a long time – putyoudreams1st

What a revelation.

I was still trying to make heads or tails of the shit I had in my pockets from yesterday.

My last $21 dollars in cash form

#newmanati RSVP wristband (pause to TOPMAN)

zero balance bankcard (used for iD purposes)

Orbit gum so my breath doesn’t zeek eyebrows

Transit block tickets from previous day power outage

Real-D 3D glasses to hopefully not miss anything that happens in life which for me is real and always in 3D even when its virtually all about the internets.

Thanks again you for continued support.
