Mad Libs…

Kool-A.D.-of-Das-Racist

Victor Vazquez from Das Racist isn’t waiting for the D.R. rap reunion. He’s busy dropping his own mixtapes while getting back to his Bay rapping roots.

Oh shit! Vic even gave me some space to inject my own mad libs on his music. We are all Rap Geniuses!

Here’s Vic and Meyhem Lauren getting busy.

Stream the Kool A.D. mixtapes at these links…

19 – This is the weirdo rap chamber that Vic occupies. I shouldn’t say weirdo, but progressive. If you fux with Lil’ B and the Pharcyde you will def vibe off this tape.

63 – This tape is for the folks who still live for lyrical miracles. If you are a boom bap dinosaur this mixtape is your tarpit.

Buying sneakers is such a foreign process to me now. Forget about walking into a store and picking up a pair of kicks from off the wall. Unless you are in Flight Club those days are dead. From here on in you will HAVE to use the internets to buy your sneakers.

Nike must be tired of me making my lineup videos?

BeYonce’s performance at the halftime mark of the Super Bowl was a cultural touchstone moment. Even if you weren’t watching the show I guarantee you remember where you were at the moment since it was the most discussed thing in the universe.

For all the strum and drang about the set she performed, the clothes she wore and the deviltry she allegedly professed I haven’t really seen too much media that has entertained me like the image below. I grabbed a cover title from the Sensational She-Hulk and pasted it atop.

The ‘Mrs.Carter Tour’ is coming soon to a city near you. DO NOT call BeYonce by the name She-Hulk tho’. She h8s that and you don’t want to see her angry. You wouldn’t like her when she’s angry.

After 30 Years This Box Still Rocks…

Without Video Music Box, the creation of Ralph McDaniels, there would be no BluCheezTV. Video Music Box was my after school crack. I’d rush home after school to watch music videos from rappers to punk rockers and everything in between that had soul and funk within its sound.

Video Music Box was transmitting music thru imagery. Basically what YouTube does today, but this was way before the internets and even before my parents had access to cable television. Respect the architect that Ralph McDaniels is for showing the whole of Hip-Hop before MTV, VH-1 or even B.E.T. had the platform.

Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five – ‘The Message’

THE CLASH – ‘This Is Radio Clash’

WHODINI – ‘Funky Beat’

The System – ‘Don’t Disturb This Groove’

Imagination – ‘Just An Illusion’

FREEEZ – ‘I.O.U.’

Pretty Poison – ‘Catch Me’

Malcolm McClaren – ‘Buffalo Gals’
