Shouts to my brother from another mother over at OhWord Dot Com. It looks like the New York City Department of Health has been watching the ‘Internets Celebrities’ videos. They just released a report stating that bodegas sell shitty foods. Ha. The Internets Celebrities told you that last year.

Former NYC Mayor EDWARD KOCH could have told you that the bodegas are the only places poor people and the disenfranchised shop. The bodegas are even frequented by the middle class as well. Former Mayor DAVID DINKINS still goes to the bodega when he wants to pick up some party favors. It’s real like that.

Speaking of bodegas…

Brooklyn Bodega Dot Com is at again. I’m talking about their annual Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival. NYC doesn’t have enough free Hip-Hop events planned for the summer but the Brooklyn Hip-Hop festival nearly puts the entire season on it’s back. There are weekly events that lead up to the climax which is an outdoor concert with Ghostface Killah. Large Professor has just been added to a couple of festival dates. So don’t fake the funk and get your mind right early this summer Put the Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival on your calendar. Not now, right now.

    All I gotta say is, $6.60 for a got’ damn pack of smokes? I need to move to NY. I would have quit a while ago at those prices.

    PS – That Dinkins pic is so clutch. I might have to take that to the local hood t-shirt guy and get that cracking.

    Nah, I hear you. My summertime trips to the windy city leave me feeling the same way. I don’t know how you all do it.

    Classic video DP!! I still love this one…

    Why does all the Bodegas have all that ish on the doors and windows? I see that all the time! Also, who’s using their Mastercard/Visa at the Bodega? Why do all bodegas look stinky and how come you can’t smoke in that piece?!

    Bodegas board up the windows, to stop the stray shots… We all know what happens in front of the bodegas.

    Almost every rap video has the shot of hustlin’, jackin’, murdering fools in fron of the bodega…

    The only things I miss from growing up next to a Brooklyn bodega are the quarter-waters, and the now-n-laters.

    After reading your comment, I fell out of my seat from laughing so hard!

    Thanks for keeping me awake at work…

  11. 40 says:

    LOL @ Candice. The fact that you were buying anything thats blue and edible is proof alone you were shopping in a bodega.

  12. Candice says:

    Cmon…you know the best icey is the Blue joint! LOL

    That roach was frozen, on hi sback with his little roach legs up in the air (no Kim Kardashian).

    I was officially done.

    Nuclear bombs can’t kill roaches. Only bodega food can kill a roach.
