More Swagger Than Mick Jagger, But Regretfully Less Than Jimmy Swaggart…

swaggart

But y’all don’t hear BILLY X SUNDAY tho’.

Sometimes I have to talk retard to y’all so that you can understand what the fuck I am talking about. I told y’all that it was way harder to release a studio album than it is a mixtape. This is why Jadakiss is the king of mixtapes along with Wang and Fisty. I’m glad that some of y’all realize this shit now.

Today’s drop however is about swagger. It’s overused, but not proportionately overstood. What the fuck is swagger? Let’s see if we can clearly define it so that generations to come will appreciate just how valuable it is to have swagger. It shouldn’t be a situation where swaggers value can be altered like the stock market. Swagger must have a constant value. But to get the value you first have to know the formula (shout to Buckshot back on his feet)

Sw = 3+x(y)

If a rapper has swagger then he/she should be releasing slang into the culture that is adopted as the paradigm for expressing that idea. Wu-Tang brought the phrase ‘iced out’ into the lexicon. B.G. gave the world ‘Bling’. That is swagger when motherfuckers put your shit in a dictionary. I don’t consider a rapper’s fashion to be swagger because all these niggas have a fucking t-shirt company. Rappers never dressed me. I dress myself.

The only thing that matters for swagger is whether or not you got rhymes. I’m not talking about being lyrical either. I’m just talking about walking down the street and hearing people do your song or talk your talk. A nigga like E-40 gots hell’a swagger. Some niggas got swagger for the wrong reason though. Jay-Z got everyone thinking that a blueprint is the most official shit ever. Ha! A blueprint is like a Xerox copy you dumb motherfuckers. Yes, a blueprint holds information, but why not fuck with the original? I always miss some lines or measurements on a blueprint.

I wish niggas would stop crediting T-Pain for jacking Stevie Wonder’s robot voice swagger. That is my problem with swagger. Fools don’t know who to give the proper swag credit to. People might say that Lil’ Wang swagjacked the phrase ‘Ya Deeeg?’ from DipSet, but Cam and them copped that from Jimmy Walker. I will send five PayPal dollars to the person that pulls down the first rap song with the word swagger in a verse.

Fuck it, ten, ten PayPal dollars. Hahahaaaaa.
*uses The Count voice from Sesame Street*

Or you could go the route that has the word swagger buried for all eternity. I would comfortably return to using F.R.E.S.H. if I had to. Just don’t fuck with hardbody. That’s my shit.

Chocolate Snowflake and I flew on Air Jamaica during our trip to Barbados.

Air Jamaica gives you complimentary champagne, yet surprisingly no gift bag of weed.

The Airbus plane’s colorways put me in the mind for some Air Max 95’s that I remember seeing on clearance at V.I.M.

I’ll be copping these joints and calling them my DP Dot Com Air Jamaicas

SEPARATED AT BIRTH: No Good Times In Florida…

good times

ESTHER ROLLE would never have done this to JOHN AMOS…

The lady on the right rocking the Florida Evans natural just happens to be from Florida.

Homegirl wiled out by pouring the contents of her cookup pot of scalding ass water on her husband while he slept.

DAMN, DAMN, DAMN, DAMN, DAYYYYYUM!

The Official DP.com Unofficial ZipCar Commercial…

zipcar

Shout to all the i.C. producers and prA’li supporters that believe in my internets steez enough to send me operational money from their own wallets. Trust me that I don’t spend too much of your money on *ahem* medicine.

RAFI and I were traveling up to the beautiful Catskills Mountains in upstate New York to meet up with CASIMIR because ‘Bodega’ was being screened at the Woodstock Film Festival. I reserved a ZipCar for our trip. ZipCar is cool as shit because for the flat rate of your rental they pick up all of your gas and toll costs. Not even on some re-imbursable type ish either. Each car is equipped with and E-Z Pass and a gas card. Chea!

I reserved the Toyota Matrix for 7am at a garage a few blocks from Penn Station. When I arrived at 7:10am the garage was shuttered closed. Plus it was raining. It turns out that this garage didn’t open until 8am. I found this out at 7:40am after the attendant arrived. I called ZipCar’s customer service and I pitched a bitch. I told the rep that I had to get to movie screening in the mountains, but before all of that I had to pick the co-star. ZipCar sent me to another garage that was open and they upgraded my Matrix to a BMW 328i. Chea!

RAFI and I arrived early because I coasted up the NY Thruway at 90mph. Even the state troopers we encountered didn’t want it with us. The screening went down lovely and as you might imagine ‘Bodega’ was the belle of the ball, inciting the loudest laughs and getting us some groupie love on the streets of Woodstock. Since ZipCar also extended my reservation into a 24 hour window I used the time to…

  • a) Pick up a television from RAFI and bring it to my apartment in Freeport
  • b) Go grab up Chocolate Snowflake and have dinner with her siting in the car on Main Street in DUMBO overlooking the downtown Manhattan skyline
  • c) Stunt hard through Manhattan on a Sunday night
  • I can’t wait for the day when a company like ZipCar sponsors my site or the i.C.’s. That day can’t be too far off. In the meantime and in between time I will keep on making my vids and talking my talk.
