Rejoice in the streets Sneaker Fiends.
NIKE has retro’d the greatest of the Holy Grails. The Air Tech Challenge is my favorite tennis shoe of all time. It’s an all purpose sneaker that is great for cross-training and aerobics. I use them for styling on fools.
The AGASSI mullet however, is no longer available.
NIKE honored the high intensity colorways of the originals even though they didn’t retro the rubber flecked foam midsole that the grape colorway sported back in the day.
I’m not as hip as y’all might think. I slept on this chick AMY WINEHOUSE for months until C.S. played her album for me. I closed my eyes and I swore that I was listening to LAURYN HILL. I love the naked emotion that she transfers through her music. I expect to hear a track with her doing nothing else but crying out loud.
AMY WINEHOUSE continues a long line of white women from Britain doing sould music. Remember LISA STANSFIELD? And there was SINEAD O’CONNOR? I can never forget SADE either. WINEHOUSE’s voice and style even separates her from all of those great singers. On her most recent album ‘Back To Black’ she is accompanied by the Dap Kings. These dudes are the house band for the Daptones music label. They specialize in a sound that is reminiscent of 1950’s rock and soul.
‘Love Is A Losing Game’
‘Back To Black’
AMY WINEHOUSE is getting as much press for personal life as she is for her music. She appears at some of her performances drunk or drugged up and other times she just cancels her show outright. There’s the story of AMY vomitting on stage after a performance because he was so fuked up. The truth is that I can dig on a chick that vomits publicly. Not that dry heave crap either, but actual chunks baby.
She was advised by her management company to go into a rehab clinic and get her shit straightened out. Her response was to fire that management company and write a song about NOT going to rehab. Give her credit for her gullyness. She’s even sassy enough to pen a song telling people to stop leeching off her drug stash. AMY WINEHOUSE has got issues that’s for sure, but I ain’t mad at her one bit. Until LAURYN comes back to us I will settle for this bootleg British export.
‘Go To Rehab’
‘Addicted’
If you think that supremacy is going to wait for teenagers to come of age to join the military industrial complex or the prison industrial complex then you have another thing coming. Black and Brown teens feed the machine like organic tomatoes and the Bronx has been America’s ground zero since NIXON was in the building.
Bronx teenagers are learning about irony firsthand as students at the Community School for Social Justice are intimidated and threatened to submit to metal detector scanning against their will. Apparently the students have been learning too much about their civil liberties from an after school program coordinator. It seems that even a small charter school feels the need to treat their students like criminal chattel. What has to suck for these teenagers is the realization that the school safety officers are all people that barely made the journey through high school.
If you aren’t too busy signing petitions for juvenile delinquents like SHAQUANDA COTTON maybe you can show some support to kids that don’t beat their teachers…
REINSTATE KARIM LOPEZ – STOP THE CRIMINALIZATION OF CHILDREN
The new Republican endorsed corporate model for outsourcing American jobs to India has even come into the music industry. Fox televsion’s curiously popular show ‘American Idol’ continues to attract viewers even though the aggregate talent of all the contestants on that show can fit inside of a Dixie cup.
This may be one of those situations where people love to stare at the car accident in order to see a dead body. In any case, the show’s producers have teamed up with shock jock HOWARD STERN and MySpace and the Devil in Hell to give us this season’s emotional darling contestant.
SANJAYA MALAKAR is that perfect storm of non-talent and media generated charisma. My girl FRESH at Crunk & Disorderly loves dude to death, but her sarcasm is too much to bear. I have yet to turn on my television and watch this dude perform. I just refuse to let CableVision record my cable box tuned into that garbage that spawned CARRIE UNDERWOOD and JENNIFER HUDSON.
Someone buy this man some grillz…
