BLACK GRRLS EFFIN’ RULE!

I’m totally in chill mode this weekend but I thought that I could at least put y’all onto something that I’m digging on…

The Afflicted Yard is one of the sites that I imagined I could be when I started officially blogging. Although dude is a bigtime photographer it’s his ability to mesh his art with politics that I appreciated. T.A.Y. makes Black women look good, real good, and good looking Black women he makes them look stunning.

He celebrates their youth and their determination. He highlights their swagger. Take a look at his photogallery for women. Don’t be embarrassed, it’s still Women’s History Month. Call it research.

  • 3.
  • On a separate note regarding photoblogs…
    DP Dot Com is on the esteemed blogroll over at the D-Nice Journal. It’s a big look for me because D-Nice was the original blog that I read before I had this website. From that site I found IAN from A Different Kitchen and then ByronCrawford dot com. After that the rest is history. Now that my blogging experience has come full circle maybe it’s time leave “the game” as the cRappers might say…

    Hell to the nawww.

    I still got too much trouble on my mind.

    SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!

    The real blockbuster film that most internets geeks are waiting for this year will be ‘Transformers’. This is the joint that will have a lot of grown azz men leaving their parents basement’s and getting dresed up as their favorite characters. I might dress up too. Just not like that.

    Thankfully, NIKE has already taken the lead to creating some items that us cool nerds can wear in order to represent for the tech geek tribe. Inspired by one of the lead characters from the original cartoon they have created a sick pair of kicks that are on my short list of collectibles.

    The Optimus Prime Air Trainer III’s are looking like some fire azz joints to me. Premium leathers and high tech materials like 3M’s scotchlite reflective fabric are gonna make these kicks the futuristic jumpoffs. Remember when you were a kid and you had those L.A. Gear joints that lit up? I never had those…

    The clips from the movie aren’t totally church yet, but can you imagine anything coming from the Spielberg camp that was half assed in the end? Hell to the no.

    A LETTER FROM THE MANAGEMENT

    March 16th, 2007

    killah beez

    Not that it matters as is such that nothing really matters, but anyhoo, take it for what you want. I appreciate when some of you post comments into threads that relate to your comment, because your comments are a part of the website. When you leave a comment in thread that is related through content it allows the discussion of that content to continue, dare I say, indefinitely. I just left a comment on a blog post that was started on September 7th, 2005.

    I suppose this is my fault too since I have never really discussed this site. Blame the elitist fuck light-skin’ded neggar in me for that miscommunication underslight (my word bitches). I have a little search window just above the FireFox flag on the suicide bar of this site (if you just understood any part of that last sentence – you’re high or retarded, or both).

    Use that search bar to look up anything in the world. If you can think of something that isn’t mentioned on this site you win FREE DP Dot Com shit. Not actual feces since Google owns those, but shit in the colloquial possession sense. A tee shirt or something of no value unless you value it. If you spend your time here making this place look better then you have given me money. Time is money. I value your time. Consider the things that I send to you small thank yous.

    The Association ’07 Update: GEORGE KARL, Change Clothes Then Go…

    March 16th, 2007

    GEORGE KARL would be better off coaching a college basketball team. Watching the Nuggets beat the Lakers last night gave me this realization. He’s like RICK PITINO with his in-game coaching style and he has the sartorial style of Oscar Madison.

    Give the Knicks’ ISAIAH THOMAS GEORGE KARL’s lineup and he would be curing cancer.

    And if you have to select a DEAN SMITH disciple to replace KARL I’m sure JAMES WORTHY could use a paycheck (and some Denver hookers).

    franchise

    For one brief moment this week STEVIE FRANCHISE owned New York City.

    KOBE BRYANT was starting to believe the hype that he had made a full comeback into the graces of DAVID STERN’s bosom. You better check yourself before you wreck yourself KOBIATCH.

    LeBRON is the number one son and ARENAS is more marketable internationally unless you start speaking all Italian in the after-game press conferences.

    L BOOGIE’s scoring per game is down almost 5 points since the Commish forced him and other players to take off their pantyhose.

    I think that all the players should wear leotards with capes and luchador masks.

    That would be ill.

    The BeYONCE Factor Acts Up With JENNIFER HUDSON

    March 15th, 2007

    Hey party people, remember me? Look who’s back to entertain us? A brand new BeYONCE Factor featuring Hollywood’s flavor of the minute. JENNIFER HUDSON has been all over print magazines and television shows thanks to her role as the overweight soulful mammy character in ‘Dreamgirls’. Think of her as a modern day mashup of HATTIE McDANIELS and ARETHA FRANKLIN, except with less singing and acting ability. In their grand plan to diversify themselves Hollywood has knighted her. I expecty her next role to be that of an overweight soulful soul singer who has a bitchy attitude. Kind of a life imitating art situation.

    You folks remember how the BeYONCE Factor works don’t you? It’s really simple and here’s a quick rewind of the format for all of you folks scoring from home or the office…

    Jig, spic and priv celebs will be rated on a scale for how close their game comes to that of the pinnacle of all jiggaboo goddesses – BeYONCE. In parentheses are the factors that give each candidate a high or low score depending on how we at the website rate them. If a subject does exceptionally well with a factor then they will receive the full allotment of points (100).

    1) Can you say her name – (the more‘Black’ sounding the name of the candidate, the higher the number of points)
    2) Can she pay her bills – (cash rules everything around us – does the candidate have any?)
    3) Is she a survivor – (has the candidate had to endure scandal/controversy?)
    4) Baby boy – (has the candidate ever had an abortion?)
    5) Cater to you – (would you want a backrub from the candidate?)
    6) Dangerously in love – (is the candidate in a relationship that can’t last?)
    7) Bootylicious – (this should speak for itself)

    JENNIFER got sonned something proper when she tried to front on DON CORNELIUS’ parade. The Black DICK CLARK put a call in to tiny tall Israeli CLIVE DAVIS and told him that his girl was out of pocket. CLIVE did one of those pimp moves where he put his hand in the air and theatened to give her the ring side of it. JENNIFER just got hit with her first can of Ack Rite. Who does she think she is up in this bitch?!? ALICIA KEYS? Anyhoo…

    JENNIFER also threw some shit on the American Idol set up by saying that she was once an employee of Burger King and didn’t see the need to thank all of her former employers for terminating her. Burger King responded by giving her a credit card that gives J-HUD the ability to get B.K. Stackers forever. That makes her somewhat appealing to me now. But enough talk bitches, its time to factor…

    1) Can you say her name – 0 (JENNIFER is not a Black enough name, maybe if she appended it with ‘equa’ or ‘iesha’)
    2) Can she pay her bills – 150 (the front cover of VOGUE gives a mean check to cash!!!)
    3) Is she a survivor – 100 (up to this point it’s only been white folks pulled out of the garbage pile that is ‘American Idol’ runner ups)
    4) Baby boy – 0 (a Midwesterner older than 25 without a child[gasp]?!?)
    5) Cater to you – 100 (she does look like she can handle herself in the kitchen with some sausage and biscuits)
    6) Dangerously in love – 50 (no pics of her being circulated canoodling anyone. CLIVE DAVIS, get on your grind mister before the internets call her a ‘cuntsnacker’)
    7) Bootylicious – 100 (cute in the face and thick in the waist)

    JENNIFER HUDSON’s BeYONCE FACTOR totals = 500 points!

    Now Mz.B can rest easy again. JENNIFER HUDSON lost on American Idol for several reasons, mainly, because she lacks real musical talent. This bad dream that BeYONCE has been suffering through for the last several weeks will end shortly, possibly after she releases her first album. J-HUD needs to recognize that she is only borrowing BeYONCE’s Academy award.
