"Walk a mile in our shoes"...

Photobucket

now we all have heard about this...if not if you have common sense you can pretty much see whats going on...i tried to stay away from this one but i just couldnt. It bothers me way too much...anyone in their right mind can look at this cartoon and see the masked racial message that is being portrayed. Although President Obama didnt "write" the stimulus, which was the excuse that was used. What does this chimp have to do with the stimulus, that they had to depict cops shooting a monkey to make a joke about current events?...if the joke is about "even a crazed chimp could of wrote the stimulus" then it would of been a complemetely different drawing. This cartoonist knew exactly what he was doing when he drew this. Everyone knows the racial comparison between Blacks and monkeys that white people branded us with..its the same white people who branded people of dark skin from the middle east as "sandmonkies" and "sandniggers" after 9-11....depicting a monkey as a black person has became like a modern day "black face" ......so playing dumb about not realizing the racial message behind that cartoon is nothing but BULLSHIT!!!...anyone including white people in their right minds can see the insensitive and crude racial humor in it..alot of republicans and alot of other white people are having a blast looking at it in the comfort of thier home but will look you in your face and say "no this isnt racist at all are you serious? i dont see it..its just a joke about current events"....what we all have to do is look at the resume of this cartoonist which will prove my point in which he knew exactly what he was doing...."Sean Delonas" the cartoonist has made other racial and anti-gay cartoons in the past that has been posted in the New York Post. So the post has a history of coming out with offensive things. The point is that you can never understand another point of view if your mind is biased,until its you in the opposing postion then thats when shit hits the fan right?...being black in america is like being the only white person in a katt williams show lol..even tho that was a joke its being completely honest...a white person is like the man on stage and were the ones in the crowd getting attacked in all ways possible...we've learned to deal with it of course but when shit gets thrown in our face like this article which is a spit in the face to the african american community because we see the message behind it, it turns into a "slavery was 400 years ago get over it..stop being bitter" type thing...it has nothing to with being bitter,it has EVERYTHING to do with the ignorance of whites (not all of course..jus generally speaking),racial profiling,and the hidden racism we have to deal with on an everyday basis. Until they get put into that position the people who are "pro" this article will NEVER understand where we are coming from. For example my best freind is white,and this one day we had a meeting with a lawyer for an accident that happened and im dressed pretty casually like button up shirt,slacks and nice shoes and hes wearing like cargo shorts and a regular shirt..and he's like "you know..you dont have to dress all fancy.were just going to talk bout a few things"....i had to explain to him that "me, being an african american young male i HAVE TO go the extra mile with certain things, if im going somewhere like that..i can not go dressed up in cargo shorts and skateboarding shirt..i have to dress presentable..we have to EARN those peoples respect..its not just given to us like it is given to you...you can walk in dressed like that and you get looked at as a "surfer/skateboarder" type dude at the worst...i walk in there dressed-down i automatically get labeled a gangsta or something of the sort..." and he quikly understood where i was coming from...but he didnt even look it that way because white people generally dont have to go the extra mile like we do...so they dont understand where were coming from unless you sit them down and deeply explain it to them....i can go on and on about the racial profiling thing thats why i tried to stay away from this 1 lol...but this is getting wayyyy too longgg!!!! lol i dont want to bore my followers with these long ass blogs lol

p.s. to any followers or readers that took any offense to anything i wrote..please dont..i wasnt attacking white people as a whole when i refer to "white people" i know many good-hearted white people without even a spec of racism in em..im speaking generally thats all...and to all the other races of color or any other nationalities that get racially profiled ,dont feel left out lol i was just focusing on the african american side of it because of the article content..

Plain and simple!!!

i want a new freakin Tattoo!!!!!!

Grrrr!!!

ok...so this has always been a pet peeve of mine....yall know how when you go on hiphopdx or any of those sites even youtube.....and you read peoples comments and for some reason watching or listeniong to other people,i dont know i guess since there like watching i guess they feel like there simon cowell or something like these nobody ass niggaz would sit there and leave a comments on like a FAMOUS artist song or video..trying to criticize as if what they say matters lol....please dont do that people...because #1. you look mad stupid criticizing someone elses work when your sitting home on the computer,in some flip flops eating potato chips and shit lol and #2. YOU CANT GIVE SOMEONE ALREADY WITH THEY FOOT IN THE DOOR YOUR 2 FREAKIN CENTS...the last thing these artist is going to do is go and look at comments from unqualified people and be like "iight this random nigga is right" lmao...we all know what im talking about too...those "this shit sux..a lil more this and less that charles hamilton"...."joe budden you nice but you need stop doing blah blah blah and ull be good"..."kanye west you suck stop what your doing right now"....like wtf,under what and whose standards?? lol stopping talkin to them and giving advice as if their actually listening.let the music be music....comments are meant for your opinion not criticism and trying to tell someone what to do as if what your saying matters.....if you think it sucks say it sucks and keep it moving..your advice on how to make music isnt needed until you got something under your belt......

lost time....

sorry my fellow blogheads lol!!....i been m.i.a. for a little bit, ive been falling a bit behind in school and stuff so i been focusing so much and trying to catch. so cross your fingers for me lets hope i make it through this quarter successfully!!!!...but on a brighter note todays my day off :-D lol so ill be making up for lost time..throughout the day ill just be posting here and there..i got alot to get off my chest since im a behind in the blog game..some of you probably dont give two shakes of a dick about anything i have to say lol but for those who do...stay tuneddd :-P

"So Far Gones'" turns...

Photobucket

lol ok i might get alot of negative feedback on this one..maybe not...dependin on who's listenin. But i dont know if its because im use to listenin to the older drake stuff but im just not feelin this at all...there was a couple hot ones but for the most part this 1 was more for the ladies it seems...ever since he kind of adopted that weezy type style i havent really been much into him as much..but i got respect for what he trying to do right now...he did alot of venting on here so i definitely feel that im all for any artist making music to express whats going on in they life. but for the most part i wasnt into this 1 that much alot of the beats seemed very similar it was kind of repetitive...on "ignorant shit" he went strong on his verse..(no comment on wayne..alot of you know i feel about him lol) and "say whats real" i heard awhile ago it was on point too, but my nigga SIN!! already merked that 1 sorry drizzy lol...."brand new" has always been a hot track since way back thats why he keeps putting it out lol...umm off the top i cant really think of anything else that hit me like "damnn".....but yeah im sure if you guys been fuckin with drake since awhile back you know this mixtape is nowhere near as hard as "comeback season"..but i guess its good for someone who was a star on "degrassi" (lol no lowblow just a joke)....so now u know i got to hit you with some old drake lol....

WOW...is all i have to say bout this 1....he went off on this...people knock him all the time for this and that...but you cant knock his creativity...this dude comes out with this mixtape alllll about Rhianna..which hes like head over heels for..pretty much with the intent to make something happen with her..thats why its called "Well isnt this awkward.." the man never even spoke to her before but hes going in for the kill lol.......on the back cover its him standing with the track listings i guess u can say raining on him with him holding an umbrella (Rhianna; umbrella-ella,ella...u get the point lol) ...as if hes waitin for her to come underneath...hes whylinnn haha but hey maybe itll work who knows....as far as the mixtape content.....this in my opinion was his best mixtape lyrically but i still think the production and overall quality of "the L word" was better..i think he might take some heat for it from the bloggers and other musicians and what not..but he got my respect on this 1 for making something to both entertain us listeners and also try and get his message across to her...the thought process behind every mixtape/song he does is ridiculous...

Good luck Mr.Hamilton lol....

...Voices...

So im sitting in music promotion class bored as everrr and mad tired so i started dozing off with my eyes wide shut...and the teacher asked me a question and i was not paying attention i was in another world, and he made a joke about how i was deaf to anythin thats not coming out of my headphones and that lead to me think.....when we think to ourselves we hear a voice in our head that speaks to us (try it out right now..ull hear it lol)...we hear it as if its us talking to ourselves without opening our mouths. Now, since we hear a voice..what is it exactly a deaf person hears or see when they think?? when i say deaf i mean someone who hasnt heard all their life,they've been deaf from birth or as a baby..what is the voice in their head that we all have doing? is there maybe a language they undastand in their head that subsitutes for the "voice"..i highly doubt they picture sign language you know?. I REALLLLYYY want to know how that works so if anyone knows the science and what not behind it..fill me in lol

name that tunee!! (Killing me softly)

This is a very common one. Til this day alot of people still think this was "The Fugees" and pretty much give lauryn hill all the credit...dont get me wrong she did do her damage to the track..but then again,what doesnt she do damage too? lol....but yeah this classic is "Roberta Flack" but written and composed by Charlie Fox and Norman gimbel...it was actually origianlly in a another language if i remember right and Roberta Flack re-did it to the version everyone knows and loves..i fell in love with the poetry in the song,which is lauryns style as well and not so much Roberta Flacks so its definitely justifiable that people dont know that its not lauryns song...p.s. keep scrolling down through a lil sumtin else in there 2..


Killin Me Softly - The Fugees




Killing Me Softly With His Song - Roberta Flack

.......why not throw the jackson 5 version in there 2?!? u feel me? lol...

what is MUSIC...??....

Photobucket
My definition of music....-music is a conversation...its like a conversation between instruments...for example if the guitar is singing a melody,the bass is listening and saying something back,so the drums would put in his 2 cents and so on...they compliment each other and thats what makes it sound so sublime..so when i listen to music im not hearing just 1 thing as a whole, im listening to the conversation the instruments are having or the conversation that the music is having with a writer that helps paint the picture in your mind and makes them feel a certain way to say what they say over music....music has a voice...and it talks to people,and people love music that talks to them in any way..thats why people love or just focus on lyrics kuz its easy to understand the music talking to you...but sometimes some of the best type of music is the ones with no lyrics or the music behinddd the lyrics...espiecially with hip hop artist..the best ones in the game can hear a beat and let it talk to them and approach it and hit the same music nerve the producer was feeling...its beautiful man!..for example...my dude charles hamilton in my opinion (if not the most right now)...hes 1 0f the most talented MUSICIANS in the hip hop game right now..(notice how i didnt say most talented rapper or producer)....because he can make a beat and with just the beat alone..hes talking to you...and hes able to put lyrics over those beats to touch all people with not just his producing but then killing em with the lyrics as well..he has the ability to talk to musicians and hit everyone with lyrics that people can relate to...real talented dude man! (he also playes instruments as well)...so like what made me let yall into my mind to understand my interpretation of music is that i get these questions all the time "how do you learn to play that so quick?"..or "how do you teach yourself to play instruments"..ohh man and cant forget "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU LISTENING TO?!?!" lol...well when i listen to music i dont hear just 1 thing or the song as a whole...i hear the conversation going on within the music and it talks to me..no lie its really like a musical chatroom going on in my head..i hear and listen 2 all aspects of every song....and when you can understand the language of music its such a beautiful thing....your mind opens up to so much music and you find youself unbiased to all types of music...i get the whole point of the mainstream scene or whatever..pretty much it aint about the music (lol) its only about making money even if you know your music sucks and doin stupid dances in the process (cough cough...souja boy and others! lol) that you all are going to look back n laugh at yourselves for lol ...but what happened to the days when hip hop was realllllll AND you can dance and have fun to it...it has no meaning anymore,no voice,its mainly just a mixup of "punchlines" (if u wanna call it that) that has nothing to do with the point of the song,over meaningless beats....smh...i mean i guess each decade has its downfalls...except for the late 60's and the 70's of course those times WERE music! u had people like bob marley,marvin gaye,led zeppelin,otis redding,the beginning of punk,the birth of hip hop...shit! i can go for daysssss,80's R&b hit the scene extremely hard but then you had hair metal rock bands and pop music :-/,90's was also a good decade for all types of music but then you had grunge music and gothic people lol,and oh god the 00's is prolly the worst decade for music..dont get me,wrong early 00's had a good look...but it went downhill to the utmost point...by far lol....
ima fade this out with a bob a marley quote..

"one good thing about music....when it hits you feel no pain...so hit me with musicc!!"-Bob marley



lmaoo wow im buggin! so i write a essay and shyt on the blog...its all good tho..what good is the blog if you cant free your mind right???
