Thanks to Ms. Muthafuckin’ Me (and her randomassness) – I found this on Google. Yes, this site is known for fuckery so type it into Google and you get a reference for this post.

Back in the ’90s, Chris Wallace made the Jesus Piece a rapper must have. That piece above? Sick.

Resolute These
…go farther
Go further, go harder
Is that not why we came?
And if not, then why bother?
- Shawn Corey, “Mr. Carter” Tha Carter III
In high school, I hated writing about resolutions because they never came through (i.e. I failed to commit to them). Same for college too. So therefore, I’m only telling myself one damn thing going into the New Year – work until you’re satisfied, then work more.
Hey Young World
Make your own money… hey, be proud that’s yours
You know why, cause that’s a man… that’s brains no spite
Stayin out of trouble… when it comes in sight
And a man never loses a fight… in God’s sight
Stupidity Is Eternal
Okay, 2009 has to be the unofficial year of the terrible tattoos. There was the stars all over the face, athletes getting presidents, an obsessed Nicki Minaj fan, not to mention Birdman giving himself a star and some “Boosie Luv” being dished out.
But that one above all of those? Fail in the highest degree. I mean, to get a club anthem inked on you like “Fuck bitches, get money” but for a song that won’t be relevant in about two and a half months when somebody else makes another “got it together woman anthem with a little b*tch thrown in”, decision making lacked heavily in this predicament. I mean, at thirty-seven do you really expect to be calling yourself boardroom material with this? *face palm*

Should Have Used A #DM
I swear Twitter and Facebook can keep you entertained for the longest. The fact that some folks don’t know the difference between a message and a status only solidifies the fact that the social networking thing isn’t for everybody. Case in point – Jesus Shuttlesworth getting his Twitter “hacked” supposedly with that dirty little “sexting” post you see above.
Of course, the obvious action was taken – kill the one account, switch to another one. Just know damn well you can’t make that same “mistake” twice.
For Whatever Is My Mood…
Can be summed up by this album. I dunno, whenever I feel like I’m in transition from something I either go jazz or folk rock. Or John Mayer. Then I hear of all the transitioning around me and the most I can do is either raise an eyebrow or shrug. Make the most of what you can do I guess.
Sunday Night Sexy: Tell Me Edition
#2010predictions – Dru Hill will make an unsuccessful comeback and the world will not even care.
Nike Air Force 1 “DJ Premier”
Hmm, dunno how I feel about these. Will I ever drop the money for them? Probably not. But knowing that regular day average joes are having PE’s of shoes must be enticing to some.
Michael Jackson – This It It (Video)
Props to Spike Lee for having the vision to direct this. Still feels weird knowing that Michael is gone and it was bar none the biggest news story not attached to Barack Obama’s name. Sigh.
Clap For ‘Em: 40Acres
The Lost Boxing Day Gift.
Around 11:45 PM on December 26th, an idea popped in the head of mine. That I needed yet another XBOX 360 controller because the charge pack wouldn’t do jack diddly squat. Damn you Microsoft!
Hot Tub Time Machine (Trailer)
You had me at Craig Robinson.

The Gifts Yo, Rd. 1
Title aside, it might be the only round ala a old Mike Tyson fight. Pictured are three thermals (one black, one white, one beige), a cologne set from Curve, some underwear & a belt. Not pictured are the pair of Levi’s (thank God they’re regular fit instead of skinny) and some slippers.
Throwback Friday: Santa Claus….
In the spirit of Christmas on a Friday, I’m jamming these two joints ALL. DAMN. DAY.
Carlitta Durand – The Doug & Patty EP (freEP)
December 25th? Free music day. Up first is Little Brother/Justice League co-conspirator Carlitta Durand going for dolo with an EP aimed as a tribute to one of the greatest cartoons of my childhood. Yes, Douglas Yancey Funny and his profession of love to one Patty Mayonnaise.
Tracklist x Link after the jump.
It’s Crimmuh Time.
And I can hardly effin’ sleep. Besides dealing with my pops in a drunken state (I adore him to death, let’s not get it twisted), I’ve been checking out USA watching a movie marathon of 2Fast 2Furious and Bad Boys II. Even had to shut off the phone and TweetDeck to not see Christmas txt/twits/statuses. We get it, it’s the biggest holiday not named your birthday or New Years. At least wait til’ a brotha done opened up all his gift(s). Why the hell do I keep laughing every time the kid from “A Christmas Story” gets kicked down the slide?
…where the hell are them cookies?
Reflection Eternal – Just Begun (featuring Jay Electronica, J. Cole & Mos Def)
Two days ago, the radio rip courtesy of Just Blaze was released to the masses and now the RE duo themselves release the CDQ for all you boys and girls. Their new album Revolutions Per Minute drops in the same month as Sade’s Soldier of Love. Man, this has been a good month for music.

Amerie – More Than Love (featuring Fabolous) [Video]
Probably my favorite song off of her latest R&B release from Def Jam, even if it carries that damn Summer Madness sample. Love & War in stores now.
