Thank You Oprah

I'm not a fan of the woman, but I agree with 100% of what she said. While I was looking for this video, I came across things like "Should Oprah apologize to Rhianna?" For what? Alot of women blame themselves for a man beating them or treating them real dirty. She said love doesnt hurt. Thats some real shit. The title is actually a line from a movie(The Wood) its sposed to read "Thank You Oprah" haha

Leave it Alone....Please

Yo, thats word to my mother I am so sick of hearing about this lady! What is wrong with American media maaan? When I was a journalism major we basically learned like 7 different things that will always make news. I dont remember all 7 but I do remember this rule that if something bizarre happens it'll make news. For example like a lady having hella kids both times she bares children. Right Right, that was like oh my she has mad kids with no man and no job? thats wild. She used invitro fertilization? Oh thats wild, i'm kind of for and it against it. OK. WE GOT THROUGH THAT PHASE. She got her 15 seconds of fame. BYE BYE. NOOOOPE. We got this chicks 911 call. WHY....THE...FUCK... is this in the news? Why? This aint even journalism. Like this doesnt really fit the 7 rules. I mean maybe the celeb rule but she aint a celeb. She's a mother with mad kids and shit outa luck. Hey, guess what??? She's not the only one in the world.... Annoying yo.

You've Been Cheatin

Baseball's America's past time, so to speak, but not everyone likes it. I played it back in the day so I got a love for it. But I'm starting to change my opinion on it. I mean, how can you respect a sport where the athletes use performance enhancing drugs? Maybe this isnt a big deal, maybe it is, but I think its just shameful to a good sport. And I'm watching ESPN right now and they showed these old interviews of Mark McGuire, Jason Giambi, and Barry Bonds swearing that steroids ddint help them. So why'd you take em then? How can you sit there as a man and say they dont do anything? People look up to these athletes and see them as heros and yet,they basically cheat. And I shouldnt just talk about Baseball because its in other sports and maybe all, but its like every month I gotta hear about someone in the MLB getting caught for using steroids. Now its Alex Rodriguez. Who's Next? I dunno. This is disappointing to me, since I'm an athlete myself. Enjoi the music pick of the week. =]

Music Pick of the Week: BLU.

Imagine, if you will, a complete package. What would be in there? Everything you need right? Well, when I think of Blu. Thats what I think. Lyrics, Flow, Wordplay, Song Writing Ability, Charisma, Delivery, and yes, Swag. A Rapper's Rapper. And to think I thought he'd be a gimmick, every time I saw the cover of Below The Heavens(his album with producer and dj Exile) the best rap album of 2007. I just felt like, hmm, he seems like one of those ppl that are MTV bred, gimmick, he aint real. Thats one of the biggest mistakes I have made in my 20 years on earth. He's the total opposite. He's my favorite rapper alive, I think he has the potential to be one of the greatest of all time, and he's your girls favorite colour. haha As he would say. I think if I ever get to see him live, I'll scream out "YOU'RE MY BOY BLU!!!"

side note: he used the lines from Old School mentioning Blue in a song called My Boy Blue. Look it up. =]

New New

I remember when I was blogging on Properganda and posted something about Ye breaking about with long time girlfriend. Looks like my boy moved on. Took him an whole album and a weird hair cut to do it, but he did it. I think i've seen this chick in a Ludacris video. She looks good, but I think his old girl was cuter(which wins over super fine in my book) Good Luck to him haha

Kanye West VH1 Storytellers

Luckily, I could not sleep last night. And in my slight insomnia, I was able to catch Kanye West performing on VH1 Storytellers. I posted my two favorite songs he did from 808's & Heartbreak: Amazing and Heartless(Say You Will is number 3). Um This was pretty much dope and he had alot to say after these songs. He gets real emotional on Heartless. Kanye is my dude, and I can relate to him more than any celeb(espescially what he says after he performs Amazing) BUT, his hair needs to go haha.
