Throwback Track: Nice & Slow-Usher

It was between this and "You Make Me Wanna" but I think in the realm of Usher songs, Nice And Slow is forgotten. Don't let this song settle on you too much because it may have you call someone up with some nasty thoughts hahahah. JK.

A Serious Man



This is the first movie review I have written in....a long time. To be honest, I don't even remember the last one I wrote. I liked some movies that came out this year, but A Serious Man is different for me. Why? Because it's the first movie I've seen in awhile that sort of spoke to me on a personal level and dealt with things I feel like I dealt with in my life this year. Often, when bad things and disappointments happen to us(constantly) we go through the motions of asking Why? and trying to figure out "Whats Going On Here?" That line was used through out the movie in different situations, and after thinking about it, I felt like that was really the whole movie. The main character: Larry, seems lost the entire time because bad things keep happening to him. One after the other,Like Murphy's Law. He seeks out 3 rabbi's for advice but it seems like none of them are truly getting what he's going through and eventually is left to figure it out for himself.I'm not going to get into the ending just in case the people reading want to see it(I doubt it)but I think the overall lesson or what you're supposed to get out of it is that you have to role with the punches, and go through the bullshit in life. Most of us see that as a given, but sometimes it's good to be reminded. Another reason why I loved this movie besides the visual aspect, the humor, and a look at a Jewish community =] was the way the Coen Brothers didn't tell all about everything. I notice from my own writing that people don't like to be left in the dark or like things being left up to their imagination. And in two or three Coen Bros movies, they do just that, and I love them for it. Thats art to me. Thats the difference for me. Whether in writing, film, music, whatever, thats the dopeness. But that's just me. I will say, that the movie is not for everyone, but the message is, and I'd think it'd be cool if people saw it. I don't think that will happen though. =]

Kanye West and Spike Jonze: We Were Once A FairyTale

I expected it to be like something HELLA dope but like a lot of things this year, it was disappointing. I did get some laughs out of it tho, because It kinda reminds me of myself on a bad drunk night...
