Baked Ziti.

August 14, 2008

Damn, I haven’t posted a personal entry in a while. This is because I have been playing Madden 09 nonstop since I got it. Don’t you worry. I’ve got some quality posts coming soon..Madden review, Re-Up Gang review, a second Fleshlight review, some porno reviews and an interview I did with Ruck & Rock from Heltah Skeltah. Those two verbally abused me like you wouldn’t imagine.

Now I have to figure out how to slow down Drew Brees and his stupid play action passing.

Interview with Termanology.

August 11, 2008

I did an interview with the pride of Lawrence, Massachusetts on Friday. I was real excited to do this cause I’m a big fan of this cat..even though I’ve only listened to like 4 of his songs. It was my first interview since that wonderful piece I did with J-Zone back in April. I shoulda asked him which craigslist photoshop ad he answered for that album cover. And I should have told him that My shoe game > His shoe game. Anyway, enjoy.. Try to, I mean.. ahaha. Boy, I fucked this one up.

Farhaad: Man this shit is crazy. Two years ago when I was in college I did a mock marketing campaign for the Hood Politics series and shit. Now I’m interviewing you. Wild!

Termanology: Ah man, that’s crazy thanks for the love homie.

(After that awkward ass intro, we got started. What a tool I am.)

Termanology: Who’s this?

Farhaad: This is Farhaad from Crackcesshollywood.com

Termanology: Ah, what’s crackin’ homie? How you doing?

Farhaad: I’m doing real well man, how about yourself?

Termanology: I’m hangin’..

(Three second pause.. I’m thinking “Oh shit, he’s bored already.” I think he was just high though.)

Farhaad: First off, I just wanna apologize. I’m at my mom’s house cause she’s got the long distance and shit. So don’t pay attention if you hear a woman yelling in Spanish. I’m just a broke college student, you know?

Termanology: (Laughs) Yeah, man. It’s all good. (Laughs)

Farhaad: So your debut album Politics As Usual comes out September 30th, on Nature Sounds. I haven’t heard it yet, but after reading the credits, it looks like it’s gonna be a classic. Let me know, yo. What’s with the album?

Termanology: Yeah, you know. The album drops September 30th, it’s called Politics As Usual. The reason why I named it that is because I had a mixtape series before that called Hood Politics. I did like 5 of them with twenty tracks each, and those were like my pre-album before the real thing. This album is the big bang, son. It’s what I’ve been working on for a while, so I’m pretty happy with how it sounds. I think it’s gonna be crazy, and I think it’s what hip-hop needs right now.

Farhaad: That’s word. So, uh, you’ve had the DJ Premier co-sign for a few years now, but what was it like working with people like Easy Mo Bee, The Alchemist, Pete Rock, Large Professor etc.? Were you ever at all intimidated when you were working with them cats?

Termanology: Not really, man. I always thought that I would sound good on that kind of production. So I’m glad that I could hook-up with all those producers. It was like a dream to be able to make it happen. It was most definitely an honor.

Farhaad: You pretty much worked with damn near everyone worth a damn on your debut. Is there anyone you want to work with that you weren’t able to work with on the album?

Termanology: (Laughs) Yeah, for sure! There’s a million people, man. I’m just a big fan of hop-hop, and I can go on all day listing names, but I’m gonna be here all day if I do that. I’m only on my first album, yo!

(I would’ve liked to hear him say Nas, or Kweli or at least anyone, but again, he was probably high.)

Farhaad: Right, right. You gotta pace yourself. You can’t burn out like (insert rapper here.)

Termanology: (Laughs)

Farhaad: Anyway, you’ve been making a buzz. You’re on the scene, people know Term and this and that..what can you tell me about these hip-hop groupies? Did Superhead get at you yet?

Termanology: (Laughs) Hah, nahhhh. I get my share of love around the way, know what I’m sayin’? They’ve seen the video on TV or whatever, and a couple of hoes tried to throw the snatch at the kid but I keep it real cultured. I stay close to home, and I try to keep out of trouble, you feel me?

Farhaad: Not me, I slap dick to hoes worldwide.

(He didn’t think that was funny, or he didn’t hear me. Again, probably high.)

Farhaad: Alright, enough with the hoes. What do you think, if anything, is missing from the current hip-hop scene?

Termanology: Uh, lyrics, originality. But the problem is that everyone wants to be on the radio, and everyone that gets on the radio always sound alike. That’s why I chose my first single to be “How We Rock,” (featuring Bun B.) cause I knew nothing on the radio would sound like it. So if they don’t want to play it, that’s fine with me cause I did what I wanted to do.

Farhaad: Oh, I heard that track. That shit is bangin’ for reallllll. You and Bun sound real nice over Premier’s beats, man.

Termanology: Ah, thanks homie.

Farhaad: So, I know you gotta tour for the album. What do you have planned?

Termanology: Oh, for sure man! I’ll be going on a couple of tours. I don’t know what, when, or where, but I’m gonna try to hit up like all 50 states, know what I mean?

Farhaad: That’s dope. Hopefully you hit L.A. I missed the show last time you were here.

Termanolgy: Ah yeah, I had a good time when I was out there. I chilled with Dilated for like three days, I kicked it with them. I went to Revolution’s crib, kicked it with him. He gave me some dope beats..we got drunk, did a show and killed that shit. I had a good time out there man.

Farhaad: That’s good to hear. You know, I actually have missed you twice now. I was in Toronto during the NXNE festival, and I couldn’t make the show. That was some bullshit too, cause the place I was staying at was on the same street that the venue was at!!

Termanology: Yeah, I had a great time out there. That was really, really dope. People were really excited to see Cormega and Sheek and all that. I got a whole bunch of new fans, so it was real cool.

Farhaad: Word man. So, I’m gonna go ahead and let you do your thing. I know how you rap cats are busy as hell, I mean, look at Diddy’s ass. He has a TV show where he fires everyone.. So you know, I just wanna say thanks for taking the time out and doing this interview man.

Termanology: (Laughs) Yeah, no problem homie. Good lookin’. Politics As Usual available everywhere September 30th, go out and cop it!

Kurious feat. Max B – Back From Up Unda.

August 8, 2008

For some reason, Amalgam Digital is letting Kurious release another album This ’gem’ should be out October 14th, 2008. This is the video from the lead single “Back From Up Unda” featuring Max B. From what I remember, Max B was on “You Got To Love It,” Cam’ron’s diss to Jay-Z. Max B gets the cosign. Kurious does not.

Meet The KnuX.

August 8, 2008

If you like your rappers wearing v-necks and trucker hats, then by all means go ahead and watch the video. Sad.

Project Runway – Holla at your boy.

August 7, 2008

Are you fucking kidding me? This is worse than fags trying to ’steal’ the word fag from us. I just feel bad for every rap star that has ever used “Holla atcha boy!” in a conversation. They gotta see this pizza dropper say it to another fruit. Terrible. I think GLAAD should apologize to Craig Mack, Jadakiss, Busta Rhymes, Big L (R.I.P.), and Cam’ron on behalf of those two homosapiens. Terrible.

Suga Free – Smell My Finger (album review)

August 7, 2008

What the fuck did I just listen to? This is the weirdest Suga Free album to date..it’s also one of the better ones..even though I understand only half of it..somehow. Anyway, I’ll get to the point. He’s done shit the only way he knows how, and has managed to remain fresh for 10+ years. 15+ years if you’re down with the Royal Rock stuff.

Album Art – Hahaha. I don’t usually mention album art, but come on. How could I not talk about this one? Far better than the classic cover he had on The New Testament. It looks like he really is as groomed as he says. I’ll never doubt him again.

Production – I had a discussion with a friend the other day. We came to the conclusion that all everyone ever remembers from Free is the DJ Quik beats he rapped on between 97′ and 00′, so everything that gets submitted to him sounds like that shit. There’s a bunch of no name producers on this shit; Fingaz, Khrys, Mac Truk, and my favorite, 4:34. If Big Saccs sounded like a broke DJ Quik, these guys sound like Big Saccs living in Section 8, on Welfare, and WIC. Speaking of Big Saccs, he’s not even on this album. I don’t know why. Everything he’s done with Suga Free is real hot. That’s unfortunate, but we’ll move on. Some stand out tracks: “The Game don’t Wait,” “Keep up the Bad Work,” “Sana Sana,” and “Damn.”

Lyrics -  I think this is the 6th straight album about pimping, and hoing. He came out of left field on some of the songs, AND MENTIONED THINGS OTHER THAN PROSTITUTION, but for the most part it’s some straight forward Pimps up, Hoes down propaganda. I’d like to get creative write about various topics that Mr. Free covers throughout the album. I left out most of the pimpin’ stuff just cause you already know what the consists of.

Suga Free on Relationships..Don’t set your feelings and your world around a girl like that/ Cause she can give a fuck less about what you feel, jack.. 

Suga Free on Philosophy..It don’t take a damn Rocket Scientist to know this planet is cold/ The Twin Towers came down, and so did Anna Nicole..

Suga Free on Acne..You know them irritating bumps you get sometimes on the tip of your nose?/ She said “uh-huh,”/ I said, “Bitch, you remind me of one of those..”

Suga Free on Politics - ..I can’t stand the sight of Hillary and Obama/ I swear to God, bitch/ If Hillary wins, I’m knockin’ out you and yo’ mama.. 

Suga Free on Politics (part 2)..I ain’t your boy, and I don’t vote, I never got that joke/ Forgive me if I don’t laugh, I got some kids to support..muthafucka..

Suga Free on Children’s songs in Spanish..Sana sana, Colita de rana/ tirate un purito para ti y tu hermana!..

Suga Free on Drug Use - “..Suga Free where them hoes at?”/ “Oh they’re down there in a brown chair watching a frog fuck a dog off some Prozac!”..

Suga Free on Creative Writing..I’m a certified superfly, hair down, maniac, lunatic, can’t tell a lie, collar popper/ green thumb, rap star, purple kush, crystal meth, oxycontin, cocaine, and black tar smoothe talker/ Hard to fuck, good cook, good job, sexy ass GQ, down to blast, down to squabb, break a nail, grow it back/ drive a pretty Cadillac, grab the mic and bust a rap, then count my money, happy with my heat on my lap..

Suga Free on Magic Tricks..Hey baby, I bet I could put you to sleep/ She said “How?”/ I said “Take one more mothafuckin’ thing from me, and step your ass in the street”..

Suga Free on Magic Tricks (part 2) - ..She asked me to give her a little head, right?/ So I went Bada-poof!/ and shrunk her head down to a little bitty bb..

And finally..

Suga Free on Career Advice..You’re a stand up ho, or a fall down bitch/ Remember, bitches fuck for free, but prostitutes get rich/ And if you catch a trick slippin’, you better take that/ That’s just some extras that your ass ain’t gotta make back/ Just think about it/ look at all those niggas you fuckin’ for nothin’/ Fuck for food, for a blunt, you little square ass punk/ Keep up the free fuckin’, oh you’re an opportunist?/ Try that shit with me, and your ass will be in the trauma unit..

Conclusion – So there it is. Another album full of pimp shit, solid knock-off Big Saccs/DJ Quik beats, and lyrics that will keep you laughing for daysss. It’s hard for me to not recommend this album to anyone because I like it so much, but the average joe is still listening to Plies, and Officer Rick Ross. If you happen to find it at your local Best Buy, go ahead and spend the 14 dollars or whatever. But don’t come back here and leave me a fucked up comment cause you don’t understand anything he says.

Bang bang, chitty chitty. Lips, hips, finger tips, ass and titties.

Da Incredible Rap Team album cover.

Hahaha. I absolutely love how terrible it is. People are asking if this is a joke, but it’s totally serious. It’s good to see people still having fun within the industry. Nas needs to take some notes.

The Fleshlight.

August 5, 2008

Sorry, I haven’t been updating lately. I was a little freaked out by being 8 months into 2008. I was also busy planning the immediate future. Shit’s getting crazy! School starts next month, and I switched my Music major to Communications. Holler. Now, onto the real biz: The fleshlight. I feel like an idiot for using only my hand for 10+ years. I bought a Fleshlight a few days ago because I, like most individuals, am a pervert. I don’t know what to say about it except this: If the Fleshlight were seats on an airplane, it’d be in the first class section complete with complimentary OJ, and fluffy pillow.

Last week a friend of mine was talking porno, and we somehow got into the fleshlight discussion, which led to the browsing of the fleshlight website (check out that rhyme). I was intrigued by the customization options- Pink ultra tight asshole, Mocha wonder wave pussy, White super ribbed mouth, Transparent speed bump stealth opening..etc. After watching several of the videos on the website and browsing the user forums, I decided to order one. I got the Pink Super Tight (As a tribute to UGK, no homo) pussy, plus the mandatory water-based overpriced lube.

I waited two days for them to get their shit together and send me my new toy. Then one day I was playing video games, and the FedEx guy showed up at my door with a box. If only he knew what I was going to do in the next thirty minutes with what was inside my box.. Anyway, after I put the whooping on Penn State, I turned off my gaming console, and proceeded to try out this Fleshlight. I tried to jam my cock into it right away, but that didn’t work. I had just showered, and I didn’t feel like getting all messy but again..I’m a sinner. I applied lubricant on the necessary places, and went at it.

First impression: “Whoaaaaaa, sensationss.” At first it felt kinda like a pussy, but then I decided it was more of a blowjob, but then it went back to the pussy feeling…tighter that normal of course. “Jerking off with my hand will never be the same, this is exceptional. I wish I didn’t have to apply so much fucking lube though. Oh wow, this is gonna be some Peter North load.”

After I blew the motherload, I had to clean the device. I’ll save you the details because I know none of you have an iron stomach. Just know that it’s rather simple to clean.

Second Impression: I don’t remember, I was too busy fast-forwarding the porno to the good part. I’m sure it was another positive experience cause I don’t even remember it.

I’ve masturbated with my hand only once since I first used the Fleshlight, and I have to say it’s just not the same anymore. The Fleshlight has spoiled me. Sure it’s a bit pricey, but it’s way worth it. I recommend it to anyone who masturbates as often as I do.
