And just didn't want to get out of bed?
That was me for the past two days. Something is on my mind. Guess the shit it worse than I thought. I just keep thinking about some shit I guess. Sleeping more, but at the same time, waking up to the same reality everyday. I feel as though I'm missing part of myself. Shit is real. I barely write as it is. I have been writing in the same damn book since November. I'm usually done after 2-3 months. Who the fuck knows. I just don't feel complete. I can't explain it. Maybe I need a pick me up. Maybe I need to surround myself with people so I don't feel that way all the time. Only when I'm alone do I even have the time to focus on the bullshit. Just so happens I'm always alone. Who knows... Maybe I'm trippin'. Holla.

Carter 3 Sucks Balls!!!
Yeah, I said it.
Possibly the easiest thing to say. First of all, everyone who waited for this is a loser. A huge LOSER!!!Really, this is what you waited for? And then, nearly a million of you douche bags went out and bought it? As if it was something you had to have. Like it was something good. Like Illmatic or something. Uh, you bought it like people buy bonds. Like this shit was going to get better. It was going to collect interest. It was going to appreciate. You bought it like you would buy something that makes you money. Considering the fact that no rap album I have ever bought has made me money, it's not that important for me to run out, in the middle of a heatwave, to purchase, when I know a week from now, a month from now, a year from now, that shit will still be in stores.
You assholes acted like this was the only chance you would have to purchase this album. When in all actuality, nearly everywhere was overstocked. They anticipated a big turnout, and they didn't want to lose any money. So some store has 215 copies of it... And you're acting like a hurricane is coming and instead of buying supplies and food, you bought a Lil Wayne album. I hope your fucking house gets swept away by the tide. And the roof is torn off just as you pop your shitty little Carter 3 into your player. To those itunes douche bags, I hope your ipod bursts into flames. Shuffle that BITCH!!!!
Is this what we do? Waste money on possibly the most overrated album of the past 20 years? YES, 20 YEARS. I have never heard more people pretending in my life. This album is being dubbed "classic". ARE YOU PEOPLE SMOKING CRACK? Why don't we make Mike Jones' "Who Is Mike Jones" a classic too. And while we're at it, throw in Hurricane Chris, whose fucking logo is a TORNADO!!! Yep, Hip Hop is saved. The bottom feeders are winning. Because that's how it goes. I'm all for rooting the underdog. I am. When everyone loved Jay Z, I was riding for DMX. Even now, I'm riding with DMX, his last few releases have lacked the impact of his first set, but everyone has a rough patch and a couple of misses. But here's the thing: This nigga isn't an underdog. There's no one going against him in a sense. They're all convinced that he is one of the best rappers alive. AND IT'S A LIE!!! Wayne doesn't suck complete balls at rapping, but lately he has. In fact, before he started rapping like a damn text to speech modulator he was okay. Nigga sounds like he smoked to many cigarettes and had a hole put in his throat. Awkward pauses don't make the shit tight, they make it irritating.
Now I already have a blog about how much Lil Wayne sucks. The link for it is: "Defending Hip Hop Part 5" That was indication that I didn't think he was a decent artist at the time. I still don't like him. Nigga is not that impressive. Why do people think he is? Because he raps like he's done nothing but coke for 3 days? Bouncing around in his damn videos looking like a dread locked scarecrow. Shit is worse than bad. It's awful. It's Lil Wayne. But enough of this shit. I just hadn't ranted in a while. No I don't have anything out right now, but that's not because I'm not good, it's because I'm broke. I don't have someone like Brian Williams in my corner, ear, ass, and pocket. No one to pay my studio fees and make sure I record all the music I want. That nigga does. See why he's out releasing albums and I'm not? No, you don't. You think I'm hating. FUCK WHAT YOU THINK!!! And that's the moral of the story. Nighty-night bastards!!!

In the Middle of a Heatwave
Shit, I hate when it's hot.
Yo yo yo!!! It's crazy hot right now. I'm about to pull the dumb move and leave the house at the hottest point of the day, essentially. So I'm about to gear up and get out. Y'all be cool. I'm already
trying. Got a new slogan poppin' off, I think it's a keeper: Hydrate or die!!! LMAO!!! So I'm downing 5 glasses of water before I leave. LOL!!! Sike, why the hell would I do that? Have me rushing to the nearest restroom. Who knows though, I'm beat browsing. Hip Hop don't slow down for some heat. Brave it, and do hard. So that's what I'm going to do. Peace all!!! Read the damn blogs!!!

Retail Sucks Balls!!!
How could I forget that?
World, meeting this morning. I'm gone until around 6:20 PM. And when I get back, I'm still not coming back to the blog. Look out for my "greatest hits" as far as blogs go. You'll see some "Defending Hip Hop". And stay tuned to both the myspace and youtube accounts, they'll be jumping as soon as I can get that damn memory card. Yes world, I need a damn memory card. Hell, I'm waiting on the check. Dummies!!! Anyway, Prince rocks, that's my man. (Figuratively, but oh how I wish.) Stay up, get down. New Power Soul.

50 Years Ago...
Someone more awesome than my damn self was born.
That person was Prince. That's right, Prince. The musical genius who has done enough for 3 generations to enjoy. Just about 30 years in the game professionally and he's still packing arenas. He enjoys doing clubs and after spots after his larger shows for the intimacy of it all. The man that inspires me to write shit that means something. The man I listened to from the time I was a baby, to now. The man who has changed and evolved so much over the years, yet remained the same Prince that many of us love to this day. The man that even said [paraphrasing] "to hell with what people want me to do, I make the music I want to make." Fought his label, his haters, shot films, did soundtracks, dated like a champ.
This man had more posters on people's walls than Jordan in his prime. Don't believe me? Go pop in the DVD of "Romeo Must Die" and notice the big ass "Purple Rain" poster on Aaliyah's wall. You can catch Prince posters in the background on Degrassi. You can catch Prince posters on the most dedicated Prince fans' walls. Even when we didn't know what to call him, we knew he was still the greatest thing to touch music in a long time. And it's still standing. I can't imagine what his creative process is. I would love to see him in action. The man plays damn near every instrument WELL. Not just for personal knowledge of it, but because he wants it on his album. Who gets paid to do what for Prince? Rarely will you see Prince coming out of the pocket unless he's paying his band.
Style is a whole other category for him. There isn't anyone with more style. More unmistakable style at that. You can't say that someone has branded their legacy better than Prince. He didn't force it, it came naturally. With all of the costumes, hairstyles, genres of music, the way he is... That's all just who he is. He's not some guy who gets bored and says "Time to change this". Everyone has noticed the changes he has made. Clothing is now no longer optional. He isn't as out there as he used to be. He's still adorable. Very sweet, and charming beyond compare. Even at 50, he'll take your girl. Don't think so, then she must not be a Prince fan, because I strongly doubt you look anything close to better.
Prince is an icon, a legend, and my hero. I love him for everything he does. Wouldn't change anything about him. Not even his height. Damn it, it's cool. I like his walk. He has a pretty cool bop. It's in rhythm. Like he's thinking of a song or something. Plus the heels are actually providing a little beat for him. 3 decades worth of kick ass music. His life has been an enigma, and a spectacle all in one. I for one, know some things, and then there are other things that are kept away. I dig it. His mystique adds to his sex appeal. Why let them know everything? Then you don't need me anymore?
And you knew you weren't going to get off without hearing about the sex appeal. Even at 50, young girls are diggin' on Prince. I'm 20... Who cares? Prince is still doing the damn thing. The music speaks for itself. He's got a very sexy mind. Even when he's not being overtly sexy, something about him is still screaming it. Maybe that's just what I think though. Prince reading a book would probably be sexy to me. Although it wouldn't be unlike me to find reading sexy. I read... You should too. Flawless beauty and just an overall pretty man. Yeah dammit I said he was pretty. He is. He knows. You know!!! You might not say it, but to say it's not true is a lie.
This could go on forever. My admiration and slight crush on him is just too much. This is a special day to me. 50 years ago my man Prince Rogers Nelson was born, and he is still banging. New Power Generation, New Power Soul. No videos to post, because he said enough that Youtube shit, but I still love him. Just know I did this for him. You rock babe, you won't see this, but hey, I just wanted t say that I still dig you. And you're very hot for 50. You said you found the fountain of youth, I believe you.

Ayo yo, What Up Yo?
Time is running out...
What's goody blog? I'm chillin' and doing my thing. Very bored today. Just want to practice some more with a newer song. It's nice, but I am missing something. Dare I say it, I have to take the swagger up way more than I would wish. I don't rely on swag. I just want people to hear the lyrics. I'm tired of people relying on swagger. It's just not as important as what the fuck I'm saying. I get it in, if you haven't heard me say that enough, it's because my lyrics speak for themselves. It's not a game. When I do what I do, I do it well. You know some people who claim they can rap. Making shit rhyme isn't rapping. It's not. It's rhyming. I can flow. I rhyme well, I spit hard and flow like a monster. You dudes make "songs". You make songs that fucking suck. Y'all make that happy ass, damn near gay sounding record shit. All you want to do is make shit for the club. Were you born in a club? You plan on dying in the club? Say some more shit about the club muh'fucka. See how many people keep buying that shit.
I understand y'all want people to like you and whatnot, but dawg, do you really think playing yourself out is the right approach. I will not kiss ass for fans. You either like me or you don't. I've heard I'm nice with it, but I tend to lose people. People aren't really into everything. If they were, we wouldn't need variety because everyone would be content with the same shit. Luckily, people don't all want to drink the damn Kool Aid. I don't care what they have to do to be more original, but do something. This shit it repetitious and tired. "Make better music" is a good slogan. That's what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to make better music. I want to be complete. As much party shit I could think of, I know there's a ton of shit that hasn't been said before, so I'm pushing myself to not be redundant. Make Better Music!!!

Progress
What's goody??
Check it out: Recorded steadily this month. Got it poppin' and have a couple of fly joints in the stash. Currently working on a follow up track to yet unheard track. See, I have this thing going all weird. Do the work, and keep doing the work, so when it comes time to put more out, you don't have to scramble. Not only that, I have a lot of other stuff trying to happen. Certainly, this is a change in pace for me. I can trust the new direction. It's not really new, but it's different from the direction I've been going in. Hell, it's actually going somewhere. Now that I have a little momentum, I can't lose it. I have to stay on the ball. Man, it's cool planning shit like this. I have a whole lot of stuff trying to get free, but it has to come out at a certain time, and in a certain order. Love, love, love rapping. It's the greatest thing. I don't have too much shit going on in my life, so this is it. I mean, people still suck, but as long as I'm doing music, I could care less.
I want this to be a good year. My 21st birthday is November 2nd. (Save the date... LMAO!!!) It's a Sunday. Nothing will happen more than likely. Hell, I'd love to have a performance that day. That would be awesome. I'm already awesome, but tearing up a show on my birthday beats my regular awesome. In fact, my awesome is better than your awesome. But dig this, I'm trying to test my limits lyrically. So now it's study time. I have to listen to the best albums I own, to get focused. I feel as though I need to recharge a little bit. Plus, doing this I have a chance to listen to some bomb ass music. Hahaha!!! So feel me, because I'm starting with "A Gangster and a Gentleman" by Styles P. Holla!!!
