havent been around for a while...
i was concentrating on my final training to the half marathon.

whats happened in the last little while:
im 2/3s thru my 2010 goal.
ran a 10k! (53min!)
ran my first half marathon! (2h 01min!)
now its time to train hard to the full.

after running the half,
i realized i have to:

2. diet harder.
3. try to adapt to this new lifestyle.

chef and triple six!

recently added raekwon the chef and three six mafia.
ive been listening to only built for cuban linx 1 + 2
and funny three six mafia tracks.
i said 'beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeiiiiiiiiiiiitttttch!'
STRAIGHT COMEDY.
three six mafia, ganksta nip, too short
has always fallen into the 'guilty pleasures' category
in my hip hop catalog.
so much shit talk and ho throwdowns....lol
cant get enough of that stuff.
the main reason i love hip hop over any
other music genre is it can attack ANY subject,
and get to the point.
whether its 'move bitch get out the way!' (ludacris)
or 'the ghetto' (eric b + rakim)
'whats up fat lip' (fat lip)...
man i love this.



on some other ish:
de la soul - keepin the faith
(i never heard this mix, but i like it!)
de la soul feat. redman - oooh

wit the furs!

damn...
im watching funny booty bass vids
and wrestling vids?
what a weird combo.
ive been watching old 80s wrestling matches.
macho man was the shit.
ric flair was the shit.
love all those old fun talks up before matches.
(word to the ultimate warrior, hogan, piper and bobby heenan)

currently listening to:
dj evil dee - beatminerz radio (c'mon kick it!)
cam'ron + vado + dj drama - boss of all bosses 1+2 mixtapes
wu-tang clan - wu-tang forever 2lp
murs + 9th wonder - fornever lp
b.o.b. - the adventures of bobby ray lp

la coka nostra - brand you can trust lp
(on the fence with this one, gotta listen to it more)

i love this beat and music video.

i used to watch the and1 streetball vids.
damn that shit was dope!
(word to hot sauce, skip to my lou, helicopter, professor, escalade....damn!)



and just because....
i love this 'transformers theme' sample.
plus (oscar/academy award winning)

three six mafia has always repped hard as fuck.

cee oh, double em oh, to the en!

got some ass in there!
im way past this on the drawing right now.

gotta post more often damn.
listening to a bunch of miami joints lately.
lots of 'big booty hoes', 'shake that ass bitch' (google/youtube it)
2 live crew, poison clan...classic hilarious stuff

on some other ish:
since guru passed i thought i would
spotlight more emcees/dee jays that
should get thier shine BEFORE they pass.
ill try to find some off beat dudes,
that dont necessarily come off the top of the head.

first up chi-town.
before kanye, there's this producer/rapper
no i.d. (who mentored kanye)
he produced for common with some ill shit.
first vid is
common featuring no i.d. - check the method
id also like to big up common.
common featuring bilal - 6th sense (produced by dj premier)
'this is rap for real... something you feel'
(even though i recently posted some common, fuckit heres more)

favorite common joints:
bitch in yoo (ice cube diss)
i used to love h.e.r.
ressurection
be
the food
soul by the pound
retrospect of life


and heres some other shit found via twitter....
i thought it fits the current subject on my drawing...WORD

a moment of silence.

i found out today that one
of my favorite rappers had passed.

rest in peace
gifted unlimited rhymes universal
aka
guru
aka
keith elam.

that was my high school/college jams.
my favorite guru tracks
dwyck (i wreck the mic like a pimp pimps hoes)
take it personal (never the less cleverness cant impress)
so wassup?! (tear that bitchass up... so wassup!)
the ? remains (i remember hearing that for the first time in japan,

its my japan trip anthem)
b.y.s. (to all you phony ass rappers imma bust your shit)
ex to the next girl (must i stop? naw, i think not)
(check the rep when i speak...) check the technique
(im here with the skillz you missed) you know my steez
man... i could go on and just list the gangstarr catalog.

definitely a top tier emcee
that shaped my musical tastes back in the day.
proud that he was a part of the golden era of rap
which will not be touched.
i repeat posts with gangstarr shit...
but its so ridiculously hot!

peace out guru

ill leave with
gangstarr - in memory of....
gangstarr featuring lil dap + jeru the damaja - i'm the man

'ill kick your can
from here to japan
with force you cant withstand
cause im the muthafuckin' man!'

5000

by myself!

drawing moving along slowly.
ive been inspired to work on it,
but ive been holding back from going wild on it.
im going against what i normally do and freestyle it.
time to style on it, level up the game
and breathe easy.

ran 15k on sunday!
after that it was a wrap.
or at least it should have been.
i walked around for 2-3 hours,
then finally sat down
and the feet were in a world of hurt.
good thing this is a lighter week in running woot!

got a ticket to epmd!!!!
cant wait to see em again!
heres 2 harder to find joints
epmd - give the people (jeep/ pete rock mix)
(i never heard this version til this week)
epmd - brothers from l.i. (b-side to crossover)



listening to:
murs + 9th wonder - fornever lp (hotness)
cam'ron + dj drama + vado - boss of all bosses 2
little brother - leftback lp
alicia keys - the element of freedom lp

the new little brother is HOT!
'even when im by myself'

9th wonder/khrysis is killin' it on all fronts!
its like where kanye should have gone,
but turned to the darkside (with autotune wackness).
