Don't mess with Texas


So, Texas is thinking about secession from the U.S. if current fiscal policies are not changed. If that means Bush has to obtain a passport to visit the rest of us, I'm fine with that. What's really scary though, is the fact that Chuck Norris may run for President of Texas. Laugh all you want, but if this happens, the U.S could be facing the greatest army in the history of the planet - the army of Chuck.


Honestly though, it's just a publicity stunt by some rich white people. there is no way this would actually happen. It'll be fun to see them try though.





Do you.

Fish sticks


After seeing Kanye get murdered on South Park, I wondered how things would change if Kanye was really homosexual. Personally, I would still listen to his music, still be eagerly anticipating his clothing line, and still be thirsty for a pair of all black Air Yeezys with the glow-in-the-dark sole. I would still think he is a great producer, and I would still be proud that he reps Chicago so hard. I wonder if I would be in the minority or majority on this one.

The hip-hop industry is extremely homophobic, so I know there would be a lot of backlash there. he would be ostracized by all the rappers that could finally say, "I told you so!" Diss records would be released every half hour.The Bossip writers would probably jizz in their pants. His "biggest fans" would denounce their love for all things Kanye. Chicago's rep would take a huge hit in the rap game.

It's ridiculous that so many people would jump at the chance to tear down a successful black man simply becuase he doesn't fit the mold of a typical hood rapper. Like the Clipse said, we let so much slide in hip-hop. Why can't we let Yeezy slide. I mean, Lil Wayne and Baby were on 106 and park, and Wayne said that the only person Baby kisses is him. Where's the outrage? Wayne and Baby kissed each other on the lips, yet go to any hood in America and you will find plenty of people that feel Wayne is the best rapper alive. Wayne has this piercing. Yet when Kanye is in a pic with someone who has on leopard print tights, we work ourselves into a frenzy. Where's the consistency? Is it becuase Kanye is well spoken, middle class, and a great dresser? Should he have sold drugs or gotten a lot of tattoos? Should he be more mysoginistic and more glorifying of activities and behaviors that destroy our communties? I'm not saying Kayne is an angel, but for some reason, a lot of people want him to be gay.

Is probably becuase he'd be easier to accept then. It would be easier on their fragile egos.

Hip-Hop Snobbery


<------- This is true for the most part, but sometimes there is that one song (or 3) that challenges or belief (or carefully crafted facade) of what you consider good music to be.







I will not admit what those songs are to me, but you can...

No Pedo

I was talking with my girlfriend the other day about the pedophilic tendencies present in U.S. culture.

Urban Dictionary defines the phrase "no pedo" as "A phrase stated after a questionable remark intended to clear the sayer of being a pedophile."
ex."in about 3 years, holla at me Miley Cyrus"- Mack Maine - "Every Girl"

Notice the lack of "no pedo..." it's disturbingly absent. Never mind the fact that Miley Cyrus looks like, um...not really sure. But in any case, a grown ass man is insinuating that he is lustily waiting for this girl to get a few years older.

A few years ago, Maxim, and white male America, was thirsty for the Olsen twins to become of age despite the fact that they look like scared monkeys. Now that they are over 21, there is virtually no interest in them as sexual objects.

An estimated 2% of American Catholic priests (914)are pedophiles (CARA).

Toddlers and Tiaras a TLC show about beauty pageants, is basically porno for pedos.

This one too!


There are many, many other examples of this in media, but i want to keep this post kinda short. In closing, we need to look at why we have this obsession with children and why we prefer certain traits and tendencies in older women (that's a whole different monster).

Calling all MC's!


So Mos Def was feeling himself recently and challenged all current rappers to a pay-per-view rap battle. Specifically, he called out Beanie Sigel, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, and Freeway, and a few others. Now in my opinion, I think Mos has a shot at all of them in a freestyle battle, but the problem is, on a stage that big, you know everyone is bringing their best written material.




In a true freestyle battle, these are my top 5 in no particular order:
  • Crooked I
  • Jin
  • Chino XL
  • Rhymefest
  • Eminem

What do you think? Personally, I'd kill 'em all :)

Speedin'


By most accounts I'm your average young male west side raised Chicagoan. I love all things Chicago, I dress kinda fly (cept for at work, randomly), and I love mild sauce lol! But one thing that absolutely drives me mad about Chicago is the driving!

Let me preface this rant by stating that I didn't get my drivers license until about my sophomore year in college (Rutgers). Let me tell you something. Driving in the NY/NJ area is NOTHING compared to driving in the Midwest. Don't get me wrong now, I love the laid back and mellow way of life here, but learning to drive on the East Coast turned me into a monster!

These are the things that irk me the most:

  • People in fast, expensive cars that drive slow
  • People that drive SUVs and slow down to a complete stop before driving over 2" speed bumps.
  • People that don't pull out into the intersection while waiting to make the left turn.
  • Post-winter pot holes
  • People that go 60mph in the far lane on the E-way
  • People eating/drinking/talking/applying make-up while driving.

I love you Chicago, but please learn how to drive!



Do you.
