Throwback Thursday: Diddy Bop Pt. II

Closed a deal, earned a sizable stack today. Feels good.
When I feel good, I have the urge to get Jiggy. Who better to assist than Diddy Puff Daddy?
Watching this video that features that baaad shorty in the bed & uhh...Loon, made me realize Mr. Shiny Suit Man can't let noooobody shine....at least not solo.
If you're planning on being a BadBoy artist, & you want some sort of longevity, you must understand the simple rule that Mr. Combs is your boss, investor & competition. How many scenes of this vid is dude in?
Maybe he should take the Akon - Lady Gaga route & fall the eff back completely. Maybe people would give a **** about (insert BadBoy Artist here, like Cassie, Dirty Money, Janell Monae, etc) if you weren't hogging the spotlight. Don't remember him doing it?
Him really believing he's a talented dancer is rubbing off on me, as I'm staring at this knot of reds with a splash of a few greens; bouncing my shoulders uncontrollably.
Ima probably Diddy Bop until I'm out of $$$$ from socks, Henny & cheap thrills.

The Kid Famous - I Wanna Know Your Name (SUPERVICE REMIX)

Great cameos, from the night that was Jeni from Flow93.5's website release party. The vibe was amazing that night, & had an all star line up of attendees, as you can clearly see in this video. Damn near every rapper in the GTA was in the building.
Look out for this joint to get heavy spins on your radio station, & if I don’t see MuchMusic picking it up, I'm picketing.
Shouts to Breazie for convincing me to go out on a Wednesday night, it was Networking 101.
I remember meeting Famous formally that night, him performing, but there's a lot after that I don’t remember.
Shouts to Dr. Claw for my late X-Mas gift.
She bought me the bar.

No stairs were injured that night.

Lifestyle Branding: BAPE

Another push into the foray of Lifestyle products and branding, BAPE has recently release chopsticks.

Chopsticks, man.
Nuff Said.

Slapdash Files: Epic Failure

To all the lovely ladies that say n*ggas are single not on their own accord, but because they dont kneel to cats; I present to you...

Your Knight In Shining Armour.

Enjoy Idiots.

Tu like Two; Pac like Pockets

Although long gone, a mainstay in my cd changer: Tupac Shakur, appears in this video interview from MTV that was never aired, circa 1992.
As you'll see, he goes deep into politics & equality, his personal memories of Christmas, & the lack of a father.
I think some of us can relate to morsels of his experiences or ideals, in one way or another.

I know I can.

Lloyd Banks - Beamer Benz or Bentley (ft. J.Santana)

Find more videos like this on ThisIs50.com
Not really gonna comment on this video, but here's a little insight.
I only have about 4-5 things to say.

Flamesssssss.
The women in this video are bananas.
Banks' diagonal bubble down vest is retarded. I want it.
Juelz is far too excited, must be recalling the feeling of being on a hit song.
The women in this video are bananas.


That is all.

Joell Ortiz x Jim Jones: Nissan, Honda, Chevy

If Joell Ortiz didn't come SO proper on this, I would be ripping this to pieces.
Since when do n*ggas take other n*ggas songs, and RUN with them? *ahem*ROSCOE DASH*ahem*
Oh yea... since 50 remixed everyone circa 2002 & prior and sounded better. Damn.

Regardless, Lloyd Banks' orginal "Beamer Benz or Bentley" sh*ts on this version.
Stay tuned for those visuals.

Today's Special: Patton Pending.

Spent damn near all day Saturday with my homegirl CeeCee Bolton, & she got a message from her "dude" asking "What wouldn't I do for you?"
Over a lavish dinner at Montfort's Oakville location that included Calamari, Coconut Shrimp & Mediterraian Chicken Salad, she asked me the question, as in, 'how should I answer him?'
As the reigning King of Deflection, I answered to her, "Jump infront of a speeding bus".
Dude responded, "Good to know you have a sense of humour".
I say that to say this:
Paula Patton is damn near perfect, & has been with Robin Thicke for quite some time. After hearing about his performance & finally seeing footage of his "dance moves" at the Alicia Keys concert, it makes me wonder.

How in the EFF did he bag this chick?This begs the question: What wouldn't I do for Paula Patton?

Well for starters, I would not prance about stage night in, night out, all over North America, like a flaming sodomite.

The End.

Style By Drew - PULSE (Pt. II)

Took me a couple seconds to get into it, but when I did... Captivating .
Get familiar with this dude, Style.By.Drew.
Do so here & here.

New home for the New Jersey Nets...ahem... I mean the Brooklyn Nets.BROOOOOOOOOKLYN.

Slapdash Files: Apocalypse Now, or in a Few...

I love Chinese people. I got a lot of 'em as friends, but sometimes I have a hard time buying into all the fables and fallacies they adopt & beleive in. From Godzilla to Mothra to Dungeons & Dragons...alright, I got carried away. The above video is a spotlight on the Oarfish, a massive toothless monstrosity, whose body stretches approx 15meters. First sighted of the coast of Bermuda in 1860, these dudes kick it out of sight, dwelling approximately 1000 feet below water level. It is immensely rare to see them, as the only live one caught on camera was in California in the video above.
Why am I posting about Chinese "Sea Serpents"? Well, since November 2009, almost 20 have washed up on the shore of Japan, spooking the hell outta my vertically challenged brethren. Legend has it that whenever this starts happening, it means there is massive earthquakes on the way. This makes sense, cause think about if underwater volcanoes are poppin' off thousands of feet below sea level, all that seismic activity would disrupt their habitat. The Japanese are spooked because seismic activity is most prevalent in their country. Too many signs indicating destruction & demise on the horizon.
I need copious amounts of food & water, 3 bad b*tches for my rotation, & a spaceship so I can be Swayze before sh*t hits the fan on this planet.

Ladies, apply within the comments section...
