Right now I’m listening to U-God’s “Soul Dazzle.” When it came on I thought, “That’s it!” and pulled up a fresh post. So here I am, but now, I’m thinking about putting on Raekwon, GZA, ODB and I’m thinking, the Wu needs a week… at least…

And another thing:

“Lil’ Kim is not at home waiting for you, in thong and lip gloss, with Foxy Brown, who is also not at home waiting for you. They do not call you to discuss their reinvented ideas of Black blue collar contemporary feminism in popular culture and its influence on Versace and Prada.”

“It’s been a long time, I shouldn’t have left you without a strong rhyme to step to.”

I have been neglecting my post. There is much else to do… Nonetheless, the grease has not been forgotten.

“Hell no won’t be no won’t be no hell no won’t be no won’t be no Black Male Show shown today. Hell no won’t be no won’t be no show. Hell no, won’t be no show, no show, not today. Hell no, won’t be no, no Black Male Show, hell no won’t be no show. No show. No, not today, hell no. Hell no, won’t be no show. No. No show. Not today. Hell no. Won’t be no show. Not today.”

“Not a hater of the players, I’m more like a coach, or an owner.”

I wish I could say the same, but today, I’m feeling more like a game. Played. Working for The Man is no fun.

This line has been repeating itself all day in the circus of my mind. However, what got me started on Common was a line from his song “New Wave.” I’m going to save that specimen, though, for a series I’m working on… you’ll see.

The needle on my turntable has gone off. It’s kind of a bummer. Anyway:

“I’m the one that’s got to die when it’s time for me to die. So let me live my life the way I want to.”

This is the part where Jimi breaks it down, tells you how it really is. Can you dig it?

Do your thing this weekend.

“You’re only scared to die when you ain’t living right.”

Amen.
