Black Woman Review

As with all things a person can't have, the notion of Kimora Lee catch-snacking makes her more attractive.

Busta Rhymes Speaks on dead body guard.

"Our condolences and prayers go out to his family..."

That seems familiar. Remember Busta's bodyguard, Israel Ramirez, who was shot back in '06?
Busta said,"...my condolences to the Ramirez family during this time..."

Tiger Wood's caddy earns 1 million a year carrying clubs & bullying the press. How much could Busta pay for the next fellow to watch his back (given, only one of the bodyguards were OTJ)?

I suspect he'll pay relative little since the help wanted ad will probably look this way:

Position: Bodyguard.

Requirements: Stupid-Idiot
Compensation: Condolences.
Call: 1-800-GET-DEAD

Lil Wayne, "Fuck Mixtape DJs!" as he takes a shit on the mix tape industry/game. DJ Doo Wop takes a shit back on him.

Some say it was syrup. Some say it was "weed x20" that made him flip out. It was most probably coke & a big ego. That underground game takes some responsibility for Wayne's success via Cash Money's beginnings & will probably contribute to his ultimate demise. It can happen (see:Britney Spears).

Dude, where's my Detroit Rap song with tricked out bag pipes beat? DirtyMitten.com's will the thrill blogs Paradime's "Spill at Will".

Irish Eyes:

The lifespan on second chances is at least shortly more than one year. Nathaniel Abraham is locked up again.

Another Jay Smooth gem found surfing archives at illdoctrine.com's archives.

"...makes me ponder how Black music's relationship with money has changed between then and now..."--Jay Smooth

Indeed. Money completes Hip Hop's holy trinity with Sex & Violence.

There's always a balance between the anger and humor a stupid person's behavior makes possible. Surely, most everyone has watched the video with the girl verbally declaring war on an old lady.

Byron Crawford's blog, having a seemingly endless supply of humor-laced commentary, didn't fail to keep the balance for me by sharing this video:

Obie Trice & some Cleveland versus Detroit footage

Updates: Added featured video to the featured video tab in the sidebar & added random Detroit videos in the sidebar that are accessible from the menu by clicking "videos".

Lately I've been checking out some female Detroit rappers and found this group. I thought it was cute enough to share.

Al Nuke, Al Wissam, & now Al Profit. About Profit's new movie profiling Detroit:

Jay Williams, 29, a West Bloomfield resident who grew up in Detroit, bought the film shortly after it was released. " 'Murder City' is a great depiction of Detroit without sugarcoating it. It's Detroit raw and uncut, that's actually how Detroit really is," he says. "I come from the late '80s dope era, and because I used to be in the streets, I can relate to it a lot. It's almost to the point to where it's sad, but that's life, and that's unfortunate, and this is place where a lot of us grow up."

Rap Idol? OMGWTF?

What is a CD peddler? From my experience, it can be anyone who makes rhymes in order to sell CDs. Sincere (and good) artists make music because the song won't stay inside them. And, while that's all super idealistic, it's my story & I'm sticking to it. From my experience, CD peddlers saturate the underground & local markets with so much bullshit rap music.
A rapper (and I'm being liberal with the term here) said, "...my ass fat, I get it from my moma, niggas want to eat it like Jeffrey Dahmer...".

Here are the rules for female cd peddlers:

No more shiny tops
No more oversized sunglasses
No more mentioning fashion designers whose product you don't own

I can't go on.

People who are still looking for Eminem's brother myspace page. Good luck to him.

Last night I watched busta rhyme & linkin park's video on youtube. A few things occurred to me:

Busta's first four lines are wack as hell
Mike Shinoda's rhymes are better than Busta's (???!!!???)
Busta look's like Linkin Park's hype man

Even though this is a bad ass track, I wish Busta would stick to rapping those indiscernible speed-hype lyrics.

Mr. Duey, a southgate teacher & rapper making news. He's probably the wackest unwack rapper around. Good looks from DJ Duey. Seriously, the video is a good look. It's just that, well, he's not kicking the game to kids like this:

Bobby Brown's 'son' landon brown might be Ralph Tresvant's son & other WTF lulz.

Another three reasons I love blogging & the internet. Three great blog interviews with the industry:

Musical Essence w/Rik Cordero
Detroit Rap.com w/Guilty Simpson
The Eminem Blog links to Wake Up Show w/Saul Williams

You (never) know what imeem searches for Detroit Rap will turn up.

Big herks lyrics on this track sting something like a bazooka. I love music so gritty, listening to it feels like eating chunks of sidewalk.
