Hip-Hop, Art, And Power

I was thinking to myself recently that HH(Hip-Hop)has come a long way in the last twenty yours.

Today,the HH Culture encompasses music,fashion, and even car design. A recent article that I read in a car magazine stated that they were designing cars based on what the Urban buyer wants to see.

So, as the new year approaches I would like to encourage my (HH heads)to take advantage of the power that the have to create and change the world we all live in for the better.

One love, One people, One Nation.

Can't choose your family

Today I will be short and brief. My topic is family.I notice that most of the time they get on your nerves but they can also be help full if you need help.

So as much as you want to get rid of them always remember that you can choose your friends but you can't choose your family.

Vida for the New Year

A picture is worth a thousand words.

"Waiting tor the New New Year"

We made it through christmas and most of us are just relaxing until the New Year.

So, Im going keep this one brief.

In about four days the money will be here and the New Year will be here.

I'm taken the next few days off so I will see you on the first.

Peace.

Times Running Out

X-mas eve. and you still haven't finished that last minute shopping. I'm about to help you out.

What you do is go and get a gift card from someplace like Walgreen or Rite aid. A $25 dollar gift card is fine.

But, a $50 dollar card is better. It depends on how you rollin.

So, from The Woo Report, Happy birthday J. One love.

Sunday, December,23rd 2007. The stores are not as busy as I thought they would be but people are shopping. Most forgetting what the true meaning of Christmas really is.

You may be asking yourself what does Christmas have to do with Hip-Hop. Number one Jesus was black and was born without a pot to cook in.

So, when I hear someone say I don't have any money to buy this or buy that I tend to remind them that Jesus was the son of God and came to earth without much fanfare.

Let your thoughts be towards thanking God for what we do have and in case I don't hear from you Merry Christmas.

Keep your head up.

Simmons In charge

Earlier today I caught an episode of Run's house. The most unforgettable scene was when Russel Simmmons told his nephew JoJo that he is the future of the family.

It is good to see black families with influence use there resources to further secure a future for the whole family.

Baby Phat, Phat Farm, Pastrys and Run Athletics are a few companies in the Simmons empire.

May other black families of influence take heed to the Simmons and allow their offspring to assist in creating continious wealth by grooming them to take the helm of their businesses.

Simple Pimponomics

As we get closer to Christmas and the end of the year I would like to holla at all the hustlers out there keeping their paper straight.

First, let me give you my definition of a hustler. A hustler is a person who uses all of his abilities to create opportunities.

So, now with that being said I would like to give my end of the year shout out to all my people working nine to five, and to all my people at the office asking for supervisors to get their cases right.

Also to my brothers on the grind, in County, doing State time. Simple
Pimponomics dictates that when you hit the bricks get a new hustle and pimp it.

Holla back.

The Soprano's Win

The jury sided with the makers of the Soprano's and decided that they did not owe a New Jersey judge and waiter anything for their input into the making of the show.

Tela Tequila Picks the boys.

Well boys and girls The famed Tela Tequila show has come to an end and she chose to be with a man rather than a woman. Go figure.

You go boy. Personally I thought the show was rigged from the start. But I guess I was wrong. Right.

Holla back.

"Kanye and Lupe Fiasco the new breed."

It seems that every time I turn on the radio I either hear Kanye or Lupe Fiasco. Kanye has the Graduate and Lupe has Superstar.

Girl dancing

Today's contribution to the arts is a homemade video a good friend doing her thing. Holla back.

"Jail Break"

Apparently on Sunday two Union County Jail inmates Jose Espinosa and Otis Blunt escaped from the jail by removing the bricks from their cells with simple tools.

First they removed a brick that separated their cells and then they removed an outside brick and jumped down onto a roof.

After jumping onto the roof they made a leap of faith over the razor sharp wire fence.

It sparks my curiosity how they conceived the plan and put it into action without being detected.

Both escapee's are in jail for violent crimes. Don't be a hero if you come across them let the Police do their job.

It sounds like an inside job to me. Holla back.

"I am Legend"

Will Smith openned his new movie "I am Legend" on Sunday and grossed 76.5 million dollars. At first I thought that the world didn't need to be saved again but Smith's role went beyond the usually buff superhero battling everything and everyone he can.

And by the way in case you didn't recognize this remake from somewhere else. The name of the original movie was "Omega Man." Both actors did a kick ass jobs at making us believe that they were the only men left on earth.

"I am Legend" a must see and "Omega Man" still a classic.

Holla back.

"Pimp My Ride"

Pimp my ride is the best show if you drive a beat up car. But an even better show would be to get a free pimped out ride. The show could be called "Gettin Chosed."

The idea would be to have someone write in and tell the show producers why they feel their friends or relatives should get chosen.

Now they reason I suggested this idea was because on the episode I saw a girl give the boys at Gas a messed up Nissan and replaced it with and Brand new Mustang done in typical Gas style.

Mtv-2 you should work on this idea for me I could use an new pimped out ride.

Holla back.

Spreading the hate

Today I would like to talk about celebrities that I hate the most. The following is my top five list of people and things I hate:

1. Jennifer Lopez-Who became famous because she knows how to dance and shake her big but.
2. Snopp-He can rap but please don't sing.
3. Soldier boy-His raps make no sense and he should stick to ring tones.
4. All people who hate on Pimps.
5. People who can't make up their minds.

Something talk about.

Today in New Jersey the Legislature voted on the death penalty. The vote was cast against leathal injection and for life in prison without parole. The bill is set to be signed or vetoed by the Governor next week. Rumor has it that Governor Corzine will sign the bill and the death penalty will go the way of the Dinosaur in New Jersey.

The Soprano creater David Chase is in court in New Jersey because some one else has claimed that he is the person who created the Soprano saga. The guy happens to be a Judge and his friend who supports his claim Antonio Spirito works in Elizabeth N.J.. Mr. Spirito States in a News interview that he remembers telling Mr. Chase about Little Pussy and Big Pussy Catburgulars from north Jersey.

I have to tell you that Mr. Spirito sounded very credible in his interview.

Holla, back.

Finally, what the hell did keisha Cole do to me she to left me with a cliff hanger ending.
What was the result of the DNA test. Was the man the show tested her father. I guess I wont
know until Next season.

Today short and sweet

IKE TURNER, whose achievements as one of the founding fathers of rock'n'roll were overshadowed by his former wife Tina Turner's claims that he beat her for almost two decades, has died at the age of 76.

His death was announced on Wednesday by Jeanette Bazzell Turner, who married Turner in 1995. She gave no cause of death, but said he had had emphysema.
Turner was best known for discovering Anna Mae Bullock, a teenage singer from Nutbush, Tennessee, whom he renamed Tina Turner. The Ike and Tina Turner Revue recorded a string of hits in the 1960s before the Turners broke up in 1975.

Feel it in the Air.

I was going through my favorite video of Beanie Segal. And was reminded when the song meant the most to me. I had just hit the bricks and went to see my earth. As I got to the window I ducked back because some one else was trying to plant a seed. Then I heard Beanie's "Feel it in the Air" it was as if he spoke to me. Especially close your circle before they hurt you.

But the biggest thing that blew my mind was that at the end of the video, Method Man was an undercover cop.

I didn't see that coming. The moral of the story "there is always something in the air" you just got to look for it.

Holla back.

Ps: Peace to Eldog the eye candy is for you.

Next Friday the Animated Series

I was channel surfing a stopped on a Mtv show called Next Friday the Animated Series. "When condi met Craig."

It opens with Craig and Smokey sitting on the porch talking. Craig's father calls him inside because the remote is broken and Craig has to change the channel.

Craig decides to relocate to the local park thinking his father cant find him there. Then it happens Condiliza Rice walks by with her cousin who happens to be from whats.

Craig and Condi immediately hit it off and he invites Condi to dinner with his family. Condiliza and Craigs family don't get along because Condi is sidity and the family keeps it real about her administration.

Condi takes offense to Craig's family and says she can have them eliminated. I am offended because the show portrays the black male as a thug whose only talent is having none.

Naturally the relationship does not work out and Condilizza returns to her man who has been looking for her.

George W. states at the end that he likes his women like his coffee, strong.

So to sum this up a black woman is good enough for a white man but not good enough for a black man. The stereotype appears to be that strong black women like either black men who are beneath them or white man who are above them.

Holla back.

Michael Vic, Convicted

Michael Vic was convicted of dogfighting and lying about it. He received 23 months.

His lawyer gave an interview on Fox Sports News and said that his client is looking forward to putting everything behind him.

Mike could have received up to five years for his illegal activities.

The fact that he has money probably helped him out a little.

Holla back.

Salt And Peppers Hair

The last episode that I watched of Salt N Pepper was truly scary because I can imagine how many women will purchase the hair that the duo wants to market.

First things first, Peppa comes up with an idea to market hair that can be weaved into a woman's scalp. And to test the product Salt has it glued in her hair. She goes home to her husband who does not like the weave very much.

I have to admit it looked pretty good on Salt. But after a short time is does start to itch. She tires of the scratching her scalp.

Meanwhile, Peppa is trying to get prototypes ready to show Salt before she changes her mind. Salt ultimately gives the project her blessing.

But I'm not sure if I give it mine because in my experience a lot of females who get weaves don't keep them up and they look terrible after a few months.

I know the saying if you can't grow it sew it and if you can't achieve it weave it.

Holla back and let me know how you see it?

Don't forget to watch Salt N Peppa.

The Boondocks Cartoon

The Boondocks is an animated show about a grandfather and his two grandson Hughy and Rielley. They live in the suburbs with their well to do grandfather but strive to keep it hood.

In the episode that I saw was crazy. Riley has a fantasy of being a big time basketball player but can't play for shiznit.

So by now your probably wondering where is he going with this? Well here it is. Riely and Hughy are in their beds because they share a room. Riely tells Hughy that he doesn't like being a loser and Hughy tells him to stop siking hiself out. Hughy calls Riely one more time and tells him you still a bitch. Then he goes to sleep.

At the end of the show an autistic kid helps the other team win the game. This shows Reilley that determination is what wins basketball games not showboating.

Hip-Hop meets the law(Gotti"s battle)

On BET American Gangster the Griff Supreme story had just gone off. And on VH-1 Irv Gotti had just finished recapping how the government came after him for money laundering because of his friendship with Supreme.

Supreme is a drug dealer who moved a lot of drugs in Queens. He is presently incarcerated. The government tried to make us believe that the money used to start Ivr's very successful business venture Murder Inc. And that because Irv knew Supreme, Gotti and his brother should be in jail to.

The government found the Lorenzo brothers not guilty. The Jury acquitted both men because they felt that guilt by association was not enough to convict.

In my opinion the government knew that they wouldn't get a conviction but instead attempted
to shut down Murder Inc.

But fortunately "The Inc." is back on the way up and don't forget to check out Gotti's way on VH-1.

The Hip-Hop Reality Show Review

It will probably become apparent that i don't sleep much, instead I stay up and watch reality shows on channels like MTV. With that being enough said about me. Lets start with Run's House.

Run's House was all that and bag of chips. The show was good because it also had Ja'Rules daughter on as the Diggy's playmate. Diggy at first had two girls, the other being a white girl, who decided to leave early in the day. You could tell that Rev. Run was a little confused because he couldn't tell which girl Diggy liked. So he teased him the rest of the day.

At the end of the show it was obvious to see that Diggy like Ja'Rules daughter the best. Ja picked up his daughter and Rev. Run joked about Ja having to pay for the wedding. Ja said they could split it.

Whats better than one episode of Run's House, more runs house. In this episode the boys run around burping and farting until mom can't take it anymore and hires an etiquette coach. Then the unthinkable happens.

Big brother Russell Simmons shows up at Rev. Run's mansion with his new girlfriend Porchila.
I was struck dumb and blind because it think he could find anyone younger than Kimora. Im gonna need the HHG to holla back on this one. Peace.

The Woo report will miss Pimp C and wishes condolences to his family. And to that mother whose child brought weed to school stay up. They can't keep you locked up forever.
