SLEPT ON: HAV PLENTY


I've heard a great deal of people complain about how there are very few intelligent black comedies so I wonder how many of ya'll have seen Hav Plenty? This independent flick was released in 1997 and has a widely unknown cast of actors. It was written, directed and stars Christopher Scott Cherot who earned a Grand Jury Prize nomination at Sundance. Not bad. Cherot even went on to write for the first season of BET's College Hill. If you haven't seen it RENT IT ASAP.

"guileless/guy-less"

I couldn’t be guileless if I tried
And trust me I do
Most people only get a piece
That’s all most guys want anyways right?
Attention spans too short to listen to what keeps me up at night
So I don’t bother to share
I keep the unspoken words of a million days filed away in notebooks hoping that when I die someone will discover them but in the same thought scared of what they would think when they read it
I’m in no way, shape or form needy however, sometimes, I do enjoy attention
I’m just waiting for the right person to give it to me
And not in vain for a couple minutes because they want some pretty bitch in their presence
I’m talking the real shit
A comfortable silence once in a while
Conversations, epiphanies and pontifications
My words skimming the soft cartilage by passing the beating drum to effectively penetrate the part of the cortex where you dissect rather than dispose
From the soft whispers of unspoken secrets
To the loud wails of frustration
Fearful to fearless
Who will be there?
Not trying to run game just so they can roll the dice and land three spaces closer to my bedroom
Who will be there?
To soothe me with the sanctity of honest attempts to understand my complexity
Who isn’t scared of the deep catacombs of a Scorpio’s mind?
Who isn’t too busy chopping down bushels of pussy to take sometime out to vibe with me?
I’m not asking for blood, sweat or tears
Not even a counselor
I just want some company

Bad Brains

A lot of rappers wanna jump on the "Rockstar" or "punk rock" hype and their fans are following suit but what do ya'll know about Bad Brains? A band who formed in 1977 in Washington D.C. that broke color barriers in the often racist punk rock scene. If you don't i suggest you educate yourselves these dudes are no joke.


Their self-titled album is considered a punk classic with genre anthems such as "pay to cum", "Banned in DC" and "Attitude". They've recorded 8 albums spanning from 1982- 2007 and have influenced everyone from Red Hot Chilli Peppers to Mos Def

Clothing line Supreme even worked with the forefathers of hardcore to create a rather clean collection of tees and shoes which helps me get over the fact that Bad Brains swag is noticeably missing from Hot topic's wall of band tees smh. Not to mention Vans added them to the handful of bands(including greats like Kiss, Iron Maiden, Slayer and The Misfits) worthy of a tribute shoe. Pretty Dope huh?

BLACK LOVE




I REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME I HEARD PRINCE SING “ADORE”
A DESCRIPTION OF LOVE SO DEEP IT SEEMED SHALLOW TO THOSE WHO’D NEVER FELT IT
HE SAID “LOVE IS TOO WEAK TO DEFINE JUST WHAT YOU MEAN TO ME” AND IT SEEMED LIKE HE WAS BULLSHITTING,
EMBELLISHING
I WASN’T HATING
I WAS JUST RELATING TO THE IMAGES I’VE SEEN, PERSONALLY.
NOTHING EVER QUITE AS PROFOUND
PAIN AND BITTERNESS WINNING OVER JOY IN EVERY ROUND
UNTIL THAT NIGHT
OH, THAT GLORIOUS NIGHT WHEN I SAW TWO PAIRS OF DARK BROWN EYES MEET EACHOTHER WITH SUCH UNITY AND
GENTLE UNDERSTANDING AS THEY ENGAGED IN A DANCE
AS ONE
AT LAST
THE VERY DEFINITION OF WHAT I’D BEEN SEARCHING FOR
SOMETHING THAT SEEMED MYTHICAL
SOMETHING I CLAIMED DIDN’T EXIST SINCE I WASN’T ALIVE DURING THE TIME OF MALCOLM AND BETTY OR MARTIN
AND CORETTA
BUT THAT NIGHT ON THE TV
I SAW IT
AND I DIDN’T NEED TO BE IN THE FRONT ROW OR EVEN IN THE BUILDING TO BE BLINDED BY THE DIVINE GLOW OF
BLACK LOVE


I LOVE HER

NO LESBO.

STOP THE MADNESS


I've been noticing this trend specifically on gossip blogs that whenever a female celebrity is spotted with a male one they are not only automatically dating but all the pointed and negative commentary goes towards the female. She must be on the guys jock, the man is a source for money or more fame etc. As a feminist this is starting to trigger my double standard gag reflex. For example, what the hellll would Mya be with Gucci Mane?? Please people stop it. Mya use Gucci Mane for more fame? Now, I know her career has been rocky these past few years, however she's still been more successful throughout the years and has managed to remain in the public eye for about a decade(damn, i feel old...i remember when she first came out lolz). Doesn't Gucci have more reason to wanna be by Mya's side right about now anyways? He JUST got out of jail after all shiiit for all we know he was following ol girl around all night lmaoo. Anywho,Mya has since squashed the rumors that her and Gucci were gettin it in and that they are only working on a collabo. Not that i had any doubts.
Now for this Dream and Christina Milliblonde situation. Everyone wants to point the finger at her saying she's fucking for tracks. I'm not saying this doesn't look suspect seeing as this is the second producer she's been with in a row. However, lets examine this from The Dream's angle shall we. His ex-wife is getting it in with the "best rapper alive" don't you think he could of  been seeking a "good look" to put on his arm? The appearance that he's with C Millie is more than enough. I doubt she'd have to fuck him for a track. Her vixen status is cemented music or no music. Trust me, she's not on the cover of King magazine because "Us against the world" is the most played song in the editor's ipod. "She's the dream of a billion men" as Dream croons in his song "Fancy". And I'm saying The Dream is a hot writer and producer but i'm pretty sure if Christina was fucking for tracks she'd make a beeline straight to Kanyeezy. Tell me I'm lying.

IN RETROSPECT: BABY BOPPER?



AS MUCH AS I TRY TO LEAVE MY CHILDHOOD MEMORIES UNTAINTED(AND DON'T YA'LL ACT LIKE I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT USED TO FUCK W/ BARNEY...NO PUN INTENDED) BUT THE FACT THAT THE ONLY FEMALE DINOSAUR ON THE SHOW IS NAMED "BABY BOP" IS EXTREMELY AND INTENTIONALLY SUGGESTIVE LMAO JUST SAYING....

AND APPARENTLY I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE SINCE WHEN I DECIDED TO LOOK UP CLASSIC PUBLIC OPINION ON URBANDICTIONARY.COM I FOUND THISSSS

"1. baby bop 39 up, 5 down
Barneys Bitch
Barney: baby bop, u satisfy all of my sexual needs in front of terrified children. hence, you are my bitch"

LMFAOO

YEA AND I'M NOT EVEN GOING TO GET INTO POSSIBLE THEORIES AS TO WHY BARNEY'S PATNA IS NAMED BJ....SMH
