Tuesday Night

I'll already be in the area, so why not. Aloe Blacc will be at the Continental Room in Fullerton. It's off Sante Fe, barely walking distance from the rest of the bars at Downtown Fullerton. But sure, see ya.

Stones Throw Event Schedule

Jamel Shabaaz

This book is very popular, A TIME BEFORE CRACK. I saw it at Reserve on Fairfax, and figured it was a good buy. I remember seeing it on the Fruition blog, after I bought it. But now, it's my turn to shed some light. It's full of pictures taken by Jamel Shabazz during the 70's and 80's. The words said about him and his work is that he has the knack for style and that he connects with the people. Now that's respectable.

Here are a few pictures found in the book.

We will never be hood like this.

Or this.

Not again

Unbelievable? Believe it. Bobby Brown found himself in jail again. I take a look at actors, actresses, and other celebrities and realize that everyone fucks up. But caman, learn from your mistakes and STAY OUT OF JAIL. And, I thank God that Whitney broke it off. I'm thrilled for her new shit.

Get on the good foot

Who else but James Brown to be buried in a gold casket, classy til the end. Soon enough though, the hardest working man in show business will be 6 feet deep.

Rest in Peace, James Brown May 3, 1933 – December 25, 2006

More than a feeling

Holy I like this game. It has re-kindled my feel for Rock n' Roll. It's Guitar Hero 2. Catch me at 4AM playing this on my little brothers PS2. To reserve Guitar Hero 3 or not to reserve? That is the question.

In your dreams

And mine. I'm with Red Stripes til' I'm 65. Official beer of Jamaica and Bob Marley, you can't fuck with.

Vegas All-Stars

Maybe I didn't watch the game at the Thomas & Mack Center, but I was less then a mile radius from it. I watched the All-Star game with Bisko & Steph at the Hard Rock Casino nearby. No photos cause I'm lazy son. But fa sho, Kobe! LA! What else?!?!

24 All day !

I give it up to the King as well.

West west ya'll. The All-Star game is some crazy entertainment.

As for this guy, get back to Miami, burn those slot shoes, and learn how to dance.

Tuesday Night

Don't know if you're feelin' her, but damn Colette is tight. She got the grooves for the people. Haha, for real though, some good house for Tuesday night. And finally a break from Downtown Fullerton bars. Halla.

I joined Fat Beats Street Team. And you can say I'm excited for that. It seems chill. Another gateway to not go nuts sitting in my room. Blam

Not another one

Say it ain't so. After their tour, Jurassic 5 might call it a quits. Like a lot of the greats, Fugees, Digable Planets, and A Tribe Called Quest, nothing last forever. Damn, who's next?

It's all good in Pomona. Dj Jspins on the cut, WM as well.
That was us, it's whole other playing field now. Getcha game up !

Untouchable

Damn, check the scene. A little outdated but still fresh. DJ Los & E.Z.B. doin' their thing in the 2005, it's 2007 now. Who will take over the untouchable freshness?

Thursday Evening

Guess who's dropping knowledge in Pomona tonight? You guessed it, this man right here. Performance and a lecture, that's what I'm talking about. Hip-hop at its best, you can believe that. See ya there.

Olala, More VANS 07'

Keith Hufnagel bringing the heat. I never liked Nike so much, but Vans got it goin' on for me. This is one of the reasons.

OJ, You craazy

I can't believe this guy, still on it. The court has ordered him to stop spending the money he's making from his book "If I Did It". I wonder what goes on through his heisman trophy head.
