Russian Dude with AA-12 Fully Automatic Shotgun!!!



So here's the thing... ever since i saw this dude's video of getting pepper sprayed in the face, i've been a big fan--but i didn't realize how extensive his catalog of videos was. In truth, i've only watched this one without sound--but i'm sure he only says brilliant shit.

Unprecedented: Canibus Makes a Diss Track About Other Artists

Dude, I think Canibus is a good rapper. When I listen to him I'm usually entertained and relatively impressed, and that has been true since 4,3,2,1 and 2nd Round Knockout.

BUT

The dude is just forever angry. He's like the Mad Rapper from that Biggie Skit off Life After Death. You might not have known this, but he actually recently wen through the trouble of creating like a six minute diss song about Primo! He was mad at Preem cause he had said something slightly untoward about him, but it really wasn't even that negative and certainly not worth a six minute track.

Also, that's DJ fucking Premier he's talking about. I'm afraid he really shouldn't try to A) go at a legend or B) start rap beef with a producer. What's Preem supposed to do? Make a diss beat?

Anyhow, i haven't listened to this little cut yet, but i will when i'm off work.

Small Business Owners Acknowledge that the Concept of Tax Breaks Stimulating Their Businesses is a Fantasy


"We are fed by our consumers, not by our tax breaks," says Rick Poore, owner of Designwear, Inc., a screen-printing business based in Lincoln, Neb. "If you drive more people to my business, I will hire more people. It's as simple as that. If you give me a tax break, I'll just take the wife to the Bahamas."

AZ - Games (Unreleased Version)

Listen to AZ

See I just like AZ. I mean, I wouldn't be surprised to hear people say that this shit is corny, but that's ok.

Interview goes poorly, with ensuing hilarity

so this guy i guess woke up without his testicles one day... and the interviewer is asking him about that--but he can't keep a straight face... the real gem is the poor victim's face as the interviewer laughs..

smartface

shark pool, no teeth, no alibi,
smarter than they think they are,
artists can't build satellites,
so special, meat and two vegetables,
all for naught, caught up on the pedestal.

monkey see sea horses and ride 'em,
build a bird and fly him
bison blood horizon.
catch the chemical drift
of a culture taking the piss,
into a lake of shit,
matrices of bacon bits.

Nas - You Can't Stop Us Now

But you tell me...

RZA as Bobby Digital "You Can't Stop Me Now"


So it's come to my attention that both Nas and RZA basically killed this shit. But man, no bias for real, but i think RZA got it...

Not Exactly a Chill Vacation

A colleague of mine sent these videos to me.  Watch the one directly below first and try to figure out what the hell is going on... The next video down puts it into better perspective.



Ok, watched it?

Cost Of Tax Cuts For America's Rich Exceeds Value Of Budget Cuts

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/04/18/tax-cuts-rich_n_848933.html
Maybe we can eliminate further government programs in order to give the wealthiest Americans more tax cuts.  That's clearly the way forward for us all.

Moderation is key

Crazy Norwegians!

Veras

Restaurant review number one begins at Vera's. A humble Ballard eatery on 22nd ave. The
Coffee is always ready, although folgers. And the Benedict, although not this authors favorite, is an easy choice to make for dealing with Sunday morning drunkenness. Best part about veras:  Never a line. With all the hachi tachi spots popping up around b town it's nice to have a guarantee that you will be seated and served almost immediately. When in need of a quick grub down head to Bergen Place and look west. Sobering up on a Denver omelette right now!

Prodigy Discusses The State Of Mobb Deep's Relationship With Nas

Prodigy Discusses The State Of Mobb Deep's Relationship With Nas

Nas and Mobb Deep were always good together, since The Infamous. This article doesn't do much to explain their beef or reconciliation, but it's good to know that they're making music together again. With that said, the recent cut (Dogg Shit) didn't really do it for me--but Nas' verse was pretty tight...

What a weird situation.  Sword of a Giant likes both A Tribe Called Quest AND Michael Rapaport.  Hopefully they can  overcome this turmoil so we can watch the film with clear conscious.
