Question

(With all due respect to Justo - Rest in Peace Brother - who I met in 1994 and always respected...)

How in the hell is there a "Mixtape Awards" and Rapid Ric is not nominated in one category?

Dude has been putting it down hard for the past few years but this year in particular has taken it to the next level. Chalie Boy tape, Magno tape, All Flows, etc... Not a dud in the bunch.

Dude actually mixes unlike a good 30% of the folks who have been nominated. Dude gets exclusives that really are exclusives, not just record company leaks.

Everything he does is real and he is killin' it right now. Spinning overseas. DJing for Chamillionaire, Slim Thug and Devin the Dude to name a few. His crew, the Whut it Dew Family are HANDS DOWN the best MC's in the south. Hand's down.

Yet and still dude ain't nominated for nothin'.

And there's only four people in the "Screwed and Chopped" category. Watts, OG Ron C, Ryno and Slice. Now I cut for all four of them. But how you gonna not have DJ-D in there? Street Pharmacy? Big Chance? Come on now man. DJ-D just did the whole Rap-A-Lot catalog it seems AND HE ACTUALLY MIXES!

He's not pushing buttons on a computer.

Man, I honestly don't care about awards show, but duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudes are you insane? I think a special category needs to be created or maybe just a lil acknowledgement needs to be given to Rapid Ric, a young brother who is truly changing the game.

Bang's Birthday Party

Awwwwwww man it went down Saturday night. I rolled with the Wolftown Committee out to the Perfect Rack and checked out one hell of a showcase in celebration of my man Bang's birthday.

ALSO CLICK HERE TO HEAR RAPID RIC AND CHAMILLIONAIRE TAKE OVER THE SEMTEX SHOW ON BBC 1XTRA THIS PAST FRIDAY! THEY KILLED IT. RIC AND CHAM PART IS THE LAST HOUR.

Anyhoo...


The birthday man hisself, BANG!




Charlie Berry and Cl'che


Murder 1, Dope E, K-Rino and Justice (middle)


Grit Boys came on first and killed it. They did like 10 songs it was tight.










Then Gorilla Squad put it down real hard as well.




Great Scott killed it too. First time I have seen him perform, I think.




And King Tutt too. He's no joke.


Finally got a photo of Jai Boo from the Wolftown Committee! They will be here till Friday. If you work in the rap game out here and want to be heard overseas, you need to holler at these folks. They're everywhere.


So nice I had to snap it twice.


King Tutt!




Moufs of the SOuf killed it as well and are starting to make some noise out here for real.








That's a mighty peculiarly placed bottle and I am not sure how it got there.


Cl'che performed like she was in front of 50,000 people at the Astrodome or some shit. Killed it!








And was joined by Dougie D, Showtyme, Charlie Berry and more.


As evidenced by photos such as this. Sort of.





And our headliner for the evening, K-RINO!



Man it's always a pleasure to see K-Rino in concert. His catalog is so deep and he pulls from every album and just slays it. Also I like the way he dresses better than most other rappers. He's way more on my level man. I feel this dude. As you already know.





Bomber jackets and Loc's > diamonds and furs.

And MattSoReal said that. Picture me rollin' like Pac ya bitch. (Pimp C said that, more than once).

Exciting!

Girls Out Loud

IS TONIGHT!!!!

WATCH!!!

10 PM! Channel 5!!


********************

Postnote, Tues 12.43am:

About the height jokes. Firstly, I wasn't really offended, I just thought it wasn't very polite, not for someone I am not on close terms with. My friends make height jokes all the time, and I am fine with that.

Secondly, just because I TEASE MYSELF don't mean I can't take offence at people teasing me. If some fat friend of yours says that she is fat, does it mean you can also call her fat the rest of the day?

You can say your mom's being a bitch, but is it ok for someone you are not even close with to call your mom a bitch too?

If you don't get it, just don't write your nitwit opinion, coz you are stupid. Maybe you should consider not tainting the internet with your worthlessness anymore. Maybe suicide? Just an option. *shrugs*

I don't really care about my being short, I've been like shortest in class since Sec 1, and have long been accustomed to it. So yeah, I really don't see the point of you guys all telling me I am short, because I know it already! And you should know about it too, I blogged about that so many times! Where were you, in Cuba?!

Otherwise, how's the show? Fabulous? I KNOW! Tell me what you think!!!

p/s: Please do not give stupid advice, ie "dun show your teeth so much!!!111" because the show have long been filmed and nothing can be changed now.

Pixel grabs

After the screening of my show (which is on Monday) Mike the capitalist said I should double the pixel ad prices (which, as you can see, I haven't bothered to change because I am that sort of procrastinator), and so he will do...

If you wanna buy any cheap ads I suppose you can do it right now, while the price of 1 small square over in the grid is still $50 SGD.

And that lasts six months too and will link to the website of your choice with the aid of a saucy tagline, unless, of course, the said website is like animal porn or something.

You know, actually, it depends on which animal, coz I might approve some of them. No, horses and dogs are out (what's wrong with you??! Did your uncle love you too much as a kid?), but personally I think if you can find exotic animals such as like white tigers or such... well... I suppose I won't judge you.

Well then, you can pay by paypal. Or bank transfer. Or delivering a pink vertu to me. I'm breezy.

p/s: I think that I am not cutesy enough, so I am gonna add like a girly icon right here:



Doesn't that just increase my sex appeal? Oh yes baby, it does.

p/p/s: I miss my Mike, he smells so nice. =(

More Pics from Damage Control from 14K

Those who have been fortunate enough to pick up the Coughee Brothaz Collectors Edition CD may have noticed these two unique voices booming out the Coughee Pot. 14K - Wood and Quad respectively - are originally from New Mexico. They moved here after a few chance meetings with Devin the Dude, who liked their music so much he invited them to come to Houston and work with the Coughee Brothaz. I wish I had a song to post for you to hear from the new shit, but they won't let me. So check out last weeks Damage Control below and you can hear a jam. Or of course you can check out their MySpace page.

Thanks for the photos guys. I didn't get any of Late of Lil J Xavier (what's up with everyone sleeping on getting photos of Jai Boo? That's just silly!) so add these to the post below in the perpetual blog that is your mind.


14K and Kool Herc


14K with Tricksta and Late of the Wolftown Committee


14K with K-Rino (Wait till you hear the collabo they did, for real you will shit)


Lil J Xavier - the youngest in charge for real with 14K
