silly thug... gangs are for kids

2008-06-14T21:51:00.007-05:00

due to the overwhelming presence of gangs in hip hop and general youth culture
i have been compelled to write this

i have had many conversations with so called
bloods & crips
i say “so called” because i have had encounters with the real deal
and these encounters with real and fake have lead me to ask
when did claiming a gang become a fad?
i mean i could be wrong
but i remember being younger and gang affiliation not being something to claim frivolously
now everybody and their cousins wants to chunk the c or throw up the b
its getting ridiculous

the original
bloods & crips
were a gang formed for the purpose of comradery and protection
{no matter how illegal or violent}

i may not have the stats to support this
but when was the last time you saw a group of oppressed kids in the suburbs?
im not saying their soft or anything
but suburbs usually have a pd that responds to 911 calls
unlike many neighborhoods where these gangs were originated

the original
bloods & crips
have specific ways of initiating new members
{blessing, jumping, branding etc.}

when was the last time you were in the suburbs and you asked a kid
“how did you get all those bruises?”
and he responded with
“just got jumped in”
i have had countless run-ins with people who claim to be a
blood or crip
and iam supposed to believe them just because they say so
i have actually met someone who told me they were a blood
why? you ask
because their favorite color was red
wtf!?!?
{sorry but...}
get real my nigga!

i cant necessarily say that gangs are respected
but they are a serious matter
pop culture and ignorance has turned gangs into a joke

just a thought

p.s.
ill have more on the subject later

today's playlist

2008-06-14T02:56:00.002-05:00

ok
its my turn to make a playlist
guess ill go with the first 4 songs that come to mind
{not in order of importance}

and for your listening pleasure
the tape above is an audio player containing all the tracks from today’s list
thank me later

tupac – high til’ i die

first off
great effin song!
the title says enough...
but ill say more
he just speaks on real shilznit

“its the last of the drank, pull over/
cant hear a damn thing sober
cuz im high til’ i die!”

i love it
don’t you?

lion’s den – way it goes

this is a throwback underground track
its by a guy out of the group lion’s den out of dallas
listen to this song!
each verse tells of a different day in his life
and its o so real
the art of storytelling is mastered

check it

jay-z – all i need

just play it
he murdered it too much for me to eff it up with a review

lupe fiasco – hip hop saved my life

im getting
“hip hop saved my life”
tatted on me
foreal foreal
not for play foreal

but this song is also the shilznit
{if you havnt noticed by now i really like that word}
as a rapper on the come up, lupe’s words hit me at the core
if you ever wana make it doing anything
not just rap
this is a great motivational song

guess that wraps up my list
hope you feel the same way i do about these tracks
if not
comment
if so

back for the first time

2008-06-14T01:55:00.003-05:00

this is the first post that i made for zu york city
check it out
{its in my blogs worth mentioning}

ahhhhhh
{sigh of relief}
feels like ive known you guys forever... lame
real talk tho, im back for the first time
guess i should introduce myself
i go by many names
{bc, mr hard work, horse-choker, hr paperstacks, etc.}
but you can call me

.:the one u love to hate:.

why? you ask
because you hate to love me and you love to hate me
probably has something to do with me being the shilznit
but anyways...
im a fly young guy with his head in the clouds
{in multiple senses of the phrase}
ive been told that im “throwed in the head” as well as sarcastic to a fault
but what can you do
ive been judged by many of my peers
you can normally find me chillin or in the studio murderin a track
{check for me}
i guess that’s enough on me for now
stay on the lookout...

ill be back

p.s.
i chose the picture because i think it represents me in so many ways
try to figure out why...
if you can
or be a loser and ask

.:the one u love to hate:.

im back

2008-06-13T04:20:00.011-05:00

ok ok
i know ive been gone for a while
but im back for good this time

tangent
due to the fact that i have no comments
im pretty sure that this doesnt really concern anyone...
yet
wait and see
ill entertain you yet!

but like i was saying...
ive been caught up with being fly and all
and ive pushed the blog to the side
so now ive set out to make some major improvements
{with the help of some friends who you shall soon meet}

its like 4:30
so im gona hit that ol' dusty trail

holla front, one, an all the shilznit

anxiousness

2008-01-16T13:31:00.003-06:00

don't you hate the feeling you get when you're expecting something to happen

but its waaaaaay off schedule
that's my life
even in its simplest form it can be frustrating beyond belief
like a faucet that drips water inconsistently
you expect the next droplet to follow the tempo of the previous
but when it is delayed it makes you anxious
moments like these make me cringe
and bring about a sense of uneasiness
if only i could be content with inconsistency...

first... of many

2008-01-16T01:21:00.001-06:00

how interesting...
the random post from the mind of a person you don't know
and probably never will....
this will most likely never be read by anyone
{save the occasional accident}
what the hell...
im going to post anyway
