Spreadin the real: Mark Schlereth goin off bout the NFL

I have to say that the head hunting hits (where tacklers lead with their head to hit the offensive player in the head) that players should be fined...but otherwise they shouldn't...this past weekend we saw a lot of hard hits in NFL games...perhaps least hardest hits were from James Harrison of the Pittsburgh Steelers...he got fined $75,000 for legal hits (he didn't get flagged for in the game)...he's so upset that he's stated he may retire because of the rules the NFL are instituting and enforcing...in my opinion hits are a part of the game and the NFL is on some bullshit for their fining of Harrison...here's Mark Schlereth on ESPN goin off on the NFL...peep it

Spreadin the REAL real: Young Guru on artists vs. record labels

I'm very pleased that someone in the game is speakin the truth about what a up and coming artists should do not become a slave to the record company...and that's basically to stay independent and not sign to a major record label...i always thought it was some backwards shit what record labels do...the artist writes the song, records the song and then performs the song but the labels keep all the publishing and rights to the song...what kind of legal slavery ish is that...peep the legendary Young Guru speaking about the industry and its future...

Spreadin the real: Erykah Badu speaks truth

I've always thought for the last 2 to 3 years these songs are all sounding like some European techno shit...and most of it has, David Guetta has produced a lot of recent hits like Akon - Sexy Bitch and Flo Rida - Club can't hold me down...its a place for it but damn its seems that's all you hear from R&B and Hip Hop...i understand why R&B may be flooded with these type of beats but damn the Hip Hop game is also...I'm just sayin....apparently Ms. Badu has similar thoughts....here's her quote from somewhere:

How y’all gone stand by and let our music turn into pop techno cornball ass music. We don’t own our music no more. Come to think of it, did we EVER own it? when I say own our music , I’m not talkin bout the artist I’m talkin bout the people … let me be quiet. I wanna hear from the young people? easy for me to complain about this techno-pop cause i have a taste for something else. but how do u feel? These rappers ought to be shame of they damn selves, I’m talkin bout the mc’ s rappin over this pop techno music. I believe in pimpin the system buy got DAMN! not like this. #pop-technosongs. I like the idea of no distinction in race when it comes 2 music, but SOULkeepers, U dont give up the boom bip and the hump 4 the payday. I love house and techno as a side dish .But now it’s served as the main course AND that’s ALL u gone get. like chittlins in the back house. I love music PERIOD. just not ready to say goodbye to the boom bip and the hump .. kinda painful for my generation to see. just strange 2me. Yes, no1 wants 2B poor again. artist have2 sacrifice integrity of the music sometimes 2 make ends meet. this is understood.but gotDAMN now. if you’ve never tasted good p*ssy your satisfied with ass hole. (that’s terrible ain’t it .) lol

Deion Sanders aka Primetime aka Neon Deion #34!?

The most entertaining, athletic and feared cornerback/kick returner in NFL history has got to be Deion Sanders...absolutely entertaining to watch, I was pleased to see "Primetime" join the 'Boys back in 95 to help Dallas capture the 3rd title in the 90's...I remember watching games where the opposition would not even throw in his direction...I mean literally they would not throw in his direction because of his blanket coverage and potential for a "pick 6"...here's a clip of Primetime upset for being selected as the 34th best player in NFL history...he's a little ticked off at his ranking and should be...he should at least be in the top 20, he was the epitome of the shutdown corner...peep and be entertained

Air Jordan XIII RErerelease + a little disgust

Now i didn't get these when they first released (1998, in high school with no money), i didn't get em when they rereleased (2005, didn't have my money right) but imma make sure and cop on black Friday of this year when the come back out for $160 ($10 over 2005 price)...i'm mad about that because Jordan Brand is using inferior materials from their previous OG and 1st retro models from 00-05...you can tell clearly because I just bought the Space Jam 11's in December of 09 and i hear squeaking in the sole already (i've only worn em 10 times at the most)...it ticks me off when sell for so much but don't give you the quality that they used to give you (Nike/Jordan Brand that is)...check this tidbit of info i got from Sneaker Files blog:

November 26th, Black Friday, the ‘Flint’ Air Jordan XIII Retro will once again be made available to purchase. Retail price is set at $160… yes, $160. The OG and 2005 Retro retailed at $150, and while it’s only a $10 increase, one cannot be too happy about the fact that cheaper materials and poor craftsmanship is somehow worth the price hike.

I was fortunate enough to see a product order sheet from one major sneaker retailer a few months ago. They purchased a pair of kicks (bulk order of course) that retailed at $150 for about $74 per pair… profit is about half the shoes overall retail value for said retailer, approximately $76 profit on every pair sold for retail value . That means that Jordan Brand should be making at least half of the wholesale price in profit as well, making the total cost to produce a finished product at about $37 per pair.

P.S. - that really grinds my gears

Tip of the Week #14: If you can't sing then no youtube

I guess people are trying to get famous or recognized anyway they can in the chaotic music industry...you have Justin Bieber, the kid that sang and played Lady Gaga's "Alejandro" on piano, Alexis Jordan (signed to RocNation, wikipedia her) and Sean Kingston (discovered from Myspace) who have talent and were discovered...but they are thousands, damn near millions of people that sing to their webcam and upload it to youtube that should NOT be doing it...

I don't know if they think they have talent or they're just doing it just to be seen...one thing I do know is that most of them are terrible and should not upload anything on youtube unless you wanna get laughed at...here's a tip for you, if you can't sing and don't wanna get embarrassed don't upload yourself singing on youtube...here's the comedic pleasure for ya...peep it

Random Rant vol. 28: Common - Be album circa 2005

You know when you talk to your parents or aunts & uncles they tell you that the music they listen to is better than what we listen to...well I knew I would eventually be that person that would say that to people younger than me but I didn't know it would happen this fast...i'm only 28 years old and I say that the music (hip hop music I'm speaking of) of the 90's and early early 00's was better than the mainstream stuff now...

they also say that an artist's album had to be good from start to finish because there was no such thing as tracking or fast forwarding an album (even though if you had vinyl you could change a song by picking up the needle and moving it)...you couldn't fast forward a 8-track cassette (my dad still has one [not in use though] and he actually owns an 8-track adapter for a cassette car stereo, damn that's throwback) so all the content had to be good, no filler songs...now that is true because even in the 90's hip hop artists had filler songs on albums...

but I wanna speak about an album that came out in 2005 that's a classic album for the artist and genre...that album is Common's "Be"...from start to finish the songs are impactful, full of lyrics, artistry and originality...produced mainly by KanYe West, Common went back to his soulful hip hop roots (unlike the eclectic "Electric Circus" album that I still think was dope)...you can actually listen to the album all the way through without tracking one song (a rare event in this era of the music industry)...if you haven't listened to it in a while I recommend you go back in the archives and give it another listen...its dope ish

Random Rant vol. 27: The hand you're dealt

As my birthday approaches in less than one month (i'll be one year closer to 30) I have learned a couple things in my young life...like people are born with incredible talents, some people are genuine down right a**holes, there is genuine evil and kindness in the world, money controls and dictates everything in the world (well I know at least in the United States) and most people have to deal with things simply because it was the hand they were dealt...its a cliched phrase but I actually whole-heartedly believe this...

I've met people that do nothing but good, kind to people and try to walk the 'right' path in life but things never quite work out the way it should...for example i noticed a person that goes the extra mile for others while shorting themselves short on luxury but can never get the same treatment in return...in fact they get shitted on when they ask for a little favor and the person they just helped will not return the favor...its akin to the middle child syndrome (its not really a syndrome i just couldn't think of another word)...the middle child in some families seems to always get the short end of the proverbial stick in family situations...

on the other end of the spectrum there are people that don't put any effort into anything they do but always seem to get 'the breaks' in life...these people may shit on others all day and will be the guy that will win a scratch off lottery ticket for $100,000...this will have you thinking 'how in the hell does he get the breaks and he treats people like bovine excrement'...i think this is the reason why some people don't like celebutantes/actresses like Paris Hilton, Lindsey Lohan, Nicole Richie, etc. because they get everything handed to them for doing basically nothing while exhibiting horrible behavior...but that's the hand the were dealt (rather silver spoon they were fed with)....

its a unfair part of life but its actual...people are dealt a certain hand in life and its their choice to deal with it or fold under the unfortunate situation they were given (damn I have alot of euphemisms in this rant relating to cards)...i guess that's what life is

I can't wait for the NBA season to start...this may be the most excited i've been for the start of a NBA season since the Bulls were running the 90's...one thing i have to think about again was Shaq signing with the Celtics...at first I thought Shaq is on his last leg so why would Boston pick up another aging veteran who can play but does not have the durability to play at least 75% healthy for a full season...well i might eat those words cuz looking at "Shaqtus" on his Shaq vs. show when he raced Tyson Gay, looks like he still has some athleticism in those bones...check the vid (didn't know D.

Tip of the Week #13: Don't use the N-word

This conversation comes up every so often in casual conversations privately and publicly amongst mixed groups of people...here we go, the rule when it comes to using the N-word (nigga or nigger) is as simple as this: if you don't have melanin in your skin then you can't publicly (cuz i know people use it private all the time) use the N-word...don't try to figure out why black people or latin american people (puerto ricans especially) can use the word...or try to use the rationale that you should be able to use the word cuz Chris Rock says it on his standup specials or damn near every rapper says in on a song...you just can't say it

people with melanin can use the word (i'm speaking bout black people mainly) simply cuz we can....that's it no more no less...I liken the use of the N-word to I can talk about my mom but you damn shonuff (shout out to Shonuff from The Last Dragon cult classic) better not say not one derogatory statement about my mom, its just some shit you just are not allowed to do...this tip stems from Dr. Laura, a radio personality speaking about the use of the N-word...peep the audio clip

Random Rant vol. 26: People are A$%holes pt.2

Here's the 2nd installation of the people are assholes rant...with the developments of oil spill and the large oil company (BP) trying to fix the mess they could have prevented, brings me to the point that money creates larger assholes (A*$hole + Big money = Larger A#$hole)...We all know that money runs the world but I think we are getting to a point money controls every facet of our life...i read about how BP neglected aging equipment, pressured employees not to report problems and cut short or delayed inspections to reduce production costs...i understand that the point of a business is to make money but damn these oil companies are already making PROFITS in the BILLIONS of dollars...

the higher ups in the oil companies could give a F*$& about safety and environment (pertaining to if there's an oil spill it would ruin the ecosystem in the ocean therefore f'n up the food supply for seafood lovers)...they just care about the bottom line, profits!...i wanna make crazy amounts of money like the next man but if it comes at the expense of seriously hurting or killing people (workers have died on the oil rig and workers are having difficulty breathing trying to clean up the spill) then i don't want it...

which brings me to the next point, war...the people that fund and start wars are complete rhinoceros pizzel (quote from Coming to America, Semmi said it)...they don't start wars to protect the country or give people freedom from tyrannical governments, no they do it because you can make cold hard cash from wars...these f$&*ers could give 2 cents about how the people in war are living (this includes soldiers, soldiers families, civilians in the country of the war)...they just know they are going to make a millions and billions of dollars...this current Iraqi Freedom fiasco is now at a cost of a TRILLION dollars to taxpayers (damn I hate taxes [sales, car, luxury, food, alcohol. Surprisingly there's no tax on gas, interesting])... imagine the money war companies are making (Tony Stark would have made a killing this past decade if he were a real person)...fuck these dicks...

p.s. - We should get out of "Vietnam 2.0" (the current war we are in) because I've come to the conclusion that these middle eastern dudes will fight forever until the end of time and you can't win (they will kill themselves at will and raise their kids to do the same. How can you fight that!?)...also i don't think that that part of the world needs or wants a democratic, free will society like us so we should just leave em alone and cut our losses...

Tip of the Week #11: Don't aggravate restaurant workers

This is a tip that is beneficial to your health well-being...when you go to a fast food spot, family restaurant, mom and pop restaurant refrain from complaining incessantly about the food...now i understand if they messed up your order completely and you want the waitress, drive-thru attendant or cashier to fix the order...don't give them a nasty attitude and complain that you're order is not what you wanted...there's a way to be respectful so they can give you what you want

...i say be respectful and show a little decorum because i always fear and think that those dudes in the back preparing your meal may get ticked off because the food keeps coming back and might do vile things to your food...you know like spit in it, drop it on the floor, shit it in it, drop bird poop in your salad, piss in your lemonade, you know stuff like that...just kindly ask the waiter/waitress to give you what you requested instead of giving attitude...(i don't even like to eat with people who complain about their food all the time to the waiters cuz i think they might f- up my food. Just wait til my food comes to the table then you can complain all you want)

and for godsakes sometimes it ain't that hard to just take the pickles off of your burger if you didn't want them, instead of sending it back for them to take off 3 pickles

All the tracks are original, fresh and entertaining...I noticed the hate on Drake (on the 'net and in the streets) and I don't see why because he can actually rap with thought provoking, insightful lyrics...then to add he can actually carry a note without using autotunes over creative beats...another piece of music to check for is The Cool Kids latest mixtape venture with Los Angeles Leakers named Tacklebox....

the tacklebox has all new tracks with that old school 80's feel while Mikey Rocks and Chuck Inglish spit their fashion riddled, sports reference raps...definitely download this mixtape (this 'tape gave me some satisfaction because i was saddened by the release of Young Jeezy - Trap or Die II. Trap or Die II seemed too redundant [beats sounded similar] though some tracks are good) ...so go download or buy Drake's album (on June 15th) and d'load the Cool Kids mixtape....

p.s. - Wiz Khalifa's OJ and Kush mixtape is worth a listen or two also

Stuff of hilarity: The Rock on Cleveland

Since I'm on the LeBron, Cleveland subject...I might as well bring out the classic gem from an era when the present Dwayne Johnson was known to the world simply as The Rock...Joakim Noah bashed the city of Cleveland for being boring and basically shitty and it looks like The Rock had the same sentiment for Cleveland back in the 90's...peep the hilarity (damn WWE was funny and entertaining as all get out in the late 90's with DX, The Rock, Stone Cold, Jeff Jarrett, Y2J, etc.)...

Stuff of hilarity: Cleveland NEEDS LeBron

With all the LeBron hype of where will he play next year, the personalities from the city of Cleveland decided to record and make a video to persuade the Akron Hammer (nickname for LeBron givin by Colin and Michelle Beedle from SportsNation on ESPN) to stay in Cleveland...damn they want him to stay bad and in my opinion need him to stay just to keep the Cleveland sports landscape relevant (the Browns stink & the Indians are mediocre)...peep the vid

Spreadin the real: Beyonce - Why Don’t You Love Me video

I like to see when a video has some creativity and uses old elements to create some new ish...here's the video to "Why don't you love me" (i think its a bonus cut from the Sasha Fierce album)...Beyonce has like 5 videos from that one album, good gawd she puts in crazy work not to mention the videos she's done with Lady Gaga...Jay-Z you fortunate, lucky bastard...peep it...



here's the inspiration for the video

Tip of the Week #10: A little cologne/perfume is enough

This little tidbit tip goes out to broheims and the ladies...When you wear your cologne/perfume remember less is better...there is no need to spray cologne on your shirt 5 times while spraying twice on your wrists while spraying twice on your neck...there is absolutely no need to bathe in your fragrance...just know that after 3 sprays the refreshing smell starts to smell like revolting sinus clearing funk...the point of cologne/perfume is to have a scent not to have a smell that's a part of you...

Don't you hate when some old lady is wearing the worst old school perfume like Stetson (or some other gawd-awful fragrance)...and they have so much on that when they pass you in the hallway you're still smelling it 5 minutes after they left you...too much cologne/perfume does not give off the lasting impression that is pleasantly memorable...just remember 3 sprays or dabs is enough...trust me that girl or guy your trying to attract will smell you...

...btw i still have a bottle of Curve for men that was purchased for me 7 yrs ago because i don't wallow in cologne when i put it on...

Spreadin the real: illdoctrine on T-Pain's arrogance of ignorance

Once again i must post a vid from one of my fav blogs on the internet, nildoctrine (formerly illdoctrine)...J Smooth goes in on T-Pain's political stand and his arrogant ignorance towards politics...just watch and you will see what I mean...

btw this is the 1st post i've posted in a week...i felt like I was fairly persistent and consistent with updating the blog but I noticed I'm not...i really don't see how people can update their blog everyday with useful content...its a talent and very diligent work ethic that I don't have when it comes to updating my computer content (shout out to 2dopeboyz cuz they update their blog with new content it seems every 4 minutes and T.O. Polk)...peep the video though...

Random Rant vol. 25: Bad rap in public

You know sometimes when a comedian gets on stage and they go through their set and it's a complete bomb....you know when none of the jokes are funny, no one is laughin' and you can sense that the comedian is diggin deep to get the audience to at least chuckle...i don't know bout yall but I get a feeling that I feel bad and embarrassed for the poor soul..it's a weird feeling...i get that same feeling when I see people who rap horribly (either a real rapper or a person joking around) in public...

^^^This demonstrates my point. Damn this is bad and hilarious all at the same time (Jamie Foxx is a fool).

I don't know what it is but it hurts my soul when I see an old white dude on a news station or something start to rap in a joking fashion...its soooo bad to the point where I feel embarrassed for the dude even if he doesn't feel bad about himself...when I used to watch 106 & Park's Freestyle Friday (back in early 2000's when it was a little tolerable to watch. When Jin and Poster Boy was killing it) and a weak rapper would spit and was terrible, I really felt bad for the dude like damn I know your boys are clowning you...

I must give a tip pertaining to this subject...please people if you have no rhythm or don't listen to hip hop regularly or you think Yung Joc's "Its goin down" is new music (that's so 4 years ago [Valley girl impression]), don't rap in public for your own dignity...its sounds worse than people trying to sing whom are terrible because because because........well just because it just sounds bad...here's a video to explain what I mean...

just horrible....

I was a Duck Down Records fan since the 90's (Heltah Skeltah, OGC - Da Storm album was ill, Duck Down compilation album was ill)...still a fan of Duck Down (especially since they signed Skyzoo, btw The Salvation album is nice) but my favorite mc outta the entire label is clearly Sean Price aka Sean P aka Ruck from Heltah Skeltah...peep the freestyle he did on DJ Enuff's online radio show...i love that raw, say whatever not made for radio hip hop...

Random Rant vol. 24: People are A$%holes pt.1

This is a rant that's been brewing for a while...its been brewing so long that I know that this will have to be broken up into several parts, so I present to you part 1...When I say people are assholes I not only mean people in the contiguous North American continent, I mean across the entire world...I think communists and dictatorship countries are assholes...the people that run these types of governments just control and tell people how to live, what to do and how they should think...now I must admit people in large groups are simple and most of the time stupid people but that does not give one person or small group of individuals the right to have total (or damn near total) authority of their lives...

for example in China they control the content you can view on the internet...its not like they are monitoring and condemning people from viewing dangerous terrorist content, you can't view adult entertainment there....so dictatorships and communists government officials are assholes...

another asshole is this lady I heard about in the news a few months back...A woman was out with her friends and she met a guy then left the club (or bar) with him...self-conscience about what her friends were thinking and saying about her leaving them behind for some late night love, the woman later accuses the guy of rape...this innocent man was sent up to the 'big house' for 4 years...after 4 years of imprisonment the woman finally admitted that she lied and he was released from prison...this woman is a complete asshole and should be sent up for at least 10 years...

why she's a asshole is because she blamed a innocent man of a heinous crime that no matter if he is innocent he's still looked at as a rapist (some people still refer to Kobe Bryant as a racist and he was completely innocent)...then he lost 4 years of his life he will never get back...my definition of a asshole is as follows: 1) being a complete jerk for no good, specific, logical reason 2) being a jerkoff for personal gain or 3) to be difficult simply for the fact for being difficult...so Communists, Dictators and this vile woman fit the definition...

part 2 coming later (its so many A-holes, its insane)

Innovations: Playstation Move

I don't know why I had NO clue Sony was creating a motion controller (like the Nintendo Wii's controller)...it actually was show last year in June but i still had no clue til i read the article about EA releasing Tiger Woods '11 (i heard there will be another golfer on the front of the cover, Tiger might not even be on it) and they said it will incorporate the Sony Playstation Move controller when it releases in June '10...it looks like according to the demo that Sony had at E3, it is better technically the Nintendo Wii's controller...just peep the vid and be amazed....

I'm a MC: Jay Electronica

Jay Electronica's birth and homeplace is New Orleans, Louisiana...he got his first big break in the hip hop industry by producing "Queens get the money" on Nas' Untitled album...he is known mainly in the underground and internet circles for his intricate rhymes and original flow on J.Dilla tracks and new Just Blaze cuts...Jay's most known tracks are Exhibit A and Exhibit C both produced by Just Blaze are heavily acclaimed and praised by underground circles...

Jay has never dropped an official album and only 1 official mixtape titled "Act 1: Eternal Sunshine (The Pledge)"...the mixtape consisted of 15 minutes of music broken down into 4 parts......Act 2 was supposed to be released in '08 but was pushed back to '09 and still not released...fans are still waiting on Act 2 in 2010 and can only get bits and pieces of new music from the unique MC...he has been featured on the Reflection Eternal's "Just begun" featuring J.Cole & Mos Def recently

to view a sample of new music that's supposed to drop peep http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cA010JeecE ... look across the internet to download custom mixtapes that contains various mixtapes from NO's own like Style Wars EP (2004) and Reeltalkblog.com Presents The Jay Electronica Project (2010)...
