2013 West Indian Day Parade and Pics RECAP!!!

What’s woody wood, grasshoppers?
 
The king got it in @ the West Indian Day Parade jumpoff in Brooklyn on Labor Day…the parade popped off on Eastern Parkway in Crown Heights…a lot of negroes acted too pussy to hit up the parade…they feared gettin’ shot, stabbed, or beat down at the joint
 
Not meeeeeee
 
You only live once, and I’m not the one to let fear run my life…I’m not on some tough guy shit, but I have heart…and with that said, I got it crackin’, baby

I met up with my homegirl on Ralph Avenue and we trekked to Rockaway Boulevard to catch up with the lady masqueraders before they paraded on Eastern Parkway
 
You know I had to get mines before they celebrated, but I saw something funny as hell on my way to Rockaway and Sutton Ave…

...I saw THIS!

Obama Fried Chicken?
 

Really???
 

Anyway…my homegirl and her friend snapped some flicks of me and the ladies rockin’ their cute lil outfits…I passed out bookmarks after taking flicks with them…yes, I mix business with pleasure, baby
 

OH!!!
 

Life is too short for the shy shit

Rockaway got crowded after awhile…po po showed their asses by blocking off the streets, tryna regulate shit…the whole NYPD showed up in Brooklyn…I even peeped a couple of officers I usually see in Queens…real talk

I breezed past the fake ass police barrier and took more flicks of the ladies…man, oh, man…the ladies were THICK as hell, fam
 
You would’ve thought I died and went to Heaven

 

The last shorty is BAD…
 

…bad meaning GOOD for the slow muh’fuckas

(Blogger's edit as of 9/21/15: I found out her name is Sibongile "Symba" Cummings from a chick in a Facebook group I'm in)
 
The parade started late…ninjas swagged on that Colored People time shit…didn’t matter to me, tho…I had a ball

The floats started on Rockaway and curved up the street before busting that left on Eastern Parkway…I never got behind the steel barriers…fuck, no…I blended with the masqueraders by marching with them down the parkway

I was in the THICK of things…no pun intended

The Sesame Flyers band

Shorty twerked on the stilts...amazing

The Jamaican band

The Haitian band

The Grenadian band

The folks of Grenada did their thing, lookin’ like Muslim ninjas and shit…LOL

The Haitians owned Eastern Parkway…they rolled DEEP…the Jamaican float was okay...JUST okay…I’m very disappointed because at one point in history, when you thought of West Indians in New York, you thought of those Garveyites aka Jamaicans

BUYAKA BUYAKA!!!
 

I see the game ain’t the same
 

But the band that had everyone jumpin’ out their pants and humpin’ each other like cats in heat were the Freak NY Mas band...they blasted the music and charged the crowd on 10 when the DJ cued in the Bunji Garlin Ready for the Road joint (Click here to listen)...and guess what...

I got it in with them

Freaks NY Mas band

You know I got shit JUKIN'!!!…jukin’ is Chicago slang for "TURN UP"…I got behind any chick I got my hands on and grinded on some ass cheeks…and guess what, most of them went with the program
 

And no dudes hated either…everybody got it in…everybody had a ball…and I didn’t see or hear any dumb shit like gun shots, stabbings, or killings that stereotypically goes on during the parade on the Parkway
 

But I DID see two butch broads fight on the sidewalk behind the barrier over a cheeseburger…yep…two dykes throwing jabs over that red meat
 

A damn shame, ain’t it?
 

Liquid sunshine drip dropped on the parade…the drizzle didn’t stop the party…the sky cleared, but by that time I called it a day around 4pm…I was beat

I almost missed the whole parade...my homegirl thought the parade ended at 6pm...the joint ended around 2...if it wasn't for me doing my thing while they got some grub, I would've fucked around and missed the whole damn thing

Word on the street is that the city of New York keep raising the prices to charge floats/bands...the cost of putting together a band is costing an arm and leg...that's why only a few bands showed up
 
I won't be surprised if a corporation show up to sponsor the parade and change the joint to "The (insert company here) West Indian Day Parade"

Everything under the sun is going corporate now
 
Aight, ya’ll…it’s been real
 

Peace

Battle Rap For Dummies

What’s woody wood grasshoppers?

I’m gonna start posting a couple blogs about battle rap in the coming days leading up to the SMACK/URL Summer Madness 3 event in NYC…Summer Madness 3 is the Super Bowl of battle rap…but there’s A LOT of controversy involved

One part of that controversy involves Loaded Lux, who many consider one of the top tier, if not THEE best, battle MC…one thing’s for sure, he’s a legend, and after his monumental battle with Detroit’s own Calicoe, his stock has risen

I’ll explain about Lux in the next blog

But for now, let me introduce my readers who aren’t familiar with battle rap the match between Loaded Lux vs. Calicoe at last year’s Summer Madness

Miley Cyrus Killed Twerking

What’s woody wood grasshoppers?

I just found out that Oxford had added “twerking” to the dictionary...ain’t that a bitch…you had those Twerk Team chicks puttin’ in work on YouTube for years only to get outshined by Miley Cyrus who wasn’t even twerkin’ right…LOL

I guess white folks gotta do something before it becomes validated

What Miley did on stage with Robin Thicke at the MTV Video Music Awards is what we used to say in the 80s…SKEEZIN’…I’ve seen white chicks twerk better than Miley…now that I think about it, even better than Black chicks from Ghettoville USA

And yet, the media wanna associate what she did on stage as “acting Black”…fuck outta here…Black folks don’t claim hoodrat-ish behavior, so why the fuck would they acknowledge twerkin’ as “acting Black”?

Just go on YouTube and search for Twerk Team if you wanna see some real twerkin’

Even though the so-called vulgur dance, Baikoko, is similar to twerkin’ and has roots in East Africa, twerkin’ is more like that distant cousin who no one wanna claim when it comes to African dance tradition...Baikoko is seen as performing art, whereas twerkin' is viewed as a mating call for thirsty dudes...I'll let you decide for yourself

Click here to see the Baikoko dance moves that’s similar to twerkin’ if you're on your phone



I have no problem with chicks twerkin’…I just think Miley Cyrus WASN’T twerkin’ with that pancake ass of hers on stage…you have to be a SPECIAL kinda twerker to make my temperature rise...not some ol' hoodrat or country bumpkin like Cyrus

Real twerkin’ is poetry in motion, baby…act like ya know

Speakin’ of Robin Thicke, it seemed like this year’s VMA was the year of the swagger jack

Justin Timberlake was the wannabee Michael Jackson…Robin Thicke jacked Marvin Gaye’s swag …Miley Cyrus bootleg twerkin’ caught America by storm…shit, even Macklemore ran Hip-Hop that night

Fuck “the new Black”…white is “the new Soul”…Ha ha!

Shout out to Elvis Presley

Click here to listen and watch the Marvin Gaye track "Got to Give it Up" aka the original "Blurred Lines" if you're on your phone



It’s funny that Hampton University, a historical Black university, had banned twerkin’ on campus…no one made a fuss about twerkin’ until Miley’s poor showing on stage…it’s almost like how society didn’t take crack serious in the 80s until folks in the suburbs started smokin’ that glass dick

CLICK HERE to read the story about Hampton U twerk banning

I don’t wanna spend too much time on this subject…if you wanna read some juicy controversy about Miley and her so-called twerkin’, CLICK HERE…trust me, it’s a GOOD article, and I don’t even like Black feminists and their joke ass movement like that...but hey, I don't discriminate on thought-provoking writing

One more thing…

Many of you know I love big girls regardless of skin complexion, but the chick wearing the bear costume on stage was wildin'…matter of fact, that whole performance was a straight up minstrel show…the only thing missing was Miley wearin’ Black face along with 2 Chainz and K Lamar buck dancing around eating watermelon

I’m not gon’ lie…the sista got a PHAT ass…if she takes off that clown ass bear costume, we’ll be cool like a polar bear’s toe nails

I’m gonna leave you with Charlemagne tha God’s thoughts about Miley…enjoy

SMACK/URL Summer Madness 3 Card and Predictions

What's woody wood, grasshoppers?

This year's SMACK/URL Summer Madness 3 rap battle event is held in New York City @ Studio 48 on Sunday, September 8th, 2013 #BarsOverNames

Click here for ticket info

I'm pissed that Loaded Lux and Hollow Da Don aren't battling...Lux wants 40k to battle Hollow, and SMACK (the co-founder of URL) isn't having it...But hey, I can't knock the man for his asking price

Lux's performance @ last year's Summer Madness was monumental...click here for my recap about his battle with Calicoe

Speaking of Calicoe, homie is back in full effect after fighting off alleged dog fighting charges...I don't feel like giving you the background story behind that...you can Google that shit to see for yourself

Anyway...check out the Summer Madness 3 card and predictions below (based on 3 rounds)


Arsonal vs K-Shine

Prediction: Arsonal 2 - K Shine -1

Ars is too nasty for Shine...point blank 


Math Hoffa vs Serius Jones

Prediction: Math 3-0

Math really has a grudge against Serius, and based on Serius's performance at last year's Summer Madness against Charlie Clips, he really hasn't changed his flow


Big T vs. O-Red

Prediction: O-Red 3-0

O-Red is a beast, and Big T is too inconsistent for my liking


Calicoe vs. T-Rex

Prediction: Calicoe 2-1

A hungry Cal will edge Rex...barely 


JC vs. John John Da Don

Prediction: JC 3-0

JC is dope...I'm not really feeling John John...duke is corny to me

Tay Roc vs. Ill Will


Prediction: Ill Will 2-1

A toss up, but I give Ill the edge


Daylyt vs. Swave Sevah

Prediction: Daylyt 2-1

Daylyt is a dope lyricist and highly entertaining without the bullshit antics he's known for, and Swave is raw as well, but I don't think he has enough ammo for the weirdo


Jaz the Rapper vs. Ms. Hustle

Prediction: Me fuckin' the shit outta both of 'em

The first female battle in URL history will not get a prediction from me...yes, I'm on my male chauvinist shit tonight


Aight ya'll...it's been real

Black Power Is For Black Women

What’s woody wood, grasshoppers?

Besides the grossly overrated Kendrick Lamar verse that’s buzzing today in cyberspace, the other foolish phenomenon that’s distracting the American Negro is the internet-based Black Power Is For Black Men craze that was started by whatever her name is

The hash tag #BlackPowerIsForBlackMen is pretty much saying how Black men are eating from the fruits of male privilege in America…

…but the last time I checked, mass incarceration, getting beat and shot while handcuffed, hung from trees, racially profiled, police stopping and frisking Black males on the street without probable cause, and being viewed as a criminal through the media aren't exactly privileges that anyone wants

Damn…the American Negro STAYS losing…the focus had went from attacking Paula Deen for saying "nigger" (she WON the discrimination lawsuit...click here to read), and George Zimmerman with the system that defended him, to Negroes mentally fighting each other over an issue that EVERY nationality goes through

The message was flipped from #JusticeForOurYoungBoys to #BlackPowerIsForBlackMen in a 3-week span

Wow…that’s deep…it really is

No wonder slavery had lasted for 400 years…oh, I get it now…buck dancing, moonshine, and watermelon were more important than freedom…I swear, man...niggas got the attention span of a 1-year old…LOL

Anyway…

This internet craze got all the Black feminists, womanists, or whatever they call themselves, their panties in a bunch, trying to intellectualize their bitterness and hurt from all the years of dating dusty niggas that weren’t shit in the first place

They got hurt because they were blinded by the "swag," and now they wanna spark a revolution on some Sofia from The Color Purple type shit against a group of men who are just as powerless as they are in America
 
So to make light of the sit'ation, I decided to poke fun of this joke ass movement with a satire…a tongue-in-the-ass-cheek of a dirty stripper type of joke

I call this one Black Power Is For Black Women #BlackPowerIsForBlackWomen

 
…when you get ass implants to twerk for YouTube hits

…using phone sex to get to the next level in Candy Crush

…sweet talking bus drivers for free rides

…getting in the club for free before midnight

…cheering when Olivia Pope steals Fitz from his white wife

…you’re a virgin when you go to a new town

…when the pastor tricks off the church collection on you

…you expect to get free drinks at the club

…buying outfits and taking them back the next day because you kept the receipt

…getting away with dressing like Nicki Minaj because you think Harriet Tubman is ugly

...a hoe is a housewife once she finds religion

…none of the Basketball Wives are married, but you’re a wife anyway

…you think World Star views will make you famous

…you got Indian in your blood because you permed your hair

…you watch Scandal but hate Tyler Perry for casting Kim Kardashian for a movie role

…you mess up your kids' credit score before they turn 18

…it’s okay to retire as a stripper

…you use the word “independent” because Beyonce said it

…you march for gay rights because they make better male friends

And last but not least…

…cheering Zimmerman on because he killed the nigga who looks like your baby daddy


Aight ya’ll…I’m out

Peace

Ha ha @ the niggers...they don't forgive, but they always FORGET!

Kendrick Lamar RUNS New York

What’s woody wood, grasshoppers???

The buzz about Kendrick Lamar’s verse is annoying as fuck

Yeah, it’s dope…and I’m glad that mainstream America is finally giving lyricism it’s due after dumbing down itself by jerking off to the beat…but the rhyme is a bit overhyped…straight up and down

Headz are acting like he’s the second coming of Rakim by the way they’re reacting to his verse...I mean, pump the fuckin' brakes...let it breathe for a second

Then again, K Lamar is from the West Coast, and they haven't been relevant since Dub C was C-Walkin' on stage at the Up In Smoke Tour...ha ha!

Anyway...

Headz got the “appreciating the sun after watching it rain for 90 days” syndrome…yes, the rhyme is a breather of fresh air, but I’m not gonna bust a nut over one verse…I’ve been listening to Hip-Hop since the 80s, so I’m not gonna cream in my pants over a rhyme from a newbie who’s taking advantage of the circumstance that mainstream rap is the brown juice that’s leaking from the garbage truck

The flip side is that K Lamar is pushing rappers and MCs to push their pens to the limit…and yes, there IS a difference between rappers and MCs…if you don’t know and claim to be a Hip-Hopper, do the Lord’s favor and kill ya’self
 
Aight, ya'll

Peep the lyrics below and judge for yourself

Full Verse:

Tell Flex to drop a bomb on this shit
So many bombs, ring the alarm like Vietnam in this shit
So many bombs, make Farrakhan think Saddam in this bitch
One at a time, I line ‘em up and bomb on they mom while she watchin’ the kids
I’m in a destruction mode if the gold exists
I’m important like the pope, I’m a Muslim on pork
I’m Makaveli’s offspring, I’m the king of New York
King of the Coast, one hand, I juggle them both
The juggernaut’s all in your jugular, you take me for jokes
Live in the basement, church pews and funeral faces
Cartier bracelets for my women friends, I’m in Vegas
Who the fuck y’all thought it’s supposed to be?
If Phil Jackson came back, still no coachin’ me
I’m un-coachable, I’m unsociable Fuck y’all clubs,
Fuck y’all pictures, your Instagram can gobble these nuts
Gobble dick up ’til you hiccup, my big homie Kurupt
This the same flow that put the rap game on a crutch
I’ve seen niggas transform like villain Decepticons
Molly’s a prolly turn these niggas to fuckin’ Lindsay Lohan
A bunch of rich ass white girls lookin’ for parties
Playin with Barbies, wreck the Porsche before you give ‘em the car key
Judge me ’til the monarchy, blessings to Paul McCartney
You called me a black Beetle, I’m either that or a Marley
(I don’t smoke crack motherfucker I sell it)
I’m dressed in all black, this is not for the fan of Elvis
I’m aimin’ straight for your pelvis, you can’t stomach me
You plan on stumpin’ me? Bitch I’ve been jumped before you put a gun on me
Bitch I put one on yours, I’m Sean Connery
James Bonding with none of you niggas, climbing 100 mil in front of me
And I’m gon get it even if you’re in the way
And if you’re in it, better run for pete’s sake
I heard the barbershops be in great debates all the time
Bout who’s the best MC? Kendrick, Jigga and Nas
Eminem, Andre 3000, the rest of yall?
New niggas just new niggas, don’t get involved
And I ain’t rockin no more designer shit
White T’s and Nike Cortez, this is red Corvettes anonymous
I’m usually homeboys with the same niggas I’m rhymin wit
But this is hip hop and them niggas should know what time it is
And that goes for Jermaine Cole, Big KRIT, Wale
Pusha T, Meek Mills, A$AP Rocky, Drake
Big Sean, Jay electron’, Tyler, Mac Miller
I got love for you all but I’m tryna murder you niggas
Tryna make sure your core fans never heard of you niggas
They dont wanna hear not one more noun or verb from you niggas
What is competition? I’m tryna raise the bar high
Who tryna jump and get it? You all better off tryna skydive
Out the exit window of 5 G5’s with 5 grand
With your granddad as the pilot he drunk as fuck tryna land
With the hand full of arthritis and popping prosthetic leg
Bumpin Pac in the cockpit so the shit that pops in his head
Is an option of violence, someone heard the stewardess said
That your parachute is a latex condom hooked to a dread


Peace
