Here’s a well documented phenomena: if you’re a couple of rappers even I’ve never heard of one of you and the other one of you is in Dem Franchize Boyz, you don’t have an extra $100,000 to burn. Also, come on guys, we’re supposed to be tightening our belts, what would Obama say? Also, they’re not burning real money.
While the economy is disintegrating, the senate-house stimulus-bill compromise increased tax cuts and cut funding to the states which is retarded because a lot of people are going to lose their jobs. Afghanistan looks a lot like Road Warrior b-roll. Oh, and speaking of the Road Warrior, Australia’s on fire.
Nothing’s funny. You know is funny though? Ernie and Bert performing my favorite M.O.P. song ever: “Ante Up.”
Sure, M.I.A. performing 9 months pregnant was awesome, but you know what was even more awesome? Not watching the Grammys and then finding the one awesome performance on the internet. It’s kind of like not buying the crappy album and finding the one good song on the internet for free, only it’s televised and Gwenith Paltrow’s there with her gay English gay husband.
If you’re like me, then whether or not you knew it, all your life, you were only waiting for this Kool Keith/Tom Waits collabo to arrive. Doesn’t it sound like the champion drunks from two very different neighborhoods talking at each other in a piano bar? Yes it does.
It’s from N.A.S.A.’s Spirit of Apollo album which comes out 2/17/09. Among others, it features Method Man, RZA, Kanye, Karen O., Kool Keith, Tom Waits and I’m predicting it’ll be blasting out of every dorm room and cool-but-not-too-cool bar in the northeast by end of March… I’m downloading all the tracks I can now so I can hear it before my brain starts associating it with annoying cocktails and kids that wear cowrie beads.
