Steppin' to tha A.M.

What has happened to hip-hop? Are rappers so mystified with cash, cars, "bling" and video hoes that their concentration is in material bullshit and not their artform and culture? I'm sick to death of watching these non talent hacks with absolutely NO talent get on television, with half naked women, talking about all the clubs they frequent, and Cristal they ingest! I'm bored with the guys standing next to the Hummer H2 they can't afford, wearing the platinum chain; big enough to feed a small third world country. Broke ass rappers talking about bitches and hoes, and tossin' around money that doesn't belong to them.
What happened to the days of real hip hop...there are some artists holding it down. Seriously, what happened, where's Public Enemy to preach the truth when you need 'em! I want to hear artists flow, use breath control, and write a rhyme that's worth some shit! I don't mean preach to the masses, not everything need to be positive and concious...not everyone is from that environment, but use your grey matter and write some shit that worth listening to! Make it original, make it yours!
Destroy all fake gangsters, wannabees, excessive bling wearers, band-aid wearers, 2Pac clones, underage rapperrs talking about club life, and all NO TALENT MORONS THAT AREN'T WORTHY TO TOUCH A MIC!

It's 12.25 am, and i'm thinking..."why don't I go to fucking bed?!?" Can't really explain...I've got this thing with getting up early and going to sleep really late...or er early.
I've been watching the Olympics all week...I still kinda believe in the whole goodwill and hippie kinda vibe the Olympics provide! I watched badminton for about 2 hours yesterday...who in the fuck watches badminton??? I do because it's an Olympic sport...after this week I won't think about the sport for four years! But it's on now, so I watch.
Been contemplating about lots of things lately...nothing in order of importance. just thinking about, sex, music, Trivia Pursuit, Fishbone, my family, this bullshit war, the removal of George Bush from office, Quentin Tarrentino, the thrill of victory, cell phones, mic stands, writing poetry, the price of gas, real or fake, paper or plastic, ignorance, taoist meditation, bass paying, the agony of defeat, bills ,water, batteries, Ramen noodles, toothpaste, salsa, hot or mild, my future, my past, p.d.a's, wasabi peas, job security, world travel and much more I can't seem to corral together. I think I'm adult ADHD...'cause after this post, i'm gonna clean my bathroom and do laundry!
See what I mean!

It's been awhile...

Rick James passed away a couple of days ago. That really sucks, considering the man may have been a misguided soul, but an amazing musician and artist. Well, no more Dave Chappelle jokes!

Presidential candidate John Kerry is here in town...I really wanted to see him, however I was at work and couldn't make it! I really want him to replace GeeDub as president! In November..get out and vote.

My band Half Fast will be playing on Friday...I can't wait, it's an all ages show...we're gonna fuggin' rock it!

It's late and I have too many random thoughts buzzing around in my noggin...will return later!
