we believe in santogold
So recently I have been following M.I.A. and her crew. I'm sure you've all heard that she's been working with Baltimore's own Blaqstar and with his pro toge RYE-RYE (if you wanna know more about her Google), but enough about them, I'm stuck on Santogold! She's a new artist who has been doing her thing in the music business for some time now. She has been recognized by Rolling Stone as an "artist to watch" for her quirky beats mixed with reggae, hip hop, and techno and her "bizzare approach to lyrics". Santogold, born Santi White has a degree and all that jazz, but still has this youthful swag about her--talk about a role model. Her new single Creator/Les Artistes is popular with music heads everywhere and is perfect for those indie-dont-give-a-damn-hipsters who just love to make "ART". She has toured with M.I.A and even opened for Bjork and has still maintained her own unique sound (she is DIFFERENT than M.I.A)! Her debut album, "I Believe In Santogold" is sure to be hot shit. This Brooklyn girl is on the rise, and we mos def. love her over here.

the coolest nigga huh?
I would just like to say that I am not deep enough and can clearly not solve the problems facing today's world because I do not understand Kanye's hot ass video, but all you have to do is READ THE LYRICS. I have been reading blog after blog, comment after comment, getting the sweet low down on the deepest shit since Jesus wrote the Bible. Take this comment for example, that I read off of popwatch blog on EW.com:
People, people, people! The song is in fact about the paparazzi catching Kanye in the act of cheating...DUH DUH DUH...the whole point is there is no reason for him to be murdered! Is he speaking out against domestic violence, has Kanye become an activist? Maybe he should have killed a paparazzi in the trunk, I could have accepted that. . I'm not anti-Ye, I'm just pro-makingsense.
P.S...i don't think Kanye's that damn deep either he's like a simile not a metaphor, and that is the beauty we get from his music, his ability to stylistically state the obvious with a touch of wit and humor....just READ THE LYRICS

swagalicious
swagalicous (adj)-(a.) pertaining to a male or female whose "swag" is so completely overdone and foolish (b.) describing someone who is obsessed with themselves and their "swag" (c.) a word used to personify those who constantly talk about themselves, their "janks", and "how sweet they are"...synonymns are "fool", "hoar" (baltimore edition), "joke", "VCU", "the commons" and "freshman" (lol sorry it I just had to do it, no hard feelings? Haha)
In a Sentence- These "swagsters" who posess unbeliveable amounts of "swag" are very "swagalicious".
Vote Obama 08' to STOP THE SWAG

the coolest nigga wat?
Kanye West Flashing Lights video...hmmmm..mmmmm...well I don't know how long this wretched piece of nothingness has been out, but i absolutely hate it. It doesn't go with the song and it's pretty gruesome, I was so creeped out. I mean I felt that Kanye was just trying to be deep for no reason. Maybe it will be like a series of videos, like R.Kelly's "Trapped In The Closet", or maybe he's trying to make a movie, or maybe he's been smoking crack with Lil' Wayne (excuse me snorting COKE with Lil' Wayne)...the world will never know. Just watch this shit and if you like it cool, but if you don't you'll be left with a reaction of "wtf". In the words of Clive Grant, "He's goin' crazy, geniouses always do". It's like an artist who doesn't have any art left so they just do some crazy shit like run the New York Marathon with a mowhawk or make endless reality TV shows about making bands and making the contestants walk across all the burroughs to get him cheesecake, yaknowatimsayin? On the other hand maybe it was too artsy for me to understand, but I doubt it, we're pretty deep over here...and if I have a revelation in mid-sleep, I'll just change my opinion-this isn't written in stone, only on the computer lol. I guess Lupe is our only hope, and he was number 1 on 106 & Park today, and we all know what that potentially does to peoeple. In conclusion, don't kill yourself in a video unless your retiring and plan on ressurecting, kinda like Hov, or if your predicting your own death like Biggie...that's always interesting, but you really have to die after that and I don't think that should be in Kanye's life plan...anyways watch this ish and leave me ur thoughts...

Corporate Scum
So I've been on my political shit this semester and I'm telling you everyone should hop on. I was at work today, doing my usual surf of generic "semi-department" stores, like urban outfitters, and I got bored because everything looks the same (except for this sequined skirt I've been hunting for a few months) so I decided to google urban and see what crazy shit I can conjour up about the multi-million dollar company. I was utterly suprised, it turns out that husband-wife CEO duo of the company are ultra conservativde republicans and use a generous portion
of their funds in supporting Republican candidates. The kicker is that certain shirts, such as the "obama for yo mama" and the "hilary is my homegirl" shirts are pro-democrat, but the purchase of these shirts help to support REBUPLICAN campaigns! Wtf? Its a conspiracy I tell you! The store aims to target college students, into the new age thrifty, bohemian looks-who are mainly liberals-but yet they use our dollars to fund conservative one sided bullshit! Why don't they make clothes that cater to young republicans like polos and pearl necklaces, instead of fooling their demographic that the owners are rasta living, bohemian-esque, weed smokers, who make clothes to cater to people like them. At this rate, the owner of Abercrombie and Fitch is probably a Green Party member!
To find out more about corporate scum, urban, and CEOs who use poor children in India to make their clothes or are potentially funding the Darfur genocide go to www.corporatescum.com or google that shit!

NIGGER drops bombs on Grammys
So basically I think Nas is a genius in every way shape and form. Why? Because he wore a shirt that says "Nigger" to the Grammys, and "No" I was not scared to type that word. Historically "nigger" has been one of those words black people should have never gotten used to, but just decided to turn it into something "positive", like how feminists attempt to claim that "bitch" is a term of endearment? All that is a load of crap, the most crap you will probably ever hear in your young life. I cant even lie though, I do use "nigga" probably about every 12 seconds in between profanities, but that's something I can conquer in due time. Anyway Nas CLEARLY has a bigger agenda that has nothing to do with promotion, he wants to basically in a sense symbolically delete the words' meaning in order to grow from the negativity stemming from it. Of course he knows good and damn well that the word will always hold its negative connotation, but he wants to make people aware of what they are saying, aware of all of the baggage that one word carries. In a recent video i saw,Nas states that he wants to "take the power from the word", a difficult feat for anyone, even a famous rapper lol. This could be one of the most influential albums of our time (next to The Cool), Nas is making the hip hop community recognize all of the issues surrounding this one word (hence the change from "nigga" to "nigger") he is forcing us to pay attention and face it, not to cover it up and pretend like its not there. This album will not be celebratory, not a glorification of the glitz and glam of "nigga", but a factual realization of the negativity surrounding "nigger", the ignorance surrounding that word and its glamorous counterpart. You gotta support this album folks, if you don't it's like not supporting Obama--better yet it's like being a Republican, and who wants to be that?
