Chicken On Me Everybody!

May 6th, 2009 · Uncategorized

Oprah Winfrey buys everybody in the country a meal at KFC.

oprah-winfrey

Before I gracefully accept this meal, let me talk some shit real quick. There’s a couple things wrong with this picture:

1.) As the richest BLACK woman in the world, did you have to choose the CHICKEN joint to give everyone a free meal? Do you know how hard it’s gonna be for black people eating chicken publicly for YEARS to come? That’s like Jay-Z buying everybody watermelons. That’s like Carlos Slim Helu offering every U.S. citizen free lawn service. Do you know how many black jokes are cooking up in Drizzle’s head? Damn, Oprah….(cont. on 2.)
2.) …couldn’t you have picked some place with a salad bar or some shit? Did the CHICKEN place offer you a discount? I mean, being Oprah and all, all health conscious and shit…notoriously known for your struggle with weight…are you seriously encouraging us to go to KFC? Is it ’cause they’re grilling their chicken now? And even if…(cont. on 3.)
3.) …don’t you know they have been killing black people for years? Do you recognize the disproportional amount of chicken joints located in the hood? On principle alone, Oprah. Com’on. How you anti-hip-hop and pro-KFC?

Whew! With that said, Thank you so much, Oprah, for the free chicken. I’m going right now!

The Hate (cont.): Eminem’s “3 AM”

May 3rd, 2009 · The Hate

I don’t know if I like Eminem anymore. And it’s so sad because use to be one of my favorites. It’s like falling out of love. Am I the only one who feels this way?

Watch For: Joel – “The Director’s Cut”

April 28th, 2009 · Watch For

Joel is one of my favorite emcees in the Sacramento area.  He might even be one of my favorite emcees, period.  Great cadence, great delivery, great lyrics.  What more can you ask for?  I ain’t even heard this joint yet but if it’s anything like his last project “Average Joe Vol. 1″, it might change your life.  Download NOW, son!

5 reason I’m glad Rick Ross’ Album was dope

April 25th, 2009 · Uncategorized

1. It inspired the New York Times to print an insightful article about rap culture, image and theater. Check it out here.

2 It was the perfect soundtrack to iLL-Literacy’s trip to Miami

3. It makes 50 cent look like the dick he is.

4. I only bought it because I was prompted to go into the record store by my homie so I could see the girl with the fat booty and I didn’t wanna look too obvious.

5. It’s great music. Great album. Definitely one of the best and most succinct I’ve heard in a long time.

Good-bye or Good buy?

Maybe we should have taken this IM KING interview a little more serious. We don’t sound like assholes, do we?
