Who Would Wanna Be King?

The show is over, the lights are dim, but the crowd aint leave, they want to stay with him.
They want him to dance,

they want him to sing.

But the show is over, the mic is gone,
and the crowd is still here, to see him perform.
They want one more chance,

who would wanna be king?

Why Study When I Can Blog About Leon & Usher?

CIA Director Leon Panetta is accusing former Vice President and First Dick, Richard Cheney, of "gallow politics," stating that he feels like Cheney almost wants the country to be attacked, so that he can prove that he's right about President Obama being a no-good nigger.

Oh, my bad, that's not what he said.

He said that he feels like Cheney almost wishes the country would be attacked so that he can be proven right about Obama's decisions on Gitmo and reversing Bush policies putting the America's national security in jeopardy. The AP quotes Panetta as saying, "It's almost, a little bit, gallows politics. When you read behind it, it's almost as if he's wishing that this country would be attacked again, in order to make his point. I think that's dangerous politics."

Electrifying conclusion: I toooold niggas that names like Leon and Leroy and Rufus are white names originally. Niggas in Africa aint have names like that. Those aint black names. Those are white names! Old-ass white names man, look it up. Yeah, brothers done cornered the market on those names (we're working on Melvin and Jarvis now too), but like I said, that wasn't always us. Anyway, um, yeah, fuck Cheney. And let's be honest; it's not just that he wishes an attack on us. He's PLOTTING one. Again. Some people will do anything to be right.

Scientists brought back alive an organism that has been dead (they call it reawakening it from hibernation, but I aint for that description) for 120,00 years. AOL science news says, "A small purple microbe that spent more than 120,000 years in hibernation deep beneath a Greenland ice sheet is alive again. Scientists at Pennsylvania State University revived the bug in a lab by warming it in an incubator over the course of 11 months, Scientific American reported.
The bacterium, which was found under nearly two miles of ice, began producing fresh colonies when it was reawakened. Scientists say the discovery suggests that dormant life could be revived from ice particles taken from Mars sometime in the future."

Electrifying conclusion: They say that it's a harmless microbe. F-ck outta here. I watch movies and cartoons and sh-t, so I know 'bout stuff like this. No organism waits 120,000 years to come back to life and be harmless. Evil beings hellbent on world conquest are very patient. It's already reproducing, according to the article. Why is money spent on this? Why do these niggas want there to be life on Mars so bad? Life that they want to re-animate if it's dead, bring to Earth, and possibly take over our planet, kill us off, and try to bring us back to life a million years from now? Is having a black president sooo bad, that they're willing to risk bringing in killer space invaders to not have to follow him? I mean, I'm joking, but with Cheney saying that he'd rather Limbaugh be the face of the GOP than Colin Powel, it only makes sense that the ol' Skull & Bones set would just as soon put our country's (and world's) fate in the hands of Marvin the Martian before they'd give the reigns to a brother. Which always makes me question if he really even has the reigns. Because the people put him in that position, and from what I've seen in my time, the people don't really have any power in this land. So does the person the people put into power have any real power? Maybe not. But that's one man's opinion.

That's a wrap y'all! Usher and Tameka filed for divorce (shocking!). People says, "Usher has filed for divorce from wife Tameka Foster Raymond. The R&B star filed the petition Friday in Superior Court in Atlanta, court records show. The couple, who got married in August 2007, have two sons together, Usher Raymond V, 18 months, and Naviyd, 6 months. Usher, 30, and his wife of nearly two years, 38, have been leading separate lives for months, sources tell PEOPLE. The singer has been away from home often recording his next record in Las Vegas, one source says. "He's done his best to keep Tameka away," says the source. Another source told PEOPLE that Tameka has been focusing on keeping her family happy."
Electrifying conclusion: Guess the power of hatin' bitches all across the world proved unconquerable, haha!

Back From The Dead!

"T.E.C." is back by Anonymous request actually. I thought about it, and said, "Why the f-ck not?" David Carradine done killed himself doin' some real suspect sh-t. "Speidi" is wil' for the night out there. Lady Gaga has the music world captivated for reasons I can't understand. Jay-Z is back with a song I don't know how I feel about yet. There's a lot to talk about. Let's start concluding...

So David Carradine was found hanged to death in a Bangkok hotel. They cried suicide at first, but then remembered that they couldn't convince ANYONE with sense that white men go to Bangkok to do anything but engage in the most taboo of activities. And when it got out that his wrists and nuts and sh-t like that might've been bound together on some weird, possibly gay, Thailand-type sh-t, they decided not to try and play us. His famalams threatened to sue after finding out that some Thai publication released a pic of the hanging body. Turns out the pic was fake.

Electrifying conclusion: His publicist said that the death was definitely "accidental." I'm sure it was. Nigga aint intend on dying. He probably did a buncha strange sh-t and accidental died during said strange sh-t. He was famous, but not that famous anymore, and it's always funny how those types of stars become crazy famous after doing some dumb sh-t, you know? Remember, O.J. wasn't that famous anymore when he started murdering white couples. Phil Spector, Robert Blake, they weren't all that A-List at the time they started killing women, feel me? Now David will always be known for this instead of bad acting on "Kung Fu" and deliciously bad acting in "Kill Bill."

I love it when I get new batteries for my toothbrush and it's rip-roarin' again. Makes me feel like my mouth gets cleaner.

Where'd Lady Gaga come from? Her voice is ultra-annoying, though her songs are a bit catchy. The fact that she seems like a mega-slut is appealing, I guess. She has two Top 10 singles right now, "Poker Face" and "Love Game," while her former #1 "Just Dance" is still all over the airwaves. Plus her album is over 1 million copies, and in the top 5 after 8 months. Success and publicity-wise, she's certainly following in the footsteps of the person she most obviously is channeling - Madonna.

Electrifying conclusion: Gaga is a phenomenon of mediocrity. I actually think Katy Perry (who I have a secret crush on) is SO much better. A more interesting voice and slutty look than Lady. Doesn't it sound like either Britney (who's "If U Seek Amy" is better than anything by Lady Gaga) is imitating Gaga now, or Gaga is making the music she thinks Britney should be making?

I just might go see "Hangover." Just saw "Seven Pounds" - wow. Just saw "Righteous Kill" - ehh. Just heard Jay-Z's "D.O.A. (Death of Autotune)." First time I heard it was live, and I, for some dumb reason, though that was the actual recording. I thought it was amazing and risky. Then I heard the regular recording and lost much enthusiasm. It's good, not great. But like Swift and Cav said, it's more like an instructional piece. It's good stuff.

Spencer Pratt (I won't give his rap album any more light than this sentence right here) might be the smuggest person on earth right now. And Heidi may very well be the most annoying blond since, God rest her soul, Anna Nicole. What will their kid be like? But check it- they said they were "tortured" - literally - by NBC execs. TMZ reports, "We've learned Heidi was rushed to the hospital and diagnosed with a gastric ulcer after being held with hubby Spencer Pratt in a dark room for a day and a night with only water, rice and beans. It was designed as punishment because they left the show. One cast member described their treatment this way: 'It's the same as Guantanamo Bay.'"

Electrifying Conclusion: C'mon now. Torture is watching this show for more than 30 seconds, know that all they would have to contribute to the good of mankind is a flash of Heidi's tits - wait, at least they're self aware. Heidi's scheduled to be nude in an upcoming issue of Playboy.

This Is An Honorable Death...

...because you were my first. I don't count Friendster and MySpace; those were like french kisses, ass-smooches, and titty-sucks. Gave me a rise, but not the release I need. But you, T.E.C., you let me in whenever I wanted, and you were all about me and what I wanted to do. No pretty profiles or photo albums. With you it was always about being forward, not displaying faux-wit. You let me get my rocks off each and every time, exactly how I needed to, and for that, I will forever be greatful. Your spirit will live on in "I Think I Love My Life." R.I.P.

Lifes All About Making The Right Choices, Even For Celebrities


Seems like things have went downhill, music-wise, for Fitty ever since he challenged Kanye to 9/11 hip-hop supremacy last year, huh? I mean, dude is still worth a cool quarter-billion and rising, but he's just not putting out the hits anymore. That "Get Up" joint is not making many folks want to do such a thing at all, and with a new 'Ye album led by 2 monster singles ("Love Lockdown" and "Heartless") as well as albums from Jay, Luda, Beyonce, and other 4th quarter heros on the horizon, Fifth's label thought it better to push his album into 2009. Check it - http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003891313.

Electrifying conclusion: No matter what he might get on the radio and/or internet and say, don't let him fool ya into thinking "Before I Self Destruct" was pushed back for any reason other than niggas aint checkin' for him right now. Doesn't mean he's washed; 50 could drop a hot joint right now and I'll dedicate my next blog to him. But his last few singles have paled in comparison to the monsters he was unleashing in previous years. This is a very real example of corny songs being reflected in an artist's weak sales. He'll do a nice number, as always, and kill 'em overseas, but no more of that 800,000 to 1,000,000. Nope. And don't blame the sales climate. We're seeing from artists like Wayne, AC/DC, Coldplay, and others that those huge weeks still exist (at least in the first week) for artists who make dope music.

My wife wants to believe that he's only doing it for publicity because my wife finds him cute, thus doesn't want to see him do anything that will make him less attractive in her eyes. Women are weird like that. Actions can make a guy less appealing to them. Whatever. I don't wanna believe it because I don't wanna see him go out like that. I wanna believe he's only doing it to keep milking that fine heiffer's tits without buying the cow for a li'l bit longer, until he gets tired of her and finds a real white girl to fuck with. You know, one that doesn't exclusively fuck with black guys. 'Cause those are the authentic ones. Somebody needs to tell Reggie that a blond, debutante, Taylor Swift lovin', daughter of the revolution comes with the contract. You don't wife Kim maaan! Look at Kim - she was built to be a jumpoff! This is what I'm talking about, by the way - http://tv.msn.com/tv/article.aspx/?news=339789&GT1=BUZZ3

Electrifying conclusion: Like that fountain of wisdom Camron Giles said a decade ago, "You the type of cat wanna marry your lover/ Go to the end of earth for her, like Mario's brother..." These niggas nowadays kill me with their thoughts of proposals and engagements, and marriages, and the like. What happened to being a playa for life?! And it's not that someone has fucked his girl before. I mean, who among us, with any sense of decency, has wifed a virgin after turning 21 years old? Not many. Its that someone named Ray J (who I fux with, which should make it all the more intolerable) has his girl sucking all types of schlong and taking all types of cock in her slit on camera. For the world to see. You just know mad athlete/rapper/singer/actor cocks have become acquainted with Kim's quim. And something made Reggie say, "That's the vagina I want to spend the rest of my life with." *Sigh* For him to make up for this, he's gonna have to be, like, the first nigga to get at Malia Ann Obama when her pops leaves office in 2016 and she becomes legal and a bit more accessible. (Too much? Damn, I guess this is where the Men in Black shut my whole internet game down. Oh well, I had fun!)

Random thoughts: New York teams are improving my quality of life! After a huge baseball letdown, the Giants, Jets, and Knicks are giving us something to look forward to this winter. Don't break my heart, Knicks! Brett, sorry I doubted you!...Does Seal have a new joint out?...Make me see a James Bond movie... I aint know Wanda Sykes was gay, but I can see it, I guess - http://tv.msn.com/tv/article.aspx/?news=339709&GT1=28103..... Make me care about Jen Aniston's beef with Angelina Jolie...I'm crushed about the fact that "True Blood" only has 3 episodes left (or is it 2?). Where the hell is "Tell Me You Love Me," by the way?...My birthday is Wednesday (right?). Still in my 20s. Barely. Still loving every moment. Living the dream people. Living the dream.

Like Monica Asked, I Aint Take It Personal, It Was Just One Of Those Days

After lunch, the kids were hype and the usual childish nonsense ensued, but at least they were hype to play Social Studies Jeopardy in preparation of the big test on Wednesday and Thursday. I steered clear of adults, so we avoided any incidents that would have turned this blog into "The Dope Show, Revisited" (that's a throwback for the folks who've been following me since a coupla years back on the MySpace blog). Anywho, at the risk of making this blog too much about me and not enough about the famous and infamous people I judge, let me just let you know about this cool show I have coming up (yes, I'm still a rapper, a pretty good one at that - this show marks the re-establishment of my position and return to form as a writer, rapper, and performer, as long as we don't get the shitty mics, aren't cut off halfway through out set, and I don't get that weird dry-mouth thing I started getting after they put a crown on one of my teet a year or 2 back; ugh, that was a killer @ the SUNY-Purchase show).

Some Days Start Better Than Others

Hey folks, this is my first time writing from my new gig as 5th Grade Special Education teacher in my beloved adopted borough, The Bronx. This blog originated out of the frustration and boredom I suffered at my previous job as Attendance Improvement/Dropout Prevention coordinator at a high school in the great borough of Brooklyn. Anyway, today finds me keeping my perspective and my smile even though it's only 10 am, and so far I've been met with the following obstacles:

- A broken passenger window on my Jeep. Fools aint take a damn thing b/c the radio isn't removable. They left me with nothing but shattered glass. Knew it would happen sooner or later b/c they do this to cars quite often. We park under a bridge by 87. By our building, the last building on Sedgwick Avenue. The only thing close to it is...a police precint. Go figure. I'm thinking it's an inside job, to get us to pay for a parking spot in our gentrified, overpriced apartment building. It might work. I'll let you know.
- A moody school secretary. Is there any other kind? I'm giving in my direct deposit information, and she's like, "Put it in my mailbox," which is a conditioned response to everything anyone asks her. After taking 10 seconds to not find her mailbox, I left in on her desk. Politely. Not wanting to help me will only make me ask for more help, for some reason.
- A p.a. system that gives me announcements for the other school in my building instead of mine. So I get useless interruptions instead of useful information. I go to the aformentioned school secretary for help, and I get a nice "Put it (the custodial request form) in his mailbox." But I was a step ahead. I filled out two. One for his mailbox (I've called, left it in the office, talked to a janitor, and talked to the principal), and one for her desk. After explaining my plight, not so nicely, all she could say was, "Oh, ok." They've had enough halo from Mr. Collins here. Time for the horns.
I'm sure my day will turn. I'll update you later.

Bet you didn't think about this when signing up for Facebook, high-schoolers: Colleges are looking at your pages to make judegements about you. Don't be too upset. I've judged folks by far less. Anyway, this is what I read on MSN.com: "The Wall Street Journal's September 16 edition featured an article titled "College Applicant, Beware: Your Facebook Page is Showing" that, with the help of a survey by Kaplan, finally confirmed the truth -- people, all kinds of people, are interested in an individual's cyber self. This new survey included feedback from 320 selective schools, of which 10 percent use social-networking sites to evaluate applicants, a fair amount of whom admit to being negatively influenced by what they find."

The Electrifying conclusion: You know you gotta change that AIM name. Because it's right there on your page, and the adjective that's in front of your nickname may reveal what kind of drunken, whorish things you're gonna do once you're in collge, but you gotta get in first. You might wanna do like I did when I interviewed for my job by covering my Black Supremacy tats, then exposing them to my principal right after I got hired. In other words, front for what you want, and when you get in, go in, so to speak. Those privacy settings are too easy to get around. Also, you may wanna evaluate your "Wall," (especially if you're my friend) you "Gifts," (I see too many thongs) and other applications.
