Fedor vs. Arlovski Jan 24, 2009 at Affliction's "Day of Reckoning"

For those of you that follow the world of MMA, Fedor Emelianenko is probably the best pound for pound fighter in the world. He completely dominates in the ring and he's a very down to earth guy out of it. He never talks shit, he just lets his fighting do the talking. Fedor hasn't been in action in awhile but come January 24th he will face off with Andrei Arlovski. Andrei isnt a bad fighter himself but I think Fedor has this in the bag. Arlovski's good but Fedor is much better. Check out the highlight reel of Fedor and you make a decision for his upcoming fight.

Late morning

Its currently 11:30am, I'm in my backyard sitting down with a steaming cup of coffee and a fresh pack of Marlboro lights. The sun is shining through the fading morning overcast and it is at the brink of noon. its a cool 62 degrees, and I'm wearing my favorite shirt, jeans, and some moccasins. The birds are chirping, traffic is bustling as i light my first one of the day. My dog is at my right and my cigarette in my left. There's no where I'd rather be right now.

Paradise found.

Cheers

Bart Extension - San Jose

Bart has plans to extend its service into 6 places in the South Bay. And out of those 6 locations, 4 are in San Jose. 1 would be located right off Santa Clara Street in downtown SJ, the others would be located, near the flea market, off of Alum Rock and near the Shark Tank. Other options are being looked into, for example CalTrain extensions of their electrified track transit system, which some say would provide a faster cheaper service to San Francisco. But as far as it goes for me, I would love any train, BART or CalTrain to come to San Jose, so we can make those trips out to SF a little less tedious. One of the other locations not located in San Jose would be, at the Great Mall in Milpitas. I'm excited.

King of the Burbz - Complex Correspondent

The self proclaimed "King of the Burbz" is now a correspondent for Complex. I was reading his article, and I must say, he is pretty well versed. However, I don't think I'll ever want to take political advice from some second rate, failed rap star. Let me know when you come out with something real to say. Then maybe I'll listen to you. Thanks homie!

Wu-Tang @ The Grand Ballroom

Spider vs. Bird

So I was browsing the internet, and I came across this photo gallery of a giant spider EATING A BIRD! That ish was nuts! I've come across a few random things like this. Last week I saw one where a spider ate a snake. I'm glad there aren't any spiders that eat humans, cause this one looks like a beast. I just thought I'd share this photo stream with you. Check it.

Nas has a show on Nov 28th at the Warfield. I don't know if I can even make it to this, but damn! I want to go. Nas is by far one of the best live performers out there. I remember seeing him perform a few years back at Rock the Bells and he killed it.

MP3 Experiment San Francisco

Mp3 Experiment San Francisco from ImprovEverywhere on Vimeo.

I subscribe to this blog called ImprovEverywhere, or anywhere or something like that. The blog was created by a comedian who wanted everyone to enjoy the small thigns in life and have fun. One of his many projects is the MP3 experiment, where basically you load a track onto your MP3 device, meet at a certain spot and do what the MP3 says. Here's a video, it really doesn't do it justice. But who's down next year?

History - Stoner Age

Does this look like a drug abuser? Heck yes. Recently archaeologists have discovered some evidence that our ancestors did drugs. Mostly hallucenogens, but nonetheless, they used them. And for those who smoke, I guess there is finally insight into when the first bowl was ever made. An estimated time of 400BC-100BC.

I came across this earlier today. The plans for the new 49er stadium, if passed, due 2013. I've been a niner fan for years. Yes they're not doing so well, but I'm just saying, they'll be good again one day. It has an estimated cost fof 2$ Billion. Ouch!

Maybe they'll be able to pay that off when they start getting a bit better.

McCain Propaganda

Is this really what we're resorting to now America? Low brow comments on our presidential candidates? Why is it that an election can no longer be won on the needs of America? That McCain and Palin need to push their smear campaign so hard, to the point that people are calling Barack a terrorist? What's next? Saying that every person not a white Anglo Saxon is inferior? I hate to take it that far folks, but let's just put it this way. I'm tired of people saying that Obama is a terrorist. That if he gets elected president, that it's the end of the world. Is the only way to win an election to instill fear in the hearts of Americans? First of all, we're not idiots, if McCain, or Obama mess up, we'll impeach them, not an easy process, but I'm sure as hell if Barack were really a terrorist he'd be out of the oval office faster than you can snap your fingers. Because I'm not looking for someone to tell me I should fear this or fear that. Where has that brought us? I want someone that brings about hope. I want someone with solid ideas on how to make America better, not to dig it into a bigger hole. America did not become a super power by bringing about fear, of terrorism or of anything for that matter. They became strong through perserverance, and hope. The thought that, great things can happen in America. Where's my American dream? You give me that McCain, maybe I'll vote for you. Maybe. Let's keep it clean, and focus on the issues, not what has happened, but what needs to happen, what's going to happen and how we as America can be better.

Jim Jones - Not on My Level

I know I was just talkin about beef earlier, but let me set some guidelines. Pac and Biggie, they were both on the same level. Lyricists to the highest degree. That's why that beef pulled weight. Now on the other hand, there are people that just say some dumb ass shit. Here it goes:

Take that Boston hat off homie, you're not a champion. I was reading an article, where they were talking to Jim Jones about T.I.'s Swagga Like Us track. Essentially what he went on about in the article was that

1. He doesn't see anyone in the hood, saying, "I want to be like T.I, Kanye or Jay-Z" but I guess he's heard people from the hood say they want to be like him.
2. That Nas, has not and never will be on his level.

It may seem like I took it out of context, but go look the original interview up. In a nutshell, that's what he said. So let me discuss these situations.

1. In the song, no one ever said that they were looked up to. They only said, that no one else had "swagga" like them. And if you look it up in the dictionary, it's not going to be there. But the way that I understand it is this. "Swagga" has nothing to do with people from the hood wanting to be with you. It has to do with the way you walk, the way you talk and the confidence in your stride. So homie, I don't need people to look up to me to have "swagga" It's something you just have.
2. Nas is not on your level? Yeah homie, he'll never be on your level because he won't ever come out with tracks like Ballin. So maybe he hasn't sold out, but that's why he's saying that hip-hop is dead, because if rappers like you. Ballin? homie please, you act like your the shit, when you're trying to come out frontin Jay-Z. Check this out, you don't make half the money Jay-Z does, and you don't come out with half the substance Nas does. So when you get to either of those levels go ahead and start calling people out.

Stay in your league homie, you should be wearin a Kansas City Royals hat son.

Argument Hour - Fat Joe Diss

H to the OV, Jay-Z came out with a diss track aimed at Fat Joe. Here is a follow up remix of the track

Download

let me just put it like this. Back when there was the East Coast/West Coast beef, there was some real ass hip hop coming out. Tupac had lyrics, and Biggie had some freestyle. But both of them, let me reiterate that, BOTH OF THEM, were geniuses in their own right. Part of that, was that they thrived off the competition. Biggie would call out Pac, Pac would call out Biggie, and I'm not one to really make assumptions but, I am sure as hell underneath all the hyped up drama, they were cool. Let me just put it like this, the drama was good for hip hop, but how far it went, was not good. Call people out, challenge them and see if they succeed. Survival of the fittest kids. Jay-Z may be one of the biggest sell outs in the biz, but you can't hate a fool for getting his, and on top of that, homie is more that just an MC, he's, "a BUSINESS man" For someone to do so much and still come up with lyrics that are relevant, ups for that. And for hating on Fat Joe, also. As Jay-Z put it, "Let's get back to making real music" and Fat Joe, that last song you came out with had absolutely NO SUBSTANCE! YADDIDAMEAN!

Macaframa Pics

Last Wednesday was the premier of the Macaframa movie. I didn’t get a chance to go but some members from B$ were in attendance. Another person who was in attendance was Mike Giant from Rebel8. He took some pictures from the premier so I decided to swoop on them. (Jerm wasn’t playing when he said “there was hella bikes there.”)

Best Rapper Alive

In a recent Vibe survey ranking the best rappers alive, Eminem topped the list. Let me just say this, I don't doubt his skills as a rapper, I don't doubt his abilities as a poet, but there are so many things to base this assumption on. And to be honest, his name doesn't come up atop any of these. If you want to talk freestyle, Supernat comes to mind. If you want to talk lyricist, Lil' Wayne, Mos Def, Talib and any number of other rappers come to mind. I'm not going to doubt Eminem, he is well versed but as far as best rapper alive goes. I'm sorry Vibe fans, you got this one wrong.
