"COOOOL KIIIDDDSSS!"

Dizzy knows what I'm talking about.
LMAO!

shroomage.

That's all I'm gonna say about this one.
Someone was clearly rollin when they made this.

that's life.

I just realized that Dove has come out with some really good commercials. In terms of women's self esteem and being comfortable in your own skin, Dove definitely gets the point across. There are multiple ways they could have done their advertisements but I like that they decided to take an artistic approach. The first one make me scared to have a daughter. Seriously.

This is a pretty interesting. Apparently this guy Louis Theroux thought it would be a good idea to ride around with police officers through North Philadelphia's roughest neighborhoods and film a documentary for BBC2. Smart, right? Personally, I feel like people talk about the hood or being from the hood that its actually been watered down for sake of conversation. The world is a f**ked up place. Especially America, the self proclaimed "greatest nation in the world."

I guess I posted this because being a Temple student obviously means that most of my time is spent in North Philadelphia, and 50% of my friends live on the exact blocks driven through on the film. This is the first of 6 parts and if your interested, the rest can be found on youtube as well.

Here's the article...

green never looked so good.

that. just. happened.

If you've never gotten your ass whooped in beer pong by me and Dizzy, come through tonight. Trust me. Its an experience worth having. We're thinking about going on tour. Shattering dreams on college campuses all over the east coast. lol.


never left. we're always right.


See you there.

delish.

So here's the thing... in America its extremely common to rate things or give them some type of rating. For instance, you see a bad jont at a party, she's a ten. Scutter-butts get a 5. Majority of my exes, an 8. Well here on KTH, I'd like to start giving you my personal ranking of different things that I post. And since apparently I'm known for keeping a cold Heinekin in my tool belt, I present you with the HEINEY AWARD.



Its a very simple concept. If something I post is decent, it gets one Heiney. Not that bad, two. Enough to impress your moms, 3. Kinda crucial, a whopping 4 Heiney's.
Got it? Good. Let's get into the extremes now.

If it absolutely sucks and for some reason I posted it anyway, it get an

That's right. A f**kin O'doul's. For those of you who don't know, O'doul's is non alcoholic beer. Uhhh... right. However, if its the one of the greatest things ever in the history of the world it gets


Nuff said.
Enjoy.

no strings attached.

First, I'd like to apologize for the 'N Sync reference but I went to private school in the suburbs my whole life and they used to be the s**t to me. Moving on...

I found this video on herfection yesterday and I was so close to not watching it. That is, until I realized that it was Coldplay and it was new. Started watching it and realized I could't stop until it was over, which is rare with me and videos I find on blogs. Sometimes I just lose interest before it's over and I'm sure its the same with some of you. Anyway, an old lady friend of mine was a pretty big Coldplay fan so she kinda got me hip to them. I wouldn't embellish and call myself a fan necessarily, but I do like some of their s**t. The video is good though and actually just gave me an idea...

Coldplay - Life in Technicolor II

knights of columbus!!!

Read the article, too. It's short and hilarious.

third time's a charm.

Jay-z explains why he's taking his time on Blueprint 3 and working on other s**t.

you and me baby aint nothin but mammals.

In the past couple of months I've been blessed with the opportunity to spend virtually every waking moment with the members and founders of AnmlHse. I distinctly remember the first time I went to the old apartment in Center City, which was lavishly decorated with jean stains on the wall, more empty bottles than I have fingers and toes, and a couch in the bathroom that I wouldn't suggest putting even your coat on, much less your body. My friendship with these cats since August makes me think of countless memories that I will forever store in my "Sigh... Good times" folder in my mind. Memories like $20 strippers found on craigslist in the basement, couches on fire in the back alley, passing out in the diner then somehow waking up only to sing "Beauty" by Dru Hill, then falling back asleep, etc. And this is when they lived in the nice part of town.

To everyone's surprise, s**t escalated when they moved to North Philly, right outside of Temple's campus. That is now my home away from home, and due to many nights of sleeping on couches or someone's floor, I've been named an honorary roommate. Its bad to point where while I was at the Stussy Inauguration party (yeah, the one I said I wasn't going to a couple posts ago), a complete stranger walked up to me at the bar and said "Oh s**t. What's good you ol' AnmlHse ass n**ga?" before dapping me up. All I could do was laugh.

Now I'll forgive you if you live in Philly and you've never been to one of their parties, but if you've never heard of them... you are literally the last of a dying breed. For those of you who dont know how we get down, let me bring you up to speed...




the next pic reminds me of how great a photographer i am...









So now that you know what you've been missing, make sure you go to the next party this Saturday at Made To Order. S**t is guaranteed to be insane... as usual.

yet again.

It doesn't make sense to me why Ryan Leslie is so good.
Honestly.

you dont say...

Happy Birthday to Stacey Dash...
Who turned 43 today.

dc has been crazy for the past 4 days.

Wish I could make it but the semester starts on Tuesday and I gotta get my mind right. If you go, take pictures for me please. 'Preciate it.

sounds good.

I don't have a problem with good songs being sampled as long as they're done well and do the orignal justice. For instance, I'm sure that by now all of you have noticed that the song that plays in the background on this page was sampled for Nas' song One Love off of Illmatic. Good music is good music at the end of the day so I really dont mind tasteful sampling.

The two videos below are both good in my opinion and for some reason I just thought about them while I was in the kitchen a couple minutes ago.

Pharcyde - Runnin


Mya - Fallen

i'm so hungry. goin to the carryout.

Finally finished this a couple days ago. Its a great read. Starts slow but picks up eventually.
I highly recommend it.

CLICKITY CLOWWW!!!

CONGRATS TO MY PITTSBURGH STEELERS!

Ravens 13 - Pittsburgh 23

its go time.

Lets make it happen tonight.

This guy might be just a tad OD...


Better luck next time Philly.
And I mean that sincerely.

lol.

absolute classic.

I have four or five shoe boxes of CDs unber my bed back at home in Maryland. Due to the fact that I haven't touched the boxes in a couple years, they're all covered with dust and I've completely forgotten the majority of the CDs in them. For some reason though, I decided to flip through them the other day and was pleased to find Clipse's debut album Lord Willin'. I brought it with when I went to Philly with Nik and Dizzy the other day and we literally rapped every word to every song on it. I mean, songs that I had completely forgotten about I somehow still knew word for word. It's just a classic.
One of my favorites. Its hard to belive this came out 6 1/2 years ago.
Can't wait for Till the Casket Drops set to release March 17, 2009.

I always liked this track for some reason...

I cant wait for this to come out.

Amanda Diva is way badder than I thought she was.
Well I'll be damned...

Q-Tip ft. Amanda Diva - ManWomanBoogie

where they do that at?

Son!!! Imagine a Temple jont getting it in like this with a cherry and white bikini bottom.
How f**kin' funny would that be?!

age aint nothin but a number...

that's decent.

My boy Nik put me on to this song last night but only after he made me feel like I wasn't a true music lover for having never heard it before. The thing is, I think I have heard it, I just wasn't paying attention. I like it though.

Bruce Springsteen - Streets of Philadelphia

grace days...

When I was a kid I watched way too much TV. I didn't have any siblings to do fun "kid things" with and I went to private school all my life so I didn't really have friends from my neighborhood. But yeah, I was pretty much raised on TV. I distinctly remember watching Arthur til it was time to leave for school and Hey Arnold right when I got back. You probably did it too.

This is my absolute favorite opening credits song ever though.
Too bad I didn't know what the hell they were saying until the other day when I looked it up.


And one more thing... If you fall asleep watching Adult Swim on Cartoon Network and wake up around 9:30 or 10 and your TV's still on (like I did the other day), this next show just might be on. If so, wipe the crust out of your eye, smile to yourself, pour a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and watch the whole thing (like I did the other day).

LMAO!

i always loved PE...

I went to my boy's house last night to chill a little before we went out and when I got there he was watching Pineapple Express. When I went to see it at the movies over the summer I was a little "on" so I remembered laughing the entire time, but not really what I was laughing at. That s**t is hilarious. Funniest movie I've seen in a while. Its out on DVD now so I think I'm gonna go get it from Best Buy tomorrow... then copy it when I get home and return it back later that day.

Just kidding.

goode-ness gracious.

One day, pictures of Meagan Goode wont interest me anymore...

Today is clearly not that day.

yikes!

Kanye on the cover of February Issue of Vibe


...but why was this the first thing I thought of when I saw it?

"Scruff McGruff, Chicago Illinois, 60652"
I know you still remember that.

never a dull moment.

Some television station that no one's ever heard of called MTV is going to be doing some work at Mirrors in DC this Wednesday. I just got back up north from spending an interesting week in Maryland and coincidentally, I planned on going back on Wednesday. I suppose asking for one night to chill at home would be too much. Needless to say, I'll be there. Keep an eye out.
