we didn't shake on it, so....

Around this time last year I made a bet with my friend Destiny that Wale's debut album would come out within the next year. She was convinced that it wouldn't, and I was offended. Needless to say, a year has passed and I'm still here twiddling my thumbs, patiently waiting. Even though I lost the (unofficial) bet, I'm still really proud of the progression that he's made in the past 12 months and I honestly to consider it an L. Perfection takes time and I really hope I'm not setting myself up for disappointment by saying that. Everything in due time. We'd hate for him to rush the release of his album just because like some artists do *cough*AsherRoth*cough*.

His first single "Chillin" with Lady Gaga hit the radio about a month ago and the video is due out soon.



70,000 fo' that ass!

Still reading KTH, eh? I don't get it. Even though I only show my face once in a blue moon like taxi cabs in North Philadelphia, you still continue to check on me. I'm not going to pretend like I understand why you do it... but thank you. Sincerely.
Lets make it another 70,000, shall we?

yeezy videos.

I love the songs. The videos are poop.

The Dream Feat. Kanye West - Walking On The Moon


Kanye West - Paranoid


UPDATE: I just read on Kanye's blog that the uber-boring version of "Paranoid" above is not the one he intended for the world to see. Apparently, after this one was made he was satisfied with the turnout (no s**t) and filmed another, more cinematic version. Good thing. There's nothing interesting about a fully dressed Rihanna. Wait... no. That was wrong. I apologize.

this is a band...

I'm well aware of the fact that by now, more than half of my readers (if I still have readers) have downloaded this mixtape and are already over it. Due to the long, unexpected hiatus that however, I never posted it with a couple of my thoughts on the project...

This is by far the best altogether mixtape I've heard in a while. The concept is so in depth that it even dictates the order of the tracks. Every single song is incredible in my opinion except for maybe two that I could have done without. The skits are hilarious and actually make sense, as opposed to some mixtapes/albums where the skits just seem random and unnecessary. Even the front and back covers are relevant. I've been playing this for a month straight. If you haven't, I advise you to "get familiar."

NSFW...

I mean, it is safe for work but if anyone walks by it'd be foolish of you to not expect them to ask "What the f**k are you watching?" It's hypnotizing, nonetheless. Kinda like softcore porn only not as frustrating.

"Hit me! Hit me!"

Okay, so there are two things that I learned from this video clip:
  1. Not all poetry is spoken.
  2. Charles Hamilton is incapable of multitasking.

well alright then.

I mean... I really don't even know what I'm supposed to say. Rumor has it that this is how female cricket players in Panama get down.
WHO KNEW?!

I'm currently listening to the Cool Kids "Gone Fishing" mixtape in its entirety and I must say that its pretty good. I've been cool with the Cool Kids since I first heard them but I was completely convinced when I saw them perform at the Rock The Bells concert last summer. I remember it vividly: Donovan and I were on the lawn chiefin and drink beer that we snuck in, when out of nowhere we hear the crowd by the small stage go crazy. We decided to walk over to see what all the hoopla was about and the Cool Kids were on stage KILLING s**t. I've been a fan ever since.

So far this mixtape is pretty damn good so I highly suggest downloading it. I'm quite pleased.

i'm waaaaaayyy late.

Santogold - Lights Out

sunday afternoon.

no comment.

I don't have that many celebrity crushes. There are a couple that really do it for me but besides that select few, celebrities aren't really my thing. Except for celebrity nip-slips. For some reason those crack me up. One celeb that I've had the meanest crush on since my first pube is Eva Mendes. She's absolutely gorgeous to me. And now she's naked. Thank you.

I don't think she realizes that she really doesn't need an excuse for being naked. I can't really imagine anyone asking "Why are you naked, Ms. Mendes?" I just can't.

set your tivo.

I'll definitely be watching this tonight. I hope it lives up to my expectations and I'm pretty sure it will.

Lebron James on 60 Minutes tonight at 7 on CBS

mike tv.

I feel like recently I've been watching a lot more TV than I have in a really long time. Don't know if that's a bad thing or not, but I'm pretty sure it is. In my defense however, I've been watching mostly Law and Order and Cash Cab and no BET. If you didn't already know, I can't stand BET. It's the worst stations ever and hopefully it'll be shut down someday soon. Call it 'wishful thinking'.
Anyway, since I've raised my television intake, I have to watch tons of commercials. More than I'd care to. Every so often I'll catch a one that literally makes me laugh out loud.
Below are the three that I could actually remember.

Of these new Cheetos commercials, I believe the first that I remember seeing was the one where the chick puts the Cheetos in dryer at the laundromat. That was okay I guess but I didn't go off talking about it afterward. This commercial is f**king hilarious to me. Okay, maybe not the whole thing, but the way the white lady says "Hola Banessa" kills me.


So Hippie doesn't like the E*Trade commercials with the baby but personally, I think they're kinda cool. I saw this one for the first time last night while I was watching the Duke v. Villanova and I laughed so hard I choked on my food. The dialogue between the two babies is hilarious and the black baby's faces are priceless, epecially at :24.


Again, its the facial expressions that make this commercial so funny to me. The difference is, this n**ga doesn't have a face. How he does it, I'm really not sure.
