Thieves in the night- Animated Music Video (Paint)

omg this is sooooo dope

maybe i was wrong

So I was one of the people hating on "the breakup." I guess I was looking for a "wedding crashers" Vince Vaughn and a .....well, ima plead the fif on Jennifer Aniston.

life has taught me that sometimes...well...shit just don't always work out (wow, I can believe "heart of the matter" is playing as I write this...fun-ny) not trying to say that love at first sight is unattainable, or that love actually does work out...but I understand the alternative. gosh I feel like I’ve said this recently:::smile::: upon hearing john legend's "get lifted" for the first time I automatically knew "ordinary people" was going to be a hit, but I loved it for the obvious reasons...the lyrics "we're just ordinary people" I feel like so often we fall in love with these fairy tale stories of love that we lose sight of what love actually is. And once struggle and hard work in a relationship comes along we don't know how to cope because "they" always live happily ever after.

wait where was I....oh "the breakup" yeah so, it was a good movie after all. I was so caught up in wanting things to work out for the better, in which I equated “good ending” with them getting back together, that I totally lost the whole meaning in the movie. They both hindered each other from growth, in the relationship as well as individuals. And it was a “happy ending” both of the characters were able to develop their own self without the selfish limitations they had placed on each other. The breakup also allowed each of them to see their own “ugly self” yeah, Vince was a likeable guy, but dude was an asshole when he didn’t get his way and Jennifer had that “I’m not going to say it, because you are suppose to know it even though I never told you anyway” mentality.

This movie allowed growth to take place instead of happily ever after, which in turn gave fate a way to intervene once both were able to establish a healthier self apart from on another.


So we have the national guard patrolling our city. Yeah so ima leave that one for conversations for the sake of incriminating myself. FIF!!!!!!


Have you heard Field Mob’s latest “Light Poles and Pine Trees”?????
Dope.
People have been sleepin on them but I remember the first time I heard “All I know” dopeness, and I don’t care what nobody says…them dudes is on point. My favorite song on the new joint is “blacker the berry” I’m all about the self love, shout out to pac

Speaking of Pac, I was listening to Makaveli the don killuminati the 7 day theory cd…well itunes the other day and I forgot how dope this dude really was so then I brought the Me against the world tunes and it just brought me back. Now I’m not even going to go into the pac/biggie thing, or that this dude was a genius and the best rapper. But dude was dope. At 13/14 I could relate to every one of those songs on Me against the world, from “death around the corner” cause I really still remember that ish “I know whats wrong with that crazy mutha fucker, he just stand by that got damn window with that fuckin a-k all day, he don’t work, he don’t fuck, he don’t do a gotdamn thing”…wow, where was my mom’s when I was listening to all thing???? Lmao. Naw but EVERY song on that joint was hot! OMG “Outlaw” was my ish…okay so I’m listening to my ipod now.

Naw, but I really feel sorry for these kids nowadays with this snap rap bullish. Haha you really thought The Black Album was Jigga’s dopest cd???? Check out Reasonable Doubt…better yet, check out that In My lifetime Vol. 1….sorry I had to blog the whole second verse…and I’m out:

“I'm from the place where the chruch is the flakiest

And niggas is praying to god so long that they Atheist

Where you can't put your vest away and say you'll wear it
tomorrow

Cause the day after we'll be saying, damn I was just with him
yesterday

I'm a block away from hell, not enough shots away from straight
shells

An ounce away from a triple beam still using a hand-held weight
scale

Your laughing, you know the place well

Where the Liqour Store's and the base well

And Government, fuck Government, niggas polotic themselves

Where we call the cops the A-Team

cause they hop out of vans and spray things

And life expectancy so low we making out wills at
eight-teen

Where how you get rid of guys who step out of line, your rep
solidifies

So tell me when I rap you think I give a fuck who
criticize?

If the shit is lies, god strike me

And I got a question, are you forgiving guys who live just like me?

We'll never know

One day I pray to you and said if I ever blow, Let 'em know

Mistakes ain't exactly what takes place in the ghetto

Promise fulfilled, but still I feel my job ain't done

Cough up a lung, where I'm from, Marcy son, ain't nothing nice

I'm havin' a private party...my antiDOPES for the week

this quote...so dope
"Former California Governor Ronald Reagan once vowed that Angela Davis would never again teach in the University of California system. Today she is a tenured professor in the History of Consciousness Department at the University of California, Santa Cruz."

this cd


and this tea

"Let's take a trip down memory, lane at the cemetery

Meet the parents..." (c) Hov again

untitled 1

what the hell is up with the links on the side of my page????? oh well.

I think giving some people the benefit of the doubt is sometimes a way you set yourself up?

I used to think that all people eventually grew out of childish behavior, cattyness, just that dumb high school shit you look back on and wonder how you could be so petty. some people never pass this phase...in their lifetime.

I'm not one of those people...but don't make me remind you where i'm from!

sorry blog family...just gots some ish on my mind

damn, how many times does law & and order come on????? no really?????

and for the people who wonder what's going on in New Orleans almost a year after Katrina...Legalized price gouging...this shit is ridiculous.

People, if you're going to stay in New Orleans...HAVE A PLAN. I don't only mean for hurricane season. Shit, do something with your life. There's a lot of blaming to do for the condition of institutions in New Orleans pre and post Katrina but there is also a certain amount of personal responsibiliy that we have to be accountable for...myself included. Go to a Common Ground meeting, log on to nolafugees.com website. An individualistic approach isn't going to help rebuild New Orleans. It will take a community. Nobody said this will be easy, shit, i know i face roadblocks everyday...but a New orleans for all is an attainable goal. I SEE IT!!!!!!


but on some other ish....so when is the finale of Run's house gonna air?????? cause he's having a season premier, i just didn't know the last season was over?????

oh wow, making the band is back!!!!! well it aint fred, babs, dylan, choppa, sara "ain't hip hop", ness but it'll due

d-a-b-a-n-ddddddddddddddd!!!!!!!!!!!

let's see

Meetings have sucked every piece of life out of me. Today I had a pre-mtg., a mtg that lasted 2 hours and a post-meeting and a follow up email that cc'd everyone in the mtg.

:::exhale::: and hump day is ova!

I’ve been making some grownasswoman decisions lately...the housewarming is soon...to be continued...

Gosh, I feel like my life consists of the drama of the workplace and that's where it ends. I’m like the invisible (wo)man...shot out r. ellison, from the hours of 5pm-7am. Nothing seems worth writing.

lets see...yesterday I bought dave chapelle's block party and watched that ish twice...cause it was just that dope...jill scott is the ish.
period
sometimes I hate kweli's voice live. I know he's hype and all but it's just hard to understand.

but other than that I respect that concert. watching it makes me feel refreshed, I can see that the artists are REALLY friends, and its not that let me act cool while the cameras are on. I love when jill scott gives erykah badu her props but recognizes her own "queendom" (c) jill scott.

so usher came to new orleans to help huh????



nice shirt

...Round 3 for gentrification in New Orleans

this is what i call a vacation

last weekend i didn't wake up til 10, chilled in my pajamas, ate coco pebbles, didn't check a work email

I love simple days.

...but i gotta go back to the real world

Bitter Sweet - Kanye West - Def Poetry

i thought this was suppose to be on late registration with john meezy????

you get it???

yeah....so i made this shirt today

i think it's dope 

I left 3 days ago, but no one seems to know I’m gone

So it might not be such a bad idea, if I never went home again…I know it’s past visiting hours:::pauses ipeezy:::

okay after rethinking my previous post about the season finale of the sopranos, yeah i can agree with you cuz. it's the calm before the storm...but uhhhh who wants to wait until....to find out???

so i went to the roots/kweli concert last night and it was tight. i think the club was too big though. i enjoy the smaller more intimate venues like the hob. uhhhh i wish someone has a concert there so i don't have to drive all the way to Houston...well that’s only for 2 more months.

i was supposed to go back to New Orleans today but i decided to spend another day down here. i just wanted to enjoy the relaxation. i haven't even checked my work email (that's a good feeling to have until Tuesday morning when i have over 100 new msgs....and i am not exaggerating, nor will that number include junk emails)

ahhh so i saw the da Vinci code. it was okay. i didn't read the book. don't really wanna. but it was a decent movie.

i saw mike's blog about the breakup...lmao i need to go see that within the next week or i will never go

wow. went to the breakfast klub in houston. so on point. katfish and grits (don't knock it til u try it) it was sooooooooooooo on point. it was so funny cause kweli was free styling about the breakfast klub

"i am not my hair" but i got the baddest* haircut and color i have ever gotten in my entire life

*and by bad i mean hella good

i think i was brainwashed by the waiter at houstons. i feel like i always order fruit punch at houston's to drink. so when i ordered it this time the waiter was all like "uhhh we don't serve fruit punch but i can mix some orange & cranberry juice" so i was all like "really??? ya'll have never served fruit punch?" and he was all like "naw but do you want some water with lemon" and i was all like "we'll maybe i do want water with lemon" then my cuz just told him to mix the fruit punch.

it was muy Buena (lol at mike’s blog)

Jill Scott & the Roots - You got Me

this is more for me than it is for you but....DON'T WORRY!!!!
