Really?

Okay, we all know that Kim Kardashian has a big ass, she has pretty much made a “career” of it. But when I saw this picture of her in the Dominican Republic with her boyfriend Reggie Bush, I have to admit, I was kind of surprised. I know the camera can add 10 pounds but how many cameras are trained on that thing? I believe the proper term is “Badunkadunk.”

Weezy Baby – lyric of the week

Lil’ Wayne is hot to death, every track he is on sells better and his solo songs just kill it.  So in order to spread the gospel of Weezy with those who aren’t up on him yet, I have decided to take it upon myself and post some of his dope lyrics here.  This week’s selection is from the “Walk it Out Freestyle” off of Da Drought 3 Mixtape.

The microphone wet cause my words like seduction/and when we on the jet you don’t come up in discussion/and if you say you ballin’, we probably don’t trust ya/and I know plenty freaky hoes that probably won’t fuck ya/even if you payin, boy, they probably won’t fuck ya/only if I say that she can touch you like busta/but she might touch ya and burn ya like usher/me and my click we in red like blusha/I shit these rappers out and sometimes I forget to flush ya/grand daddy purp or bubble kush crush ya/explode in a bitch mouth like a gusher/cash money, young money check the production/I am just a martian get prepared for abduction

If you haven’t yet, check out Lil’ Wayne.  All he does is drink cough syrup, smoke blunts and spit fire.  

this is why I never eat at Wendy’s

Note to self, NEVER EVER eat at Wendy’s in Florida. Well to be totally safe you should never eat at Wendy’s at all, I mean how can you trust a square hamburger?? But that is beside the point.

On Tuesday a 60 year old handyman identified as Alburn Edward Blake entered a West Palm Beach area Wendy’s and went straight to the restroom. This should have triggered immediate suspicion as most people have to hit the bathroom immediately after eating at Wendy’s. Blake exited the restroom and without warning fatally shot Rafael Vasquez, a paramedic who was just exchanging a kid’s meal toy. Blake then proceeded to fire more than 20 rounds throughout the restaurant wounding 4 more people before shooting himself in the head. Authorities still do not know what set this guy off, but most people are pretty sure that it is because he got too many of those gross brown crispy fries that no one likes.

OR, maybe he did not get enough condiments like this guy. Last May some totally stable individual was arguing with the drive through guy at a Miami Wendy’s because he wanted 10 packets of chili sauce and the limit supposedly was 3. Mr. Crazy eventually got the 10 packets that he wanted, but now he tasted victory (and delicious chili sauce) and decided to press his luck and demand even more. When the manager came to the window to inform Mr. Crazy that he got 10 and that is way more than he was supposed to, he responded in the rational way anyone would…he shot the manager in the arm. Mr. Crazy then fled away, chili sauce safely in tow. This may seem insane to you, but try Wendy’s chili sauce and tell me you wouldn’t do the same thing. One taste and you think you saw God.

“I’m going to Baby-Sit your vagina”

The new season of Human Giant, the MTv sketch comedy show, is premiering on March 11th. Although in most instances MTv makes me want to hit myself in the head with my own shoe, I have seen many episodes of this show from last season and it is actually quite hilarious [it also gets points for having a Death From Above 1979 song as its theme-music. Rawk.]. Either way, here is a sneak preview of a skit from the new season, starring the show’s cast [Aziz Ansari, Rob Huebel and Paul Scheer] and Will Arnett, of Arrested Development fame, among other things. I really don’t how they are going to be able to broadcast this on basic cable, but I am grateful. NSFW.

Sorry Mom.

“Ghosts” Frighten the Music Industry

In what is still news to many people, NIN’s Trent Reznor released a new 36-track instrumental album two days ago, entitled Ghosts. Why is this interesting or relevant you ask? Well, our friend Trent has taken Radiohead’s “I plan on releasing this album on my own” model a few steps further and given the consumer multiple different options for acquiring his music.

First, there is the option to download (for free) the first 9 tracks of the album; there is also a $5 option to download all 36. The next step up is a payment of $10, which gets you 2 audio CD’s and a digital booklet with artwork, etc. For $75, you would receive a fabric slipcase with both audio CD’s, a Data DVD containing all the multi-tracked recording sessions from EVERY song (meaning you are free to mess around with everything and create you own remixes [fellow DJ's rejoice!]) as well as a Blu-ray disc containing hi-definition audio and an accompanying slideshow [potheads rejoice]. The most outrageous option (not only because of the cost but because it has already SOLD OUT OF ALL 2500 COPIES) carries a $300 price tag; you receive everything previously mentioned, along with:

• every track on 4 pieces of heavyweight vinyl
• a hard-bound book containing 48 pages of photographs of “visual aesthetic accompaniments to the music from the recording process and outside world”
• a second hard-bound book containing two exclusive, limited edition art prints of imagery from the music

…and, on the package, a hand written autograph from Trent.

Whether or not you think this is kind of overkill, understand that in selling out the deluxe packages alone (considering he is releasing this all by himself without the help of ANY record company/distributor), he has already made, in the past two days…..$750,000.00

This is both completely ridiculous and magnificent at the same time; Reznor truly is paving the way for a new revolution in the music industry. Though I do find this quite inspiring, as a Recording Engineer, this new DIY model pretty much scares the hell out of me. I make a living by working in a high budget studio, where the [remaining] big record labels pay gobs of money to churn out popular music. When the industry takes its final nose-dive, I might have to find a new career path. Scary.

black like him…wait, what?

In his new movie “Tropic Thunder” Robert Downey Jr. is going to be…wait for it…BLACK! (Or African-American if you are an overly sensitive jackass who prefers the politically correct statement). Actually, to be more specific, Downey Jr. will be playing an actor who is playing a black actor. So really, in this film, Robert Downey Jr. is a white actor, who is playing a white actor, who is playing a black actor…how is that for some meta-acting, shit makes your head spin. (is there anything actors can’t do? they are perfect in every way, as long as we forget about drug and alcohol arrests and overall douchebaggery)

Anyway, this seems utterly ridiculous to me. For the life of me I cannot picture Downey Jr. as an African-American. I don’t care what the Hollywood makeup people can do to Eddie Murphy
(no one sees those crappy movies anyway) I refuse to buy into this.

The film is co-written, directed and produced by Ben Stiller, who acknowledged this could be a challenge, but was optimistic about the reception the film will receive. “I had no idea how people would respond to it, but at a recent screening, black viewers liked the film.” Mr. Stiller then added, “I mean all five of the black people we paid to see it enjoyed themselves, and I’m pretty positive they were the spokespeople for the race, one of them even had on FUBU!“

At least Robert Downey Jr. seems to know the chance he is taking. “If you don’t do it right, we’re going to hell” he said. Well this guy did it right, we will just have to wait and see about Robbie’s foray into blackness. Something tells me that this movie will go about as well as his first stint in rehab, I mean come on, who can kick cocaine and valium the first time, that shit is fun.
