Music, If that's what you wanna call it
Mood:  lazy
Like the ladies, this too is also declining. At least rap. Where do I start? Seriously, I'm cool with Kanye when it comes to what he does musically. My beef is with the 50 Cents (although he has a few okay joints) the Paul Walls, Young Joc, Busta's Touch it, Cam'Ron's Wet Wipes, Dem Franchise Boyz's Lean Wit it, Bubba Sparxx Ms. New B00ty and anything Pharrell calls himself singing on. What happen 2 the days of people actually trying 2 convey a point in their songs/ raps? I'm bout 2 go strictly R&B if so called rappers don't step it up. For the record, I'm feelin Jada, Eminem, Remy, Jae Hood, Cassidy, Fab, L. Banks, Kanye, Jay and Game to name a few.

Females
Mood:  mischievious
I love y'all, but let's be real, the female stock is on the decline. Again, hear me out before you start sending me hate mail and calling names. And I admit the males are on the decline too. But we've been that way for awhile now. Y'all have even gotten used 2 that. Some of you even seek out these fools. But what happen 2 the nice respectable girls (at least out in public) who you could bring home 2 mama? I know some of you are still out there, but they are few and far between. I've got no problem with how a girl wants 2 dress and all that. In fact, the less the better. I'm not talking about that; I'm talking about all the gold digger stuff. All the you owe me stuff, and I just met you yesterday. All the buy me this because I'm fine (and y'all are fine) stuff. All the four, five, and six kid stuff. Again, I've got no real problem with that and I applaud the single mothers who do what needs 2 be done 2 provide for their child or children. But don't expect me 2 provide for the little basterd(s) when I just met you.

Movie Prices
Mood:  sharp
These bammas have also lost their minds. I mean don't even get me started on popcorn costing about a car note and how just 2 look at a soda is a weeks pay; let's not even talk about all that. But now the movie viewing it self is costing you your whole bank account. Thank God for the college ID which gets you a discount some places, even if you graduated back in '02. I used to understand how people would say bootlegging is wrong and all that. But now... you mean I can get the same movie for like 6 dollars from Smitty in front of the liquor store and watch it in the privacy and comfort of my own home? And it's mine to keep!? So if I choose, I can watch it again? Or I can pay an arm and a leg to watch it at the theatre, with a crowd of strangers, yelling at the screen, talking on the phone, etc. The choice is obvious. But females ain't trying 2 hear that. "Boy you betta take me out! We can make it a block buster night some other time." Which brings me 2 the next topic.

Kanye "Give It A Rest" West
Mood:  lyrical
Let me clear up exactly how I feel about Kanye. As a rapper and producer and all that musical stuff, I'm a fan. Now where he and I part ways is with his tendency to go overboard. Now that might be the same thing that makes him create hits, so therefore I can't knock it if that's the case. If you accept a person you gotta accept them as a whole. Just like Mike Tyson. People loved him as a fighter, but then when you see that the man really does have serious problems, bammas turn their back on him and say, "he's wasting potential." You gotta take the good with the bad. Back to KW. At the heart of it, he's usually right about most of the issues he takes a stance on. But I repeat he goes too far with it. And the danger is, when you go too far with something, you risk losing whatever point it was you were trying to make. Example: he didn't win the award for best new artist and he threw a little rant afterwards. I understand this. He felt he was cheated. If you were cheated, would you be mad? Would you instead show class? That's not the right action 2 take in my opinion, because that just lets the cheaters continue 2 cheat, next time. You are then an enabler. So he was right to be mad and show his anger. But then he said "Don't put my name on the marquee so people can watch if I'm not going to be respected with an award. (I agree partly). The man should have won best new artist, the international a-hole, who complained about what he is owed. Then he went off on a tangent. "I'm the biggest thing in hip-hop. I deserved the award. Nobody has done it like this for hip-hop in years until now. I earned a spot at your little awards show so I could speak." That's what he said. See? He lost his message. Another time he said, "we sell the magazines. They put us on the cover and people buy because we are on there" (I agree). I stupidly just paid 4 bucks for a mag just because Keshia Cole (my other future wife...that's the last one, I promise) was on the cover. But he kept on. "I had one of the best cd's ever. Any magazine that doesn't give me a perfect rating (five mics) is bringing down their creditability." You just lost your point. Now people are going to dismiss you as an arrogant celebrity. Just like when he was with Austin Powers and he said "they gave them permission to go down and shoot us (Blacks)." And I'm not 100% sure if that was over the top or not, or that some of them bammas didn't deserved to be shot, out there raping and all that. But Kanye was saying that the masses and mainly the Bush administration, doesn't do what they should to aid the Black community. Bush was hiding and Kanye put a light on it and told everybody. But then he went too far and said GB doesn't care about Black people. See, that's too much; too extreme. Now since he threw that in there, all the people who want to support Bush and defend him can say "What? He does care about Blacks!" And they will then dismiss everything else he said. All the rest of it was the truth, but once you go overboard with it, people have an excuse to tune you out.

The DMV (How I Hate Thee)
Mood:  loud
Where do I begin this rant? I go 2 church and I try to keep the negativity outta my life. And there are two words I try not 2 use. One is "ugly" (when talking about looks). For the most part, you can't really help how you look and what is ugly to me, might be as attractive as Miss Keys (my other future wife) 2 the next man. The other word is hate. I try 2 'not hate' more so than my attempt 2 not use the word. Well, I guess I need 2 reenergize my self because I'm letting the DMV or MVA make me fall short of my goal. I hate them bammas. The whole faceless organization. Hate 'em with a passion. Is it a requirement that you have a rude disposition 2 work there? You wouldn't believe the trials and hardships I've been going through with these fools for the past few months. Look, if anybody knows how I can take them down, please email me your ideas and suggestions! Because they are now on my list. They run ish like they're the Mob. And you gotta just take it like a little punk, or they'll give you a new number and never call it. I don't condone acts of violence, but after spending about the last six months of my life up in there (D.C.'s and MD's), I now understand it. I'm in there so much I should be on the pay roll. Then they have these stupid hours like nobody has a job they have 2 attend. It costs about 200 dollars 2 register your vehicle. I need 2 go 2 work so I can pay these idiots, but every time I get 2 the front of the line, I find out I need some other document. If you want the document so bad, won't you track it down? And if you're paying DC's DMV a visit, forget about finding a parking space... it doesn't exist (like a dime that cooks and cleans). And if we're talking about Maryland's, forget about trying 2 get somebody on the phone 2 answer the simplest question. Dag, I hate them bammas.

Gas Prices- This Is A Crisis
Mood:  on fire
These bammas done lost their minds...times 100! Never did I think I'd see the day where 2 bucks for a gallon of gas would be cheap. But with the prices being 3 and up. I'd gladly pay 2 big ones. See? If I vote, will that fix this mess? These crooks are just straight up stealing now and I guess they don't even care anymore about hiding that fact. How come, they can charge all this money for gas (which I reiterate is stealing) but if I pull a gas and dash move (hit me on the email if you need me to explain) I'm the criminal? Hypocrites!

G. W. Bush (minus the U and the H)
Mood:  irritated
I know y'all are tired of this man. Look, I never voted before. Now hear me out before you start bashing me and giving me the guilt trip. I do plan on voting in the next election. This will be the first of many times. Anyway, I always felt that 1 single vote isn't really going 2 decide anything in the grand scheme of things. Especially with the electoral college (holla @ me in an email if you need me 2 explain). So I was saying, why waste my time standing in line and all that 2 vote when it really doesn't matter 1 way or the other? But after much soul searching... I pretty much still feel that way. But I know our ancestors and other activists fought so I and people who look like myself could vote. Some paid with their lives. And for that reason and that reason only, I'll vote. I still don't think my vote will determine the winner and in every single election, I can always think of two other people who should be running, as opposed 2 the two they throw in front of me. But when it's a Bush, you gotta go with the lesser of two evils...which would be whoever the other candidate is.
