It was live at Cane’s once again.

The night opened up with Deep Rooted and After School Special, 2 local San Diego acts. Deep Rooted was dope and apparently, they’re signed to Tajai’s label.

Shout outs to The Concrete Project for putting on another bangin’ show…for the second show in a row, the fans requested an encore song when they finished…that’s what’s up!

Then to cap off the night…Souls of mutha fuckin’ Mischief! DOPE. Here’s the second episode of SPTV, which includes some performance footage and an exclusive interview with Opio.

Shaqqawockee!

Is there a need for words?

The game was cool…the West smashed on the East 146-119, but neither side was as competitive as I wanted them to be. I was hoping that Lebron would take the limelight and win the MVP honors, but somehow my daddy Shaq, and my arch nemesis Kobe, ended up as co-MVP’s, both sharing their 3rd as an All Star. Shaq being my #1 of all time, I couldn’t be happier for him, especially at this stage of his career…but damn…it was a bittersweet moment for me…

The dunk contest was hot, but didn’t quite meet my expections. I thought Superman would take it again this year, but 5’9″ Krypto-Nate came back for a second title and TOOK IT! I was sure that Dwight had it in the books when he came out of a phone booth with his cape, and two-handed yacked an 11 foot basket with EASE….BUT Nate came back from the locker room sporting green from head to toe (hence Krypto-Nate) and shut the shit down with this…

So anyways, I wanna let everybody know that The Concrete Project will be performing twice this week!!  The first show is on Thursday, February 19, at the Whiskey A Go Go, on the Sunset strip.  Peep the flyers for details…

Then on Saturday, February 21, they are back at Canes with none other than the legendary Souls of Mischief, of the Hieroglyphics camp!  This shit ain’t no joke!

42-15491254

But that’s not all folks…come Friday, March 13, they are back at Canes, yet again…this time performing with the legendary DE LA mutha fuckin’ SOUL!  Getcha hip hop right kids…

concrete-de-la

We’re talkin’ about two 20 year veteran groups!  Get your tickets now and do not miss any of this shit…

Peace, “BK”

What’s to come?

So A-Rod, the highest paid major league’er ever, with the fattest contract in major league history, on a path to home run records and a hall of fame career, admits to have used performance enhancing drugs. We knew you weren’t THAT good mutha fucka.

Lebron had his triple double taken away, the Cavs lost to the Lakers, and LA is obviously the team to beat. But more than that, I’m kinda disappointed that we didn’t see much from either of the super stars the past two meetings.

Chris Brown is out on $50,000 bail facing a felony assault case, for possibly battering his girlfriend, Rihanna. Both pop stars missed the Grammy Awards this past Sunday, in which they were supposed to perform.

There were two car chases in LA tonight. The second one ended just a few minutes ago, with the suspect being driven away in an ambulance. It was a white Bentley, rumored to have been driven by DJ Khaled, who possibly may have shot himself?

These are some of the things that keep us entertained through these rough economic times, but let’s not lose focus on the harsh reality that we are currently facing as a people, as a nation, and as a planet. Job losses and unemployment rates seem to be growing exponentially and you don’t have to be a genius to see bad news written all over that. This affects everything and everybody.

President Obama held his first Presidential Press Conference earlier today. Here’s a bit of what he had to say…

It’s pretty obvious that we’re in a state of emergency and I know things are gonna get pretty damn ugly, if we don’t act fast. But remember, Obama isn’t our solution…he’s just the new head coach. He and his administration can draw and call the plays, but we as a nation, need to team the fuck up and help them execute.

Peace, “BK”

P.S. To everybody out there hurting, struggling to find work, getting laid off, and losing hope…keep your heads up and keep fighting…

ortiz-budden-nye

Now as you may, or may not know already, I’m a DIE HARD fan of hip hop.  NO, not hip POP…hip HOP…get it right.  It’s practically all I’ve been listening to since I was 7, although I do take the time to enjoy my oldies (thanks to my parents, real talk), and great music in general across ALL genres (yes, even country).  I’m for it all, but nothing gets me nearly as high as hip hop.

crooked-bentley-2

Now, having focused my love for music towards one genre for the majority of its existence, I truly feel like a pioneer of the industry.  Wanna tell me different?  Then fuck you :)   I’m not just a fan of the music.  I”m passionate about this shit.  Not to mention, I’ve been working on my production game for the last few years, but that’s another story.  You’ll see whatcha boy can do.

ortiz-budden-booth

So in a nutshell, ALMOST all the shit on TV and radio is CORNY.  All you fans buyin’ and bumpin’ the shit are corny, too.  Scratch that.  If you’re bangin’ that shit AND calling yourself a fan of hip hop, then you’re corny.  If you simply enjoy so called “hip hop” music and like to dance to it, then you’re cool.  But don’t be acting like you know something about it when you think T.I., Kanye, Wayne, and Game are the hottest rappers alive.

nickel-nine

Anyways, here’s the real reason behind this post.  If you don’t know Slaughterhouse, then don’t ever even attempt to debate with me about hip hop.  If you have heard them, but ain’t feelin’ their shit, then eat a dick!  Haha.  So who in the world is Slaughterhouse, you may be asking?  It’s a “super group” that formed several months back, by 4 of the ILLEST emcess ever, dead or alive.

joell-3

The amazing part about this collab is the fact that it just happened, without any planning or outreach to one another specifically about it.  Four dudes with some sick ass spit and a whole lot of respect for each other, simply got together and realized their supreme force as a collective.  Joell Ortiz, Crooked I, Jumpoff Joe Beezy, and Nickel Nine.  Don’t even know who they are?  Do your homework kids.

Peace, “BK”

“Aw man, this is hip hop.  Hands up, if you forever a fan of hip hop.  I wake up hip hop, go to sleep hip hop, dream bout hip hop, cuz I AM hip hop…”  – Joell Ortiz
