I can’t stand Kanye. I knew when his first CD came out, I was going to hate or love his style. How do you define his style? I say its confusing at best. He is so into himself. He got a bad review from Entertainment Weekly about his new “Glow in the dark” tour, and he cried and whined like he always does on his blog. At first I got the impression that Kayne was just trying to have fun with rap, now I think he’s destroying parts of it. Recently at a show near my hometown in Sacramento, CA he called the crowd Seattle four times. What a bastard! His records are redundant, narcissistic, and don’t contain a whole lot of substance (Like these posts right?). I saw him turning towards this “weird” persona when Late Registration came out, but I thought the CD was decent and over-looked to say the least. I mean this is a guy who should be very humbled, not bah-hum-bugged! On his website he has a fan club section! I know, it’s fucking crazy! Oh, did I fail to mention he charges $25 to become a member? That’s more than it costs to be a listener of his music! The mother fucker thinks he’s Jesus too! Look at the Rolling Stone picture, listen to “Jesus Walks” his ego is TRIPPING! I wish I could tell ‘Yay personally how big of a vagina I think he is. Quit the whining, rapping, and fashion revolution and get back to producing. I don’t care if you never rap another track again.

So, I lost my job. Got laid off to be exact. The reasoning? Not drunk on the job like I figured it would have been, (Kidding) they let me go due to “Job Performance”. I’ve been there for two years, if anything my performance excelled. I learned lots of new things in a short amount of time. I earned two raises while there, and also got myself on my way to being a certified Welder. They insisted job performance, yet as I grabbed my toolbox and tools I noticed there was a dude there who worked there days ago. He was my replacement. He also makes four dollars an hour less than I did. I can understand the company not wanting to pay my wages, just tell me that. But it should be interesting to hear how fast the company goes downhill because this guy can’t do my job. Not to be full of myself, but I know this to be the case. I am a dedicated hard working mofo, so it was really a shock to me when I lost my job. I have had this job since before my daughter was born. I remember two years ago losing a job and it was no big deal, now I have a child and it’s frightening. I’ll pull through though, that’s just the way it is.

It has been a busy week for me. My girlfriend and I are in the process of finding a home to buy, Renovation of the apartment above me (no sleeping in), and I recently won a bout with pneumonia. I’m still getting over it, but it’s not as bad as it was. I had fluid in my lungs, and a very nasty cough making it painful to breathe. I really thought there was a chance I could die. I was really sick for four days and did nothing but take Dayquil and Nyquil and cough drops to no avail. Then I realized my symptoms weren’t clearing up and decided to hit the E.R. for some treatment. I have a bad infection in my lungs. No cigs, no weed, no smoke for for the man who would smoke in the E.R. if they would let him. I feel like absolute death. I will find the energy tonight to talk about the pregnant transexual (BARF!!!1!!) that has shaken up the media lately. Do STAYtuned!

“Nirvana-In The Pines”

Lately I’ve been listening to a lot of “ahh to be 14 again” type of music. The Offspring, Creed, Sum41, Slipknot, blah blah blah..(What a loser right?) For some weird reason Blink 182 (Enema Of The State & Dude Ranch) is a band I am re-connecting with. I really liked them when Dude Ranch came out, and was still o.k. with them when Enema Of The State came along. Somewhere around Take Off Your Pants And Jacket (LOLZ!!1!) they lost me. I’m all about rap, in fact it’s all I’ve listened to (with the exception of being around other people’s music) for the last two years solid. I’m not dealing with any drama or problems right now, and that’s usually what makes me re-connect with oldies but goodies. Hmm…I must be getting older, I’m already thinking Blink 182 is “classic (not to be taken literal) music”….

I have been doing a little more traveling than I would like as of late. I went to Portland, OR a couple weeks ago (Nice little 7 hour drive), and this weekend (Oh shit that starts today?) I’m suppose to drive 4 hour up to Lake Tahoe, CA. Not that I wouldn’t mind being there, Tahoe is absolutely breathtaking. I’m suppose to be going up there to see my Aunt and Uncle-In-Law because they are moving to South Dakota. I’m suppose to help them pack all their shit up, go snowboarding, see my mom, and see my other Uncle. Oh, I’m suppose to take my daughter with me as well which is not fun when you are by yourself. If my girlfriend were able to go, I wouldn’t bitch a stitch. But now I have to decide today all day at work, if I am going to be “selfish” and stay home and not go see off people who only contacted me as of recent because they are moving. Family or no family, I think I just want to chill… STAYtuned

If I could just *BARF* for a moment, I would appreciate it. I use to wonder what my future would hold. Never having my head in the clouds, (AKA up my ass) I never long-shot for any perfect existence. Not that I don’t believe it exists, I just knew it wouldn’t leap at me. As I’m watching my daughter grow up, I can’t help but ask myself at what point will she encounter a struggle. Will I be there to see her through it? Will it be manageable? The way things are changing in this world as fast as they are, I am almost scared to be raising a child. It’s not because of my age, if anything I think I might be more in tune with what she will endure. But I look at how out of touch I am with my own parents and I am frightened. Things only become more fast paced, more involved, more intense really. The world will be going through some very serious changes within the near future, and I could one day become out of touch with my own child. Not to say I wouldn’t be in her life everyday, I just mean there will be things that “kids” do that I won’t be able to understand. I guess I’m trying to say I don’t think about my future anymore. I think about what being a “teen” is going to mean when my daughter is of age. Am I bringing up a child in the worst of ages? Probably. But I know I’m not alone. Does every parent think like me? Fuck no. That doesn’t mean they don’t care, they just might not care on such a paranoid level. Ahhh, I don’t know I think I’m rambling….

DJ Green Lantern

This guy has always been a top notch DJ/Producer. I’ve been a fan of GL’s shit for a few years now. It was like a dream come true when he became Eminem’s official DJ. He pumped out (and still does just with East Coast artist primarily) some of the illest mixtapes ever In My Opinion, while signed to Shady Records. Due to complications with some of Shady’s popular friends (50), Green Lantern and Shady parted ways. So what’s next for “The Evil Genius” ? Radio. Not that he’s new to radio, he had a spot on Eminem’s Shade45 Sirius Station, he’ll just be taking a different approach. With the release of GTAIV (Grand Theft Auto 4) right around the corner, (HAHAHAHA ROFL J/K) some of you are, like me, on the edge of your seat! There is plenty to be excited about, (can’t wait for a review) especially now that DJ Green Lantern has his own radio station in the game!!! Plenty of dope tracks to come for sure! The release of the game? *Shrugs* It’s been pushed back over and over again and now when I see advertisements for it in stores it just says “Soon..” I heard a rumor about September though….Any thoughts?

I seriously can’t remember the last time Easter came around and I was excited. It should be different for me considering I have a 1 year old daughter, but it’s not. I can remember being a kid and not being excited for easter, rather depressed at the gathering of my entire dysfunctional family. Somehow, somebody in my family would end up one too many deep (Beer’s that is) and end up bringing up some horrible fact on another family member to discuss. Cussing, fighting, and crying would surely ensue, yet none of it is coming from the kids. Ahh, I do remember being excited one easter. A church in my neighborhood always gave away crap candy in their plastic shell eggs they would oh so cleverly hide around the grounds. One of my friends finally convinced me to do this with him so I went up to his horrible choice of a religion’s church. Just wanting to get this over with and get the hell out of there I set out on a mission from HELL! I found like 3/4 of the eggs in the first five minutes. Kids were cussing and crying, it was shaping up to be a real regular easter for me. That is until I hit the jackpot. 20 Dollar bill. The only egg with any money and I swooped that shit. There was kids there that went to this church every service with their parents and they got beat out by a chubby athiest (at the time). So today my daughter will wear her easter dress, take pictures, and have no clue what this day is about. She doesn’t want to hunt eggs, she wants to drink juice and drool.
