Heavyweights pt.1

One of my alltime favorite duos - EPMD.

Godfathers, Carelian stew and Cochy-Vichy*

*Back from my short midsummer hiatus. Shoutout to my dad's cousin whom I hadn't seen in 16 years 2 days exactly. All types of marketing people have been reminding me about this new Nina Sky package lately. Better than these ladies first single attempt Sugar Daddy, this could be there or not. Daytona! Daytona! Who the hell is Daytona?!

Shake your tambourine

Even though not brand new, I happen to like this very Missy Elliottish/Busta Rhymish video. I have no idea what the heck the song is about but does that really matter.. Most of it is chorus anyway. Produced by Swizz Beatz who seems to be like 4 people nowadays:

Produced by Swizz Beatz for Swizz Beatz Productions
+
Produced by Marlin Hookman Bonds for Young World Music Group
+
Co-produced by Greg Mayhem Taylor and Carlisle Young for Young World Music Group / Relentless Management

Hanoi rocks, Tokyo raps

Tokyo's own Teriyaki Boyz featuring Kanye on the mic and production plus Nigo behind the wheels of steel. The song's titled "I Still Love H.E.R." Pleez pay attention to the subtitles. Damn I miss Tokyo. At least I managed to do some shopping at Tokyokan today which upgrades me from a regular blog nerd to a 3rd dan chef nerd. If anyone has a VHS/DVD copy of Tampopo, holla at me - haven't seen it since '85-'87.

Don't watch me...

Watch my feet. Chi-town up in this... Produced by Xcel of Shawnna/DTP "Gettin Some" fame. Backed by TVT, let's see where it goes. We as deejays could play a part in this. I know some of you are not ready, whereas some were born ready. Post your opions in comments.

Blades of Glory. Finally saw it. Will Ferrell is 2k7 Chevy Chase. "I guess I'd have to say three men who've been influential to my career have been number one: Bill Clinton, number two: lead guitarist of Quiet Riot.. whose name escapes me and third is... actually it's only two, those two guys."

Don't believe the hype

For me, Norton Antivirus products have always been like US Treasury notes - reliable with 100% protection and maturing in 12 months or so. Yesterday I spent a whole day realizing the truth isn't so. I trusted my properly updated Norton Antivirus so much that I attached an infected harddrive to my computer in order to save the important stuff from that hd. Results: 1 wreck and another infected machine. The Norton I had running on my computers did absolutely nothing to prevent the Recycler virus from copying itself to all attached drives and randomly rebooting or shutting down the system. I was really close to desperation until I installed a freeware antivirus software called Avast.

For those caking up my boy recommended this.

I'm too tired to list all the reasons why Norton sucks, for those interested check here. Though from 2k5 most of these anti-features still apply.

Summer 2007 - it's Casio time!

Coming of age

I will remember the year 2007 as the year when I started blogging and music cd's disappeared; and when hiphop, mixtapes and print flyers were almost as dead as minidiscs.

Anyhow, in the future I will be posting music and some other more or less interesting things here on a very irregular basis.
