Every dayyyyyy the 14th!

2012-02-13T23:07:00.003-05:00

Happy Valentine's Day to ALLLLLLLLLLLL! As you know this is one of my favorite holidays and no matter how long it's been since I've blogged, I plan to ALWAYS put out a VDay mix. The titles of this two part mix are Old Love and New Love. As I'm sure you can guess one mix is filled with some Oldies but Goodies, and then the other is packed with more current tunes. There are 14 tracks on each mix (in honor of the 14th day) but I'm not providing a track list, for it will be a mystery until you have downloaded and are ready to get in the zone. Hopefully you enjoy and just remember to love love LOVE!

If you're familiar with me, COPE, then you're probably aware that I LOVE MUSIC....ALL TYPES OF MUSIC. So I decided to make a sweet mix of some of my favorite Rock songs. I love Rock music, more than this one mix could ever convey, but still this is a PRETTY SCHWEEEEET compilation. I hope you enjoy and remember to Open your EARS as well as your MINDS!

Frank Ocean

2011-03-31T23:30:00.002-04:00

For this to be Frank Ocean's 1st mixtape, he did MORE than an amazing job. I would advise anyone taking the time to read this post, to also take the time to download his mixtape nostalgia, ULTRA. <>

I would also suggest googling Frank Ocean so you can read all of the dope write-ups about this young man.

All Of The LIGHTS

2011-03-17T20:30:00.002-04:00

I personally am not a big fan of this new "All Of The Lights" Remix. (Weezy was POINTLESS)

So...

I decided to create my own remix line-up of artists that I think would have fit PERFECTLY on this track:

1.Lupe

2.Cudi (whole verse)

3.Eminem

4.Andre 3Stacks (Just to set that !sh OFF)

Let that marinate for a while...

Happy Valentine's Day

2011-02-14T14:29:00.005-05:00

Happy Valentine's Day to you ALLLLLLL! This year for my VDAY playlist I decided to do a mix for Love Found as well as Love Lost. Regardless of your current status on this day, remember that somebody loves you and you should be lovin' somebody BACK!

PEACE&LOVE

Fafi Sighting

2010-12-06T15:16:00.003-05:00

I don't have like a list of "My Favorite Artists" but if I did, Fafi would be on it. Her artwork stands out & on my daily trip to YOUHEARDTHATNEW.COM, there was a Fafi sighting. The video for "Do! Do! Do!" by Carte Blanch ft. Kid Sister was featured on the site and the cartoon used looked awfully familiar to me. So I did some GOOGLING and found that Fafi was definitely involved in the visuals. Check the video below & Google Fafi!

TEENAGE DREAM

2010-12-01T15:14:00.002-05:00

I love Pop music! I used to listen to N*SYNC, Hanson, The Spice Girls and a whooooole bunch of other singers/groups just like them. Its just Good/Fun music. This album isn't "NEW" new, but if u know me then u know it takes a WHILE for me to get around to listening to some things. Recently I finally listened to ALL of Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream". And boyyyyy do I LOVE IT! She has some great beats, good lyrics and she is sangin' her A$$ off on them tracks! I would advise anyone who likes Katy Perry, Pop music or just GOOD MUSIC to get ahold of this album and take a good listen. ENJOY

2010-12-01T15:09:00.002-05:00

After the first year I began this blog, I told myself I would blog everyday. As you can see.....THAT HAS NOT HAPPENED! LOL So I'm implementing Project 365 as of NOW. I'm going to try and get my blog post count for the year of 2010 up to 365. I now have 31 days to DO SO, & hopefully I will SUCCEED! And then I will make the same GOAL for 2011, with better hope! So wish me LUCK, & be prepared to get your READ ON! :)

2010-08-20T18:03:00.004-04:00

I'm kind of on a ROLL....go ahead & clap for ya girl! *Thank you...Thank YOU*. This is a new mix for all of my faithful out there. I love music (clearly) and because of that I actually dig to find new/hidden gems in different genre's. So I decided to create a mix compiled of male R&B/Soul singers that you may not be familiar with. There are also some artists up here who you probably do know but they've recently put out some new material, e.g. Dwele. I think this will be widely enjoyed & hopefully it will put you on to some of my favorite fellas (Kevin, BJ, Jesse). So I present to you: 1st Impression <--Click 2 Download

The New CUT UP

2010-08-18T01:45:00.005-04:00

Everyone has that...well, what my friend Teen Bean The Teen Dream calls "The Get Tha Drawz" playlist. & from the TITLE, I'm sure you can tell what type of playlist it is. When I think of a common everyday GTD playlist, it probably has Trey Songz on it....some Ciara....and probably a throwback here and there (Ginuwine or R.Kelly). So I decided to create a NEW GTD playlist entitled: The New CUT UP. Its comprised of songs that I think wouldn't initially come to the avg. persons mind, when comprising a playlist for this PURPOSE! Buuuuut these songs more than set the mood right. This selection of great tunes might not be for everyone, but I know SOMEBODY is gonna put this to good use.

Finding Miguel

2010-07-31T23:09:00.002-04:00

So by now if you're reading this, I hope you've heard "All I Want Is You" by new R&B artist Miguel ft. J.COLE (I LOVE J.COLE). If not then click the song title and get your DOWNLOAD on!

On another note....I love the song! Its sound is soooooo smooth. So after hearing this song, I was wondering what else he had out. I found that its kind of difficult to google JUST Miguel! LOL So I sent a SOS out into the twitterverse and my good friend @CmfG helped a sista OUT! So here is a mixtape by Miguel, titled Mischief the Mixtape. I like it (especially Ooh Ahh! & Super(natural)). So click the mixtape title and get to DOWNLOADINNNNGGGGG!

2010-06-30T00:08:00.002-04:00

....to make my entire NIGHT! So I had to run to the ATM right quick....I'm PJ'd DOWN & all that good ish. Anywayzzz, as I'm walking back to my car, I pass this black man with locks & he says "Hey sistah", and I reply back..."hey". It sounds meaningless but it was so NICE to hear "Sistah". Of course he was an older gentleman, bc more than likely if he was my age he would have been like "Hey Ma" or "Whats good shorty?" and he might have also tried to grab my arm. Not to dismiss my male peers who would have said "Sistah" or something as equally pleasing to the ears, but I'm just going off my more COMMON experiences. I don't know what happened between the time of the strangers generation and mine......but I forsake this mysterious reasoning, & hope that more of you beautiful black men would just take the time to kindly say "HEY" to a "Sistah"!

Peace&Love

2010-06-29T22:30:00.005-04:00

...because I have DEFINITELY seen this video posted on other blogs before now. So I was searching for good cover songs for the new mix that I'm making and I came across this video....and O-M-G this little boy is the greatest things since SLICED BREAD! I have nothing more to say....just watch the video and witness it for yourself! again....Oh EMMMM Geeeeeeee! i ♥ him

sidenote: there is no DOUBT in my mind that Greyson got ALLLLLL the biddies in his middle school after that MAGICAL performance. Peep the blonde chick in the top row......DROOLING! Oww Owwwww ;)

2010-06-03T15:23:00.002-04:00

Lately I've been listening to a lot of Donny Hathaway, thanks to DonV! And in doing so it got the wheels in my brain to turn at a rapid speeeeeed. Does my generation have artists with the Caliber of talent that the past gens. have had?! I mean....when was the last time you listened to "A Song For You" by Hathaway??? The song is moving, its VIVID, it lives. Donny sings that song like if he doesn't, the person he wrote it 4 will walk away from him THAT INSTANT! Or what about Stevie Wonder...Al Green...and of COURSE...MARVIN GAYE???? There are many more that can be mentioned, but with those few, I think you get my POINT! I know we have a few artists around today that stand out among the rest. Like Bilal, Anthony Hamilton, Musiq, Donnie, Maxwell.....but is their music going to stand the Test of Time? I just don't know....I want to believe that I'll tell my children about my generations soulful crooners, but I'll probably be more inclined to let them hear "Just to Keep You Satisfied" or "I'll Love You More Than You'll Ever Know". I just don't know....maybe I need to give them more time to be great. Whenever one of these long awaited "Greats" for MY generation comes around....I'll definitely keep you informed!

Hueless BLUES

2010-02-15T00:11:00.004-05:00

If you know me, then you're probably aware of the fact that I LOVE music. But my taste is very ECLECTIC, so I love many different types of music. One of the many Genre's I love is Rock music (I'm a beast on Guitar Hero). This mix I've created is dedicated to a special group of rockers that have a HINT of the Blues, and a SPLASH of Soul in their music. I love white men with a little Soul/Blues, because white men get the BLUES too :( ! The Epitome of this type of music I LIKE would be the Black Keys (who are on the mix). If you've never heard of them then CLICK & get familiar! AnyHooo, grab some Jack Daniels and a BiSCUIT, sit back and enjoy the viiiiiiiiibe.

L'amore è...

2010-02-14T10:39:00.008-05:00

L'amore è is Italian for Love is. I bought a t-shirt once that had two ppl on it and it said Love is...something something something. Apparently Love is...is a comic created by Kim Grove. Some examples are: Love is...you're secret weapon or Love is...a necessity, not a luxury. After rediscovering Love is...I thought that would be a good theme for my Valentine's Day Mix. V-day is by far one of my most FAVORITEST holidays. An entire day focused on LOVE? Yeah I'm a sucker for that! And I wanted to use this mix to explain that there are many types of love and so many songs that describe them, that there has to be at least ONE that speaks directly to you. So I hope all of you reading this post are celebrating LOVE today and are thankful for all of the LOVE that comes your way EVERYDAY! Download the MIX and ENJOY!

Fairytales

2010-01-10T00:48:00.007-05:00

When most little girls are growing up they're told several stories of princesses that meet their prince or damsel's in distress who are rescued by their true love. Little do these poor little girls know the road to meeting their knights in shining armor can be long/hard/painful/& sometimes never ending. My Shnoogy recently informed me that even the fairy tales we've grown up knowing aren't the WHOLE truth. Did you know in the real version of Sleeping Beauty, that her "Prince" doesn't kiss her to wake her up? But instead he RAPES her in her sleep, she bares children and one of the kids sucks out the thorn in her thumb that put her to sleep? TRAUMATIZING RIGHT?! Were you also aware that in the real version of Snow White, her "Prince" doesn't awaken her by a kiss....but instead, the piece of the poison apple is dislodged from her throat because of the bumpy movement of her coffin.....BECAUSE HE WAS KIDNAPPING HER! Now I'm aware that these aren't stories you can tell a CHILD....and that the point of the Disney versions is to instill the concept of love in a little girl. But in this day and age.....what's the POINT?! Nowadays its RARE to find a man you could even think to compare to a Knight in Shining Armor or a Prince. I'm not saying they don't exist....I'm just saying they're rare....LIKE A UNICORN! Some men act like taking a woman out on a date is a hard thing to do, & today is borderline UNCOMMON. Respect in general is lacking from men today, & many lack common decency. You could have spared me allllllll the love stories in the world if I had known that the world wasn't really like that. Again I'm not saying I'm a skeptic on the concept of LOVE or anything like that, I'm actually the complete opposite. But you can spare me the sappy love stories and what not. I'll just wait until its time to write my own Fairytale!

(when I thought about this subject for a new blog post, I figured I'd include a mix with it. The mix is comprised of Singers, Girl fronted bands, or groups Featuring female artists)

Where did it go WRONG?

2010-01-06T23:53:00.005-05:00

I have always had a lot of guy friends growing up.....I'm not sure why (bc I'm the illest nigga in Nebraska?), but I have. Of course I had my home girls.....my main circle in like HIGH SCHOOL or whatever. But I had way more close guy friends than close girl friends. But as we've gotten older and hopefully wiser, I'm stepping back and looking at some of these friends as just MEN. I have so much more access to my dudes than I had before, with sites like twitter and what not. & sometimes its almost PAINFUL to read some of the things they say or think about. Many refer to women as BITCHES, or tweet about how "Bitches ain't shit" and blah blah blah. I know I'm not a bitch and that they're more than likely NOT talking about me, but that is a GENERAL statement. Did I not set a good enough example growing up with these guys? I was the funny good girl in High School and pretty much still am, so why don't they think about me or girls like me when they tweet shit like "All bitches are fuckin!" or something just as equally objectifying/degrading? I would never tweet no shit like "Niggas ain't SHIT." Why?...because I know some niggas who don't fit in the "Ain't SHIT" category, & I always think about them whenever I may FEEL like generalizing all men. But I can't expect everyone to do what I do. I guess some people aren't the way they used to be....or maybe I never knew this side of them. So many of my friends do things in regards to women that it makes me almost ashamed to say I'm their friend. Maybe they'll say I'm the one that's change...who knows.....I could be over analyzing things. Or maybe this is just the way some of them are gonna be, but hopefully not forever [I pray not forever]

Heads UP

2010-01-03T23:55:00.002-05:00

I believe 2010 holds a lot of great things to come! One of these things being Bilal's debut album on Plug Research. If you're a fan of Bilal [as I truly am] then you are probably aware of his 1st solo album 1st Born Second and the unfortunately shelved Love For Sale. There aren't any leaked singles, potential album titles or anything like that for this upcoming album. This is just a HEADS UP to look out for new music from Bilal in 2010!

If you actually know me [COPE] in real life, then you probably know that I'm kind of a computer geek!? (& if you don't know, now ya KNOW n**ga) So this post is me "the Geek" informing you of an awesome website I was put onto. My friend Panda told me about Stumbleupon.com about a month or so ago. Basically what you do is create a profile, then you can personalize it with what your different interests are. Then you STUMBLE, which simply means you click the STUMBLE! button and it takes you to different random websites that match your selected interests. And once you land on a webiste that you really like, you can then favorite it for future reference! I recommend that if you're reading this post, then your next action should be to visit Stumbleupon.com. The worst thing that can happen is you don't think its that awesome....& in the event that that does happen, your solution is easy......X out of that window :). And if you DO think that the website is the TITS, then "Tell em' that I sent'cha" (said in my best Juelz voice).

If you're reading this and you live along the east coast (VA, DC, MD, NY), then you probably got a little bit of snow this past weekend. So I decided that the first of my #Music Monday mixes would be dedicated to the fallen snow, hence the title FALLEN. On facebook and twitter, I saw the same recurring theme when ppl discussed the snow: How it was perfect boo lovin' weather! Could you imagine getting snowed in for an entire weekend with your main squeeze? I would imagine that if you and your partner fucked with each other like that.....then it would be a BLAST! If NOT....then someone might DIE! This playlist is for the LOVERS in LOVE. The one's who stayed in bed all day because they COULD....& because getting up meant no more arms wrapped around you or no one's head pleasantly buried in the nape of your neck. WHOA....just got all Danielle Steele on you didn't I?!?!?! Needless to say, I hope you enjoy this mix...& the next time your snowed in, hopefully it's with that person. If so....just push play....until the snow melts away! Cop(e)acetic Presents: FALLEN <---Click Link To Download

....Erykah Badu is coming out with a new album in February 2010, entitled A New Amerykah Pt.2 Return of the Ankh. I found out about this during my daily visit to Blind I for the Kids. And the ppl at Blind I were kind enough to post a video of Badu talking about her upcoming release. The way the ppl are sitting indian style just looking up at her in AWE and AMAZEMENT is mind blowing. If while creating this new album, she felt the same way she did when writing Baduizm.....then I know this is going to be a musical FORCE like non other.

When you hear "Carson Daly" you probably immediately think of TRL. I know I DO! But life after Total Request Live has probably been pretty KICK ASS, from what I can tell through my TV screen. Carson has had his own show, Last Call with Carson Daly, since 2002. And from the looks of things I believe Carson has to have one of the illest jobs in the entertainment industry. Daly gets to interview new up and coming artists, actors, comedians, as well as sports entertainers. Basically anything that is NEW and POPPIN'.....Carson will know about it and most likely address it on his show. Last Call airs around 1:36 am (eastern) and me being the night owl that I am, I've caught several episodes. On one of the more recent episodes, live performances by the XX were shown and Daly mentioned another band called White Denim. The crazy thing about THAT little tidbit is that only days before, I had discovered the XX and White Denim by reading a blog post titled gorilla vs. bear's albums of 2009 (on Gorilla vs. Bear). Like I said....NEW & PoPPiN'! I would advise anyone who wants to stay up to date with new music from alllllll types of genre's, to tune into this late night GEM! To sum all this up.....basically Daly has gone from the Corny TRL host to the kinda indie Cool'ish ,"in the KNOW" Late Night host. Not sure how he did it....but you gotta respect his HU$TLE! (He's still kinda corny though!)

Lately with the release of Wale's Attention Deficit album and more recently the Clipse's album Til The Casket Drops (FIRE!), I have noticed that Target hasn't been bumpin' my music, that's how I'll put it. I used to be able to look at a Target weekly ad and if I knew a CD I wanted was coming out on Tuesday, I was going to find it in that ad. NOT THESE DAYS! The week Wale's CD came out, not only was it not in the Weekly Ad, but I had to scour the Target website to see if they even knew what I was talking about. It took me five thousand, 800 & 6ixtyTwo YEARS to find Attention Deficit on that damn website. Last week Til The Casket Drops was released and it TOO was not in Targets Weekly AD....when I went to the store they claimed they were "OUT" but I bet those bastards weren't even carrying the shit. I'm very disappointed in Target....I may just be looking to deeply into the situation or I could be right on the money with this. I have noticed that the "Ethnic" hair section has gotten a lot larger in matching demographics though.....I guess its an even trade off?! :( Assholes

2009-10-09T01:39:00.002-04:00

Another Gucci Mane video POST!

Everybody loves this song, no bullshit! I haven't been white boy wasted in a WHILE but this song still gets me DUMB HYPE! This is the GUCCI MANE "Wasted" video below and I love it for soooooooooo many reasons. This video reminds me of my senior year in High School as well as my 1st and 2nd year of college. Whether it was partying with my MANY white friends in high school or going to some random white frat party at Mason, they really did look like this. I've been to a party where they were playing beer pong in the pool on a floating table.....I JUST SAID FLOATING TABLE! So this video makes me all around happy and reminds me of the gooood ol' days! I would have paid a good ten dollars if this video were a real party! I WOULD'VE BEEN IN THERE LIKE SWIMWEARRRRRRR!

Is that YOU Gucci?

2009-10-09T01:15:00.002-04:00

So I LOVE the 5 Star Chick remix video for this 1 main reason: Gucci Mane La Flare has some PRETTY WHITE TEETH. Most of the time when you see Gucci he has these HORRIBLE gold fronts in, BUT in this video they are OUT and his teeth are B-E-A-Utiful! Boooiiiiii, you would never know such nice teeth were hiding behind such not nice fronts! Ewwwiiiiieeeee.

These are also the first things I thought when I saw each rapper:

1. Gucci: "Gucci got some PRETTYYYYYY TEETH"
2. Yo Gotti: "Sir...that FAAAAADEEEE, that FADE"
3. Trina: "I love Trina but she has to have the WORST bags in hip hop, ain't look like she's slept in DAYS"
4. Nicki Minaj: "Nicki has GREAT BOOOOOOOBS"

Brand New Eyes

2009-09-24T15:48:00.002-04:00

So Paramore (bomb ass band.....get familiar) is coming out with their 3rd studio album. And I have a feeling this bad boy is going to be the TITS! Their lead single "Ignorance" slaps you right in the face with a nice I DON'T GIVE A F$#K. Talk about a break up song, yeah its over when this joint is played. Brand New Eyes will be released September 29th, and I suggest if you're reading this that you go COP it, mmhhmmmm. [Look for an album review in the near future my little gangbangers]

This is the video for Ignorance

William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet

2009-09-24T03:15:00.002-04:00

Everyone knows William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet, sometimes referred to as the Tale of Two Star Crossed Lovers. Well lately they have been playing Baz Luhrmann's adaptation of the classic tale on HBO, and it got me to thinkin.......this thing is the TRUUUUTH! Baz Luhrmann's vision of a modern Romeo + Juliet was soooo skillfully crafted in that film. The way he portrayed "Swords" mentioned in the original tale, as GUNS in his version was brilliant. The updated/current fashion sense, cars, architecture, all of it modernized that movie in such a distinct way. The song selection (now you know Baz loves his MUSIC....MOULIN ROUGE anyone???) he used to get across the message of certain scenes, was memorable. The moment Romeo (played by Leonardo DiCaprio) and Juliet (played by my fave...Claire Danes) see each other for the first time.....and Des'ree is on stage at the party performing Kissing You, Ughhhh....CLASSIC. You could just see the look of love in their eyes. Now I know its just a movie but it almost makes you believe in love at first sight. For my generation I just can't see Shakespeare being too captivating, who wants to decipher what he is trying to say....really?! This modern portrayal of such a classic was a great way to breakdown the work of Art Shakespeare created. I don't know if love like this exists.....a love so great that without it you'd rather die?!?! Is that even a love one would want?! I don't know......but if I ever find out....I'll write about it, I promise ;)

U Only Have Yourself 2 Blame

2009-09-24T02:51:00.003-04:00

I am so tired of alllllllllllllllllllllllllll the bitching. Gentlemen, the next one of you I hear going on & on about how women ain't shit (I'm using the word "women," some of u fine young men aren't that kind in choosing your words) and how chicks are grimey and blah blah blah, I'M GONNA FUCKING SNAP! Because you really only have yourself to blame! You choose the "Bad Bitch" in the club, chances are that broad don't cook NOR clean. You stay smashing random chicks, because you're a GUY and you can do that....but guys get reps too....& a good girl don't want a hoe ass man that all her girls have "Heard" about. But a jump off might find you VERY appealing. So basically your actions create your result.....act like a hoe ass dude....and u attract a hoe ass broad. Don't group all women into a single category of EVIL....if you're only attracting CRAZY, Dramatic, MOOCHIN' ass chicks, then maybe you need to reevaluate your motherfuckin self! The bad thing is sometimes a good woman will cross your path and you just don't know what to do.....so you know what happens?! YOU SCREW THE POOCH! Its a new day fellas....ur only getting one chance these days because NO woman wants to waste her time hoping that you will get your act together. U either come CORRECT off jump or do not come at all. And don't be mad if ol' girl is not sleeping with you off JUMP, if she says she doesn't want it to be like that then maybe she really sees something in you and wants it to be more than a physical thing....and you know what happens??? YOU FUCK THAT UP TOO! If you start spittin game to a chick and she's not breaking you off any, don't be mad because you know your man hit early....why are you even pressed about her if YOUR MAN HIT! Then you whine about females being GRIMEY! NIGGA YOU JUST WENT AFTER A CHICK YOU KNOW YOUR MAN SMASHED! Maybe YOU'RE grimey! Bottom line is stop bitchin'......if you really want a significant and sophisticated change in the "Relationship/Romantic" side of your life then YOU need to make it happen. Some of you really are worthy of a good woman, but you're selling yourselves short. AGAIN, not all of the time.....but sometimes you really only have yourself to blame!

BOW

2009-09-24T02:16:00.002-04:00

Why do the worst rappers make the catchiest song? Seriously.....this phenomenon plagues me. Case in point....this V.I.C song "BOW". Catchy as all hell.....& it pisses me off!

Couples Counseling: Me & Trey Songz

2009-09-16T12:02:00.002-04:00

So Trey and I have been together since his first album.....I mean I spent money on him and everything but lately he's been letting me down. I mean I don't think he's doing the music for me any more....but, for all these *LUSTY* Broads out in these streets. I DON'T FEEL SPECIAL TREYYYYY! But on a serious note....here is how I feel about Trey Songz. My opinion is that the dude has a lot of talent....like A LOT! But when he came out he was so hungry, you could sense that urge to make it, that "I'm bigger than Petersburg" mentality. And with that fire this young man made a solid debut.....I Gotta Make It was a GOOOOD album. Nothing was too outlandish, all of the subject matter was that you would expect from a 20yr old young man. Making it in the world, dancing with shortie in the club, thinking about cheating, letting the girl get away, a fat ASS....blah blah blah! And I guess his subject matters have remained the same for the most part, but boy have the degrees of said subject matters gone to the EXTREMEEEEE. I mean now the songs are like scratching up my back, the neighbors know my name, you'll think I invented sex and the list goes on. Its just kind of disappointing because I saw him being like an Al Green of my generation, fun RnB music with a sexier side. But its gone boreder line raunchy.....but the ppl LOVE IT! Does this say something about our generation as a whole? I mean I know sex sells but my oh MY, does it have to be that much sex?! I know this means very little because all the females are gonna still scream "TREYYY TREYYYY" and all the dudes are gonna put the Ready album on when they wanna get it POP-INNNNN. I just saw something more in the GUY, and counseling isn't gonna do much....I think Trey and I will just have to go our separate ways :( smh.

Outasight

2009-09-11T02:52:00.003-04:00

Richard Andrew. A normal enough name, I'd say. Outasight. Not your average moniker, but still they are One and the SAME. Outasight is an artist born and raised in New York. I want to describe him as a rapper[SLASH]singer, but that wouldn't do HIM justice. I think I'll call him a Soulful Spitta....yeah that's appropriate! Whether he is spitting a well written 16 or singing some type of ballad-Esque song, Outasight does it with soooooooooooo much SOUL. In interviews he has cited Stevie Wonder as one of his influences (how he came up with the name? that might have something to do with it, who KNOWS) and it definitely shows. His music is evidence in itself that he has been influenced by the sounds of Hip Hop and Soul. The first song I heard from Outasight was "Good Evening," a very catchy...fast paced tune, that immediately had me singing along...."Good Mornin' Good Evenin' I hope ya like DREAMIN." Once you get my shoulders moving and my head nodding.....you've won me over, and he did JUST THAT [plus he's easy on the EYES...Owww]! Since discovering the charismatic tunes of Outasight, I have copped his Radio New York LP and his From There To Here Mixtape. I would suggest that you cop them as well! He recently released a new single titled "Brand New Day" [its a selection in my iTouch music player, peep the sidebar]. He has also been recently featured on a Mick Boogie remix project called Re-Living Thing [check that out at ThePressPlayShow.com]

For more on the awesomeness that is Outasight...

Nola Darling

2009-09-11T02:14:00.002-04:00

I'm a blogger for myself, first and foremost.....but I keep the readers in mind too! Haahaa. AnyHOO....I've been adressed by ppl requesting more posts on relationships or to start addressing sex related topics. These aren't things that are in my daily train of thought, so I just don't blog about them OFTEN. BUT....a friend of mine also believed I should include more of these topics on Cop(e)acetic and in turn volunteered to address these issues. Because she is a free spirit and her opinions on these issues might be scrutinized bc she would be judged by societies DOUBLE STANDARDS that the BOTH of us think are unfair and WiZAck, she has decided to conceal her IDentity. You can just call her Nola....Nola Darling, after the beloved character in Spike Lee's She's Gotta Have It [check the movie out if you haven't already]. So this is the beginning of the Nola Darling movement on Cop(e)acetic. If you have any questions or topics you would like Nola to discuss just send her a Dear Nola email [so we will know who u are addressing] to Copeacetic@gmail.com. Lets get this ball ROLLING! XoxoXo

Francis

2009-09-10T13:42:00.001-04:00

I don't remember how I came across the musical greatness that is Francis and the Lights, but what I do know is that I'm very glad I DID! Francis and the Lights is a New York based band fronted by Francis Farewell Starlite [I've heard that the Lights are his band but also a reference to the lights behind them when the group performs]. If you like good quality music then you can appreciate this group. The instrumentation in their music is fresh and beautiful, allowing the sound of every song to help envision the very thoughts of Francis Starlite. The FUNK released by the guitar in their song Striking is magical.....I can't help but groove whenever I hear it. I've heard that their live performances are an experience in themselves. Soon, I hope I will be able to verify whether this is true or not [I'm sure its MORE than true]. If you want to learn more about Francis and the Lights go to http://francisandthelights.com/ or go to Blind I for a great interview. To get familiar with their FANTASTIC music you can go to http://francisandthelights.muxtape.com/

This is a video of Francis and the Lights performing some of A Modern Promise

The Climb

2009-09-10T13:03:00.002-04:00

Music inspires.....because essentially, Music IS inspired. An artist does, sees or goes through something and then they put their experiences in the music. All ppl go through so many similar situations in life that eventually you are going to come across a song that SPEAKS directly to you. The song I will use as a prime example is The Climb by Miley Cyrus. Now I'm not saying this song speaks to me [yes I am! smh], but its soooooooooo inspirational. This song is just so good. I would advise that if anyone is going through a rough time that they listen to this song and get out of their slump. A good pat on the back can come from the strangest places, in this case......it comes from Hannah Montana! :)

Let it OUT

2009-05-11T04:27:00.009-04:00

Everybody gets a little stressed out sometimes, but you can't let the stress build up b/c it will just transform into something much worse! So I suggest everyone find some outlet to get the stress out...for me its either music, painting, or writing (like this blog thaaang). Here is a recent piece I painted, its a dedication to Radio Raheem. I'm not putting it up here for you to comment on the artwork, but to give you ideas for stress relief! Woooooooooo Saaaaaaaaaaah...

Really BITCH?!

2009-05-11T03:42:00.002-04:00

So recently pictures of Cassie's pierced breast's appeared on the world wide web (not too long ago her half shaved head photos popped up via twitter, basically this broad is on a ROLL). I wasn't impressed b/c they were smaller than I had ever noticed, all praises due to a GOOD BRA! So all her titty pics did for me was remind me to never get a breast reduction and be glad that the Good Lawd decided to throw some D's on THIS bitch! LOL But then only a few days later there are pictures of Rihanna's ass allllllll over the same world wide web! REALLY BITCH?!?!?! IS THAT HOW YOU GON' ACKT??? So ppl are kinda over your "ALLEGED" domestic violence situation with Chris Breezy and you just haaaaaaaaad to make sure no one was taking your shine, huh bitch? See, I never really had a problem with Rihanna. No she can't sing and when she came out she wasn't NEARLY as cute as she is but she was cool, come mister dj sum pon de replay or WHATEVER! But this OBVIOUS publicity stunt (& pure bitch ass move) just seems mad SELFISH....& I don't bangs with SELFISH. But all that is about to be deaded if this Hoopz sex tape really exists....Sex Tape>Titty/Ass stills LOL.....motion picture trumps ALL!

You're a JERK!

2009-05-11T02:33:00.006-04:00

Basically a new dance/music craze seems to happen everyday and just out of the blue. The one that has tickled my fancy most recently is JERKIN'. Jerkin' is a movement that started in Southern California and is complete with iLL dance maneuvers and some decent (at the least HILARIOUS) songs!

If I could create a musical duo who's sole purpose was to change the game and basically TAKE OVER THE WORLD, these two dudes would not have been anywhere in my realm of THOUGHT! Who would have ever thought that the DJ who created the infamous Grey Album and the nigga that left Goodie Mob would be a musical phenomenon. I don't think there is anything else out like Gnarls Barkley, and their depth goes deeper than you could imagine...

There's a THIN line!

2009-01-29T00:40:00.004-05:00

So recently a friend of mine got into a little quarrel with his girl....because she found some things in his cell phone that I GUESS made her UNhappy. So time goes by and then randomly ol' girl shows up at his spot and when he opens the door she cracks a picture frame with a photo of them *UPSIDE* his head! Yesssss.....I stated UPSIIIIIIDE his HEAD. Now I am anti-Domestic Violence.....I REALLY AM, but sometimes I feel like if a woman has enough balls to hit a man then she has enough balls to potentially get knocked the fuck OUT. Now I believe there are guidelines to different situations. If a chic hits a dude, then he probably shouldn't hit her back because a hit from him would be waaaaaaaay more painful (maybe), a shove or a mush should suffice in that situation. Now if a bitch comes strapped with weapons....like a PICTURE FRAME (which could be composed of wood, metal, glass etc.), then you might have grounds to lay hands on her. I know that some of you reading this may not agree....but if a chick is about to potentially draw blood, then I think ol' boy can draw a measily bruise. So to sum everything up....I don't support domestic violence, men shouldn't hit women and women shouldn't men. No one should ever result to physical BLOWS. So ladies if you keep hittin' your man like Yvette did Jodie in Baby Boy, then he may very well hit you back like JODIE did...in BABY BOY. And fellas if you keep hittin' your woman like ol' boy hit J.Lo in Enough, then she may very well KILL you like J.LO did...in ENOUGH. Why can't we all just get ALONG

2009-01-28T15:51:00.011-05:00

So I have been playing around with photoshop a lot lately and I've been making flyers for some Happy Hours and Parties for friends. And I must say I have been getting prrrreeeetttyyyy good. I feel like if you just play around with it for a while then different this will just happen and if you like them then keep them and remember how to do it for future reference. The good thing about photoshop is when you do something that you don't like you can just delet it....you won't have to start all over or anything like that, ITS GREAT! Another thing I do to try and beef up my skills with Da Shop is watch tutorials. Planetphotoshop.com has some BOMB ass tutorials. The one's I've watched so far have been narrated by Corey Barker (he may do all of them?) and he explains things very well. If you don't like the one's on that site then you can google photoshop tutorials and I'm sure you'll come across something that works for YOU! Here are two of the flyers I've done:

Unstoppable

2009-01-28T15:08:00.005-05:00

You know what I like....

People who are motivated about shit....especially when its something good! How can you bad mouth someone hype about some ILL shit. My dude Keevon coaches basketball for little kids and apparently loves it and is dedicated to it. Can you really hate on that? It's easy to not do shit with yourself, as I've stated before, but not everybody can be motivated enough to do something with themselves. I'm sure everybody has something that can motivate them beyond what they could ever imagine....you just gotta figure out what that something is and then be like "Fuck IT!...I'm in this to win IT!" Be Unstoppable.....(the person in the picture below was Unstoppable like shit)

For all you facebook heads is basically a bunch of status changes. Its a good way to keep up with what some of your friends and family are doing. Even celebrities have twitter! I have one and my nigga B.Eazy has one, check em' out and see what you think.

2009-01-22T16:12:00.004-05:00

I'm not currently in a good mood....so these next few posts are gonna be about shit that really pisses me off!

I hate it when people say dumb shit like "You're the whitest black person" or "You're soooo white." I ESPECIALLY hate those comments when they come from NON-Black People! How the fuck is a white person gonna tell me how I'm supposed to act as a BLACK person? There is no possible way they could know unless they knew every black person in the WORLD, therefore knew exactly how all black people acted and could then tell me I was going against the norm. All you outsiders are bamFUCKINGboozled by the media into believing there is a certain way that black people should act. I'm supposed to use broken english, shitty manners, basically anything I do right is in essence wrong because it is not the character of the black race. What kind of ILL shit is that? The way I portray myself is the way I'm supposed to be....and since being black is a part of who I am....then how I act is how a Black person named COPE is supposed to act. What's funny is if I reacted the way they would "EXPECT" me to as a stereotypical black person, trust me they would NOT be happy with the outcome. So....moral of this is I act the way I am.....I....ME...not everybody else....but this is who BLACK me is and best believe its RIGHT, so the next person to come out they mouth sideways with some silly ass comment like the one's discussed is getting a GOOD OLE FASHIONED Cope response. You've been warned.....

You're Wearing the Wrong UNIFORM

2009-01-22T14:49:00.002-05:00

I've touched on this subject before but I never really went into detail, so here it goes!

You can't really judge a person by their appearance these days because people are not wearing their appropriate uniforms. There used to be a time when bad girls dressed like bad girls. Now its gotten so bad that good girls dress like whore's.....why? I don't know.....that's a uniform I wouldn't want voluntarily. I'm tired of seeing broads dressed like Jackie O when they act like Marilyn Monroe....those are two COMPLETELY different types of female. A nice pair of pearls or a pretty little necklace does not MASK the fact that you're kind of a SLORE! But this does not apply to females only.....there are PLENTY of fellas running around rockin their "GEEK" swag, tryin to be Jay-Z or pulling off the "Rock!" look Weezy style. But no matter how many stee-lo's they jack most of these dudes are still grimey ass niggas that really ain't bout shit. I really need for people to stop putting on different uniforms if they can't fulfill the Job Requirements. You don't see me waking up...going to my closet...pulling out a cop uniform and being like "U know what....I think I wanna enforce the LAW today!" If you put on your "Sophisticated Lady" uniform then your actions should MATCH. People can change their style up, but I feel that when you do personalities should change as well....because you normally look the way you feel, right?!

Crown Royal On Ice

2009-01-05T17:30:00.004-05:00

NOT the drink!

This is what I like to refer to some people as, people who have a certain QUALITY to the tone of their voice. Have you ever heard someones voice that sounded like sex? A sensual tone that reminds you what it feels like when silk hits your skin! A voice that when you hear them say anything it feels like someone just gently ran their fingers across the back of your neck? STOOOOOOOOP! My sister says Marsha Ambrosius voice sounds like sex (the singer from Floetry). And I would have to agree with her on that....b/c almost every song on the Floetic album gave off THAT vibe. I actually have one particular friend who's voice sounds like Crown Royal On ICE to the highest extreme. This man could be talkin about GREEN EGGS AND HAM I tell you.....and I wouldn't even notice it because as SOON as his lips part my mind starts creating the type of visuals that show up with censor bars already IN THEM! The kind of voice that makes you want to be the WORDS that come out his mouth, so you can actually feel what the sounds feels like rolling off his tongue. He has the kind of voice that when you haven't heard it in a while and then you suddenly do everything around you stops. Or the kind of voice that when you miss a call from him you ALWAYS want him to leave a message, so you can listen to it then save it so you can hear that Crown over and over. The kind of voice that when you get a text message from him you imagine him actually saying the words, making the text THAT much better! I've made a lot of comparisons so you can read this and try to understand just what I'm saying....but I'm just gonna end with ONE LAST example: A Crown Royal On Ice voice, HIS voice, when you hear it its like every word coming out of his mouth represents a kiss he lays on every inch of your body, from the top to the bottom. I'm done....no really I can't keep this up! I know I'm not the only one who knows a Crown Royal On Ice or two....LADIES.....act like you KNOW!

Sidenote: I got the term Crown Royal On Ice from a Jill Scott song entitled "Crown Royal"
Here are the lyrics just in case you've never heard the song:

"Your hands on my hips pull me right back to you/I Catch that thrust give it right back to you/ you're in so deep I'm breathing for you/you Grab my braids arch my back high for you/your Diesel engine, I'm squirting mad oil ah/Down on the floor til my speaker starts to boil/I flip s**t/Quick slip/Hip dip/And I'm twisted/In your hands and your lips and your tongue tricks/and you're so thick and you're so thick and you're so Crown Royal on ice"

A Go LIVER (pronounced LIE-Verrrr)

2009-01-05T16:54:00.003-05:00

So while I was writing "U'd still smash tho," I was listening to Get it Girl by Chip Tha Ripper and he used the term "Go Liver." I had never heard the term before but I was pretty sure I had a good idea of what it meant, but just in case...I did an urban dictionary search. It's basically someone who is ready and willing to engage in sexual activities whenever, wherever, however. Immediately I was like "That's not cute!" but then I thought about it a little longer....lol! That may not necessarily be a BAD thing. If you think about it there is probably at least one person that could turn you into a Go Liver whenever they're around. I feel like if you're not a Go Liver with EVERYONE then that's fine, and maybe there is just one person that brings that side of you out, so I say HEY.....go for gold...in fact if you're reading this...STOP RIGHT NOW....hit up your Go Liver immediately and tell them you're ON YOUR WAY!!!!!! Hahahaha TERRIBLE :P

U'd Still Smash Tho!

2009-01-05T14:43:00.004-05:00

Dudes run their mouths just as much as some females do, which is a mind blower to me. I hear guys talkin about the different chicks they're talking to or beatin down, and you should hear some of the things they SAY! Whore is reemerging as a very popular term for the loose jawns out here in the streets....I'm hearing it being used more frequently these days. But back to what I was saying....I hear dudes calling these chicks whores and all this other stuff and they talk about all the ILL shit these chicks do and SAY, but I'm like..."U'd still SMASH THO!" I don't wanna associate myself with some skeezy ass nigga, sometimes ignorance truly is bliss and if I don't know ol' boy is scummy then it could be a good thing (or NOT). But if I know he's one step away from being a PROSTITUTE why would I still wanna mess with him? Ewwww.....nooooo sirrrrrrrr. But nigga's will know these chicks are so called "WHORES" and still bang with the broad. I mean if you still gonna beat then you could at least stop talking about the chick because you're only BUT SO MUCH better than she is.....what's the old saying...."You are what you EAT!" LMAO ewwwwwww!

Can't Keep Me Anymore

2009-01-04T23:10:00.003-05:00

Have you ever witnessed a bad relationship and wondered why the people don't just get out?!?! You're probably thinking to yourself..."no one is happy any more, the good times seem so far away and its better to just let go." But can you imagine how hard it must be to let go? You know the relationship isn't the way it once was, but you just keep believing that it will get back to the what it used to be or even better. As soon as you've made up in your mind that you're finally gonna let them go, you just keep replaying all the good memories, all of the I Love You's, the future that should have been, and for a second all of the pain goes away. Then once you get in that mind state you try to figure out what went wrong and if you can fix it because you don't want to risk missing out on the reemergence of the "Old You" (in reference to the other person). Then you're right back where you started.....still holding on. Is it wrong to love someone so much that no matter what you always want to hold on?

"I've been changed and rearranged and it's not like it was before, and when the sun shines I'll show her why she can't keep me anymore....me anymore.....she loves me"

808's

2009-01-04T12:29:00.000-05:00

When tracks first started leaking from Kanye's highly anticipated album 808's and Heartbreaks, a lot of the critics were being quite skeptical and RUDE. They were saying he was "Experimenting," and other things like that. But me being the R.O.D. supporter of Kanye that I am, I never doubted the man! From the moment he first performed Love Lockdown....with his grey suit on and that lit up broken heart....I knew Ye was about to give me something I didn't even know I needed. 808's is good from beginning to end, bottom LINE. Ye starts with Say You Will, which is clearly about his ex-fiance and it's damn near everybody's favorite track on the album. Then he goes into Welcome To Heartbreak featuring my future husband KiD CuDi.....this song is about how Ye has been grindin thus far to get all that he has, yet he doesn't have the simple things in life, like a family or just time to be with his loved ones....I mean DAMN....your God sister got married by the lake and you couldn't even stay for the CAKE? That's tough Ye....cake is CLEARLY the best part! Moving on.....next up is Heartless, where he's talking about a cold hearted broad....THE END. I love Heartless as well....but let me tell you why.....that BEAT DROP in the beginning right after he does the chorus.....ILLY.....I immediately rock the shoulders like "You need to WATCH the way you're talking to me YO!" But it's not all about heartbreak on this album.....just when you think you're gonna have to cut yourself, Amazing begins to play...."my REIGN is as far as your eyes can see!" Jeezy blesses this track and does a pretty good job......very much expected from Mr.Jeezy Hamilton. Love Lockdown has enough bass to blow someone's speakers out....turn this one down a little when it comes on, let's not have an incident! Paranoid is just catchy as HELLLLL...."Why are you so paranoid...you worry bout the wrong things, the wrong THINGS!" LOL! But Real TALK No SHIT.....people don't be so paranoid that will drive Mr or the Mrs away. I'm not gonna lie...when I first heard Robocop I was NOT a fan...this is the one song that had to grow on me and it did "OK...Ok ok." Funny story about Street Lights....this was featured on an episode of Grey's Anatomy...a show I watch faithfully and get a lot of good music from. I'm not sure what I was doing....b/c I was paying attention during the entire episode, but I somehow did not hear them play Street Lights...and not a snippet...but the ENTIRE SONG! Needless to say I was pissed when everyone told me I missed it, but WHATEVER! Every time I hear Bad News I wanna go out and SALSA....is that weird? I don't think so....long story short, I like this track TOO...."Oh you just gon' keep another LOVE 4 YOU (that was for you JUSE)". In comes the Vocoder Abusers Anthem...See You In My Knightmares featuring Weezy Wee. EVERYBODY Loves this song......I mean it bangs, but I think people just fall into the Gillie Hype....OH...I mean Lil' Wayne Hype. Coldest Winter is apparently about his late mother Dr.Donda West.....it's sad just like the situation but the song is of course GOOD. Pinocchio Story is the last track on the cd and it's a live version. What bothers me about this song is the screaming fans in the background.....I mean this man is pouring his heart out, crying and shit....I'm pretty sure now is the one time where you should stop being a fan and just be a supporter by giving him your undying attention. If I had to rate this album on a scale of 1 to 10, I would give this bad boy 9.5 hearts(and not 10 b/c one of them had to be broken...for heartbreaks...get it? lol) ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. People can say what they want about Kanye and 808's.....the man lost his mother and his fiance around the same time, if that nigga wanted to rap about crayons I would listen. A lyric in the Coldest Winter says "Goodbye my friend, will I ever love again?" I mean I doubt Kanye will ever read this, but YES Ye.....you will Love again.

The Simple Things (pt. Un)

2009-01-03T16:38:00.006-05:00

Have you ever thought about the five senses...sight, touch, smell, hear, taste? They're such simple things but could you imagine what life would be like without one of these senses?

I'm going to start with TOUCH

Imagine if you didn't have the sense of touch. That means you can't feel the warmth of the sun on a warm day or the sensation of water hitting your skin in a hot shower. You wouldn't be able to feel a good firm handshake (I hate limp ass handshakes....man the fuck up! lol). No point in petting fluffy puppies because you can't feel anything. No running your fingers through anybody's hair (ladies if you are running your fingers through a dudes hair, that nigga better have locks or be John Stamos....b/c nigga's with long hair in this day and age are not POPPIN!). Now let's dig a little deeper: You know that feeling you get when you wake up next to *that person* and your arm is around them or their arm is around you....could you imagine not having that sensation? TERRIBLE.....just plain not good is what not having that feeling would be like. Next time you touch something and you get a good feeling, think about not having it and appreciate it all SO much more.

Ghostwriters

2009-01-03T15:04:00.005-05:00

I feel like if you are a rapper and you have a ghostwriter then you need to change professions! I don't think I could even ghostwrite for someone.....like I'm listening to the radio and I see nigga's feeling my shit and they don't even know its my shit? I understand that some people don't want the shine....but I'll be damned if someone who didn't work for it gets it. So apparently Jadakiss is a ghostwriter, as well as Jay-Z, T.I. and Gillie Da Kidd is a writer for Lil' Wayne. Do you see all this recent shine this nigga Wayne is gettin? No wonder Gillie pops shit about this nigga on his mixtapes...HE IS HIM....HIM IS HE...WTF? Nas, Skillz, Pharoahe Monch, and the D.O.C are all ghostwriters....for people like Will Smith, Dr.Dre, Diddy, Foxy Brown and even BIG were mentioned. BIG is some people's favorite rapper and you mean to tell me he didn't even write some of his shit? Just goes to show why Tupac was always better in my opinion! The ghostwriters say they don't feel "undervalued," but I mean WHATEVER.....if they're fine with collecting whatever money they get paid for their services but no credit then I'll leave it alone. But I'll never look at some of these so called "Rappers" who use ghostwriters the same way EVER again. Ohhhhhh the Fakerrryyyyyy!

How did we get here?

2009-01-03T13:44:00.003-05:00

"How did we get here?"

I realized that I was asking myself that question a lot towards the end of 2008 in reference to former friends or associates. In 2009 I'm going to turn over a new leaf in regards to how I handle friendships. Normally if someone does something wrong I think to myself "does this person have characteristics that would make me want to keep them in my life in spite of whatever situation has just occurred....or can they be let go?" I don't know any murderers (as far as I know....I wouldn't put it past some of these nigga's though!)....so I think I'm gonna start giving people more chances. I know that if I messed up I would want another chance to right my wrongs. One of my best friends gave me a second chance and if he hadn't I don't know what my life would be like now, SERIOUSLY! I know what its like to have a friend taken from you, so I don't think I'll be letting any more go unless its really not up to me. We meet people for a reason and I think we should take the time to figure out exactly what that reason is.

Thank You

2009-01-03T12:25:00.003-05:00

"Be polite!"

Any good parent raises their child to be polite, so when we're young we're told to say Thank You in appropriate situations. You get a gift from your Grandma...."Tell your Grandmother thank you!" Things like that....it just seems commonplace. But does the phrase "Thank You" hold the weight that it really should? I feel like people just say it now because its automatic like you don't really even think about it anymore. I know I do....like if someone holds the door for me, tells me "God Bless You," or other normal things like that. But when someone does something really great for you are you truly thankful or is it just another automatic response? If you say it five times, "thankyou thankyou thankyou thankyou thankyou," it doesn't mean more if you had said it ONCE! It only means something if you really mean it, like you thought about the act that was just done for/to you or the thing that was just given/taken from you and it completely changed your state. You are happier than you were before, your worries have gone down, things like that, or is it just another event in your day? The next time someone does something good for you.....I would suggest that you say Thank You and mean it, because its hard to hide it when you DON'T!

Ladies,

Bustin out the windows of someone's car......ILLEGAL! If he really wanted it then he would have put a ring on it.....no need to remind him! Please do not let Beyonce' and Jazmine Sullivan have you fooled! You can not do the same irresponsible shit that they sing about. Beyonce' has a ring on her shit, bitch SHUT UP. And if Jazmine busted out somebody's window her PR people would have a fucking fit. Don't get it twisted Single Ladies is my jam but by no means is it my anthem! Therefore I'm not about to hit up some old boo's talkin' bout "if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it!" You're just setting yourself up to get either played or cussed out, you're gonna look silly as shit regardless! And no nigga is about to make me upset to the point where if I act out my rage I end up in handcuffs.....some HOW! They say things like what's in their songs because it's entertaining so please whenever you feel like acting out one of these songs remember....Don't DO IT! If you weren't on TV before then lets not have COPS be your only avenue for getting on their NOW. PREEEEEAAAAAACH!

What the hell is inside of me?! Pt.1

2008-12-03T13:14:00.004-05:00

I have decided to do a series on a specific topic b/c I feel there are many different points that could fall under this category. If you are a female have you ever wondered what the hell was inside of you that makes you sooooooo different from a man? Clearly I'm not talking about the physical aspects but the shit on the inside, the emotional stuff! What is it......DNA....sweet baby Jesus? Who knows! But I'm going to point out some of the things that we do or handle differently.

Why is it that when a female starts talking to a new guy (friend or more) she shows her girls pictures of him? Its like a given, like she has to and trust we have all done it at least ONCE! Whether its through your phone, through facebook, through an email....HELL....I don't know if you send a Sketch by carrier pigeon, but your girls will see what this *New NEW* nigga looks like. Do you do it b/c you want to hear what the other girls think? Like if they say "Oooh girl...he is fine!" then you are immediately satisfied b/c you're like "haha BITCH...he is fine and I GOT HIM!" Or is it like when you get a new outfit, you just want people to see you with it b/c it looks good on you? Or is it like a new toy....you just wanna show people so you can be like "Just cause ya'll nigga's ain't gettin new shit, doesn't mean I'M NOT!" Who KNOWS why we do it....but we do! But please remember you can't show everybody because some of your friends want a *New New* nigga too and they will take him anyway they can....even if that means snatching him right from under you....TRIFE LIFE! Back to my point....I wonder if guys do this too? I doubt they do.....I highly doubt it actually. I don't believe that when I guy meets a new chick he shows photos of her, maybe he talks about her....but providing actual documentation of her existence....naaaah I doubt it. I have more guy friends than a little bit and none of my nigga's have ever showed me pictures of some chick they were talking to, they might have talked about her but never has a photo been shown. I guess we'll never know what the hell is inside of us that's NOT inside of them! And this is only the tip of the iceberg my friends.....there are soooooo many more differences to come!

Mr.Not Quite

2008-12-01T18:18:00.003-05:00

Have you ever met a guy who almost has it all but he's NOT QUITE all the way there?! I met one and he kind of turns my smile upside down! LOL....when I first met him he asked me for my number and I gave it to him b/c that's just what I do....if I can't find a good reason not to give it or take a number down then I'll give it, sad...I KNOW! But he also talked to a friend of mine at the party and not only got her number but he hit her up the next day as well....I mean we came to the party together, you couldn't have picked a strangers number to get? So that immediately told me that he was just racking up numbers that night for Gawwd knows what reason and that I needed not to take him seriously. So he would hit me up and ask when we were gonna hang out and I would be like you know whenever is cool, you seem like you'll be a great new friend....note I specifically said FRIEND!!!!! So whenever I saw him it was always in like a group setting and what not so that no one gets any ideas, but the sad part about it all is that he is actually a really great guy. He's very intelligent, good sense of style, very honest, and nice when he wants to be.....but this goes to show that sometimes how you start the race will determine how you end it. I mean I could be the only one missing out in this situation but that's a chance I'm willing to take because I don't have time for the games. He was sooooooooo close....but Not Quite!

Mister Solo Dolo

2008-11-29T04:03:00.004-05:00

Let say Hip-Hop was rushed to the ER and hooked up to a Heart Rate monitor....if Soujah Boy is the flat line going across the monitors screen, then Kid Cudi is that last minute Peak that makes you say "Wheewwww, that was CLOSE!" If you don't know who KiD CuDi is, then I'm glad that I can be the one to introduce him to you. He was born Scott Mescudi in Cleveland Ohio and is quite the cutie pie, if I don't say so myself....and if you read my earlier post you know I feel that the game has been lacking cuteness LATELY! He has a mixtape out with Plain Pat and the 10Deep clothing label. The title of the mixtape is A Kid Named Cudi and it is pure HOT fire, and FREE! I have listened to the mixtape almost everyday since I first downloaded it, sometimes multiple times a day because I just can't get enough of it. I felt like I liked it too much too soon so I had my friend listen to it just to make sure it really was that good and I wasn't just into because I felt like I was supposed to be (I mean the nigga has gotten big ups from Kanye and Q-tip....that's saying something) But nope....it really was that good. He rhymes (well!), sings(brotha can carry a tune...he ain't Phonte'....but he's acceptable) and he has something to actually SAY! Clap it up for KiD CuDi or as he often refers to himself as: Mr.Solo Dolo. For more info on my future husband and for the mixtape download go to his website HERE.

Mr.Bad Timing

2008-11-29T03:29:00.002-05:00

Timing is KEY! This rings true for so many aspects of life. Let me tell you for which aspect bad timing sucks majorly......RELATIONSHIPS. Have you ever met someone who either prior to your meeting they just got out of a long term relationship or you're the one coming out of some type of situation. So immediately you're just like.....great.....a new friend that will only be just that, a FRIEND. As soon as you see all the baggage: Crazy ex-girlfriend, recent bad memories, etc. you think to yourself....I ain't carrying that SHIT! It wouldn't be so bad if he were just some average schmoe, oh noooooo that would be to fair! Mr.Bad Timing is more than likely PERFECT. Nice structure: tall and dark, short and light...whatever you prefer. Has a nice style: dunks and recs, prada and gucci.....to each his own. Basically what you were looking for in your next RELATIONSHIP.....you just found in your new AWESOME(sense the sarcasm?) FRIENDSHIP......THUMBS UP! No....thumbs fucking DOWN! I mean new friends are great, but a new LOVE is soooooooooo much better! Its a friend with super powers...it can do other things a regular friend CAN'T or maybe SHOULDN'T do. It's a SUPERFRIEND! So you hang out with your new great friend hoping that some random eclipse, or meteor landing happens like in the movies and comics and BANG....your regular friend is now SOOOOOO much MORE. You just gotta ride out that wave and either two things can happen: 1. You have over time developed a great friendship with Mr.Bad Timing or 2. Mr.Bad Timing turns into Mr.Perfect Timing and it's HEY LOVE!

The Closet Hoe

2008-10-22T11:33:00.003-04:00

I love reggae, I really do! But reggae is the closet hoe of music genres. She is a freak on the low, and she hides it WELL! If you listen closely to some reggae songs they are saying some NASTY shit up in there. For example...the unedited version of "Dutty Wine" says something about fuckin in the water and fuckin in the sea, fuckin in the bushes and fuckin in the tree. If I could use one word to describe those crass lyrics it would be "Ugggghhhhh." Who is fuckin in the damn wilderness? I mean come on people lets be civilized and get yo ass in a room! DAMN. And then he proceeds to say that if you are fuckin in a bed then you are NOT...I repeat...NOT fuckin him! Well GOOD, because you sir are classless and untamed. We are not wild animals which means we need to be indoors if such acts are going to take place BUDDY! Another song I could use as an example would be "Hot Fuk." Enough said....I think. Basically the lyrics go Hot fuk Hot fuk Hot fuk ai ai ai ai ai! Really? Thats it? Yesssss.....they get straight to the point. Its no wonder the people in all those youtube videos at reggae concerts or a basement party with elephant man playing in the background always look like they are having straight PRISON SEX on camera. MY EYES ARE BURNING! So....just in case you weren't aware of her tendencies, I just dragged Reggae's hoe ass out the closet. I still bang wit her tho.....that's not gonna change! Hahaha.

Remember

2008-10-12T14:46:00.002-04:00

Everyday you wake up is already a good day, but it's the shit that happens during the day that determines if it will continue to be a good one. You either have a good day or a bad day, so always expect one or the other, and when you have a bad day just think to yourself "there's always tomorrow." I know that you go through the same shit...different day but you've got to believe that a change is gonna come and it may have to start with you!

Its ALL Entertainment @ The End Of The Day

2008-10-10T14:44:00.002-04:00

Why oh Why are you so surprised is the question that plagues me in my mind? Yes, that rhymed...and why might you ask....because I felt like it dammit! In this post I would like to address the issue of Rick Ross being a badge in his past life. I don't understand why people were so surprised to find out that Rick Ross isn't really as hard as he portrays himself to be, but I'm sure these are the same people who think his real name is RICK ROSS! It's not, by the way.

I mean are you surprised that Denzel Washington doesn't really have glasses and red hair, and doesn't wear a bow tie? He only played Malcolm X....that's not who he really is. Are you gonna be surprised if you run into Wesley Snipes and he doesn't have fangs and a sword strapped to his back? NO...because it's only entertainment. I watched Plies give an interview one time and wasn't sure if that was the same nigga that raps about "Bust it Babies" and what not, b/c he sounded mighty intelligent! But then again its a job. And most of these entertainers are very good at their JOB. David Banner graduated from Southern University in Louisiana, was the President of the Student Government Association and Pledged Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc. And you would probably never know that from listening to "Play." Ignorance, unfortunately, sells in todays society...so even if its out of an artist's character I'm sure they will play the part to make the dollar. There are some out there who aren't willing to compromise their art to make a quick buck, but these quality people are only a sample in the population (Statistics, shout out to Mrs.Coccimiglio). So we take what we get....a bunch of actors that RHYME (and some not very well).

Why Wouldn't I Care?

2008-10-09T13:35:00.002-04:00

"Why do you care what people think?"

I hate that phrase, deeeeeep down in my heart. I think that some people who use it are only doing so because it makes them seem less affected by what people think about them, they're cooler because they don't give a damn. WRONG! I had a friend (we're not friends b/c of this very phrase, sort of?) who got a lot of attention from females EVERYWHERE he went, but him and I had our own special friendship, relationship whatever, so he never treated me like those groupies and we were really playful and affectionate with each other. But when we were around people who didn't know us I didn't want to act like that and he just COULDN'T understand why! I told him that if you attract groupie bitches everywhere you go and then someone who doesn't know how you and I roll sees me and you all hugged up and playing then I just look like another groupie! "Why do you care what people think?" Ummm......well if I'm not a groupie, then why would I want someone to think that I am? DUH.....I DON'T! First impressions are everything and as HUMANS we tend to be judgemental, it may not be intentional but we just can't help it. So why wouldn't I want to censor my actions around people who don't know? It's not being fake, its just how I act if I don't know you, then if you want to get to know me you will learn more and more about me as time goes on. If you are my friend I could care less what you think about me b/c by now you know me, we're homies but a stranger is a different story. I doubt anyone wants to be portrayed as something that they aren't, so at the end of the day we all probably care, and since when did caring become a bad trait?

Stick 2 Your Own Kind

2008-10-01T23:02:00.002-04:00

Now....when I say stick to your own kind I don't mean race, religion, things like that! But what I do mean is if you know that your caliber as a human is LOW....then you need to find someone with an equal measurement. I'm so tired of ain't shit nigga's trying to match themselves with bout' shit females. Off jump we don't know you ain't bout shit.....so then the only one shocked is us because your foolish ass knew you won't bout shit. Its not fair for a caring, selfless, loving woman to be approached by a poser, a dude who acts as if he's a good catch when in all actuality if you could see who he really was inside you would toss his ass BACK into the shitty pond he came from! If ol' boy is a good enough actor and you cont. to see him then every engagement after the first meeting is just a step closer to uncovering the truth. In a sense you're just wasting that person's time and you would have been better off telling them for the giddy up, b/c now they're PISSED! Uggghhh! The same goes for ladies as well, if you know you are a gold diggin', can't cook, no car havin' heffa then go to the club and talk to the nigga that throws money out into the crowd. That's perfect bait for chicks like you and chances are he ain't bout shit EITHER. But how dare that same chick go to the good happy hour spots and try to push up on the well-educated, fly but not flashy, baby smooth skin havin' brotha by the bar. I wish we had electric collars we could put on you ain't shit people out there so that if you come within 5 feet of the bout shit people you get ZAPPED! You either need to upgrade to being about something or stick with your own kind.

10 yrs.....and still 1 of the BEST

2008-10-01T20:10:00.002-04:00

I just thought to myself, whenever Aquemini was released, I'll do an anniversary blog about it. And what do you know...I looked it up and Aquemini was released September 29th, 1998, marking this past Monday as its 1o year anniversary! POP CHAMPAGNE! To this day (even though I doubt I had the album on release day, so from the day I first heard it to this day sounds more appropriate) I still listen to Aquemini like its a current album. It's still seems so relevant and its just all around GOOD music. Good beats, lyrics, guest appearances....pretty much everything! Which is probably why this is one of the few albums that has received the very much sought after "5 mic" rating from the Source magazine. "Folk in ya face you're a supastar, niggaz hang around cuz of who ya are" from LIBERATION rings in my head over and over anytime I think about Aquemini as well as those beginning drums and horns of SPOTTIEOTTIEDOPALISCIOUS, I could go on and on. If you are reading this and you don't own this album....better your LIFESTYLE and go get it, HELP ME HELP YOU! This is one of the best hip-hop albums ever and I'm just going to end by saying "Now who else wanna Fuck wit' Hollywood Cole?"

Your Faults Will Not Be Mine

I recently had a revelation...

I will not allow the Faults of other men aid in the creation of my Own.

I was raised by one of the nicest women a person could meet. Its in my nature do what is asked of me. I think I'm a pretty a good friend on my good days and still a decent one on the bad one's. So why should I compromise how I was raised to be because other people may not do things the same way? If someone doesn't call me as often, I don't think I should have to lessen how much I want to talk to them. Whether they are a friend or more than that until you tell me otherwise I am going to treat you as such. I know what it feels like to go to sleep, wake up the next day and no longer be able to talk to someone you talked to almost everyday. I love people....I love talking to people and I will not lessen myself as a person b/c other people don't value the simple communications we have with one another. You never know who is having a terrible day and if that one random phone call from you could make them feel all the more better, then maybe people should start picking up the phone or dropping an email every now and again....just because you can. We're not all promised tomorrow so I'm gonna just say HI today, b/c that's just who I am and I'm not gonna change, but maybe you should?

More..More..More

Society. I think society drives us all to want more in life. No matter what we have, the advertisements always tell us there is something out there that is faster, better, stronger....WHATEVER, its just MORE! I think this is one of the reasons why people cheat. People always think the grass is greener on the other side, and once they've crossed over the shit just ain't what they thought it would be. People are less and less satisfied nowadays. People will find the smallest reason to fault others and use that as incentive to feel that they need more, when in all actuality the "more" that they think they'll find isn't really out there or instead is really LESS. As long as you have the love of another person what more could you really need? I don't think you really need much "MORE."

A grown man taking time out of his own busy day to hate on another grown man is a prime example of PURE Bitchassness! So apparently 50cent is claiming that Jay-Z was a "Nobody" before he married Beyonce', which I find to be the complete opposite of how it really is. Before Beyonce' was Boo'd up, let alone married to Hov....she was still running around wearing one of a kind Tina Knowles creations(from hell) while rocking blonde micro braids, then you put a little H to tha izzo in her world and she instantly became the baddest bitch in the game(so says Jay). Chick had the flyest gear, them lace weaves were on point and she just looked all around better all thanks to Hov. Hov was an international star before Beyonce', he's been out longer and after the blueprint ol' boy was untouchable! So I don't know WHERE Curtis is getting his information from......but I'm sure its from the hater factory. I mean I understand why he's upset....I'd rather wear Roca Wear than G-Unit(uuggghhh) and I'd definitely rather listen to American Gangster than....Curtis? At least I think that was his last shit bomb of an album. 2Quaters also takes time out of his day(on more than one occassion) to sit around and hate on Kanye West. He most recently made fun of Kanye's new single "Love Lockdown" during one of his own shows claiming he had come out with a new single and then proceeded to lip sync to Love Lockdown. I have one question for 10Nickels.....how is the ride on Kanye's dick? I mean great goodness.......you wish you had as much talent in your whole body that this brother has in his pinky NAIL. Jealousy looks good on no one CURTIS, esp. a stiffed jawwed, muscle headed, homo thug ass nigga such as YOURSELF!

Blue Eye'd Soul isn't gender specific if you ask me, so I've decided to do this post on those few females that fit in this category PERFECTLY. I know a lot of people have heard of Amy Winehouse and love her music, but there are plenty of other white female artists out there with extremely soulful voices. First up is Duffy, a welsh born big voice singer whose album "Rockferry" is Uh-Mazing. My favorite track on the album is "Stepping Stone" and I would suggest all to preview her material. Second is Adele, an english born singer who has more of a jazzy feel to her deep voice. Her album "19" is a smooth listen, that rainy day & a good book type of listen. I suggest giving her lead single "Chasing Pavements" a listen, to understand what I'm talking about. Third and lastly is SIA, an australian singer with a voice to be reckoned with! She has put out five albums, the last one being "Some People Have Real Problems." From that album I would suggest listening to "Day Too Soon" and "Soon We'll Be Found." She also has a live album entitled "Lady Croissant," which has her performance of a Zero 7 song she was featured on that displays the raw capabilities her voice has, so I would suggest listenting to "Distractions(live)." Well I think that about wraps up GoWhiteGirl 101......til' next time....class dismissed!
