Last Night In St.Paul, MN…

History in the making…

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Before a crowd of cheering thousands, Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois laid claim to the Democratic presidential nomination Tuesday night, taking a historic step toward his once-improbable goal of becoming the nation’s first black president.

Just in case you weren’t paying attention as history was unfolding, GO HERE for more video excerpts, etc.

M*anifest is ‘That Deal’.

“His observations culminates into some incredible songs where you feel like you’re listening to someone with an incredible gift. I’m not saying ‘gift’ in a special way, as if everyone should bow down and worship the man, even he might agree with me. But rather he knows how to speak and write, a hip-hop craftsman in a field that has been lacking… craft.
-The Run Off Groove-

Polished, lyrical, engaging, and definitely cut from a different cloth: M*anifest is the cat who’s definitely the ‘Dame Dizzles’ meow. You see, when it’s grind time, I’se be reaching out for something to help put my daily dilemmas into perspective. As of late, my morning wake up call consist of “Mr.M*ans” friendly reminder that everything is going be ‘Okay’ (Props to ‘mensa’ for the production on this joint).

Thanks for the raptastic memo, M*anifest. Music is meant to INSPIRE! Keep them them jewels a’comin’.

Hey, Okay,kay,kay,kay?

Check for this brother and enlighten your music lovin’ friends.

Renowned hip-hop producer and beatmaster extraordinaire DJ Blaqstarr (oops we spilled the beans!) makes a killer cameo in the 612 tonight, and we strongly suggest you don’t miss it. Jonathan Ackerman kicks things off the right way. ” - letoile magazine

The Devil Is A LIAR.

Damn you “NoNo” for sending me this messed up video (see below). It’s more jacked up than the code on your Myspace page. *teasing*

Not sure how much of what is said in this video is true, but I do know watching it gave me the chills. Regardless of the validity of this mans psychotic confession, the bottom line is there ARE people in the world who share his twisted and evil mentality…MURDERERS, ready, willing and waiting to slay you with an orgasm. This clip serves a reminder as to why people need to take their sexual encounters more seriously…and always, always, protect yourself as much as possible. I’m not trying to put a damper on any ones weekend plans…but you really should watch this and think about it.

I was saving the following information for a post closer to the month of May, but since I reviewed the “AIDS MAN” video…I think I’mma post it up…right about now…

Erick and Parrish Are Still Making Dollars…

Good News for the Locals:

One of the dopest old-school Hip-Hop duos, EMPD, will be rockin’ the spot at the Varsity Theater, May 21st, 2008. Admission to the show-show is FREE, providing you RSVP and make it to the venue in a timely manner (Cuz you will get assed out if you try to stroll in tardy. Anybody remember the popularity of Redmans show?).

Because I’m an Original B-Girl, I remember when they dropped “Strictly Business” and crushed the scene with “You Gots To Chill“. That shit was so hard for it’s time. It was also 20 years ago. I was 15. Fifteeeeen! Dang, I’m old. I’ve lovethed me some Erick and Parrish ever since. I thank them for Redman, Keith Murray, the Def Squad and all of that.

Needless to say, yours truly will be in the building.
