Da Wicked Jumpshot: While your waiting for the moments that never come!!!

The Only One’s

Aww the haziness of summer is upon us…..We yearn for the sunny mornings where you can sleep under the window and that gentile summer breeze…..Also time for vacation, mainly for the 1st family. Will it be Camp David, maybe Hawaii…Decision..Decision!!!. We’ll if early reports are true the 1st fam will be chilling at the Hamptons. I’m not really shocked, it’s a typical hangout for Black Dems. The Clintons and Kennedy will also be in surrounding areas--if they need some weak liberal tea time. As you can sense from the potency of my words, I’m not a huge fan of the played out Hamptons. A little background on the Hamps for those who think it just started getting popular after PDiddy party: “In 1912, a former slave named Charles Shearer opened the first summer inn in Oak Bluffs that catered specifically to black patrons. Only a few dozen blacks visited the island at the time, but over the years Oak Bluffs has become the summer meeting place for scores of what could be called the Only Ones—black professional and social elites who travel in worlds where they’re often the only black person in the room. The Only Ones typically break into fields or companies that admit few blacks, move into neighborhoods where few blacks live, and send their kids to mostly white schools. They are not running from their own—they’re chasing after the best they can get. They aren’t assimilationist”they’re ascensionist.”

Very interesting, I know some of these Only Ones..or should I say I know the type. There usually the fairer skin blacks, very proper, smart, most of the guys date white woman and do serious hard drugs i.e. more then weed. The girls are gorgeous, smart and very very freaky. In fact we had a group called Jack & Jill similar to them. They would constantly try to “recruit” me and my family to join there pseudo gang. One way or another we never joined them, I Guess we were too Hip-Hop for them. As i get older I’m still too hip-hop for them but I do see there point a little clearer. Chris Rock said it best..”I Love Black People, I cant stand Niggaz”.

That’s the Dilemma I face. I’m part of a New Wave of Black Intellect that’s smart, edgy & knows how to thrive and communicate with other cultures. We grew up listening to Biggie, Jay, Nas and Pac…watching movies like Menace, Juice, Goodfellas, Do the Right Thing and X. Were smart, dominant, quick tongued with a dash of hip-hop. Were like Jedi’s, caught in between the word of Black upper crust yet were not corny and insidious. UGGGh.

Getting back to the story at hand, who really gives a ish’ where the 1st family stays for there million dollar a week summer vacation. Most of us, work our asses the whole summer just to maintain and maybe take some small mini vacations. You see the fundamental difference is rarely color or other topical things….it’s the Elitist Attitude. I guess I wont be invited to Puffy’s Linen Party Now!!!

Another Week, Another One Drops

Just last week I presented the formula for happiness, If your under 60 and Rich..Don’t get married. Simple rule, no if and or but’s about it. Do they listen, Do they heed the jewels I’m dropping ….NO. Just this week, Gov. Stanford of the fine Palmetto state of South Carolina, called a press conf. admitting to an affair. Now this isn’t really is breaking news but how the whole thing unraveled is very very interesting. Stanford is a father of 4 (wow the kids look like they could be in the 60’s rock group The Animals-

Anyways his wife is a Heiress to the Skil Power Tool empire…another words she caked up and probably bankrolled most of his campaigns. Ok, so he’s a republican that heavily pushes the whole Christian faith base initiative, in fact he was on the track to run in 2012 ticket. So how does he show his love for wife and family, He sneaks out on plane to Argentina to see his mamacita--and of all the weekend’s-- Father Day….lol. That’s str8 Mack and Playa ‘ish. I have a few points of Beef with the whole situation:

Man your side-piece can’t be in damn Argentina, are you telling me you couldn't find a Argentina-like honey in S. Carolina
Don’t ever…and i mean leave a paper trail. Didn’t we learn anything from the Enron cats shredding docs and more importantly Kwame Killypatrick (the big homey kept it real tho). Peep Gov. oops I mean Playa Don Sanford emails to Shorty (Full Love Emails). Here’s a small excerpt "Despite the best efforts of my head my heart cries out for you," he writes in another one. (I wonder what head he’s referring to…lol!) and lastly “Send you millions of kisses that will last till we get in touch again. best wishes from the deepest of my heart.P.S.: I don’t want to put the genius (sic) back in the bottle because I truly believe in freedom. I never gave you sexual details but now you don’t need to imagine you can close your eyes and just remember. I’ll do the same.” (Is genius the new word for cock…lol, btw way do you know what S. Carolina symbol is……GameCocks…..LOL)
We’ll not really a beef, but the fact that you ain’t even tell no one in your staff, where you went to. Nobody, you don’t have no good friends on your staff that you could have told. I don’t mind cheating (more on this later) but the irresponsibility of leaving your state high and dri(sp) like the cheap deodorant is not cool.
Ok, last Beef, cut all that Christian Value stuff out. In his presser he constantly mentions Christian this and Bible references. In fact he goes as far as compare himself with the Might King David--Bible's King David - “who continued to lead after sleeping with another man's wife, Bathsheba. "What I find interesting is the story of David, and the way in which he fell mightily ... but then picked up the pieces and built from there,". This is the GOP problem, all these lames cheating, asking for gay sex…and then screaming the Christian values shyt is a joke--You acting on your own behalf..enjoy it.

Where do we go from here…Who knows and who cares. People… Guys think about one thing….from about the age of 9 to the day we die, we think of one thing. Its that simple, screw money, screw sports, screw cars and everything else. Here the damn governor of of one of the biggest states in union, his wife is paid, he got a nice family and he still cheats….This is bigger then everything!!!!! I don’t think he should resign. I think he should write a book called Disgraced Christian Values.Once again….Fellas if your under 60 & Rich don't get married.!!!

It’s really Amazing what Religion will do to ya??

I recently had a conversation with the most special lady in the world, my NANA. this was on one of the 1st convos we’ve ever had were i felt like we was just rapping and chilling, not a lot of religious talks etc. She’s a master public speaker and communicator, between her and my parents my mouth game was ordained to be top notch. In saying that, Black Religion is out of control, once gain the little thing called Fear has reared it ugly head again. Blacks and the whole Gay thing are just taboo. Here’s what one “chuuuch” is doing to correct that problem--

I’m almost speechless, but it never cease to amaze people. The stupidly and fear is insane. The kid and I say kid cause he not 18 yet, probably at this point almost believes what’s going on is helpful. My stomach is in knots watching this clip, where the kids family, look at the faces of the followers even they seem shocked but don’t do anything. For once I’m speechless and no I’m not saying all black churches are like this but usually more are then not. I think this church should have Playboy Gov. Sanford over for some “Lying of the Hands”

White Mans Burden

I’ve always felt that Eminem and Justin Timberlake should hook-up and do a song called White Mans Burden talking about the hate they get breaking into “black music”….it would be a smash of epic proportions. Hale they drop a World Tour, Concert Dvd’s that would be huge, Aretha Franklin Huge. Well apparently the Supreme Court beat EM and Timberlake to the punch. In a case heard and tried this week a Uconn firefighter was ruled to be a victim of “Reverse Racism” in a getting a promotion. Now I’m not going to bore you with the details but “Reverse Racism” is a very interesting concept and idea. One part of me says “GTFOH”..the less emotional side says I’m sure this practice goes on more then we think. One must akin it to the hate the Lakers get, White Men are probably more in-wardly hated for there position on the food chain, same as the Lakers. Now, lets make one thing clear, it’s virtually impossible for a minority to be Racist or participate in the practice of Reverse Racism by simple definition of the word. Racism is defined as controlling someone's destiny. Very rare do minorities have a position of power to control others destiny.

I woke up smiled at the Man in the Mirror, Feeling edgy I called shorty over told her I wanna be starting something, she told me to Beat It, So I did…HeHE

The real beauty of music is everyone can enjoy it and it can place you at a point and time. Mike defined the the word Crossover---white, black etc all loved and enjoyed his music. I personally was a fan of his work in the 70’s, in fact I think Off the Wall was a much better album then Thriller but Thriller is you know Thriller. My sister called me to tell me that Mike got touched, you could hear the sadness in her voice. She was visibly upset and weeping. It not like she bought a Mike Cd in the last 15yrs but it was like part of her youth was gone. Mike was and is the King, there no maybe’s. It like when you ask comedians who the best…black, white all say Pryor. That that…..he’s The King.

My Top 4 Mike Joints

MAYBE TOMMOROW

ALL THAT I GOT IS YOU

Mike voice and depth was incredible. Ghost is the most thought provoking MC ever, you feel every emotion when he rhymes.

BEN

I’ve gone on record saying this is the most special love song. The depth, the humility, the openness in his voice is paramount, add that up to the fact that he’s only 13 when he sings it. One of the very few songs that brings me close to tears when I hear & I don’t even know why….

JAM

MJ, MJ23 at his zenith add a verse from Heavy D and a cameo by Kris Kross and you got Jam. Peep, the 6min mark, where MJ tries to teach MJ23 how to dance. Amazing how an athlete like Jordan is so robotic and stiff while Mike Jack is fluid and smooth as as a baby ass.

Shake your Body

Pure energy, the grove is funky, Mike is feeling it, the dance take the track to another level. This is feel good music, this it raw defined Energy!!!!

Sad to see Mike go but his catalog is sick, for all the youngins this is why Youtube was invented. Enjoy True Undisputed Gr8ness

Match-Up

Sad to see Ed Mcmahon go, happy to see Flav get ready for another season on Flavor of Love. I was thinking there 2 of the biggest Second Bannans in entertainment history. The question remains who’s the better 2nd Chiquita. BTW is it me or bananas always on sale…never mind…Tale of the Tape..

	Ed Mcmahon	vs	Flavor Flav
Catch Phrase	Heeeere’s Johnnnny!!!	=	Yeeeeeeh Boy!!!!
Lead Banana	Johnny Carson	<	Chuck D
Biggest Solo Deal	Star Search	>>	Delishis Backyard…2nd 911 a Joke (distant)
Biggest Fall-off	Ed rapping for some doe via Free Credit Report	=	The short lived UPN TV show-Under 1 Roof….brutal

911 is Joke!!!

Ed McMahon Raps

Sorry Ed, Flavvvvooor Flav got this one hands down. Even though your work on Star Search get’s mostly overlooked, your were a Hollywood Legend. Flav,…well Flav was the ultimate 2nd banana to one of the most influential rap groups ever plus his work on Flavor of Love and the bagging of Delishis is some reality I never thought I see.!!

Notes and Ish’

I Hate (I know it’s a strong word) ~~Manassas, VA~~

If I don’t move I’m going to go Kimberly from Melrose Place just before she blew up the complex crazy. This place is draining my creative juices. You have to be leery of a place who’s main attraction is the State of the Art Crystal Meth Lab..!!!!

Another tidbit of this forsaken place, Last week marked the 16th anniversary of the Lorena & John Bobbit incident, you remember when she after a so called rape cut his member off….and guess where that happened, Yup Manassas….you can't make this ‘ish up if you tried.

Hearing and reading about Cali financial problem leads me to think one thing…… You voted the Terminator as your leader….really the Terminator. What did you expect to happen!!!!

Don’t know if you have been following the the largest DC embezzlement case. Quick Review; Harietta Walters worked for the DC Tax office and managed to embezzle 48mil. Now that’s not the funny part of the story, the funny part is the items the feds took from her house after her arrest. Items included 100 pieces of jewelry, 90 designer handbags, 18 watches a new Benz and the best one yet-- a silver Iguana figurine. If I was blind and you read this story to me, I’m sure I would have guessed she was Black. Gotta Love It!!!

Banga of the Week

My good buddy twitter me the Anything Remix by SWV and Wu-Tang. What a song, another 90’s girl group that was damn solid was Xscape. Signed to So-So Def, they had a string of hits culminating with my favorite one..Who Can I Run To. It’s funny cause I was talking with my good buddy about the BET Awards & former member-Tiny new tv show. She’s T.I. Baby Mama and I guess that warrants a show now. I don’t know why they broke up or what there doing now but this song is classix. Added Bonus, I found the original song(Jones Girls)…What you thought they were the 1st--To be honest I think Xscape did it better….No Ideas Original
