Tuesday's lessons from the SC

-if you are returning Netflix DVD's that you have seen that your wife hasn't because she takes too long. Don't ask her to drop them in the mail

-Don't bet on the Jets, no matter how good the line is. I love them, but they are not gonna do squat this year

-The New York Football Giants are gonna go far this year

-The Knicks? I am not too sure of, yet

SC Randomness

-Bertelsmann Set To Launch Legal P2P Service

-A Christmas Kanye video?

-The Source is like the Fox News of Hip-Hop. Journalists fromting like they care about journalism instead of their own private agenda

-Rappers are more like Republicans than you think...think about it

fiscally conservative

Anti-welfare

Hard on crime

Corrupt and under indictment

Not very bright

and Violent

that's how the SC's abs look

 

Just another Manic Monday...

just some randomness today. The SC is fighting a cold, so he will be taking it light today.

-buy,rent, netflix 'Crash'. I netflixed it this weekend. An awesome piece of cinema. Don Cheadle is the man. And he is the only Black actor besides Denzel who has never shucked nor jived.

-Ludacris did a great job as well. A real performance like WIll Smith's 1st role. Before he became a matinee idol

-Also reccomended to buy is The Wu Tang Manual. Check page 160

-Sin City was also on the Netflix list for the weekend. Much better than I thought. Rodriguez really pulled off the graphic novel on film. Real groundbreaking stuff

-Jessica Alba is a dime +!

Some interesting links to give you a chuckle throughout the day

It's all about Danger Doom, ladies

So I am now an iTunes flag waver. Once I said I would never pay for
downloads, but I am not sure which p2p's are the move these days. That,
combined with my lack of patience has led me to the iTunes music store.
When I do buy music (my jaded industry ass expects everything for free)
I don't see myself buying any more CD's or vinyl. Zap that thing str8 to
the iPod.

It does suck that these online retailers are woefully inadequate when it
comes to classic hip-hop.

Criminal Minded - no.
The Big Daddy - no.
Labcabincalifornia - no.

And a lot of the best indie stuff is nowhere to be found. In terms of
selection, iTunes is only minorly more diverse than a Tower Records. As
usual the Wes Jackson demographic is ignored. However there is help on
the way...

Tired of trying to find redeeming qualities in the Southern Hip-Hop
invasion. Sick of boring, uninspired indie releases. Fed up with
overhyped major label forays into real Hip-Hop. Want to stop playing
albums from '95 just to remind why you got into this biz. Well help has
arrived.

I have seen thy face, thou art 'Danger Doom.'

I have not listened enough for a Mark Cilantro level review, but I will
tell you this is off the top, one of the best long players of '05. We
all know Doom. He does his thing. His performance is still not on the
level of Doomsday, but just as good of a performance as Madvilliany, for
sure.

As for the beats, when Danger Mouse came out with the Grey album, I was
thoroughly unimpressed. I began to change my tune when I heard that
Gorillaz joint with Dave from De La. With the 'Mouse and The Mask' I am
a believer. Jazzy samples, interesting 3 bar loops and overall
production that compliments Doom's lazy flow.

Danger Mouse is the new Madlib.

However, the best part is the cameos from the Adult Swim lineup. Shake
from Aqua Teen Hunger Force pops up I think 3 times. Leaving messages
for Danger. Carl, Meatwad, Space Ghost and Ur make cameos. Although
these contributions can sound like a Cartoon Network commercial it's all
to the good-dood.

Go get it.

Later,

The SC aka The Sofa King

'now Miles if you look real close you can see where Milk comes from'

So here's the deal on Mondays...

...it's real busy in the office so the chances of a real update are slim. So Monday will be very image heavy.

Went down for the UVA/FSU game this weekend (BTW, my 'Hoos got in that ass) so here a pics of all the DC area babies I was able to see.
My niece and godson.
No pics of lil Asheru or Medina - damn! And no pics of the seeds of Rock, el Grande. My bad.

Also a rare pic of the SC and my Ace, CWIII


Enjoy the day...

Pandemonium ensues...

That's Sunshine Scooter, Sweetheart!

 

I'm about to build an ark up in this b*^%h...

Rainy day. The SC is on babysitting duty.

some randomness

with your little dun

-that new Monk/Coltrane album is dope...mainly because it put Miles to
sleep for his nap today

-watching Making The Band 3...Andre Harell in the house. That guy keeps
a job, huh?

All my people in NYC know what the hell I'm talking about.

Some randomness for the day

-This Murder Inc investigation thing is fully on blast. wow

-After a firestorm of pre-release pub I haven't heard much about the Little Brother album. What's the word on the street? Is the SC just out of the loop?

-Enough already about the Yankees. I am from the Bronx and I don't care!

-and it is never too early to start pontificating about the Knicks

new Outkast movie looks dope.... 

Rainy Tuesday

-New Mos Def/Kweli tour and music? Honestly, I hope it's better than their last 2 albums respectively. I had to struggle to find records to sink my teeth into. I tried, trust me.

-if you have 10 minutes to kill check this out, it's hilarious. Toss W's ass around for a while

-How is that Danger Doom record. i have high hopes

So as you know I sweat HBO for Rome, now that Entourage's season is over. For those not up on this great show here are a few reasons to spend your Sunday nights with Gaius Julius Caesar

-last week had an unexpected lesbian love scene involving a good looking MILF

-the other participant in the lesbian love affair als had a self masturbation scene that was nice

-for the ladies (or those into it - we don't discriminate here) last week there was significant male nudity. A rare TV full frontal penis shot - twice

-Tutus Pullo and Vorenus are like Danny Glover and Mel Gibson. Ecxept they are both white, Roman and for some reason have British accents. Pullo is my man though!

-Marc Anthony is like a pre Christian era pimp. Complete with fresh body guards in red sack cloths

-Fellow English major nerds like the SC will appreciate the writing

-Verinus's wife Niobi is baaaad!

-History nerds are also telling me it is pretty accurate

Check it out, you won't be dissapointed. Also Curb Your Enthusiasm and Extras is cool too.

In other news

-Off to the good Charlottesville this weeked to see my Cavs take on the Seminoles. Let's hope they don't get their ass whopped too bad.

'shouldn't you be working??!?!' 

'Fumi, there is an easier way to crack that thing open' 

This what they were doing when they should have been working on Friday 

'Shut up! there is no Santa Claus!?!?! I didn't even get one XMAS to pimp the myth" 

The office went apple and pumpkin picking on Friday... Miles says "while they pose for anther picture I am gonna GUM THE SHIT out of this pumpkin"
