Stop snitching on yo damn self


Can you blame a snitch when you get knocked if you base your career on chronicling your past and current crimes?

I am sure Cam’ron is gonna blame Curtis for the probe into Cam's tie to an uptown Blood leader. But it wouldn't seem fair.

I am no big Dipset fan but I know of at least 2 records 'Curtis' part 2 and the joint Kanye produced where Killa references his criminal activity. Does he think there are no young cops and DT's who listen to the radio and read sohh?

With these big mouth rappers there is no need for snitches. The criminals (if you believe their tales) will give you locations, amounts and quasi confessions.

This reinforces my point that they are either lying or stupid or both.

Randomness:

-Rome has me on the edge f my seat my nerd ass is n wikipedia researching the real story
-Battlestar Galactica, ditto

Things to be happy about

his name is Lovie (#4)

          1. Supposedly Monday was the most depressing day of the year. Historically. The weather. Holidays are over. Bills, etc. And I beleive it. be happy it's over.

          2. Either way you cut it a Black coach is going to win the Super Bowl. That is big. Don't downplay it.

          3. As someone who has to deal with loud mouth pundits who never put their money where their mouth is I was rooting for Peyton Manning. Third rate commentators cum broadcasters sit there and throw stones at these cats all year long. I don't know how they manage it. I love it when players' actions burn through their arguments.

          4. His name is Lovie!

          5. These blogs who are giving me the best records in creation - for free! God bless you.

          6. Did I mention Miles is all about using the potty? Love it.

          7. The possibility that Nas may come to the Festival. Just the hope warms my heart.

          8. Professional lacrosse in New York

          9. Living in New York itself

          10. The Food Network and the ill recipes it gives me so I can cook for my family

          11. The dude who invented the PlayStation.

          12. Rome, Battestar Gallacttica, 24, and Heroes

          13. IODA

          14. Hip-Hop. the good and the bad

          15. the DVR

          16. The time this gig gives me to spend time with Miles and the fam

          17. the dude who saved the guy in the subway. and him getting shouted at during the State of The Union

          18. Barack Obama. Now when I tell Miles he could be president he can believe it.

          Be Happy y'all

          Last post before the new year





          Randomness for the end of the year.
          MOVIES to catch before vacation is over
          -'Excalibur'. Great 80's cheesy special effects. Netflix it
          -Casino Royale. Best Bond flick I have ever seen. Now I am not a Bond nut so I am sure many will disagree. Netflix 'Layer Cake' to appreciate the new Bond more
          - 'Thanks For Smoking'

          SPORTS
          -The Knicks are on their way back
          -The Giants are not. and I will be freezing my butt off on Saturday as they potentially end their sh**ty season
          -Coughlin has got to go
          -Tiki played the whole retirement thing wrong. I would have hated him in the locker room

          MUSIC
          - "30 Something" is a great song to pump while working off pecan pie on the eliptical machine
          - I see from AOL Sessions Lupe has seen how a Hip-Hop artist can benfit from a DJ. What a revelation
          - Videos have regressed and BET sucks
          - I see why they retired Uncut. They just intergrated the show into their daily programming
          TV
          - Battlestar Gallactica
          - The Food Network
          word

          Parting words - be mindful of what you do.
          My brother in law works for AP and was shooting the JB funeral yesterday. What he and his collegues chose to shoot will determine how millions view the Godfather of Soul. What seem like simple decisons can be more powerful than you can imagine.

          Please Baby Please JB vs mugshot, bad perm JB
          Fat Elvis vs Slim Elvis
          Fat bloated Jim Morrison vs leather pants Jim Morrison
          Inaguration Gerald Ford vs falling off the plabe Gerry Ford
          Chair throwing Bobby Knight vs Isiah loving, chapionship winning Bobby Knight
          How will your work be remembered?
