impromptu interview

yesterday morning, murs and tech n9ne stopped by the office to finish up some business with the boss man. [PLUG: PAID DUES 2009. MARCH 28TH. CLICK.] my supervisor in all her genius came up with the idea to interview them before they head out, but conveniently, with all odds against us. meaning: no video camera, no mic, no interviewer. but here at gu, we get shit done. after a bit of chaos, of course.

the following is the unedited version of whats on the internet right now. recorded in the in-house studio, interviewer daylen from hip hop official over speaker phone, and me recording with some ghetto olympus. please excuse the poor quality.



i love my job <3

fuckery

nothing good comes out of violence. right, ms. amy?

the infamous crackhead we all have grown to love was forced to cancel her appearance at coachella after being denied a visa to come to america. a poor unknowing fan requested a photo with ms. amy but instead received a nice pow right in the kissa. sad thing.

although she wasnt one of my priorities to watch this year, it would have been nice seeing her again. contrary to that face, her voice is mesmerizing live--recordings dont do her justice.

[coachella 07]

they should just replace her with this amy. i'm sure she can just stand there and get an applause.

[gotta thank joannanna for supplying these pictures to soothe our eyes!]

ignorant

rant of the day: some ignorant writer from USmagazine calls MIA "latina"...

[muy caliente]

oh, come on! get your facts straight before you write an article to be posted all over the web and especially if you work for a major mag like US. who cares if her baby's name is ickett, you cannot pass up important details, such as her ethinic background. and her ethnicity/culture is the reason why her baby has such a "strange name" to you. gah.. go educate yourself. she's sri lankan, you idiot. [continue]

*EDIT:
AAAND the baby's name isn't even ickett..
so annoyed right now

how ive missed you.

my long lost romance with eminem rekindled after hearing "crack a bottle" for the first time. regardless of all the crappy shit on the radio, i would sit on power106 just waiting, hoping itd come on. it was refreshing, and made me nostalgic for the "forgot about dre" and "stan" days. maybe im being a little to kind with my words (especially since we've all heard him do better), but it's just so good to have him back.


[hilarious]

but whats amazing (or potentially disastrous) is the release of not 1 but 2 albums this very lucky 2000of9. expect relapse to drop May 19th and relapse2 before the year ends. "A lot of people were expecting Relapse to drop last year," said Eminem. "I was one of them. Then Dre and I went back in the studio in September for a few days, and that turned into six months. We were on such a roll; we wound up with a ton of new music produced by Dre. Putting out Relapse 2 will let everyone get all of the best stuff." [continue]

excited.

now as for that 3rd wheel on the single.. ive had this hatred for 50cent since he first made headlines. but i gotta admit, his flow on "crack a bottle" isnt half bad. and all his music ive been avoiding have actually been pretty decent. i just hate the entrepreneur in him. curious how he is live? check it here:

[insanely random]

sigh. the lows they'll stoop to to save this festival.

rude

sorry, blogspot. but time has escaped me.

its only 12:30am and im already sleepy as hell, which is weird. but just a quickie before i hit the good ole sack:

sublime "reunion"..?!
witness it here.

this morning, mr. bossman described to a few of us "the resurrection" of the legendary band that he was so lucky to witness last saturday. its a shocking fact to get over: someone actually replacing the late and great brad nowell. but if the 2 remains of sublime actually believe in this rome guy to be the new face, than i suppose we should all give him a chance. plus, mr. bossman was so damn enthusiastic about rome i couldnt help but respect his talent already.

click above and see for yourself. supposedly the video does him no justice, but for a lot of us, im sure we dont care. new brad has got a lot of proving to do before we transfer our loyalties from old brad.

kid and play

i dont recall the last time i saw riverside at 7 in the morning. it was refreshing.
the combination of the warm sun with the freezing breeze and the just-fallen rain.. if the moment were a mixed drink, it would be my new favorite.

my sister, adm, grace, and i volunteered to help joanna in her classroom this morning because today equaled the 100th day her 1stgraders have survived being institutionalized in this great america! i guess they celebrate that nowadays?

:] it was tight.

..and fun, and extremely rewarding. as soon as we walked in (late, of course) we began our activities which consisted of:
-100 snacks
-100 smiley face stickers
-100 fruit loops as a necklace
-100 tally marks as a bracelet
-100 fun excercises on the blacktop
-100 seconds of quietness
-and 100 more things!

those darn kids are so freakin cute. maybe i'll want one of my own someday. they can call me 'ms. jo'

[thanks for the name tag, ms. molo :) ]
