These 2 albums are dropping on Tuesday. 50 cents "Curtis", and Kanye Wests "Graduation". They have developed somewhat of a rival over whose album is gonna sell better. I have heard both, and I can 100 percent say that Kanyes is light years better then Curtis. 50's album sounds like any other one of his albums, or any other one of G-Units album. Its boring, every song sounds the same, all the lyrics are the same, and the production is pretty bad too. Now banging Dre beats I noticed. It mite actually be 50's weakest album. Now on for Kanye's Graduation. I love this album. It has such a upbeat feel to it. You have some real uplifters, and some songs that are just mad mellow. On this album you can actually tell the difference between songs. Kanye's back to using sampling and this new album sounds a lot more like "College Dropout". I think its better then "Late Registration" but not as good as "College Dropout", which is a classic. Kanyes album is VERY good. 50 Cents album is whats wrong with hip hop, and why Nas claimed Hip Hop was dead. Dont support that idiot. Im gonna go delete that garbage off my computer.

MJ At the Movies 3

Ok...So I just saw the new "Halloween" directed and written by Rob Zombie. This is a remake of the John Carpenter classic, and I'm assuming Zombie pays respect and throws a jab at critics, by repeately showing the original "Thing" movie, which Carpenter went on to remake. I guess thats Zombie poking fun at critics that hate remakes. Now what do I think of the film? (Spoiler Free) I like the way its shot...I also love the performance of Dr.Loomis done by McDowell. The movie dives into Michael past as a small child. We see his stripper mom, slutty sister, abusive step dad. Typical shit. He gets bullied at school. See the thing is here, he doesn't seem like a bad kid. He might kill rats sure, but everyone around him see's evil, and according to his shirt, he loves Kiss. So anyway he snaps and kills all the bad people in his life. This is where I started noticing the problem with this film. You will actually find yourself rooting for Michael Meyers. Throughout the film, he only kills two people who I guess you could say "didn't deserve it". He kills whores and sluts, guys trying to rape a girl, abusive fathers, loud talking truckers...he's very human in this film, which for me takes away from the "horror" element. I just could not be afraid of him, and felt bad for him. Maybe I'm just sick. Was it enjoyable? Yes. Was some of the dialogue terrible? Yup. If thats how teenage girls really talk, then guys aren't nearly as horny as chicks. Why is everyone SO horny in horror movies? Every line out of a teenagers mouth is about sex. Jeez...I just re-read that last sentence, am I getting old or what? Overall its worth seeing in theatres. It's not a masterpiece like the first, but a HELL of a lot better then this shit they've been passing as horror lately, like "Saw" and "Hostel" and all those new "Texas Chainsaw Massacres".

I would like to wish a happy 18th birthday to Hayden Pattentrie. I love how fat geeks online count down the days until a girl like this turns 18, then on her birthday they celebrate. Oh now thats shes legal, these guys can finally bang her. Ha! Because you know her being underage is the only thing preventing it from happening. I'm gonna label this girl as the next big thing, and also the next Lindsay Lohan. Yup...shes probly gonna go fucking insane soon and end up in rehab. Its a shame really.

I was always very pro smoking. I always thought a cig after a long hard day was just as good as a beer. It started out very casually, I only smoke when I drink. Then I found myself adding things. I need a smoke while I'm driving, and you have to have a smoke after I eat. Still no problem, except for the money, because cigs are expensive. In the back of my mind I always wanted to quit completly, but never had the will power. So tonight, I come home after a night of drinking, and can't stop from coughing. I go in the bathrrom and cough up something red. Was I drinking kool-aid? Did I eat strawberry sherbet? I look over it and realize its blood. Thats the only warning sign I need. I am finito..done. Honestly I'm going to try and never touch one....its going to be hard but I think I can do it. Its all about the willpower! I would also like to quit drinking but that will NEVER happen. I need something positive in my life.

This might be one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. Where did they get this monkey? From the Planet of the Apes?! This is amazing, he acts way too human, you can even see the pain on his face as he leaves one behind. You have to love the Japanese...Oh heres a quick racist joke I just thought of....this is a video of Michael Vick walking his pitbulls. Its so nice I had to post it thrice.

This is unintentional comedy gold!

Sons of 1984 - Breakthrough

Heres the new video made by me and my squad... Pit Stop Productions. The picture quality diminished when it was transfered to youtube. If you watch it on DVD it looks a thousand times better.

Making a Film pt.7

Mayhem....So everything goes smooth and we finish the music video, and I'm very proud of it. I should've known things were going too well. The first sign was when the DVD burner failed. So I burnt a data disc and hoped in my car to Long Island to deliver it to be put on youtube. The whole Northern State was closed down so I had to jump on the LIE, then the turn I was suppose to make, the whole street was shut down due to an accident. Im on the phone trying to find a new route when a cop angrily yells, "Get the hell off the phone!" I don't like people yelling at me, especially when I'm talking and I snapped. I yelled back, "Maybe I wouldn't have to be on the phone finding out where the hell I'm going if you didn't shut down the street!" They didn't like this and made me pull over and gave me a ticket for being on the cellphone. How much? One hundred and fifty freakin' dollars! Jesus! So I finally make it my location and guess what...the video doesn't work. A hundred and fifty dollar trip for nothing! So now we are on our final day to submit this thing and the problem lies not without editing, but figuring out this technologicly thing they call computers. Cross your fingers for us.

Making a Film pt.6

Oh, how I love deadlines...The video is just about done, but now I want to polish it and have that summa-bitch shinning. The problem is the last day to enter the video into the contest is tommorrow at the 17...and my editing partner gets home from work at 10 PM. Sooo...we have to do crazy editing all nite, get it perfect, and then I got to drive out to Long Island with the final DVD and upload it to Youtube. AWESOME! Anyway I'll have the video posted on here tommorrow. My nipples are getting hard just thinking about it. I already did some more editing on it, and I'm getting very happy with it. I think people will like it, at least I hope so. Rite now I'm working on getting a logo for our company to throw on the front of the video.

Something I've noticed. This really irks me when white boys do this. How come when some white boys get into beef, they constantly start saying the word "nigga" like it makes them harder or something. Number one no white person should be saying "nigga". The whites are just jealous that the blacks have a word we can't say. What do we want to take everything away from them? Let them have it...they never got their 40 acres and a mule, they can at least have "nigga". So I'm making a statement right here, any white person saying "nigga" is a douchebag, and black people who hang out with whites and allow them to say this with them are even dumber. I'm not racist cause I hate all the races equally...sometimes the white devils make me angry, sometimes the Spanish, and sometimes the blacks, and a lot of times the Indians...and I aint talking about the cool Indians, that wear facepaint and feathers, cause they have never made me angry.

End of Summer blues...

This is probly the lamest part of summer. Your just about ready for reality and school, but you want to do one more crazy thing to end with a bang. The past two days I have become a lazy beast of sleep. And some asshole mechanic fucked up my car so I can't even drive around anywhere. I haven't even really felt like doing anything much tho. I haven't even been following the news or shaving or anything. These past two days I have become a bum. I guess you could say I'm in a funk. Wednesday I got to get back to work on the music video, and Thursday I'll have it here ON THIS VERY BLOG! THIS THURSDAY THE PREMIERE OF PIT STOP PRODUCTIONS FIRST MUSIC VIDEO! Mark your calenders Beatrices. You should be excited.

Today was the roast of Flava Flav. It was better then I thought with them really ripping into him. Here are some of the best lines:

- "Chris Benoit is a better father then you"

- "Flava is responsible for more homeless black children then Hurricane Katrina"

- "Why do you wear a clock, you haven't had anywhere to be in 13 years"

- "They call it flavor of love...I didn't know syphliss had a flavor"

- "Flava set Vikings back 100 years"

I liked it a lot. They also really ripped into Carrott Top. I don't think one person on earth likes Carrott Top, he's like the white version of Carlos Mencia.

Making a Film pt.5

Editing sucks. Especially when you got a 1 day deadline and a pain in the ass "rap superstar" busting your balls, and to top it all off, you still don't even have the god damn finished song yet. Rite now things aren't looking great. We have the footage, the equipment, just not the time. We can get something out there no problem, but I want the best we can do. I just watched the whole 2 hours of footage jotting down notes. Some shots looked better in person, while a few just put my jaw to the floor. Oh another thing...one of my favorite shots, my cameraman forgot to hit record and we lost it. I noticed it but didn't get on his balls about it. We can't be fighting between us in a time where we are locked inside a tiny room editing. I heard a story that Scorsese used to edit with his wife. One time he got so angry he threw a typewriter at her and came within inches of killing her. That is editing my friends.

Making a Film pt.4

Controversy with the music video. The group went back into the studio today with two singers and the famed DJ Chaci (DJChaci.com). Chaci added some scratching to the record, which basically I think kicks ass. The singing however...when I first heard it, I thought it sounded like some cats being skinned alive in the alleyway. Maybe I was a little harsh, but I knew deep down it wasn't rite. So I got on the phone rite away and the artist's agreed with me. Regretfully, one of the singers is getting cut out of the song....Hey, thats the breaks kid. Overall tho, I'm happy with the improvements. Some more funny stuff about the song...The second rapper, "Gatsby", dropped "shit" in the sing. "Shit" is a big no-no on on youtube! So that is being turned into "ish" now. Now for some more controversy. Gatsby also says the line, "Shove It!" The controversy is that it sounds exactly like "Fuck It!" I just hope that no one realizes the song says "Paul is dead!" when played backwards. I'm off to go edit this bad boy now.

Making a Film pt.3

Ok, so we just shot the music video the whole day today. From 10:30 AM to about 7:30 PM. It was a grueling shoot with the sun beating down on us, and we used all exterior locations. The video might be a little random, but its not about the concept, its more about cool looking shots and giving the viewer a feel of New York. The way I would describe the video is the "Suburbs meets the Hood". You have 2 Suburban Long Island boys, with their fancy cars and clothes, coming to my neck of the woods, which would be the ghetto of course. So vibrant colors and clothes and cars, splashed up against graffiti walls, and shady looking blocks. Its a clash of cultures, but I feel it works. I was very happy with the shoot overall. We got some really cool looking shots, but I haven't been able to look them over yet, thats for tomorrow. Hopefully all turns out well.

Making a Film pt.2

Well we got a little sidetracked. Me and two members of my team (Pit Stop Enterprises) are actually shooting a music video tommorrow for the "Sons of 1984", two white rappers named Gatsby and AD. This video will be entered into a youtube contest judged by 50 Cent and Common. The winner gets to record a single with G-Unit records and $10,000. Now how do I feel about this? Well since Eminem is non existent now a days, I think there is definetly a market for a white rapper. The thing is I'm not going to present them as gangsta in this video, cause they're not, they're two white boys from Long Island. 50 Cent....whatever, that style of rap is going out of style anyways, that overly gangsta stuff. And I also feel the streets are getting sick of 50 and G-Unit. The problem with them is overexposure. 50 is in movies, sneakers, Vitamin Water, Video games, and clothing...its a little overkill. However, I do like Common a lot. He is a "concious" rapper, who actually says things in his rhymes and shys away from gangster lyrics. He is also a really artsy dude. I'm not really expecting to win this contest, considering the fact that we were told about this contest like 5 days ago and the finished product is due August 17. Im sure there will be a lot of really well done entrys, but either way people will get to be exposed to their music and to our filming abilities. This is a warm-up for us until we film "Found", but all in all in should be good. I'll update about the shoot tommorrow.

America has officially died.

Everyone knew it was coming..it was just a matter of when. Just like the Roman Empire, we too have fell from grace. Why, you ask? Because today is the release date of this...

A movie that tells the young girls of today to be superficial, egotistical, and basically be little slut Paris Hilton clones. Its because of shit like this that people like me and R.Kelly get in trouble. I would bang each girl in that poster, but each one is only 13, cause they are "Bratz". They don't even spell their fucking name with a "s" because they are so cool. This film should be called, "MySpace: The Movie". In a review I read about this movie, the reviewer described watching it as, "Bratz is like being raped by MySpace".

8.2.07

Those sneakers basically just kicked my ass. Those are the Nike SB Freddy Kreugers, coming out in November/October. I don't know if its just me, but those are really kick ass to me, even if they weren't for Freddy. As sick as it may sound, Freddy was like a role model to me as a kid. I thought he was the bee's knees. It wasn't the fact that he was killing everybody but rather due to the fact that he had a smart ass remark no matter what the situation. A man falls 50 feet with a noose around his neck hanging himself to death and Freddy would turn to him and say, "Hows it hanging Bill". Thats why hes the fucking man, and a role model to children everywhere. If I remeber correctly, in the first "Nightmare on Elm Street" he was a child molesster. I think this was downplayed when he started becoming the hero of his films. Every town has an Elm Street!
