Heard 'Em Say - Kanye West

2010 is over (give or take two weeks). My final video blog for the end of the beginning of the decade. 2010 put into a quick perspective.

I Get Crazy - Nicki Minaj

Gone in September - Mike Posner

So I'm still working on switching over to Wordpress in the meantime this is still my blogging home.
(sidenote: Check out my test post on Wordpress featuring Crown Nation). The video blog itself is actually really short, the rest is all Mike Posner footage I've had just sitting on my hard drive and never did anything with. Also included is a word of advice to college freshmen (and upperclassmen who've missed the memo).  Happy Monday!

*More Posner at the end, it's seriously about five minutes total of clips that I have. #shrug #harddrivehoarder.

Little Boys, Dangerous Toys - Cameo

Well, I'm going on another blogger hiatus. I know, I know I've already been struggling trying to keep up with posts. But I'm sure once the fruit of my labor (aka when the story I'm working on runs, you'll understand why I'm cooling it on the blogger tip). Naturally I can't leave you all empty. Some other places to check out are Clic University, Whutupdoe, Cliff Skighwalker, Do the Write Thing (#Word to Amy, Women in hip-hop rock, yo) and any and everything in my blog roll.

The last thing I'm posting is this video from Bei Maejor.

I was stupid impressed. One thing my mom always told me was there is music in everything, and Bei Maejor shows how true that is by making a beat out of children's play things. Obnoxious right? But oh so ill. Check it out:

*BTW the picture is upside on purpose. His project The Upside Down Project should be dropping pretty soon.


With that said. I'll see you all in August. #Ciao

What a Feeling - Ro Spit

Friday night at St. Andrew's (#word to Bizarre) Ro Spit and Monica Blaire along with one big band took the stage for the Renaissance State of Mind Experience. Here's my recap along with footage from the show and literally a one second clip looped five times of Ro Spit jitting, lol. It was fun, should've been there.

Fall In Love - Slum Village

Last week was totally awesome and here's my thoughts on the Bullfrog incident (including an apology to A. Peezie of The Freshmen) and the #fantastic and #epic show at St. Andrews starring Jay Electronica, Slum Village, 5 ELA, Guilty Simpson, Ro Spit and One Be Lo hosted by my homie Miz Korona and House Shoes was the official DJ for the event (#classic) and some show clips ... well SV clips, lol.

In The Cut - Wiz Khalifa

So here's a little recap on Schoolz Out presented by Finally Famous. I just realized I cut the part out about Wiz's performance but all I said was I don't listen to him (like at all) but his performance of "Kid Frankie" and "Good Dank" were definitely dope. His energy was crazy and I didn't leave the Majestic hating him, at all. Enough chatter peep my thoughts on the show, some (horribly shot) show footage and my thoughts on people's after-thoughts.

Lock It Down - Slum Village

About to jump back in full throttle. Here's the happening's for June 2010... #LockItDown

Over - Drake

First official video blog of summer 2010. Things I hate: Leaks and Drake.

Anniversary - Toni! Tony! Toné!

Today 'Tha 'A' Side' officially turns one, just had to say. Thanks. This is also my 400th post!

Shakin' It For Daddy - Robin Thicke

Latest Video Blog: Apparently the Shake Weight IS real, Freshman Clothing has the dopest business cards and peep whose mixtape I got while there. I also speak on Twitter Rape, who I "rep" and being a groupie.

Movie - Chip Tha Ripper

DISCLAIMER: Look, I'm saying the same thing now, that I said when I did the Juan/Fli Pelican series, I'm a journalist, I try to look at both sides even if one may seem completely in the wrong and that's what I tried to do with this video. Everything is my own opinion plus stuff I noticed, observed, and heard. But, enough chatter ... just watch.

The Moment - Young Scolla

USR the clique.

I think I start every post about them with that phrase, it's so lame (but whatever). The talented gents have started doing webisodes of their lives during different events, trips and whatever other mayhem may ensue. They released the pilot episode tonight entitled: 'The ATLiens,' which documents Young Scolla, K-Bunz, Keas, Jay-Cro and Fab 5 Ent. as they travel to the Detroit of the South for a show with the Cool Kids. Check it out.

Tell Me - Slum Village

Fact: I love Slum Village. (Yes I am going to start every post I do on them with that phrase.) I'm all caught up on T3 and eLZhi's Da Villa Chronicles, just in time for their third installment. In this webisode, they speak on Baatin, why he left and why he came back.

Things I've Been Through - Jadakiss

Last video blog of 2009: gives a somewhat explanation of my twisted thought process to my Top 25, some things I learned and what I predict for 2010.

*Oh and the song is "Glow" by eLZhi.

Boomerang Slang - eLZhi

*TOTALLY effed up by saying SV was releasing Villa Manifesto in March, I was reading the thing on iTunes and wasn't paying attention. Other than that...enjoy :-)

The Crowd - eLZhi

Respect My Conglomerate - Busta Rhymes

*ignore my shirt/hair -- right before I did it, lol
