This and That From Sneakers to Hats
A glaring omission from my Grammy play-by-play: Andre's dubious choice to rock a Native American theme for his performance, which is now coming under scrutiny.
----------
Whoa, Suicide Girls added a pretty snazzy news section, and has our site atop their list of "news links" (lower right). I better get on the job around here.
----------
The Village Voice's Annual Pazz and Jop poll hit the web tonite, but you can probably skip right to O-Dub's breakdown of it and get everything you need. The most painful quote he singled out:
The most interesting figures in hip-hop for me over the past two
years have been the Streets, Northern State, Dizzee Rascal, Bubba
Sparxxx, and Slug. Not an African-American among them. Can it be that
each artist's otherness relative to hip-hop proper is bringing new
styles, new impulses, and new concerns to a genre that's 25 years old?-CHRIS HERRINGTON
Um, actually that probably tells us a lot more about you than it does about hip-hop, Chris.. and I'll just leave it at that.
----------
I hope I have time to finish S/FJ's magnum opus on the Neptunes and Timbaland before the NY Times makes it pay-only content.
----------
They are making an Oceans Twelve?
----------
Looks like his fellow Republicans are abandoning Bush in droves.. first National Review trashes his performance on "Meet the Press" (via Calpundit, also doing the best coverage anywhere on the Bush AWOL story), and now Bill O'Reilly apologizes for telling viewers to believe Bush's WMD stories (via americanblack). Seriously, people, we can beat this guy.
----------
Why is the (deservedly) revered Crooked Timber blog ripping off posts that I made six weeks ago? Oh well, the more props Toussaint L'Ouverture gets, the better.
----------
L.A. Reid takes over at Def Jam. Was Outkast's oath of fealty to him at the Grammys a hint that they may ultimately follow him there? More importantly, could this mean a comeback for the Highland Place Mobsters?
----------
Bay Area Brethren: Prince is playing The Fillmore in San Francisco on
Saturday, February 14th, according to his website.
----------
And finally, the mighty mighty Ego Trip Crew with the scoop on their upcoming VH1 show, TV Race Riot.
(My thoughts are with the people of Haiti)

I knew that was going to happen. (outkast) cbs fucked up as did andre3000.

i'm surprised it took this long for someone to express outrage at that performance. i was offended by that shade of green. holy st patrick's day gradeschool celebration color palette!
and they're filming scenes from oceans 12 in my boss' hometown of woodstock, ill. he keeps singing aroung the office "julia's coming! julia's coming!"

I too thought the outfit was unusual. I wouldn't put anything past Hollywood and the messages they give out.

My first thought upon seeing that was performance was, "Damn, if I were a skull scalping, woo-woo puffing, lime green wearing, chicken head, scantily clad dancer, beamed down from a prototypical cliched space ship, I'd be furious right now!"
Re: The 2003 Pop and Jazz Poll-- Banished to the corner cyphas amidst the glowing malt liquor placards and to the suburban bassments, that whoreson, know affectionately the world over as "that crap", now wallows at the dinner table with its perennially embraced siblings in music. Cheers, you hip hop bastards. You done finally come up now, boy.
As far as L.A. Reid, he need to sit his ass down. How you let yourself get canned the way he did. He should own Arista. Eff Clive Davis. But hey, a pigs gotta eat its garbage so Def Jam should look forward to running up some major studio time. With Reid at the helm can we expect to see Ghostface, decked in two-tone Wallabees, reciting an acceptance speech, scribbled on a coctail napkin. "I'd like to thank Theodore Unit."

I keep feeling torn over whether there's actually a significant Republican defection from Bush or just a few well-publicized cases. I really, really, really hope its the former.
The news about Ego Trip having a VH1 show just made my day about ten times over.

Highland Place Mobsters were very underated...'Dirt Road White Girl' is a classic...

Jay, I think the link for the Suicide Girls bit is faulty. I clicked it and got the Pazz & Jop Voice page again.

What's happening in Haiti is heartbreaking.
I've read that after Haiti won its independence, and after the Napoleonic wars were over, France said if you don't give us a million bucks (or francs?) a year, we'll come down on you with all our might. So Haiti's first years were spent paying this ransom to France, instead of getting their own country together. Has their ever been any talk of France repaying this shameful blood money, with interest?

Holeee ish on that Village Voice quote. I must admit I went through my Aesop infatuation, but this dude's writing for the Voice? Amazing.

Do I need a lemon law attorney? The answer depends upon which State you Purchased or Registered your car in. In some States and with proper documentation, you simply file a Complaint. In other States, you will need to hire a lemon law attorney. Only about half of the States allow you to recover lemon law attorney fees. If your Attorney sues under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, you will be awarded lemon law fees if you win. Note that an attorney's fee is based upon actual time expended rather than being tied to any percentage of the recovery. Arbitration is designed to be a quick and cost-free method to resolve lemon law disputes. The process and procedures are very informal. Many consumers successfully present their cases without the assistance of a lemon law attorney. Some consumers may feel nervous in unusual circumstances, or may have some difficulty in communicating. These consumers may benefit from the assistance of a lemon law. Alabama Lemon Law, Alaska Lemon Law, Arizona Lemon Law, Arkansas Lemon Law, California Lemon Law, Colorado Lemon Law, Connecticut Lemon Law, Delaware Lemon Law, Florida Lemon Law, Georgia Lemon Law, Hawaii Lemon Law, Idaho Lemon Law, Illinois Lemon Law, Indiana Lemon Law, Iowa Lemon Law, Kansas Lemon Law, Kentucky Lemon Law, Louisiana Lemon Law, Maine Lemon Law, Maryland Lemon Law, Massachusetts Lemon Law, Michigan Lemon Law, Minnesota Lemon Law, Mississippi Lemon Law, Missouri Lemon Law, Montana Lemon Law, Nebraska Lemon Law, Nevada Lemon Law, New Hampshire Lemon Law, New Jersey Lemon Law, New Mexico Lemon Law, New York Lemon Law, North Carolina Lemon Law, North Dakota Lemon Law, Ohio Lemon Law, Oklahoma Lemon Law, Oregon Lemon Law, Pennsylvania Lemon Law, Rhode Island Lemon Law, South Carolina Lemon Law, South Dakota Lemon Law, Tennessee Lemon Law, Texas Lemon Law, Utah Lemon Law, Vermont Lemon Law, Virginia Lemon Law, Washington Lemon Law, West Virginia Lemon Law, Wisconsin Lemon Law, Wyoming Lemon Law

phentermine Almost every party grasps that it is in the interest of its own self-preservation that the opposing party should not decay in strength; the same is true of grand politics. A new creation, the new Reich for instance, has more need of enemies that friends: only in opposition does it feel itself necessary, only in opposition does it become necessary....
