Wow....to many "bloggers" [ I hate that term] like myself, Bryon Crawford, is the man to be. But after watching this recent video, this nerd needs to watch what he's saying.

HUSTLER'S AMBITION

2007-01-02T22:15:00.000-05:00

Mr. "Interscope Jackson" will launch his own G-Unit Books Imprint this Thursday at Borders Books in Columbus Circle (Manhattan, NYC) Considering the fact that this venue is less than a block away from my job, I just might stop by and pay him a visit to enrage the 50 Cent detractors that visit this beautiful thing here we call, Nonfixfantasies.com. What you know about that?

For those of you that missed the execution of Saddam Hussein...here it is.... I never thought that they would have the audacity to murder the man...but I guess I was wrong...considering the foulplay.

Now, hip-hop should think about murdering this man's career. After all the bullsh*t he's been involved in the past year..he doesn't deserve to be on anymore..for real....I don't know the man, but dude appears to be a piece of garbage. I'm not a judge, but call a spade a spade when I see one. "We need a board to approve the moves that some of these "rappers" are making"...."The sh*t is disgusting"

Until Next Time.....

ON MY NEW YEAR SH*T

2007-01-01T16:20:00.000-05:00

It's 2007 and I'm attempting to rejuvenate my lackluster blog. The numbers on the site are up and down. Apparently, "hip-hop journalism" has detracted from the thing I loved the most....blogging and ranting about the bullsh*t that goes on in politics, hip-hop, and this fu*ked up world of ours. It's a new day. A new year. Let's try this again....

My man J.A.M.E.S has already mastered the art of distributing FREE material...apparently Talib Kweli and Madlib have caught on as well.

Speaking of J.A.M.E.S, peep the review of his critically acclaimed mixtape, Shameless Promotion Vol 1...

White people love Barack Obama, but how do "Black folk" feel about the presidential hopeful?

AllHipHop recaps the best of 06', however nothing compares to HipHopSite's Best Of List[whenever they post it]...HHNLive's is OK I guess...

The United States may have murdered Saddam, but I wonder if they ever found out his 'secrets'?

Then again, the U.S is curious as to why the Iraqis were in such a rush to EXECUTE Saddam...hmmmm.

I was always wondering what's so bad about permitting 50 Cent to represent the celebration of Kwanzaa?

R.I.P. JAMES BROWN

2006-12-25T04:29:00.000-05:00

James Brown, Godfather of Soul, dies at 73

STILL RIDIN' HIGH

2006-12-20T21:29:00.000-05:00

Posting might be inconsistent. I had the internet going nuts with the last post. Check another article by yours truly....

With over a decade of experience in the rap game, 8Ball and MJG are unlike most rappers. Despite their unique and original style, they have accomplished feats that most brand new artists would dream of - being fresh, consistent, and most important of all, maintaining relevancy. The rap game has changed greatly since 8Ball and MJG’s premier album, Comin’ Out Hard, debuted in 1993. The Dirty South runs hip-hop. Rap artists function as CEOs and manage multi-million dollar record labels. However, in the early 90s, many rappers didn’t know how to evade the pitfalls of signing bogus recording contracts and were perpetually “jerked” by labels. This is the era that 8Ball came from; nevertheless, 8Ball seems to have great foresight and has become adept at changing with the game.

As well as being featured on one of the biggest records of 2005, “Stay Fly”, 8Ball can add another great accomplishment to his resume, the launch of his own label, 8Ways Entertainment. As his counterpart, MJG, launches MJG Muzik, 8Ball has grandiose visions for his new company. 8Ball hopes to “have an artist on [his] label that could be the next Alicia Keys or Wu-Tang Clan.” Yo! Raps Magazine recently had the opportunity to sit down with 8Ball to discuss his upcoming film, what it’s like to work with Diddy, and why it took so long for the Dirty South to gain popularity. Life may be hard out here for a pimp, but 8Ball is still ridin’ high.

NAS CAME AND WENT QUICK [PAUSE]

2006-12-18T21:14:00.000-05:00

I've just received word that "Mr. Hip-Hop Is Dead", NAS, just concluded his "Secret" promotional concert[at Webster Hall in Manhattan]. Unfortunately, to the dismay of most knowledgeable fans, his show was a measly THIRTY MINUTES.....that doesn't sound like Hip-Hop is alive to me man...Maybe Mr. Jones is conserving his energy for this Friday's doubleheader concert at Times Square? Contrarily, maybe it was just another crummy Hot 97 event where the majority of the concertgoers have no idea what to expect and are satisfied with a subpar showing? Whatever the case may be, the outcome is very depressing and disappointing. Fans pay up to $30 for a show and are only entertained for half an hour? Hip-Hop Is Dead...Corporate Hip-Hop is Alive and running, it seems as if Nas proved his own point.

WHAT BLACK MEN THINK

PHONTE of LITTLE BROTHER

2006-12-05T11:35:00.000-05:00

Recently, I had the opportunity to speak with Phonte....enjoy another exclusive interview by yours truly.......

Is Little Brother considered backpack or conscious rap? Though it may be quite difficult to classify Little Brother’s style of music, the most outspoken member of the group, Phonte, describes their music in one word, “real”. Since the 2003 release of The Listening, the North Carolina natives, Little Brother (Phonte, Big Pooh, and 9th Wonder), have served as a refreshing, antithesis to the promotion of misogynistic, “minstrel rap music” that has flooded the hip-hop industry. In fact, Little Brother’s sophomore release The Minstrel Show, spoke directly to this stemming problem with insightful tracks designed to place the onus of creating self-respectable hip-hop music back upon the artists’.

It is impossible to shy away from the fact that Hip-Hop, as we know it, is on life support. Can we save this beautiful culture of ours? According to Phonte’s diagnosis, he is not so optimistic about Hip-Hop’s recovery. Phonte doesn’t seem to believe the devilish marketing of the generic, “cookie cutter” rappers will stop being promoted by careless, money- hungry record executives and corporate-run radio stations unless the masses put a stop to the greedy corporate machine. With that said, the logic behind his eloquent argument could not be anymore clearer, “If I could sh*t between two slices of bread and sell it to you as a hamburger, why would I actually cook you a hamburger?”

Recently, Phonte sat down with Yo! Raps Magazine to discuss why Little Brother’s next album, The Getback will feature producers other than 9th Wonder, the transition from being independent to signing with a major label [Atlantic Records], and why Little Brother doesn’t get spins on mainstream radio. Be very afraid and pay very close attention. The new millennium minstrel show has been unleashed upon the Hip-Hop Community. It just might be up to Little Brother to become the driving force that puts an end to the nonsense we have been calling “Hip-Hop”.

IT'S GANGSTA GRILLZ YOU BASTARDS!

2006-11-20T08:35:00.001-05:00

Nonfictional Fantasies had the opportunity to interview DJ Drama.(T.I's official DJ + Gangsta Grillz Mixtape Orginator + Aphilliates Fouder, etc) Once again, another exclusive article written by yours truly....enjoy...

The standard textbook definition of affiliation is the act of consorting with or joining together with others. As the founder of the all-star DJ team, The Aphilliates (DJ Sense, DJ Don Cannon, DJ Jaycee, DJ Ox, and DJ Jamad), DJ Drama’s proven ability to thrive off of relationships has helped him to garner exponential success in the hip-hop industry. DJ Drama is very much aware of this penchant for comradery and believes that these “relationships are definitely the key to a lot of [his] success.”

DJ Drama (also known as Mr. Thanksgiving) has much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving holiday. In addition to being T.I’s official tour DJ, Drama recently launched Aphilliates Music Group and will soon release a Gangsta Grillz LP this year. Though things seem to be on the up and up, with a name like Drama, it is no surprise that the critically acclaimed DJ has encountered his fair share of drama this year. Read on as DJ Drama sits down with Yo! Raps to discuss his take on shots from DJ Kayslay, his upcoming Gangsta Grillz LP, and why he will reign supreme among hip-hop DJs for years to come. It’s Gangsta Grillz you bastards, the IPod King has arrived, stand up and pay attention! [Continue post here.]

OK..it's one thing to have financial woes, but I never imagined I'd see the day Mike Tyson was tricking off....whoa

Nas' album may be the best one he's had in a while. Nas - Where Are They Now (radio rip)

Additionally, this Fabolous - Kanye track Like This is pretty catchy considering the fact I usually can't stand F-A-B etc.....

In closing, the kid J.A.M.E.S has gone global...did I ever mention the fact that he speaks German too..

Just some random sh*t for a Sunday......

J.A.M.E.S + HIPANDPOP.COM !

2006-11-15T16:34:00.000-05:00

Our man J.A.M.E.S has just been given ANOTHER feature...this time he graces the front page of HipandPop....Read the commentary believe and be sure to check the rest of the feature on HipandPop !

J.A.M.E.S. Watts. This New York rapper is a musician/lyricist who touches on the various topics of life…Unlike most MC’s, he chooses to rap about the struggles of life, death, relationships and finer things in life rather than saturate the industry with lyrics about sex, drugs, hoes & clothes….When I listened to “Traces of Hope”, I realized that this fellow was not your average rapper… When he spits you can see that he makes his music and that his music makes him…Coming from a racially mixed background, J.A.M.E.S. Watts appears to be a taste of what is genuinely missing in the industry…He’s an example of trueness to self and reality…He has been and continues to be approached by various record labels such as Def Jam, SRC/Universal and Interscope…When I landed on this fellow’s page, I knew I had to post him.

The internet version of the man I met this week[I really did] might just be fake.

KINGDOM CAME

2006-11-13T13:29:00.000-05:00

Last night, I heard the entire [good looks J.A.M.E.S]Jay-Z LP, Kingdom Come and was pretty satisfied. I don't want to get sued, but listen to these tracks anyway. What's the point of buying albums if they leak weeks before the release date?

Do U Wanna Ride - Jay-Z ft. John Legend [produced by Kanye]

Beach Chair - Jay-Z ft. Chris Martin

Haven't had the chance to find CD quality audio, but this Nas ft. Jay-Z track Black Republican is BANANAS. [what a way to finish the 4th quarter]

Fidel Castro will die in 18 months.

You know things are getting real when college professors win the right to blaze WEED in their office.

The Democrats may indeed Bring The Troops Home from Iraq...which I believe is wishful thinking...

Recently, embattled Jacob the Jeweler demands his moula from Scarface.

Also had the opportunity to see Method Man, Immortal Technique, Masta Killa, Inspectah Deck and others tear down the Nokia Theater in NYC Saturday Night. I have a newfound respect for Method Man...dude was crowdsurfing and WALKED over the crowd....literally. Based upon Method Man's amazing performance of his lengthy catalog of hits[i.e Bring The Pain, Method Man, Triumph, What the Bloodclot, Poisonous Darts, et al]....maybe he should get more respect as a veteran of the Hip-Hop community? Besides Belly, maybe it was poor choices in selecting slapstick movie roles that took away from how he is perceived. In closing, MarlonBando knew the words to every single Wu-Tang song performed that night....that's what I call a true WU fanatic!

KISS YOUR ASS GOODBYE

Why can't we just use Hip-Hop to spread the Christian message? [laughs]

Then again.....maybe Kanye Punk'd us all......

Being a sex offender is bad enough,but when the legal system requires you to where a Sex Offender T-shirt...that's something else.

Jay-Z is in the Financial Times.

SOUL SURVIVOR

2006-11-05T19:27:00.000-05:00

Posts have been a bit shaky........but, I had the opportunity to catch up with Sadat X before his unfortunate incarceration last month.....read on to hear his views regarding the current state of hip-hop, Fat Joe + Big Pun in the 80s, and much more. Enjoy another classic hip-hop article by yours truly........

When hip-hop connoisseurs speak on the culture, it is impossible to forgo mentioning veteran emcee Sadat X. With over two decades in the rap game, the legendary Brand Nubian member continues to maintain relevancy among hip-hop fans across the globe. Unlike his peers, Sadat X exemplifies a duality that most rappers lack; the ability to advocate social upliftment for the oppressed while maintaining allegiance to the streets of New York.

Unfortunately, the latter has the rapper facing incarceration for illegal gun possession. Rather than dwell on his most recent predicament, Sadat X has been busy recording his new LP, Black October. His new solo effort is comprised of introspective tracks that touch upon Sadat's tribulations, in addition to more positive songs that document the grind of everyday life in New York City.

Extra early review of The Game's forthcoming LP, The Doctor's Advocate.[ do I smell sophomore jinx....]

50 Cent + Deniro = New Orleans aka 50 Cent playing 5-0.....not a good loof for the team....

Also, either John Kerry is a real idiot or was paid a gazillion $$$ to give the G.O.P more ammunition against the Dems less than one week before the midterm elections...some one needs to tell him to Shut The F*ck Up!.

Is it just me.....or isn't Method Man really pissed that his boss was given the cover of XXL and the subheading, Presidential MC. [title track off of Mr. Meth's new album that Def Jam failed to push because Hov was readying his return to the limelight.......]

FRESH OUT THE POT

2006-10-30T13:23:00.000-05:00

The posts have been somewhat suspect, however I leave you with a new article by yours truly.....more updates to come......

The second coming of the Dirty South is here. Getty Boy is representing the dope boys and street hustlers of the Carolinas while aiming to make an indelible imprint in the rap game. His ability to intertwine lyricism within his epic Trap tales makes Getty Boy one to watch for. As his most recent mixtape collaboration with DJ Whoo Kid and Incognito, “Fresh Out the Pot Vol. 1”, continues to gain critical acclaim on the mixtape circuit, Getty continues to hustle hard. As a matter of fact, that same hustle helped him to ink a deal with Hustle/Asylum records. Read on as Getty Boy explains the difference between him and Petey Pablo, his views on New York hip-hop, and much more.

To all Nonfictional Fantasies readers and supporters...I've added a new dimension to my blogging....Journalism...

This article is presented by none other than yours truly....normally Tech N9ne wouldn't be my personal cup of tea, but I wrote it...read it.

Eclectic. Abnormal. Unique. Original. These are but few words that exemplify the unusual character of Mid-West rapper, Tech N9ne. As the hip-hop industry continues to be flooded with “cookie cutter” rappers that lack originality, Tech N9ne’s innovative rhyme style ensures that no one will ever be able to emulate his image. With that said, these same characteristics have helped the underground rapper gain worldwide notoriety. Though it may sound like an oxymoron, the “well known – underground” emcee has sold over half a million albums independently. However, how does one describe Tech N9ne’s music? The Kansas City native proclaims his music to be, “Hip-Hop and Hardcore Rap [mixed] with Rock energy!” Though Tech N9ne has not had an album since the 2002 release of Absolute Power, his fan base has remained loyal and is anticipating his soon to be released LP, Everready….The Religion. Has Tech N9ne’s music been known to incite riots? Sure. Has Tech N9ne recorded songs with Eminem, E-40, RZA, and Krs-One? Yes sir. Will Tech N9ne ever compromise his integrity to meet conventional industry standards? Never. Lock and load! Tech N9ne has entered the building and he is here to stay.

DO YOUR CHAIN HANG LOW?

2006-10-19T14:15:00.000-04:00

Jibbs' newfound success furthers the notion that record execs will do anything to dumb down the masses.[ The Brown ones especially.....neo-instituitional racism? [with the industry being the instiution.]

After "Crocodile Hunter", Steve Irwin's death, I guess anybody can get it.

New joint from 50 Cent, "Puppy Love"....no comment....

Rappers talk about spraying the K, but in Iraq the U.S sprays a quarter billion shots a day!

Black baby, White celebrity....do I smell a new Hollywood trend?

SHAMELESS PROMOTION

2006-10-18T14:18:00.000-04:00

It's common knowledge that Dirty Sanchez and Hugh Heffner are smutpeddlers, but Clinque? I guess Bob Herbert is on to something.....

My man has had this for a minute, but the fourth season of The Wire is for sale on "the block".

The Game might have been on to something as well....Lloyd Banks = 143 K albums sold = Wood... G-Unit over?

After dropping his second nuclear bomb, dictator Kim Jong- Il is back in the building.

Wesley Snipes might see some federal time, "if you get hit with ten you damn near do nine." - 50 Cent

Proof that record labels profit off of the bootleggers.

In closing, the original connoisseur of Shameless Promotion .....

DDDDDDD...DAMN!

2006-10-17T13:02:00.000-04:00

Justin's Restaurant, owned by hip hop entrepreneur Puffy Combs, at 31 West 21st Street in NYC, is the latest scene of hip hop related drama and violence.Hip hop artist Fabolous, aka 28 year old John Jackson, was shot following a fight that ended down the street from Justin’s early this morning.

SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT VIDEO

2006-10-16T18:41:00.000-04:00

Once again, Jay-Z illustrates how he's richer than EVERYBODY with a chic, stylish, European swagger...cool I guess. [Apologies for the crappy quality]

CAPO STATUS

2006-10-16T12:32:00.000-04:00

New Mobb Deep track, Look Out feat 50 Cent, but considering Lloyd Banks' nonexistent promotion, The Unit just might be declining.

The frustrating reality of SWB.....Shopping While Black...

Jim Jones reality show?...as if a Day In The Life wasn't enough...this is a show I would watch.

Now St. Lunatic member, Ali, knows the meaning of getting 'Hot in Here'.

It's true......Jay-Z is Superman.

The reason why military officers don't blog. [They're being watched...]

People still can't get over the fact that Ms. Jolie will be playing a Black woman in an upcoming film...the outrage! [she's got Black babies...sh*t]

16% of Americans believe the Bush Administration is telling the truth about 9/11 while 53% say Bush is definitely hiding something.

GOD DAMN AFRICAN BOOTLEGGERS!

2006-10-13T17:46:00.000-04:00

Hov on African World Tour, "I bet Jay never thought he'd go to Angola?"

You can take this Jay-Z development with a grain of salt [considering the source] but it's possible.

NAS IS COMING

2006-10-12T12:43:00.000-04:00

Nas is coming.....GodSon discusses signing to Def Jam along and its drawbacks.

Did Lloyd Banks' album even come out? G-Unit just might be a fledgling entity. Maybe? Maybe Not.

When everyone leaves the courthouse, why not just walk around naked?

655, 500 Iraqis dead since the beginning of the war? Some people beg to differ.

Rapper .vs. Hustler. The resurrection of Hov and Puff.

Y'ALL SHOULD ALL GET LYNCHED

2006-10-11T21:31:00.000-04:00

I haven't seen anything like this in a while..wow...this video is not safe for work...Sambos and Uncle Toms BEWARE.

THE KINGDOM COMETH

2006-10-11T12:56:00.000-04:00

This new Hov joint, Kingdom Come, is bananas...fu*k what he's saying..this Just Blaze beat is fire!

But, while we're at it, Hov, stay the f*ck out of Asia..only I can go there.

This Rep. Foley fiasco gets better and better....

I'm out on bail.

Diddy .vs. Youtube groupies. [ you might get Ethered by the mogul.]

It just might really, really be a wrap for the Republican Party...at least for now.

STOP BEING GREEDY

2006-10-10T14:17:00.000-04:00

DMX still can't drive for sh*t.

Nas steps up his "producer game" on the Hip Hop Is Dead LP.

Former Pacer, Reggie Miller, tells the thugged out Pacers to stop keeping it so gangsta.

Things are still looking critical for Cassidy.

Teenagers can't afford gas these days, so if you can't afford it, just take it.

Not to say N. Korea is right, but isn't it a bit hypocritical for the U.S to condemn their Nuke policy considering this.

The definition of Crippin' .

These damn teachers need to stop banging their students.

NOT SYNONYMOUS WITH ANONYMOUS

2006-10-09T18:51:00.000-04:00

For, the record the differences between me and fake ass anonymous posters are:

1. I have IP addresses and know who you are.
2. Hop Off internet Stan.

"I could be the king of New York right now if I wanted to be. Who is it, Jay-Z and 50, that’s it? Them my lil’ homeboys. If you wanna keep it real, I could be the King of mothaf**kin’ New York and mash on n***as"... Snoop is definitely out of his mind...

H-A-V-O-C is getting his Internet D-A-T-I-N-G on....so much for groupies.

You must be a fu*ked up child when your parents try to UNADOPT you.

Washington Post wants to know when niggaz will stop using the infamous N-word.

Jadakiss is still locked up, then again "WHY" do we give a sh*t about these rappers.

These little kids need to take a chill pill...."13 year old fires AK-47 in MO classroom." Maybe this Congressman is on to something.

My own "Garden State" might be the integral component that determines the future of our "great" country. Who would've known?

POP OFF

2006-10-06T17:06:00.000-04:00

Why are the Indiana Pacers so goddamn gangsta? As if brawling with "fans" wasn't enough.

THE PROBLEM

2006-10-05T12:55:00.000-04:00

Get well soon Cassidy.

Mos Def sounding like Mos Def - Undeniable[ off of the True Magic LP, due 12/5]

It looks as though House Speaker Dennis Hastert will be resigning in the immediate future.

Lupe Fiasco talks about his album sales with Status Ain't Hood.....

I am so excited to be working in the U.S school system !

GAME THEORY

2006-10-04T13:00:00.000-04:00

Something tells me that this isn't the "real" cover for The Game's upcoming LP, Doctor's Advocate[but I could be wrong....]

"He's on that ol' off the wall back to Africa shit....." Nas + Jay-Z to tour in the motherland.

With all the violence taking place in schools, learn more about the Denver teen that kills because he "thinks he is God.''

Right wing Christians have identified the guilty party in the "Foley page scandal" it's the gay people's fault....stupid.

It seems as if rappers have deserted Jacob the Jeweler and have opted to buy their bling elsewhere.

REFLECTION ETERNAL

2006-10-03T12:55:00.000-04:00

Scratch magazine's November issue seems promising.[Hi-Tek....please don't abandon Kweli...he needs you....desperately.]

Maybe Lupe Fiasco is an Islamic terrorist + he thinks Hov isn't in the game for the "love" of it.

Polls show the Democrats aren't that far from recapturing the Senate. [ do I hear impeachment?]

The Game is bipolar....not only does he backpedal and take shots at 50, but he goes after Pharrell too? ["Bathing Ape shoe niggaz/ I'm talking to you niggaz"]

In addition to being bipolar, The Game is also suicidal, or it's just pre-release album hype.

As sales continue to flourish for Bob Woodward's [scathing indictment of the Bush Administration], State of Denial...maybe Woodward should see if he's in denial as well.

THE SHIT'S DISGUSTING

2006-10-02T10:31:00.000-04:00

Rep. Mark Foley is one sickdude......goddamn Republicans.....

People have always called the G.O.P racists....murderers....but internet pedophiles?....WTF! [might be time for some new leadership..lol]

Nas' eight minute track with The Game to debut + One Blood remix w/ Lil' Wayne, Fat Joe, and Nas in the works.

Colin Powell was indeed FIRED by the Bush Administration.....

The first African American leader that I've ever seen endorse gay rights + MLK would favor said rights as well.

SpineMagazine's review straight up shitted all over Food & Liquor.

The Supreme Court rides for Tupac.

Nas abroad in the U.K commenting on the upcoming Nas + Jay-Z collaboration...

IT'S NOT FOXXY

2006-09-30T18:14:00.000-04:00

Freddie Foxx's new dis track aimed at Rakim[ in my opinion, it's pretty whack & 18 years too late...anticipating "The God's" reply....]

NO MORE DRAMA

2006-09-30T10:27:00.000-04:00

After reading the newest issue of XXL, I learned that The Game ended his beef with Murder Inc...

Plus, we know DMX ended his "beef" with Ja Rule, but 50 ending beef with The Source?

New 9th Wonder joint featuring Mighty Mos, Premier, et al.

I wonder what Lupe's real SoundScan numbers are.....

The more and more I work in the school system, in addition to watching The Wire last week, I'm learning to you have to watch your back.

THE WORLD IS 10% REALITY, 90% HYPE

2006-09-28T07:28:00.000-04:00

Poppa Paul Wall still makes gangsta grills.

DMX and Jah Rule sqaush BEEF. [I bet Jah wishes 50 would squash theirs as well.....]

Has Byron Crawford been vindicated after Lupe[supposely] falls [very] short.

However, Lupe and Atlantic dispute the 58,000 album sales figure. [Looks like they forgot to add Best Buy numbers?]

Apparently ''the good Doctor" won't be on The Doctor's Advocate....The Game said it himself...

IT'S AFTERMATH YOU BASTARDS

2006-09-27T19:22:00.000-04:00

Joell Ortiz definitely raised the bar with this joint, but[to me] he still sounds a bit like this guy....

580,000...no....58,000 in one week? Hip-Hop shitt*d on 'hip-hop's savior'...damn Lupe...Atlantic sucks....FNF Up?

Speaking of FNF...check out a new track byFNF affiliate Gemini...maybe he pick up where Lupe left off...

It's really sucked to be Royce 5'9 since about 2000, but now it really sucks to be Royce.

Freddie Foxx is REALLY bringing beef to "THE GOD''....that's some sh*t....

Hi-Tek ft. Talib Kweli and Ayak - Can We Go Back

Apologies for the lack of politics.......the juxtaposition of ignorance, redundancy, and depression has caused me to stray away for the day....

CONTROVERSY SELLS

2006-09-26T07:26:00.000-04:00

Another shitty post.......yeah I know, but I can't "work from home" like most "bloggers"...

Lupe the gangsta?

Then again some believe Food and Liquor is a album, controversy does sell.

More updates later......

PAUSE NO HOMO

2006-09-25T07:29:00.000-04:00

Strange past couple of days....I may have some surprises in the works....

Revamped Startrak site? [These dudes really are from the future..]

Chavez calls Bush "the Devil while developing better social programs within the United States....

Some call me a LUPE FIASCO enthusiast, but damn, this guy likes him a little bit too much....

BOOGIE MAN STRIKES BACK

2006-09-22T07:03:00.000-04:00

Mos Def is one of my most favorite artists of all time. As a matter of fact, I can be classified as the polar opposite of a Mos Def Hater. Nevertheless, I [think I] know what people want to hear. In an earlier post, I discussed the likelihood that Mos' new album, True Magic, would be another newfound Jack Johnson/Boogie Man production. However, it looks as if more proof has been unearthed to support this claim. With that said, preview these tracks from the upcoming LP, True Magic......you be the judge.

Undeniable

Sun, Moon, Stars

BEST OF BOTH WORLDS

2006-09-21T07:32:00.000-04:00

The Chronic 3000......Something to hold you over until Kingdom Come....and I guess Detox...

Apologies for the shaky posts lately.....teaching the youth and being a blog/hip-hop aficionado can be quite taxing....

The Game proves that he's the John Kerry of rap in this interview...but, here we have a little more straight talk.

Hugo Chavez = Gangsta[ not often world leaders travel to the U.S to call Mr. Bush the DEVIL...]

Then again, if you bite a PANDA....that's pretty gangsta as well...

Listening to Lupe's Food and Liquor and so far I'm not disappointed....

The Lessons of Stringer Bell.

Green Lantern gives the rundown of Hov's world tour.....

The "Real Deal" about poor high school youth enlisting in the U.S military....

SMARTEN UP NAS

2006-09-20T07:21:00.000-04:00

As Nas' album gets pushed back.....Hov shoots a new video one week out of retirement?

WE FLY HIGH

2006-09-19T07:19:00.000-04:00

Why this is the new NY anthem? I don't know, but...um.....BALLINN!

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad + Hugo Chavez = are perceived to be a deadly combination for the U.S.....

Lupe's Food + Liquor in stores today....very curious to see it's numbers.....

Youtube.....best to watch out....it might be a rap

When the Pussycat Dolls are hollering at you, I guess it's good to be 50 Cent....

Is it good to be Chili's [from TLC] son, I don't think so......

WESTSIDE STORY

2006-09-18T07:30:00.000-04:00

Ras Kass exemplifies the concept of Internet Thuggin'

Ras Kass -Hush Little Baby[Game diss] Not that impressive Ras....anticipating The Game's diss.

"Talib Kweli and 50 Cent are the same artists"....if you say so Kweli....

In this day and age, Christian leaders[i.e. Pope] indirectly talking sh*t about Muslims will lead to the 2006 CRUSADES.

NATURE OF THE THREAT

2006-09-15T07:23:00.000-04:00

The Game .vs. Ras Kass?

Apparently, The Game sucker punched Ras Kass in Los Angeles last night.

"Ras Kass' career is over, Game said. " I ended it last night with one punch." [now...that's gangsta]

Jadakiss + Papoose + Talib + Raekwon + Hi-Tek = Fire! [Jada burned all of them....wow]

Damn, when secret Pentagon documents state we're losing the Iraq War....that means we are really in trouble......

In 1095 A.D, this Pope began the Crusades[holy war], now in 2006 this Pope may initiate a new one......

Tupac roundtable with Cormega, Chino XL, et al.

Ethnic conflict + 200,000 Sudanese deaths in Darfur = Genocide

Everyone loves Tupac, but if you really do....find his killer.

[Disclaimer: The above video contains some of the most ignorant sh*t you will ever see in your life. Brace yourself.]

UNTIL KINGDOM COME

2006-09-14T07:23:00.000-04:00

Excuse me......it's no longer a Presidential Gala...

I guess the self proclaimed "Rap God'' is really coming back.[as if Jay-Z ever really left the rap game...]

It just might be a wrap for Al Franken and Air America....they need to borrow some dollars too.

Recently, NonFictional Fantasies got some recognition over this post, [but the way Lupe's been talking]maybe I should watch my back....

It's sad to see this broken State Senator plead for his son's life, but that's Philly.....

The infamous crackhead couple's relationship is no more.

Maureen Dowd believes DICK Cheney should pull out his Wet Wipes.

Snoop explains his close relationship with Tupac.

In closing, another wonderful, yet depressing, Tupac video tribute.....

HOW LONG TIL WE MOURN YOU

2006-09-12T23:23:00.000-04:00

R.I.P Tupac Amuru Shakur [9/13/96 - 9/13/06]

Thug Immortal....many believe Tupac is still with us...look at these conspiracy theories....

Then again, those theories make you wonder......Tupac's LOST interview revealed.

The U.S is thanking Syria? I thought that Syria was part of the 'Axis of Evil'.......

Bobby Brown > Christina Aguilera

Lupe Fiasco - The Cool, Real, Pressure ft. Jay-Z [Food and Liquor is leaking AGAIN....9/19/06 better come soon......]

After countless viewings of Tupac Resurrection, listening to myriad Pac joints, and reading accounts from various family members it's still very hard to fathom the fact that Pac is no longer here with us. At the moment, no other MC has made such an astounding impact on hip-hop culture and the world at large. Though it has been ten years since his sudden, yet mysterious death, we our still infatuated Tupac and have ensured that his legacy will resonate in the minds of many for years to come. Pour out a little liquor.......R.I.P PAC

CAN I BORROW A DOLLAR

2006-09-11T21:39:00.000-04:00

Common's 'Pops' needs to borrow a dollar BADLY...

Informative and historical article depicting Common as a cheap asshole and 'Pops' as an impoverished crackhead[damn, didn't know it was THAT serious.]

"Niggaz don't set trends...they ride dicks....that's why everybody's Bloods and Crips " - 50 Cent [internet thuggin' is getting out of hand]

"Puerto Ricans are fiesty because of their mixed Black & Latino blood.." - Governor Arnold SchwarzeNazi

Oh, now I understand why the NYPD scared the sh*t out of us and made commuters run frantically like a bomb was about to go off on 9/11/06.....WTF? [sh*t was like a movie......NYC is running scared...]

After getting arrested in the Enzo last week, 50 Cent is forced to beat the sh*t out of an annoying fan.
Fu*k Colombia......Kenya got that coke!

Winky Wright vs. Jermaine Talyor part 2?

Yeah, Jay-Z is dropping another LP, Presidential Gala, in November....he's not retired...I've seen him perform 4 times in less than 2 years...blah...blah....

More and more proof that Dave Chapelle won't be coming back anytime soon...

THINGS DONE CHANGED

2006-09-11T01:02:00.000-04:00

Five years have passed....what have we learned from 9/11?

R.I.P to all victims of the WTC attacks, Afghanistan + Iraq wars......

This ex-DEA agent scared the crap out of NYC on Hot 97's Street Soldiers radio program about 9/11...he knows way too much.

Considering the Senate acknowledges there never was an Iraq/911 link....we should understand how many Iraqi civilians have died as well...

How in the fu*k did I meet this guy on the streets of NYC last Thursday?

Puffy = Diddy....just not while he's in the U.K.......

In contrast to 50 Cent and Nas' recent claim, Jin reminds us that Hip Hop is not dead.......

Just in case you missed 50 Cent's infamous Manhattan arrest[brilliant publicity stunt] this weekend...

HELL HATH NO FURY

2006-09-07T20:46:00.000-04:00

Is the G-Unit general getting soft?

50 squashes beef with Puffy? [just when sh*t was getting interesting...then again The Game vs. 50 beef was "squashed" as well....]

Speaking of THE GAME....he really is the Dr's Advocate [i.e. Dre will be on his sophomore LP]

Maybe 50 should quit rap beef and stick to selling and promoting books....

R. Kelly child porn + piss on minor trial will commence ASAP....

NotaNigga.com....niggaz....

Method Man + Immortal Technique + Saigon = something you should go to in NYC this November.....

Bill Clinton chinchecks ABC network to prevent the 'Path to 9/11' swiftboating of 'Slick Willy'....

Then again, ABC = Fox News....it looks as though they are just making things up about Clinton....

IS IT BILLY OR FAME?

2006-09-06T22:24:00.000-04:00

If you really read between the lines of 'Illseed's AHH Rumor section, it looks like M.O.P won't drop an LP because one of them is strung out on DRUGS. Guess you can't blame 50?

Damn M.O.P, what ever happened to this?

I wonder what was going through the cops' mind when they arrested this guy .

1st. Afghanistan 2nd. Iraq 3rd....looks like Iran [considering French and American citizens are in favor of a U.S vs. Iran war]

To those of you that cop those fake Nikes....the feds have just dismantled the "fake Nike gang".

Guess I talk to much smack about U.S athletes because apparently Marion Jones wasn't lying......

Fall back....or Suge might have to choke a bitch.......

THE GAME NEEDS JAMES STUPID

2006-09-06T13:13:00.000-04:00

You've been wondering about the man, J.A.M.E.S, who is coined the "Future of Hip Hop" on NonFictional Fantasies. I've always been on the cutting edge, but it's about time y'all begin to take notice. He's coming.......Peep this feature article from the kid J.A.M.E.S on BallerStatus.net....

Traces of Hope

HATE IT OR LOVE IT

2006-09-05T07:10:00.000-04:00

I Love These Guys......

Stop the presses! NonFictional Fantasies is still up and running! Unfortunately, 48 to 72 hours without updates equates to months in "blog time". Apologies for the extended Labor Day weekend/vacation......

It's official...even MTV is reporting on 50 Cent going at Puffy.

Fu*k HBO....watch Spike Lee's When The Levees Collapsed here...

Unfortunately for CBS, more sponsors are pulling out of their nouveaux Survivor series.

Things change after you win an MTV VMA......major broadcast networks[ABC] issue you public apologies.

Are Black Democrats "liberal" enough for the left?

Not only will we be able to watch the Crocodile Hunter's death on video...watch Mos Def get locked up at the VMAs..

French World Cup legend head-butted the sh*t out of that Italian jerk...but exactly what was it that set him off?

G-UNIT KILLER

2006-09-02T19:11:00.000-04:00

Young Buck stabbed a man with a fork....collapsed his lung.....beat the attempted murder rap....pretty gangsta...yeah he can rock that shirt.[O.J should cop one too.]

MOS DEFINITELY ARRESTED

2006-09-01T20:05:00.000-04:00

And they say conscious rappers don't go to jail....

Apologies for the previous shoddy posting.... My man saw Mos Def on the street last night in NYC....guess he was coming from the precinct.

Say what you want about Utah, but the Salt Lake City Mayor is going hard[pause] at Mr. Bush.

You want more proof of Hov's inevitable return....ask Hype Williams.

Djing at this rapper's VMA party was phenomenal.

Another shitty post....sue me......it's either blog or get fired....Happy Labor Day Bitches!

QUICK POST

2006-08-31T12:57:00.000-04:00

50 Cent + 'Bigger Than Hip-Hop' beat = new Puffy diss!

Immortal Technique never made a video for 'Bin Laden'....so someone else did it for him.

In related news....a movie was produced. A U.S president was assasinated. Can you guess which one it was?

Have to run.........

PISS DADDY

2006-08-30T12:36:00.000-04:00

We won't stop pissing because we can't stop pissing.

Last week, we watched Puffy drunk and in drag, now we get to watch him urinate. Yes, the man that cultivated Biggie's career has so much class...

Kidnap a politician's son for ransom. Shoot his wife and daughter. Next episode of The Wire? No, but that's Philly for you.....

Dave Chappelle has no regrets for leaving Comedy Central.

FOX News ratings are slipping severely....it really takes us Americans a long time to weed through the bullsh*it.

It's official....the world is coming to an end + Peedi Peedi IS joining The Roots.

CNN Cafferty shows us that Katrina may've been the 'defining moment of the Bush presidency.

50 Cent was wrong. Fat Joe wasn't forced to move to the artists' graveyard(Koch) he went to Virgin.

In celebration of The Roots' Game Theory release...listen to J.Period's, Best of The Roots.

DEAF, DUMB, & BLIND

2006-08-29T11:46:00.000-04:00

Foxy Brown looks really good[but,still sounds deaf] and even makes a remarkable move and sqaushes BEEF...but she still has to make ammends with a multitude of her most recent adversaries....

Foxy Brown pulls a John Kerry-like flip-flop by pleading guilty in court....then subsequently pleading NOT GUILTY?

Fall back...or 50 Cent might have to smack a bitch! [literally]

Damn….they ACTUALLY made a video for the Chicken Noodle song. WHY!

New info concerning Talib’s new LP, Eardrum.

Forget about mourning at funerals…..bring out the strippers bitches!

One year later....the real state of affairs in post-Katrina New Orleans.

Whack ass Miss Jones of Hot 97 fame FINALLY get's suspended for something[ fuc*ing with Beyonce.]

New joint, Man Up, from the self-proclaimed Wally Champ......sounding good Ghost.

Unfortunately, name-dropping Bill O'Reilly won't get you out of a speeding ticket.....

PEEDI PEEDI?

2006-08-28T20:18:00.000-04:00

Peedi Crack to join THE ROOTS? If this happens... this world is definitely coming to an end. Case Closed.

POINT OF NO RETURN

2006-08-28T15:11:00.000-04:00

Where in the fu*k is the Middle Passage?

More proof that Foxy Brown is a straight up asshole.

FINALLY...new heat from Immortal Technique[the game has been waiting for the Middle Passage..]

Step your sneaker game up.

Did anyone even know Cormega had a video for this? And I know Mega is "real hip-hop", but this is VERY low budget...damn.

WANTED: OSAMA BIN LADEN...but not for 9/11 Terror Attacks? WTF?

As we anticipate Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor....listen to excerpts of FNF radio!

New footage of the Reasonable Doub t concert.[IMHO it's not the same if you weren't there fuc*ers.]

Some believe that post-Katrina America is no longer the "greatest country in the world".

Happy Birthday shouts to the kid J.A.M.E.S......until next time..

U DON'T KNOW

2006-08-25T11:29:00.000-04:00

$1 Billion Man.

STOP SNITCHIN'

2006-08-24T12:43:00.000-04:00

Stop Snitching Bitches!

NY Times columnist, Bob Herbert, rips into the hood philosophy of Stop Snitching.....

Jay-Z .vs. Beanie Siegal is starting to become more and more credible.....TakeOver Pt. 2?

Who needs condoms when you have this for sale? [what has the world come to....lol]

Fu*k rap beef....we know Macho Man dissed Hulk Hogan on wax...but the Ugandan giant Kamala got tracks! WTF?

Al Sharpton + Bill Cosby = Fu*k Hip Hop.....well sort of...

As the one year anniversary of 'Katrina' is upon us....we remember what really happened.

Though to some, the "Stop Snitchin" campaign is old news, Bob Herbert's editorial concerning the controversial philosophy illustrates how this mentality has garnered nationwide attention. Nonwithstanding the Busta Rhymes shooting incident, escalating murder rates in innner cities coupled with lambasting from political figures, one is left to wonder who is to blame for this mentality? Is it ignorance, the prevalance of gangsta rap, crooked cops, or a combination of all said factors? As Bill Cosby and other more conservative members of the Black community continue to address problems within "Black America" and the hip-hop community, is there a way to defend this mentality that has pervaded ''Ghetto America?'' Some believe we should "Start Snitching."In a recent XXL issue, myriad rappers attempted to explain the importance of not snitching, but in my opinion many have confused snitching with justice. If you incriminate an associate to receive a lighter sentence or mitigated punishment that is SNITCHING. However, assisting authorities in convicting a guilty individual that harms innocent people is administering JUSTICE. As the Stop Snitching campaign continues to be glorified, one is left to wonder if this state of mind will ever cease or whether this is truly the spawning of a new movement. Whatever the case may be, one way or another, it seems as if countless crimes[i.e the murder of Israel Ramirez, Tupac, Biggie, JMJ, et al.] will continue to be unsolved in the inner cities across America.

DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE

2006-08-23T13:50:00.000-04:00

Damn Russell....say it ain't so......

In an earlier post, I said that U.S terror strikes equals an election year[ wasn't meant literally] but, maybe I was right.....

Skateboard P explains the dichotomy of being a backpacker and multimillionaire.

For those that say Black Eyed Peas ain't hip-hop....Will.I.Am is damn near making Nas' whole new album...WTF?

ONE BLOOD PREMIERE

2006-08-22T22:24:00.000-04:00

The GAME's video is hot, but it doesn't do justice to the track......don't you miss the G-UNIT namedropping and cameos?

BEAST FROM THE EAST

2006-08-22T07:02:00.000-04:00

I'm not sure if the world is ready for this....

Back from Hong Kong, Beijing, and elsewhere in the Eastern Hemisphere...will return to Beijing and hit Babyface and Banana very soon......

Only hours upon entry into the States and I can already feel the hype for Lupe Fiasco's Food and Liquor escalating. Considering my previous post on "Mr. Righteous Kung Fu", I had credible reservations concerning his ability to attain mass appeal. [based upon my viewing of his lackluster performance] However, after watching his new video for "I Gotcha", I am still uncertain of how Lupe Fiasco will be perceived by the very fickle[downloading]buying public. The "I Gotcha" video is a very bold statement with respect to its assortment of pastel colors, action figures,StreetWear, and tripped out backgrounds. Contrarily, this video is already on MTV2, Lupe's backed by the internet,[respectively sneakerheads, cybergeeks...] heavyweights in the industry,[El Presidente, Skateboard P] and serious corporate backing[Reebok, and Atlantic Records' mean legal team] Hell, for some stupid reason Atlantic asked my man Eskay to pull an unreleased Lupe video off of his website. [Daydreamin ft. Jill Scott] I doubt I will be asked to remove it. It seems as if Atlantic doesn't understand the paradigm of Shameless Promotion like some of us do. However, with the advent of Food and Liquor on the horizon, the questions concerning Fiasco's official entrance into "the game" still linger. Will this freshman release do 50 Cent-like numbers and force hip hop to drop the glock and pick up the skateboard? Will Lupe really make it cool for [little] kids to be intelligent, nerdy, and ok to be into esoteric things like toy robots and Japanese Anime? Things change. Two and a half years ago, I didn't have the foresight to suggest that Kanye West would influence youth to wear Louis Vuitton bookbags and Polo shirts with their collars out. I guess only time will tell.

TOUCH THE SKY

2006-08-18T10:16:00.000-04:00

In addition, unclaimed cellphones and maniac passengers can force planes to land.....great!

STREET CONNOISSEUR

2006-08-15T12:53:00.000-04:00

Haven't felt this materialistic since high school, but these poor people in HK are drowning in hot kicks and expensive name brand fashion........

My counterparts here in Hong Kong and throughout the Far East are not happy with the Japanese PM's tiny insensitive gesture....wonder why?

Now I understand why there are huge Damon Jones posters in HK....looks like SHAQ is next up..

Can anyone explain why 50 Cent is going to be collaborating with Chamillionaire?

TRAVELIN' MAN

2006-08-14T12:12:00.000-04:00

Sh*t in HK is official....

Upon my arrival in the Far East, I see that U.S rappers aren't the only ones going to jail for bullsh*t......

Ice Cube says Black politicians are as suspect as the White ones......

Looks like the late Israel Ramirez's sister believes Busta Rhymes is full of sh*t.......

Dope video, "Listen" from Talib Kweli[ I just wish his voice hadn't become so damn high pitch and annoying....]

Mo' Money Mo' Problems for Jigga

"Look at these shoes yo you can't find that/'less you flyin' to Singapore[HK] homie you ain't buyin that"- LUPE FIASCO

Since my arrival in Hong Kong, I have been dumbfounded by the culture and fast pace way of life in this illustrious city. I have been influenced. Bathing Ape. Evisu. Hermes. Undercover. If you name it...Hong Kong has it tenfold. It may seem very naive and somewhat superficial to only discuss exclusive, high-end fashion when visiting a foreign country, however, there are ridiculous malls EVERYWHERE in HK[including the subway stations......it seems as if that's all there is to do here....seriously] I don't know who can afford it, but HK has everything and sorry to say it, but this place sh*ts on NYC in terms of fashion. Never believed that HYPEBEAST would come in handy, but I was able to visit DMOP, KING WAH CENTER, I.T., BAPE, EVISU, JUICE and every other miscellaneous fashion boutique specializing in cutting edge Street Wear and other exclusive punk, skaternerdish, Lupe Fiasco-like fashion. Additionally, I visited the infamous SNEAKER STREET in Mogk Kok where they sell endless Nike Airmaxes, Dunks, and every single sneaker made in the Far East.[though you must sort through all of the bootleg kicks]Though, I peeped their fashion scene, I haven't heard much hip-hop over here. However, considering the stares that I get and random requests from the locals begging to take a picture with me...maybe they think that I am a rapper?[ I feel like Blackzilla with the stares that I am getting from people over here...lol] All in all, my preliminary perception of HK legitimizes the notion that globalization is real and the 7/11s and KFCs on every corner prove it. Furthermore with that aside, as far as shopping goes, when it comes down to it, sh*t in HK is very official.....wow my head is still spinning...pause.....until next time...

ALONG TO HONG KONG

2006-08-10T05:04:00.000-04:00

Pause...just because I'm going to StreetWear HQ....I won't come back rocking fruity colors and stuffed animals...

According to my humble observations, most of these internet whores[bloggers] don't ever leave their homes....EVER. Fortunately, I am unlike my counterparts and will shortly be departing for Hong Kong. With that said, expect frequent[yet sporadic] posts from the Far East , but continue to visit us at NonFictional Fantasies...

Just when your about to hit the airport....great......TERROR strikes....I smell an election year...

Conversely, maybe I chose the WRONG destination......

The Diddy/BAD BOY RECORDS curse continues....next victim.....Choppa?

Apparently....the majority of casualties in the Israeli-Lebanese war are.......children.

It looks like the crack habit just happens to run in the MAN's family..........

Furthermore, in HK I will have so much access to exclusive BAPEs and STREETWEAR that the Hypebeast skaternerds will turn green with envy...lol....early

HUNGER FOR MORE

2006-08-09T11:19:00.000-04:00

So who is the richest mogul in hip-hop, Diddy, Jigga, or Fifty? Where's Jimmy Iovine?

Saigon is killing, 'The Corner'.......if The Greatest Story Never Told sounds like this....there is still hope for 06'.

After you rape and kill a young Iraqi girl....why not just grill some chicken wings?
