“Dear Hip Hop. (stop)
This shit has gone too far. (stop).
Please see that mixers …and turntables are returned to Kool Herc. (stop).
The ghettos are dancing off beat. (stop).
The master of ceremonies have forgotten that they were once slaves and have neglected the occasion of this ceremony. (stop).
Perhaps we should not have encouraged them to use cordless microphones, for they have walked too far from the source and are emitting a lesser frequency. (stop).
Please inform all interested parties that cash nor murder have been added to the list of elements. (stop). We are discontinuing our current line of braggadocio in light of the current trend in “realness.” (stop).
As an alternative, we will be confiscating weed supplies and replacing them with magic mushrooms in hopes of helping niggas see beyond their reality. (stop).
Give my regards to Brooklyn.See More

Flashback Friday: Pebbles “Mercedes Boy” (Extended Version)
Can we go back to 19eightywhatever when black men could dance around in videos and still be the leading man? I’m over mean-muggin. Pebbles Perri Holyghost Reid was not about to let some scowling, saggypantsed thug into her Mercedes. She was not about that Angry Rapper Life. Give her a Pretty Boy With an S-Curl Who Studied Modern Dance so they can go shopping and get their hair did together. I ain’t mad atcha, Ms. Pebbles.
I played the fuck THEE FUCK out of this song when I was little…Man I needed this!!!
