PICTURES WITH WORDS: Lil’ Wayne - Dr. Carter (2nd Verse)
Filed Under PICTURES WITH WORDS | Leave a Comment
Leading up to the highly anticipated release of The Carter 3, many people were turned off by the fake snippets that leaked earlier this week. But hopes went back up when the official tracklist leaked, and now…I gotta blog a verse from this dope ass song…
Verse 2:
Respect is in the heart
So that’s where I’ma start
And a lot of heart patients don’t make it
But hey kid
Plural, I graduated
Cause you can get through anything if magic made it
And that was called recycling, are we reciters of it
Cause you just like us, so you say you just like it?
Some say its biting but I say it’s enlightening
Besides, Dr. Kanye west is one of the brightest.
And Dr. Swizz can stitch ya track the tightest.
And Dr. Jeezy can fix you back up the nicest.
Arthritis in my hand from writing but
I’ma doctor they don’t understand my writing
So I stop writing, now I’m like lighting
And you ain’t fish him so don’t clash with the titan
Fast and exciting
My passion is frightening
Now lemme put some more vocab in your IV
Here take yo Vicodin, like it and love
And confidence has no budget
So pay me no mind, I don’t walk it like I talk it,
Cause I run it I don’t do it cause I done it
And I’m in the emergency unit

Wow, growing up I was always the artistic type into drawing, painting, writing and the such. So because of that, I love it when I come across wildly imaginative installations such as the one Benjamin Verdonck has created with this human bird nest. I found it over at the SupertouchBlog! I would’ve loved to see him in a bird costume, but maybe that’s just me putting extra’s on it. Not only did he create the bird nest (and I’m curious as to how he built that structure on the side of the building), he left some goodies on the ground for unsuspecting onlookers below, hehe. Here’s a little description from SuperTouch.
Belgian artist BENJAMIN VERDONCK has taken the usually verboten medium of performance art to new heights of greatness with his new NEST installation titled “The Great Swallow” in Rotterdam, Netherlands. Perched 50 meters above the city square on the side of the 13th floor of the Wenna Tower (aka: “The Pepperbox”), Verdonck’s windy new home is, according the artist, constructed of “the crowns of 23 silver birches, two straw bales, one bucket of spit, three bags of sand, twelve buckets of glue, and nineteen cans of polyurethane foam.” Residing in the perch since its construction a week ago, the artist has seen a lot of debris float down to his numerous fans at street level including feathers, a giant egg, and copious amounts of bird shit. No word yet on how long the installation will remain or what the artist’s final stunt will be, but we’re guessing it could quite easily include a caravan of ambulances.
Also, check out a video of the craziness:

The infamous VIMBY crew went out to NYC to celebrate with Kidz In The Hall for releasing their new album The In Crowd. There were definitely a lot of cameos in the building from Estelle, Travis of Gym Class Heroes, Phonte and others.

20/20: Rare Goodie MOb Interview from 1998
Filed Under 20/20 | Leave a Comment
I was watching this and I could’ve believe its been ten years since Still Standing came out. The music scene in the South definitely has changed since those times. Maybe so much so that many people who call themselves “hating” the South either forgot about how important the South has been to Hip Hop, or they just don’t realize. Suffice to say, watching this made me put Still Standing back into rotation.

Travis Barker does what he does best, makes hip hop joints a bit more interesting. He flipped Soulja Boy and Flo-Rida’s Low already, now let’s see what he does with a joint we all respect a bit more. Oh and if you aren’t familiar with this song yet, don’t get McFly’d, go listen to it.

The Seinfeld inspired Mixtape About Nothing finally dropped today. This probably won’t leave my CD player for quite sometime. It’s a pretty creative mixtape with one cohesive theme, not like all of these other random mixtapes that come out with a bunch of random tracks on it and no solid theme. There are definitely a lot of gems on here and it’s a good intro for anyone that doesn’t really know why Wale deserves the buzz he has.
Once again, shouts to Elitaste for the leak!
