I have the same problem
"I didn't know George Washington wore tights so tight. I actually couldn't put the tights on how I was supposed to because they were so tight. I was embarrassed with the tights on because they really hug your nuts. So instead of the tights they bought from the prop house, I had a pair of [thermals] also. I'm from New York. So I put on my own tights. More baggy, more space for my nuts."
RZA talks about dressing up as George Washington to pose for his phenomenal recreation of Emanuel Leutze's famed 1851 painting "Washington Crossing the Delaware" called "Victory or Death" (pictured above). (via L.A. Weekly)
the saga continues...
Wu-Tang Saga (directed by Jeremy Mack) is the ultimate documentary spanning over the last 2 years of the Wu-Tang Clan and over 9 Wu-Tang Clan concerts including the last 2 times, perhaps the last times, the whole Clan performed live together along with the infamous 8 Diagram \our where the Shaolin Emcees rebelled against The Abbott (RZA) and went on tour without the RZA. Also includes a tour of Staten Island, exclusive freestyles, album photoshoots, a look inside the Wu-Tang tour buses, Wu-Tang 5% philosophies, album in-store signings and more. For once you will experience what is like to be part of the Clan. Narrated exclusively by the Clan themselves (unlike the BET documentary this film isn’t filled with random a&r’s or street guys talking about the clan), this film stars Cappadonna, Raekwon, Method Man, Ghostface Killah, Rza, Gza, Inspectah Deck, Masta Killa, U-God, Papa Wu, True Master, Prodigal Sunn, Allah Mathematics, 12 O’ Clock, Chi King, Slick Rick and more. This film is over 2 hours and the DVD version also includes over a hour of bonus features including extended interviews, bonus performances, music videos and much more….Ships out February 25th.
Ice-T shot me in the face...
Ice-T Shot Me In The Face & Eleven Other Stories Rap Music.
Forget reading that four line blog post about Lil Wayne for a minute, and direct your attention to the first book from Toronto based freelance music journalist Luke Fox. This is perhaps the furthest thing from the inane, regurgitated micro-posting that music writing has become, with 12 feature length stories centered on some of raps finest, complete with subtle illustrations by Jeremy Wirth. Fox narrates up close and personal encounters with Kool G Rap, Ghostface Killah, Nas, Kanye West, Common and more, capturing their personalities with a well informed wit and style.
After spending 10 years as a staff writer and editor for Pound Magazine, Fox stockpiled a wealth of interviews with emcees, producers, and DJs, experience that shows in his fluid and confident writing. Ice-T Shot me in the Face & Eleven Other Stories About Rap Music is first and foremost written by a fan, offering a refreshingly hearty helping of edutainment, and a welcome departure from the new world of fast food music journalism.

Meow Meow
Via Hipster Runoff...
Just read about a ‘kewl new drug’ that u can buy on the internet. It seems like u could really ‘party hard’ on this drug. Wonder if meow meow will lead us out of the chill wave era.
Just read about a ‘kewl new drug’ that u can buy on the internet. It seems like u could really ‘party hard’ on this drug. Wonder if meow meow will lead us out of the chill wave era.
Here is an ‘informative quote’ about the drug:
Meow Meow (mephedrone) is easily, and legally, bought over the internet where it is often advertised as plant feed. When taken as a tablet, or snorted as a powder, it gives a similar high to Ecstasy and abuse has taken off in the UK over the past couple of years…The drug is likely to be one of the first items on the agenda for Professor Les Iversen*, the Government’s new drugs czar. Other “legal highs” such as BZP (a derivative of a worming agent) and GBL (paint stripper) have now been reclassified as Class C drugs under the Misuse of Drugs Act, but mephedrone — and a similar drug, salvia or “herbal ecstasy” (the leaves of the Mexican plant Salvia divinorum) — are now under review.
Also read sensational story that a bro ripped off his scrotum while on meow meow:
It has been linked to one death so far in the UK — a 14-year old girl who took it at a party near Brighton — and there have been a number of people admitted to hospital with bizarre side-effects, including a teenage boy, who is reported to have had such severe hallucinations that he ripped off his scrotum.
Have u ever done meow meow?
Have u ever ripped off ur scrotum?
Will meowmeow inspire a genre of music calle meowmeowwave?
Will this drug be worse for u than cigarettes?
