The Black Brett Favre


Is Jay-z becoming the Black Brett Favre? He was supposed to retire after Volume 2 when he said it in the intro. Now we are on volume never ending story that he sold crack. All we need is the white flying dog throwing up the triangle and we are set. We get it your the greatest of all time you done things in this game that nobody ever has done or will do and we will never forget that because you tell us that on every song.

Its crazy writing this because for a long time I was Hova's biggest ally. I had an answer for anything they threw my way. Ask me to explain the sunshine video "Sunshine" I was like puffy dancing fucked up the glow of the suit but it was hot when he first bought it." Ask me to explain the Nas 2nd diss and I would point to that he didn't lose it was just Nas was using word steroids so it should be stricken from the record books. Ask me 2 explain why Memphis Bleek had a career I was finally tongue-tied. Relax though Bleek you are in the will somewhere between Beyonce's huge portion and Ta Ta's share for making sure that Mr. "I wish" wished his tour partner didn't roll so hard. Oh yeah and that was jay-z handing down justice the courts didn't.
But lately I've been flabbergasted at the true similarities between the two all time greats. Both had a period of utter dominance that was unparalleled in their fields Favre with the MVP awards and Hov with the ten straight summers. Both had an uncharacteristic fall from grace Favre with his addiction to pain killers and Jay with the Blueprint 2(Really a Frank Sinatra cover was the way to go after ETHER....! Alert the bitchassness police I think we got a suspect). And the a return to grace only to be tarnished by a comeback.I don't know which was worse Favre Jet year or 'Kingdom Come'. "Show Me What You Got". I'll tell you what you don't have: Another Hit.

Don't get me wrong these two are some of the greatest of all time. But they remind me of when I got He-Man and the Castle of Greyskull for Christmas. It was the greatest thing I ever got and I will always remember the feeling I got when I opened it I still get chills. But that doesn't mean 20 years later I break it out when I have company over like "We're really going to have fun now!!!" That's the way I feel about Jay-Z and Brett Favre. That they should stay in the memories and attics of our mind forever and never come back.

La da da da hail hail goodbye

The show was great and everything was fine great comics I always have fun at pudge's show @ play lounge. This is prolly the most fun environment - ever been. A bowling alley, pooln drinks and plinko. I am pretty sure it has prostitution if you can stay long enough not that I can condone it but here you can get it at a reasonable price.Pudge Fernandez runs the joint and I can vouch that he is.1 of the hardest working guys in the game. Not that these drinks have anything to do with it but I am downing another henny and coke while I am writing this blog. This is really testing the limits of performance enhancers. I hope I am not tested because I will be suspended for 100 shows. Well at least - can blame it literally on over the counter stimulants. I am out like Lil Wayne kissing Baby

If I don't like the things going on around me. Maybe I need to 2 change the things that I'm around

When we last left our nongangster hero, it was real dark and bleary for him. I mean times got real hard like trying to understand Sarah Palin's thought's before the speechwriter's come and do their job of making her competently stupid. I mean your boy had no where to live no certain future I was turning into my worst nightmare; A stereotype of myself. All I was missing was a copy of certain catch phrases like "The White man is holding me down," and my personal favorite "what can I do but just stay black and die". I was about to to give up and quit like Judd Apatow does in every movie. Yep all this time and tales about drugs alcohol and depression was just a trap to lead you into the ultimate climax, a love story which I don't have any idea where it came from. So yes quitting was an option, just a bad one that potentially could ruin a great blog.
So what did I do with all this pressure mounting on my shoulders when I thought I had nowhere to turn to? My mother is in a new relationship and my father is now disabled. My grandmom has enough stress on her hands handling her own rent. Where was I 2 go what was I 2 do?
My best friend saved me like mariano rivera circa 2000 but still a lot of changes needed to be made. No longer could the coochie and alcohol be my masters and the only ppl who could be down with me had to roll like al in the white bronco not roll over like the boys who were actually living at Michael Vick's house. I learned I was master of my own domain king of my own castle(well maybe court jester but at least my spot is reserved. Now who is ready 2 count these millions with me in 2028?
