Back on the Camel... Swag Surfin... or not
I’ve been observing life again from atop a camel hump… Some things really just confuse me and some things are really just funny to me.
1) Steve Harvey’s book causes an epiphany in women. Now they understand what men are saying. – Are there really that many men in the world that are full of shit that women can’t understand simple words? Or is it the whole ‘believe none of what you heard and half of what you see’ thing. Either way, somebody needs to do some soul searching.
2) People are more inclined to rely on word of mouth than actual fact. – I watched person after person talk about how they weren’t eating pork anymore because of the swine flu, yet I saw not one news report that said that eating pork was the thing that spread the swine flu. Amazing how people will spend hours out of the day on the internet looking up the latest dance or celebrity nude photo but won’t look up things that are important to our existence.
3) The media is based on fear-mongering. – While I’m on the subject of the swine flu, let’s talk simple math for a second. At one point when the swine flu was first considered an epidemic, the amount of cases was 300+ and the death toll stood at 8. I found this to be interesting because the regular influenza virus has millions of cases annually and claims hundreds of thousands of lives, yet it isn’t considered an epidemic. And how about those folks who wore the masks to keep from catching it. I wonder how many of them use condoms because AIDS is still spreading rapidly and killing millions worldwide. Can someone say SARS?
4) DRAKE!!!! – Okay, I like Drake as much as the next hip-hop fan but can we please stop with the over-saturation of his music. The man has yet to drop an actual album yet and he’s created more buzz than a lot of the proven artists in the game. What’s going to happen is folks are going to get tired of him before he ever drops an album. I know we are all desperate for something new and refreshing in the game but all I ask is that we don’t kill this man’s career before it starts.
5) What’s Beef – Cleveland artists are claiming that one artist is still another artist’s swag… SERIOUSLY? I wonder if anybody in the actual industry cares? What about the general public? How about we stop the bs’n and start trying to put some of these folks on. Besides, your swag was never yours to begin with.
6) What’s Beef pt. 2 (Nick Cannon and Eminem) – GTFOH!!! Nick Cannon didn’t like the track where Eminem talks about him being with Mariah? Does this mean we get to hear a Nick Cannon track dissing Eminem? Woohoo!!! *insert disinterested face*
7) Boyfriend # 2 – So I guess it’s what’s hot in the streets these days for guys to want to be the other man in a relationship. And what does that say for all the women out here that claim that men ain’t shit yet have a bf #2… Remember that mask I talked about before… Yeah, you should take that joint off in 5… 4… 3… 2…
8) Sex tapes & Naked flicks – Poor Cassie. First you get exposed for being a fraud as a singer, then you get exposed… LITERALLY! I guess since putting Lil Wayne on a track with you didn’t help sales maybe getting naked might huh? And Rihanna and C. Breezy are in the mix too. Sorry if I’m not interested in this either. And give it up for Hoopz (of Flavor of Love fame) for upstaging them all with 7 seconds of, well, giving it up. Fellas are gonna be searching that video for real now. I wonder if I did a sex tape, would more people visit my blog…
I’m getting off my camel for now, I think he’s finally thirsty. Holler at y’all later.

I Love My Levi's
Won’t you be my Levi’s
And never go out of style
Those other girls are Ed Hardy
They’re only hot for awhile
They‘ll collect dust in the back of the closet
While I rock you everyday
They only look good with one style
And you’re a good look in every way
Let those other cats have True Religion
And all the passing fads
Just give that classic 501 love
The Levi’s like my dad’s
You compliment my sexy
You look good dressed up or down
The style you have speaks volumes
Without ever making a sound
It doesn’t matter your cut baby
I like you skinny or wide
You can roll for a night on the town
Or spend a nice chill evening inside
I love my Levi’s lady
There just classic sexy it’s true
So won’t you be my Levi’s
I’m so comfortable in you
And never go out of style
Those other girls are Ed Hardy
They’re only hot for awhile
They‘ll collect dust in the back of the closet
While I rock you everyday
They only look good with one style
And you’re a good look in every way
Let those other cats have True Religion
And all the passing fads
Just give that classic 501 love
The Levi’s like my dad’s
You compliment my sexy
You look good dressed up or down
The style you have speaks volumes
Without ever making a sound
It doesn’t matter your cut baby
I like you skinny or wide
You can roll for a night on the town
Or spend a nice chill evening inside
I love my Levi’s lady
There just classic sexy it’s true
So won’t you be my Levi’s
I’m so comfortable in you

Music Reviews...
Relapse by Eminem
Tracks: 20
Rating: ♪♪♪
Eminem finally returns to the game after a near 5-year hiatus, and this album has been highly anticipated. However, the hype and anticipation goes unwarranted as Eminem gives a less than stellar performance on this album. He sticks with his old formula of shocking lyrics and rewind that back, what did he just say material but some of the metaphors that he had been known to kill the game in the past just don’t add up on this album. Sometimes it seems that he relies strictly on his wordplay alone to carry him through this album. However, he does manage to give a few gems Slim Shady style and gives a glimpse into what is going on in the head of Marshall Mathers on the track Beautiful.
Notable Tracks:
Beautiful
Same Song and Dance
My Mom
Underground
Epiphany by Chrisette Michele
Tracks: 12
Rating: ♪♪♪♪
After a strong showing on her first album, I Am, Chrisette had gained a following that anxiously anticipated a new release, and Epiphany does not disappoint. Epiphany shows a growth in the Chrisette as an artist and a bigger budget with more solid production. Lyrically, she gives a stellar performance. She starts the album strong with her lead single, Epiphany, a catchy and mature break-up anthem, and she doesn’t let you go throughout the album. Another solid effort from one of the industry’s up & comers.
Notable Tracks:
Epiphany
Blame It On Me
Notebook
What You Do (feat. Ne-Yo)
In A Perfect World by Keri Hilson
Tracks: 14
Rating: ♪♪♪ 1/2
It’s quite apparent that from first listen to this newcomer that she isn’t as vocally strong as some would hope for, but she makes up for it with strong lyrical content over decent beats with catchy hooks. Keri Hilson gives a decent effort on In a Perfect World... although she does fall short of the hype she generated with two solid singles, Energy and Turnin’ Me On. Overall, it is not a bad album and it isn’t entirely forgettable. She fits in nicely among the R&B/Pop divas of this time period (Rihanna, Beyonce, Ashanti, etc.)
Notable Tracks:
Knocks You Down (feat. Ne-Yo & Kanye West)
Slow Dance
Energy
Turnin’ Me On (Feat. Lil Wayne)
Tracks: 20
