I used to ask to copy your algebra homework before class.
...I was totally asking for the wrong favor.

Hater Alert: this time it's personal
"Keep my name up out your mouth and we can keep it the same, Nigga" -Dr. Dre
An open letter to a certain hating-ass Irish Downtowner who, at this time, will remain nameless,
It seems that I'm quite the topic of conversation for you lately. I can't believe that you would call Cousin-Camille with all sorts of bizarre accusations and ramblings, getting her all worked up. You said that you were worried about my GF because you saw me at 107 with a girl? What The Fuck Dude, that's some bitch shit. I fucking go to the bar with hella broads. They're my fucking friends. Half of the world's population is female and half of my friends are girls. duh!
And how about the Celtic X Celtic hate? What's next, are you going to throw rocks at the Irish half of Jessica Pell?
Yo, listen, I've never counted you among my close friends but I liked you and I thought we were cool. You can hate me all you'd like but please stop launching these gay reckless hater attacks just because you want to dish with your girlfriends about what the "boys" are up to Downtown. It stressful to my household and to my situation and they are hurtful to more than just me.
I'd love to just forget all about this whole incident and just mark you as a person with jealousy issues and hateful tendencies but I'm not sure if the block will let me let this go. Motherfuckers remember this type of shit.
In closing, I'd just like you to slow your roll and cease the jabs at the most important relationship I've ever had in my life.
Steffi and I the day we packed our wagon and first headed west way back in '02

Jonny Make-Up X Wee Ginger Cunt: The Fuckin' Interview
"QUIT DROOLING, VOTE FOR ME"-Jonny Make-Up
It's Sunday and today’s the day that I’m to interview Jonny make-Up, homo star of stage and screen. I’m eager as Jonny's beaver to talk about Banks Band Break-Ups, upcoming singles with T.L.C mega-producer Dallas Austin and the rumors that he’s a pussy loving queer-not.
I’m on my way to pick Jonny up from Dov’s Silverlake mansion in the sky.
Jonny floats down the stairs as I notice a large Shepard-type canine “must be a new addition”, I think of the guard dog.
Jenny “Miami” Moyal accompanies Jonny. It’s a hilltop reunion and we all kiss our respective hellos and good byes.
“Hey can we start the interview process at the Mexican barbershop?” Jonny asks politely, which for Jonny make-Up can sound like down right pleading. “Of course we can, Jonny.”
At the International Beauty salon on Echo Park Blvd Jonny sits down in the barber chair surrounded by myself, Stephanie in the role of Cunt photographer and Make-Up’s fill-in stylist for the day, Rosario. He’s a star and everyone in the spot knows it.
Wee Ginger Cunt: How do like to get your fade did? (I ask pointing to the standard “boy’s haircut” poster displayed on the wall.)
Jonny Make-Up: In between #25 and 26. It’s a bowl cut but foofed to the side. I usually work with Nelly. Nelly’s not here so Rosario is taking care of me today. When Nelly gets back she’s gonna finger wave it. It’s gonna be my Spring/Summer ’09 look.
WGC: There’s a pretty big rumor circulating the factory and elsewhere that you’re not gay.
Jonny: Everyone always says that; that it’s just an act and I really like girls. I don’t understand it
WGC: I don’t understand either.
Jonny: I mean I get to hang out with a lot of beautiful women and models and stuff but I like boys and I always have.
WGC: Tory told me that he tried to kiss you and you shied away.
Jonny: I’m very like that. Once you give me a little of what I want I shy away
WGC: Even Tory, he’s a pretty hot dude?
Jonny: I know, even from Tory
WGC: Who do you hate more the kids from Gravy Train or Cazwell.
Jonny: Well I’m kinda pissed off at Cazwell right now. He always asks me to come to New York to perform with him. When he played at my friend Jaime’s gig he didn’t even ask me to come so I’m a little pissed off at him right now.
WGC: He probably just forgot.
Jonny: How could you forget about me when you’re singing a song that I’m singing on? He just let the hook play!
WGC: Why do people say that things are the new black?
Jonny: I don’t know, someone told me that I was the new black.
WGC: How the fuck did you get involved with Dallas Austin?
Jonny: Well, I’ve been working with this dude Cory Enemy, who is an amazing producer. He worked on a Miss Shapes remix of [a song by] my old band V.I.P Party Boys. This label signed us but we were dropped by the end of our first European tour because of the drug use of my band mates.
Wee Ginger Cunt: You don’t drink, you don’t do drugs, I think Tyra should send you to rehab for being a pussy.
Jonny: NO! I’m not a pussy. I wish you could have met me when I was bangin’ the H and bangin’ the K. Anyways, The re-mix never really went anywhere and I kept telling Cory how bad I wanted to go solo. I started to work with Cory on my first single Blacklisted and right after that he got a big production deal with Dallas Austin and moved to Atlanta. I thought I would never, ever, ever, be able to work with him again, but then Cory introduced me to Dallas and I guess we kinda hit it off. I gave him the charm. He pinky promised me that I could come and work with him and Cory in the studio in Atlanta.
WGC: That must have been exciting.
Jonny: Yeah, He was like “come to the ATL and work on your album, don’t be scurred.”
When I flew out there I had to hold back tears so many times when I saw the T.L.C. platinum record and the Madonna platinum record and the Pink platinum record I’m like, “OMFG, I’m here”
WGC: I think you’re way better than Pink.
Jonny: (laughs) Thank You
WGC: So, When can we expect this new single?
Jonny: The single’s coming out by mid January on Viva Radio dot com.
WGC: That sounds kind of wishy washy, can we just say January 15th?
Jonny: Yeah, let’s say January 15th
You can get more of Jonny in pretty much every corner of the interweb, including:
Mishapes.com
streetboners.com
and, get ready for the new single Earthquake/Heartbreak on
viva radio sometime this month.

On Deck: Ghost Face Killa-GhostDeini The Great
Everyone knows that I name check Mr. Tony Starks among my favorite rappers whenever favorite rappers are discussed. I love all of his joints. Even when More Fish came out and people were talking shit, I still thought it was brilliant
Well, my brother bought me GhosDeini The Great for Christmas. It's a"best of", of sorts with 2 new tracks and an accompanying DVD. This Comp is haphazardly put together and a little fucking boring.
The bonus DVD depicts the before-and-during of a GFK live show, which would have been entertaining except said live show takes place in Orange County for a room full of the white and brown backpackers that comprise the SoCal Indie Hip Hop Set; the most annoying of all regional Hip Hop sub-sects. Oh, and guess what, the pre-show rehearsal, which could have been the jewel of the live DVD was sans Ghost...He didn't show, leaving only footage of his goateed white boy temp. band. Yawnsville, population: Me
Of Course, track by track, Tony is still one of the most inventive, mystifying storytellers in the game. This is evident here in the track that inspired the title of worst Wu-related release in years, check it...
Ghost Deini - Ghostface Killah feat. Superb

ON DECK: Dert-Talk Strange
"Take Your Brain On Space-Walks, Talk Strange Like Björk"-Rza
I’m a fan of concept albums, rock operas, themed restaurants, and this sorta thing. It creates a point of reference with which you relate the other points and details of the experience.
I like it even more when this theme of themes is applied to a beat tape by L.A.’s emerging king of the concept, Dert. In past years Dert has given us Dert Floyd: The West Side of the Moon, poking around in the obstacle course that is Roger Waters’ head and making it Hip Hoppable.
This time he confronts your ex-girlfriend’s fucking favorite, the incomparable Bjork. Bjork, who as leader of The Sugarcubes, incidentally comprised 1/3 of the bill at my very first show with my then BFF Nate Gardner in the infancy of the 1990s. Bjork is always a point of nostalgia for me and this is probably the singular reason I haven’t yet smacked the shit up out of her.
Dert’s Bjork inspired beats capture the whimsy and light tread of Iceland and stir them up with Dillaesque drums and lackadaisical melodies. The perfect beat tape to queue if you’re sippin that sticky shit…if we did that out here in L.A.
The best part about these 18 Sunday afternoon bangers are that they are free. Download this shit here and pop it in on your way home from The Do-Over, perfecto.
