The Weekly Top Ten - July 11, 2008

Friday, July 11th, 2008

Senator Clay Davis

“I mean, this some shameful shit.” - Senator Clay Davis

That’s the best I can give in regards to my weekly “top tens” — being that the last one (and first one) took place over a month ago, all I can do is SMH (= shake my head for those who no speaky dee text message). But, no excuses…shall we get into it?

Made Me Everything I Am: Air Jordan

Michael Jordan/J.A.M.E.S. WATTS

“Could It Be I Stayed Away To Long?” - The Other Michael.

Yeah. It could be, and actually is. It’s a little too easy to believe that the kid hasn’t updated in a whole TWELVE days. In the new “blog era” of hip-hop, as it has been ridiculously affectionately named, that’s an eternity.

Granted, there’s a good excuse for said fuckery — as my beloved Macbook (despite its small screen and lack of dedicated video RAM) prepares for its Ebay-sponsored trip to God-knows-where, I’ve been without appropriate ‘net access. Nonetheless, we’re back on our job. In between prepping for the Knitting Factory show a week from this Tuesday, finally messing with VSTi’s (yes!) and listening to the new Gemstones mixtape (yikes!), I present (on the 23rd of June, coincidentally) the latest installment of “Made Me Everything I Am”.

Made Me Everything I Am: The Transformers

Transformers/J.A.M.E.S. WATTS

To my faithful, I apologize for the late post — between picking up eats for the evening and withstanding Jersey’s recent bout with the sweltering heat, the kid slipped up on his usual early afternoon posting session.

Nonetheless, I come with the second edition of the “Made Me Everything I Am” blog series; the first paid homage to New Jersey hip-hop legend Reggie Nobel. Today, I remove my hat in respect for the robots in disguise, the ones who waged their battle to destroy the evil forces of the Decepticons….and to protect the planet Earth. Uhh…well, actually, I’m paying respect to Megatron’s evil legion as well (yeah, they were pretty dope too), but who’s counting…
