enjoy your genocide-laced turkey dinners, heathens!
happy friday, yall!
i was in the car with my homie today when Mary Mary’s ‘God in Me’ came on. i started bankhead bouncin inside myself cause i forgot how much i loved this song. it definitely knocks! (do ppl still say that?)
the bad thing is that it may knock (if people still say that) a little too much. i have this condition where when i hear a good beat, my back involuntarily arches & my hips start rolling without my consent. that’s not exactly the behavior you want to be exhibiting when listening to a gospel song, im sure. im not well versed in the Bible, but i don’t recall reading ‘Thou shalt backeth that ass up all the way to thine zipper’ anywhere. correct me if i’m wrong tho.
anyway. enjoy the song & enjoy ur weekends 
it took 12 years, but here we go again! ridiculous moments in r & b part deux! in no particular order, the winners are:
1. Who let your drunk uncles in the studio?? i have no idea how ‘Float On’ by the Floaters came about, but i’m guessing it went something like this:
Larry: ay! ay yall, this where my nephew Ronnie J come in here and do his music shit at…i think he got some beer in a fridge here somewhere down here since Paul done drank up all the everythang.
Paul: you cain’t put that on me, man! you know i don’t drink no beer if it ain’t malted anyway, you hear me??! *pimp runs around the room*
Charles: WHERE THE ‘YAC AT??!
Ralph: shut up, fool! hey Larry, what you say Ronnie ‘nem do in here? music? aw, shit, we could do that! we can make somethin for the ladies, man!
Charles: AIN’T NO MAD DOG OR NOTHIN IN HERE, MAN!
Larry: yeah! say, man, that ain’t a bad idea! there’s this redbone that work at the Snackin Shack i been tryin to get at for the longest!
Ralph: awwww yeah! i’ma get on that microphone, talkin bout some “I’M A SCORPIO! DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEAN, GIRL??!” *inappropriate hip gyration*
Charles: THIS SOME BULLSHIT!!!
gotta hand it to em though. the foot action is *crazy* and this song is better than ANYTHING that trey songz will ever do in the history of his life.
okay, some background to this video. obviously lizards can’t talk. and obviously this is not a real lizard. the audio is real though; it’s apparently somebody trippin all over himself on acid and just talking completely crazy. i find this to be excruciatingly hilarious.
this guy thinks he’s Captain Knots. thinks he’s Captain Tyin-Knots.
who’s this guy, Mr. Balloons. Mr. Balloon Hands, over here.
HILARIOUS!
hi, all!
sorry for the lag in updates lately 
im not being a wishy-washy jerk this time, i promise. updates will be scarce this month because i’m participating in National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), which is really, really cool. if you’ve never heard of it before, or have heard of it and just didn’t know what it is, it’s a program/organization/what have you that helps you write a 50,000 word first draft of a novel in 30 days, over the entire month of november. that involves writing at LEAST 1,667 words each and every day. after doing that, the last thing i want to do most times is hop on the interwebs and write about weaves and bad mullets and shit. nothing personal though :/
i did NaNoWriMo in 2005 (i think?) too, so in approx. 24 days, i will have not one, but two shitty novels catching dust in my bedroom. joy! THEN i’ll be able to stop being grossly negligent here. there will be sporadic entries, probably, but bigguns like ridiculous moments in r&b pt. 2 prolly won’t come til december
as a peace offering, i offer you this: i short youtube video entitled “NFL Booty Poppin.” i don’t know about you but this made me extremely happy somehow.
forgive me?? k thanks!!

so i was up late for video surfing at youtube for no real reason at all last night. while searching for Boyz II Men’s acapella version of ‘can you stand the rain‘ i came across some pretty cool stuff! these are essentiallyglee club-style renditions of some good classics. warning: the audiences are annoying and the sound aint so great.
here’s a nintendo acapella, complete with interpretive dance:
a Nickelodeon medley(whatchall know about The Beets??):
‘thriller,’ also with interpretive dance:
outkast’s ‘the way you move.’ i will admit to doing my own interpretive dance to this:
& this is my fave of the day, largely because of the singer’s fro and because whoever did this arrangement knows enough abt music to be able to link curtis mayfield’s ‘move on up‘ and kanye’s ‘ touch the sky:’
shout out to ‘glee‘ for makin this shit cool again.
i dont think ive laughed this hard at a random snl skit since the pizzeria uno’s pepper joint with bobby moynihan. this is HILARIOUS. jason sudeikis poplockin in the background? the host’s inability to not sing while the biologist is talkin? jason slowin the poplockin down at the end for the sexicutioner? peekaboo street??!! I CANT TAKE IT!!! lol!
here’s the vid that’s on youtube but itll be taken down soon so here’s the hulu link, too.
bravo, keenan. you are a weird motherfucker, and i appreciate that.
i really do. i think she’s got a great voice. but wtf was goin on in her life when this happened?
good thing she was singin this in a church cause it sounds like sister was in great need of some blessing. its like she just learned the song 15 mintues before she went to sing it. i have a feeling that the pianist kicked in not for effect, but to help her find the melody.
but, still nowhere as bad as o-mazing grace. she at least knew the words!
so this year’s ‘dancing with the stars’ lineup was announced and i kinda scratched my head at it. i dont really watch the show, but i know enough about it to think that there may be something a little fishy about mya being in this season’s cast.
the girl’s a professional dancer! right?? that’s her thing. is that fair to the other contestants, who include a snowboarder, a huge champion mma fighter, a teenage witch and a pair of teeth with legs? hardly seems fair, no? they dont mention mya’s training as a dancer on their page. conspiracy? cahoots? it makes one scratch the chin!
everybody seems to be more surprised by former house majority leader tom delay’s inclusion in the cast, but let me tell you what. he just may be the one to watch for, because david gregory showed us all on the Today show that fuddy duddies in starched suits can get DOWN with they bad selfs! matter fact, they should have put *him* in the cast. id watch every show, faithfully.
okay so yall remember when shakira could dance?
turns out that was all just lies and propaganda. or maybe we just assumed that all the hip rolling and shaking stuff she did meant that if she ever had to do any other dancing, she’d be good at it.
well. i just watch what i think is her latest video, ’she wolf,’ and…
before i continue with my hate, let me point out the great things about this video. she looks GREAT. and the stuff in the cage (for the most part)? very sexy. okay, that’s all the good there is.
she looks INSANE!! lol! did someone choreograph this?? like take time to actually map out and time these moves? i think maybe she just had everybody so fooled by the hip action that they were like ‘okay so for this video, we’re gonna have shakira dancing. that’s pretty much it, she’s just gonna dance. maybe we should get a choreographer? nah, she’s shakira! she can dance! we’ll just let her wing it!’ and this is what they got. now ive taken the liberty to point out some of her best moves.
at around the 0:35 mark, we get a good 5 seconds of the Vagina Slice
at 0:55 we get some kind of bizarro crazy modified version of crumping
we get a little more at 1:12
2:48 gives us some kind of weird arm action that i cant even think of an inventive name for
and as a big finale we’re treated to some batshit interpretive dance of some sort.
…if i ever walk in a club and catch one of yall dancin like this, ima whoop your ENTIRE ass. promise.
oh and also the song is ass. what’s with the tired little ‘awoooooooo’ wolf noise? lol. shakira, i hereby sentence you to a nap in hopes that you’ll wake up with some good sense.
