Diamonds in the back... sunroof top... diggin' the scene with the gangsta' lean with it, rock with it, lean with it...
It’s that time of year again. While all of my loyal readers know how I feel about the holidays and their dirty origins, you all also know that your boy Q is a bit mushy at times. So the fence sitting continues as I join the masses in celebrating still being above ground. If you filled your gut with turkey parts this year, salute to you my friend. Enjoy, you’ve earned it. Just remember to give thanks and praises and everything will be everything. I’ll skip the usual evil history of the holidays post and give you a few reasons to smile this holiday weekend.
Word On The Street:
Comedy and Race in America at NPR - There are several ways to approach and play the race card as a professional comedian. I found this older NPR series featuring the topic of race in comedy, with interviews of Bernie Mac, Paul Rodriquez, and Margaret Cho, three people who have meltdowns on stage that are actually funny.
Side note to Cosmo Kramer… thanks for apologizing. Apology NOT accepted. The American Music Awards had its fair share of odd moments and highlights. Flavor Flav in a baby outfit hugging Jimmy Kimmel and the Snoop Dogg performance are the highlights, so far as I can tell. I don’t know, maybe I missed something but the show seemed slow.
CD REVIEW
Reyes Brothers - Ghetto Therapy (Latin Thug Records)
Latin Thug Records has released the long awaited collaboration between two icons of West Coast hip-hop. Send Dog of Cypress Hill and Mellow Man Ace are the Reyes Brothers, and their new album Ghetto Therapy aims to serve the rap world with a dose of their LA based G-Funk. The name isn't just a catchy title either, as the two are real life brothers.
