Pretty good start, IMHO. Any additions will be taken into great consideration because I listen to the peeps. Especially in the anime region. The #1 seeds are set for the most part unless something glaring comes up, though.

So I know I bashed Kingdom Hearts 2 several times on this blog. Yet, I think I'm gonna knuckle up and get it. Yes, Beth I know that having Sepiroth on the same screen as Goofy is flat out wrong. but at the same time, I just saw it in action at Gamestop and...it looks rather good. Word of mouth from the people there (yes, not only am I friends with the comic book store peeps but the game store geeks, too) has been awesome for both import and domestic. Not only that, the soundtrack is rather kickass (mmm, Hikaru Utada) and it's got Stitch! STITCH. That's all I needed to hear. That and look at this:

My god...I am a tool for the EASquareEnixUberConglomaratti. And that song kicks ass. I will admit, seeing Mickey Mouse with a weapon is rather surreal. I can get past it, I hope.

Anyway, where's Ja? You know, everyone has negative things to say about Ja Rule but you know what? That man had a formula. He stuck to it and was arguably the biggest star in hip-hop AND R&B because he wrote songs for Mary J. Blige, J-Lo, Christina Milian and Ashanti. He was like Nelly mixed with Diddy mixed with R. Kelly. Those three names make me want to kick a drug-sniffing dog in the throat but in Ja, somehow it all made since and worked. When he rapped, he sucked. But when he growled/crooned/mumbled, it wasn't all that bad:

And for the few Black people that read, this remember one thing. 50 Cent's songs all sound like Ja Rule rehashes. After he spent over 2 years talking about how pop and 'unstreet' (thats not even a fucking word) Ja was, he releases 21 Questions, Magic Stick, Candy Shop, Disco Inferno, and Just A Little Bit. All with sung hooks and all pop staples. At least Ja knew what he was and looked like a cooler animal (Ja looks like an ottsel, compared to 50 who looks like a rejected stuntman from Congo and King Kong) to boot.

Speaking of black people....you have sunk to a new level of ignorance. Seriously. Yesterday during a phone interview, I peered over at the TV (which had the sound off) and saw a commerical on BET. First off, I was pissed I left the TV on BET, but I couldn't find the remote so I just let it slide. However, after peering at the screen, I saw a commercial for College Hill which I guess is BET's version of the Real World. You know, after the Viacom buyout, it's hard to tell where MTV ends and BET begins. Anyway, all I could make out was that two females were having an argument, which isn't hard to imagane because women hate eachother. The episode looked to be based on one of these females being 'bousigie' and the other being 'hood'. How do I know? Because on the screen it said 'Bouisgie vs. Hood' so I'm sure that's a correct assuption.

So, back to my point: is that still the case? If a black person uses complete sentences and doesn't begin each joke with 'Women be shoppin!' they are uppity? I really thought we were past that, but it is obvious that either we are not or Viacom is not. I honestly think BOTH, but what do I know I'm a fucking uppity negro. You know, seeing as I have had my blackness question by a Korean, a Mexican and a mulatto (is that what they are called now?) I believe that maybe the problem is with me. When other race are wondering if I'm keeping it real, maybe I'm not. Guess I should change my name to Duece Stacks and yell 'Countin' these rocks, BEE-ATCH!' and 'ERY BODY IN THE CLUB GET TIPSY!' all the time. Nah, at least some people agree with me. The sad part is that as much as I am jaded and irritated by my own race, white people are even worse. After the Albertson's incident where some dude mistook me for a fucking cart pusher because I was helping an older woman (who happened to be white and actually said 'What the hell is his problem?' That was PRICELESS) with her cart, ya'll are on ground zero with me as well.

The point of that bitch session? Love black people, love white people. Even love 'niggas' and 'rednecks'. I HATE ignorance. And that, peeps is what's spreading.

One of the few times Chris Rock was funny. This and Pootie Tang.

Man, I need something to calm me down. Oh, so FHM (does anyone even still READ those magazines anymore?) had their 100 Sexiest Women and no suprise in Scarlett Johansson topping the list.

I honestly would have figured that Angelina Jolie would have been it, but once you let Brad Pitt hit it, you officially become unattainable, I guess. Scarlett said the nay-no to manogomy, so we all have a shot. Hell, Bencio Del Toro hit it and he looks like a drunken Armenian porn-peddler that hasn't bathed since the wall fell. I guess getting felt up does wonders for your career. Ask Paula Jones. ZING!

So I guess the love affair with Jessica Alba is still going.

In a way, I figured she would go the way of Lindsay Lohan once people found out she couldnt act. Yet, she's number three on this bullshit list (WHERE IN THE HELL IS SHAKIRA?!) and I guess is making movies. Jenny McCarthy is on there, and the last thing of importance she ever did was shut the hell up and make a baby so that's not saying much. All that being said, Jessica is still saucy, but neither her or Scarlett are Jackie Guerrido.

Hmmmm. That's all I got, peeps. Check out the Shadow the Hedgehog remix of Tripod baby while I watch that again.

Oh, you're back....um...need more time....dammit.

So, I got my Heartsdales Ultra Foxy CD yesterday and it's a lot better than the last one. Less weird rapping and more 80's pop/breakbeat/house music. It's a different feel, or maybe the same because I only have one other one and the songs I downloaded to base my theory off of. Anyway, I likes it a lot even though it ain't up there with M-Flo's or Bennie K's last albums. Or look as good as the now legal BoA (creepy old dude on Family Guy moan).

They still had the fox tails on in the cd liner and that is good stuff. No mingers wearing tails and ears!

Whoa, that was a long ass post. Why, you ask? Tomorrow, the update may be 3 sentences long. I will drop some stuff on you after I see Thank You For Smoking. Until then, feel free to send suggestions for the Darth Vader competition. Stay up peeps.

Chachi out.
