It Has So Been...Re-Broughted?

Good day, mates! So I have not received my Bennie K or Kumi Koda shipment yet. I am kind of mad about that because I have been holding off downloading both albums so I could be surprised. How long can one man go without his Yuki before he snaps? Sweet, sweet Yuki. My love for thee flows like sake on Fridays. So speaking of music, what was the last good album to come out? It has really been slim pickings this year. There have been a few good SONGS but no good albums. Anyone else notice that the year LL Cool J releases an album a war breaks out? I’m just saying that niggas album brings trouble to us all. He needs to be stopped! That and he sucks, that doesn’t help his cause any.

You know what I should do? Start a pop/rock band. Like Fallout Boy or My Chemical Romance but GOOD. The songs write themselves (in the case of Fallout Boy, I don’t think they have songs as much as they have words that go in a cadence of some sort. Holy shit, their songs kind of suck it hard) and your musical skills have to minimal at best to be even marginally successful. Just look at Bowling For Soup. Just have to get a catchy hook and maybe a pointless ass video and I am in there. If anyone has any real talent let me know. I guess I could have an open audition that, always brings the freaks out. Same as usual, Passion of Chachi is an Equal Opportunity Employer blah blah blah yakkity smackity.

So I got into a discussion about who is better: Rain (Bi) or Se7en. For those that don’t know who they are, you are an idiot because Se7en kicks the ass (Now that he reportedly aint dating my woman no more) and Rain has his moments of total awesomeness. They are Korean pop stars that I like to listen to (I dug Se7en already but I had no idea Rain was who he was until someone pointed him out because it just said ‘Bi’ and I had no idea what the fuck that meant in Japanese. Because it isn’t. And knowing is half the battle, peeps) and I guess are having an Usher vs. Justin Timberlake like battle for hip-pop supremacy. We don’t see enough of that in my opinion.

Well, let me give you an idea of the two styles and then make your own choice. Think of it as a Backstreet Boys (a little more mainstream and VH1 worthy, think Millennium and Black and Blue) for Rain and N’SYNC (a more poppy dance sound with a twist of hip hop, more for the teen crowd. Think Celebrity and Justin Timberlake’s solo album) for Se7en’s style. Take gander and lend an ear.

Here is Rain's Free Way

And this is Se7en's Passion (HELLS YEAH!!)

After a little investigation (And some of that ‘getting down to the beat’ the kids talk about. Holy shit, Free Way by Rain kicks the ass. That is a groove-worthy track) I have to say it is about preference. Depending on my mood, either I prefer a hip hop sound (on the bus or driving on the highway during the day, in which Se7en wins hands down. Check out the Passion Tipsy Remix and you will see what I mean) or whether I am in a relaxed mood (when I am driving in the evening or just sitting at home, it’s pretty much Rain and DJ Quik) and want to groove. Long story short, both are good and worth a listen.

So I watched Bring It On: All Or Nothing last night because I am a fucking dumbass. And although I only watched 7 minutes without the sound while dozing off I can say something about this movie. It was SHIT. Don’t know any of the dialog so I created my own. And it was STILL shit. I can say that Hayden Panterriere needs to be legal right now because my GOD.

I am going to hell for this one, there is no way around it. She is beautiful. Not hot, not saucy. She is beautiful like Sowelu or Kate Winslet, just naturally pretty. Too bad she hangs out with Paris Hilton because at this rate she will catch the Gonosyphillis by 19 hanging out with that dumb bitch. Run, Hayden!

Alright, my battery is running low so I am going to head out. I will try to get something up tomorrow, too. Friday is Sake and Gelato so I will update Saturday or Sunday instead. Until then stay up, peeps.

Live, Laugh and Love.
