On The Road Again!

WHAT IS UP, PEEPS! It is Friday and I am on vacation! That means no driving to the demon's anus to go to the turd building. Those that know, look at it and tell me it DOESNT look like a turd.

In a new installment to the Chachi Top 20 Countdown, here are a few videos that didn’t make it on due to time or ain’t hit the rotation full blast yet. Here we have a few videos that are….

BUBBLIN’ UP!!!

First we have the new video from Nas. Yes, I can still tolerate Nas. I STILL rate him above Jay-Z because Nas never has a REALLY shitty song but rarely has mind-blowers. Jay-Z is either mind-blowing or crap. This video is bad ass and the song is actually a legit argument for the awkward state of hip-hop, which is stagnant.

Hip Hop Is Dead by Nas:

Good stuff.

Next we have Koda Kumi. Yes, I know my love affair with her has ended after the bottle rape that was Cherry Girl but this song rules. I guess it’s a theme from Amazing Nuts, an anime that actually looks pretty good. Check it out, it may be on the Top 20 soon.

Twinkle by Koda Kumi:

If anyone knows anything about Amazing Nuts, let me know. Get your minds out of the gutter, peeps!

Finally we have the newest video from Ludacris. Now I have a weird dynamic with this dude. I even remember Incognegro (yes…you read that right) and always thought that he was pretty good, but just made some shitty songs. Money Maker PISSED ME OFF TO NO END and Grew Up 2 Screw Up had Young Jeezy so it ruled all so I was bugging about buying his latest album. However, it seems that hip hop CAN be Shakespear because Runaway Love isn’t bad. Its not a forced song with a message but luckily there are no Phantom’s or Grillz so it is okay by me. That and Mary J. Blige doesn’t make me want to beat a kitten anymore.

Runaway Love by Ludacris feat. Mary J Blige:


Keep an eye out, peeps. Now, time to begin the…

CHACHI’S TOP 20 COUNTDOWN!!

Lets start with a new entry…
20. May J feat. VERBAL – Here We Go (New Entry)

So we begin with May J. If you haven’t heard ofher…join the club. Up until about a month ago, I had no idea who in the hell she was. Now I a know and…is niiiiice. Not only that, VERBAL is back on the scene! What is he now, 35? Eh, still a nice song. Even the dancing aint too bad.
19. Bennie K feat. Tsuyoshi – Rensou Game (Last Week # 17)
Alas, Rensou Game is almost out of here. To make me feel better, the ladies of Bennie K have release a remake of The Rolling Stones ‘Satisfaction’ as a B-side to Joy Trip. It actually KICKS ASS!
18. Yui – Rolling Star (New Entry)

So…I’d hit that. I don’t know WHY, but Yui has the whole Michelle Branch thing going for her. Something about a woman with an acoustic guitar makes me happy in pants. Not oly that, Yui is actually pretty talented. And if you have seen her MTV Diary (yes, MTV Japan has shitty shows, too) she is actually kind of…well sexy. Never thought I’d say THAT. Oh, and she is in a movie too. Just downloaded it, I will tell you how it is next week.
17. Young Jeezy – I Love It (Last Week #20)
I am actually heading out right now to get this CD. If Young Jeezy puts in a little more work (and gets past the whole ‘Snowman’ thing) he could be the next Scarface. He actually has that much talent. Let’s get it!
16. UVERworld - Shamrock (Last Week #12, #1 for three weeks)

Man, this song has been on here FOREVER! And rightfully so because UVERworld RULES ALL! It is nice to see others understand the awesomeness that is the ‘World. Although the Bleach train is on full for on Cartoon Network (I called THAT SHIT six months ago) it will help them out a lot when the second season rolls around, odds are this spring/early summer. D-Technolife will BLOW AMERICA’S MIND when it hits. Even Orange Range is getting a boost in American popularity, and Asterisk isn’t even their best work. Could be a big year for UVERworld, and I cant wait.
15. RBD (Rebelde) – Ser o Parecer (Last Week #18)
Yeah, so the same thing for UVERworld goes for RBD as well. If you don’t like Rebelde they you are a FRICKING FOOL because aside from Diego, they are ‘teh awesome’. The video for this song is…out there but still it is pretty damn good. AND BUY THE ALBUM!!
14. Jay Z – Give Me What You Got (Last Week # 9, Plunge of the Week)
So Jay-Z begins a quick fall down the Countdown. It’s a shame too, I was expecting A LOT from Kingdom Come. ’Lost Ones’ is the new single and it isn’t bad.
13. Rain (Bi) – I’m Coming (Last Week # 15)

What more can I say about this guy. He finally cut his fucking hair (goddamn hippie!) and his music has changed, too. Oh, and pelvic thrusts. Can’t underestimate the effectiveness of pelvic thrusts.
12. Pushim, RHYMESTER, HOME MADE KAZOKU, MABOROSHI, May J – I Say Yeah (Last Week #13)
So this song has thouraglly grown on me. I kind of liked it at first, now it is completely awesome. I even had to make a new Duece Mix because of it. That and May J has taken over the space in my heart reserved for Kumi Koda. Yes…first Hayden now Ms. Koda is out of my life. I guess I’m growing up. Or finally abiding by the restraining order, one of the two.
11. Nelly Furtado – Say It Right (Last Week #14)
Okay, it seems that everyone loves this song. Although either Jen or I knew the words (Either you don’t…eat a scone? On a cone? Dogs like bones?) we still digs it. It is moving up rather quickly, too. We now enter the Top 10 and we begin with a falling artist…
10. JoJo – Too Little, Too Late (Last Week #7)

After a Top Five sting JoJo is slowly moving down. She premired a new video for How To Touch A Girl (O_o) and so we may see that on here. Or not, I don’t need jail time seeing as how often I talk about Hinoi Team. It is just….just not smart if you catch my drift.
9. Bowling For Soup – High School Never Ends (Last Week #11)
The truest song about life to ever be made since ‘Take This Job And Shove It’. Oh, and they finally are taking Val Kilmer to task for being gay. Seriously, peeps. We all saw Top Gun, or as I call it the first homoerotic blockbuster. He and Tom Cruise were this close to ‘going into the danger zone’ on screen. You know what I mean.
8. John Legend – Heaven (Last Week #10)
Slowly but surely, John Legend is making his ascent to the top. Save Room took 6 weeks to hit Number One, so it takes a minute. This song is now on rotation in the deck, I will let you know the good news later.
7. Game – Let’s Ride (Last Week #8)
The West Coast is BACK! Well, its pretty much just The Game and E-40 but still. It’s BACK! Oh, and Snoop Dogg’s old ass. Holy crap, it that really it from the West Coast? The Hyphy Movement lasted all of a FUCKING DAY and it kind of kicks ass. Man, hip hop works my nerves. Still, a great rolling track, although it is NINE FUCKING DEGREES all the time.
6. John Legend – Save Room (Last Week #5, #1 for five weeks)

The longest reigning Number 1 is STILL hanging on to the Top 10. Go buy John Legend’s album. It’s good stuff and let’s face it, you owe it to yourself. It’s got nice grooves and isn’t Paris Hilton’s album. And we ALL KNOW how awesomely shitty that piece of shit was.
5. Soul’d Out – Starlight Destiny (Last Week # 4)
I keep on hearing that Soul’d Out has a new single but I will believe it when I hear it. Until then, Soul’d Out moves down a spot but still stays in the Top 5.
4. Nelly Furtado – Maneater (Last Week #3)
Nelly Furtado drops one more spot after spending a FULL MONTH at #2. Any one noticed that Nelly has become a LOT better dancer since her last album? Before her dancing was like…well MINE after a few rum and cokes. Now she actually has rhythm. She is leaps and bounds ahead of Namie Amuro (I’m sorry, she looks robotic STILL) and Koda Kumi (Yes, she can dance but so can strippers. It isn’t the same, and it hurts me inside because Kumi and I had a thing) but she is still no BoA. Few things are, though. Mmmmm….BoA.
3. Bennie K – Joy Trip (Last Week #6)

HELLS YEAH! Bennie K moves into the Top 3 for the first time! My lady loves are fighting for the Top Spot! And my heart. On a bed with pillows. Wearing bare bellied Vick jerseys and pajama shorts. Yeah…touch her hair….HELLS YEAH. Oh yeah, Top Three and stuff. I need a minute. Watch the number two video.
2. Justin Timberlake feat. T.I. – My Love (Last Week # 2)

WHAT IN THE HELL! Oh, I’m back after cleaning up. SHUT UP, I spilled some RC cola, pervs! Anyway, J Tim (fuck, I hate that but it is catchy) and T.I. get held at #2 for the second straight week? What UBERawesome entity could hold the dynamic duo back TWO WEEKS IN A ROW?! You know who…
1. UVERworld - Kimi no Suki na Uta (Last Week #1, #1 for three weeks)

Yeah, you know it! UVERworld tops the Chachi Countdown for the THIRD week in a row, tying Shamrock. For those of you that don’t know, this is the song that plays on the MySpace page. This single debuted at #2 on the Oricon singles chart to Japan knows the real. UVERworld is tits, man. Tits.

Well, that is the Passion of Chachi Top 20 for this week! Tune in next week to see if UVERworld can make it one full month at #1! Or see if Justin and T.I. can take the Top Spot. Or will Bennie K turn this thing into a hootenanny and take the throne? Tune in next Friday, peeps!

Okay, I am fed up with Beyonce. Fine or not, get the fuck off my TV. Oh, and get a REAL acting job! What the fuck, do you always have to be a singer?! Show some GODDAMNED RANGE, WOMAN! Samuel L. Jackson may always be the same character, but that same character KICKS ASS! From what I can tell, the actress Beyonce has no character whatsoever. She's just...Beyonce. That aint enough. Peeps, dont see Dreamgirls. Please, you are just feeding ignorance.

Oh, and for the most important part of this day...

I GOT MY CAR BACK!!

Duece is back on the street! Sexy ladies in the house cover your ass! WHOOOO! Seriously, got my car back on Thursday and it looks as good as new! I have to get a new emblem but that is minor. I am back on the streets and loving it! I'll put some pictures up at some point of my baby. She's done me right and what did I do? Put her in the shop. Im sorry, baby. It wont happen again.

Well, I am out for now. I will be back sometime next week. Stay up, peeps.

Live, Laugh, Learn and Love.
