Creedence Clearwater..........Who'll Stop The Rain

I fell in love with this song thanks to "Married With Children"....Al Bundy sang this song for most of the episode, and it was one of the few episodes in which he wanted to sex up the uber sexy Peggy Bundy......ahhh, good times.....good times!

Visual Orgasm for today..........Daft Punk- Technologic

My ear is so diversed.........and I looooooove it. As I'm typing away this early morning, I am listening to Californication (SICK ALBUM), and thinking of a video to describe my sanity lately. The first image is of words popping up showing my thoughts....what better video than the skinless Chucky doll, thought provoking Technologic by the mega-group DAFT PUNK (hold your applause till the vid is finished)...

BoNkErS.................A Great Cartoon That Just Went Too Early...sob..

Every now and then, I think about what today's kids are missing......and I think back to a childhood of playing tag, man-hunt and cartoons that were....funny...anyway, heeeeeere's BONKERS!

JCVD..................A Movie You WANT To See.......Trust Me!

So last night, Bev sends me the link for a very interesting movie trailer starring the "Muscles from Brussels" himself, Jean-Claude Van Damme.....As you know, we love creativity and this movie screams of it....The funny thing is that it's already out (no marketing though)...It was screened at the 2008 Rome Film Festival (L'Altro Cinema) and the 2008 Toronto International Film Festival (Midnight Madness) and I think it's definately a good look for JCVD.....enjoy the trailer!

Check Out The Trailer HERE

Merz- Lotus............sob at the Creativity....SiCkNeSs!

A great song by an incredible artist. It took me a while to get this video, but if you listen to the words as you watch it......timeless. If you still can't get it, here are the lyrics that helped me:

"we sit in cars
we sit in planes
you're dead right
for me

you're dead right
you're always right
you're on the right
side of me"

The Joker.............First Person To Make It Rain.....Lisssstennn (Forgive Me For That)

I love being me.....seriously....the fact that I have this sleeping disorder, and I can write for hours and think non-stop without any need for rest leads to quirky post like this one......enjoy the video, the point I am trying to make and the Prince track that hasn't been pulled off of the net (yet)....late!

Pet Shop Boys- West End Girl...........I Will Forever Love This!

This is what happens when a great song is mixed with a wonderful artistic vision. This video has all the art and fashion we still crave......I'll never do the skinny jeans thing, but I think you understand......late!

Grand Puba - 360 (What Goes Around).........SICKNESS!

I'm not posting this with any extra added to my reasoning.......it's just a very SICK track and one of my favorites......calm down, and enjoy!

Visually Bloggable (shouts to the homey Yellow Rebel On That One): Perfect Strangers!

I've been running insane lately and it seems like technology has been againts Lucky these last couple of days.......anyways, I will update you all on the events I've been attending (including the Haitian err West Indian Day Parade in Brooklyn)....and of course, the best art and fashion you can feast your eyes upon.....in between time, enjoy one of my favs from back in the day ("when I was young...I'm not a kid anymore"....sorry, couldn't help it)

Daft Punk.........Interstella 5555 (I'm In That Mood Today)

This is an incredible work of art.......released in 2003, this film is basically the album "Discovery" (By Daft Punk) come to life...The film was produced by the creators of the Discovery album, along with Toei Animation, under the supervision of Leiji Matsumoto...In it, you'll hear classics like "One More Time" (which has somehow become the Playboy Mansion Anthem), and "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger"..I've always loved this, and I feel that I went on such a fashion overload this week, I must give you something else from my medulla luckygotta.....enjoy!

Lucky aka the "Rock Lee" of this ish!
(There is no mind like mine)

Allison Reynolds...........My Ideal Woman!

My ideal woman is Allison Reynolds. A free spirit who views the world from a prism rather than binoculars. She observes from different angles and is quiet enough to appear invisible, yet boisterous enough to get your attention. I love Allison Reynolds and in my opinion the most beautiful fusion of a womans mind should be Allison Reynolds meets Sidney Shaw.....One can only dream...to those of you who refuse to be yourselves and live "your" life, Allison has something to tell you:

Strange Wilderness........"You Say Dick, I Come Runnin"...LoL

I love this movie........some of my favorites are in it, including Steve Zahn (his facial expressions are the best)

Finally.............Classic Commercial!

As many of you know by now, I'm a weirdo....different taste in music, style and so on (never follow trends, because I might clip your heels)...well, guess what I finally found!

Chromeo- Mammas Boy (You Freudian Psychopaths Are Loving This)

This is a siiiiick video (in a good way I mean), but I know this will be discussed for some time in Psychology classes all over the United States and even beyond....shouts to Chromeo for giving the people Art in more ways than one...oh for those of you who don't know what I'm talking about....listen to the song, again, and look up "Oedipus Complex"....if you still don't get it, I feel sorry for you!

Lucky is still Time Traveling..............I Loved this show!

This was a personal favorite for me.....I don't care what anyone else says, this show was funny and it even dealt with real life issues like drug use, and steroids.....a funny show!

50 Shots Mean Nothing In A Court Of Law........

Officers of the NYPD are issued a 9mm Service pistol that fires in DAO (Double Action Only). Currently authorized pistols for new officers to select from include the SIG P226 (DAO), Smith & Wesson 5946 (DAO), and Glock 19 (All modified to a nominal 12 pound trigger pull). Senior officers who joined prior to 1993 are still authorized to carry Smith & Wesson Model 64 .38 Special Revolvers. Now during the Sean Bell incident, five of the seven officers investigating the club were involved in the shooting. Detective Paul Headley fired one round, Officer Michael Carey fired three, Officer Marc Cooper fired four, Officer Gescard Isnora fired eleven, and veteran officer Michael Oliver emptied two full magazines, firing 31 shots from a 9mm handgun and pausing to reload at least once.....Now I want you to read all that over again, and imagine all of these shots coming at you without returning fire....Have any of you seen a UC before....they're UNDERCOVER COPS...who is going to think of a gang of men (A gang is a group of individuals that share a common identity, even if that identity consists of little more than their association with one another. In early English usage, it referred to a group of workmen, and later underwent pejoration. ...) None of this was used in the case.....apparently the prosecution thought everything was cut and dry (I've seen this sort of bullshit happen too much)....Witness testimony not coinciding hurt, but lets think about it...OVER 50 SHOTS FIRED, AND NO RETURN BULLETS AT THE OFFICERS???....at least give them some time!

Now I've been scratching my head over this one and trying not to break into the race issue because of the color of the defense, but what happened to the issue of classism. Classism which is the systematic oppression of poor people and people who work for wages by those who have access to control of the necessary resources by which other people make their living. Classism is also held in place by a system of beliefs which ranks people according to economic status, "breeding," job and level of education. Classism says that upper class people are smarter and more articulate than working class and poor people. It is a way of keeping people down, and I refuse to dance around the "Give a nigga a Badge" theory.....some of you are scratching your nogs, but think about this; Are you usually backed into a corner by a white police officer, or a colored officer being accompanied by a white officer?.....Some say the race thing is too much Lucky, but I can't help it. we live in a society so blinded by it that you can't help it. A man that was tested to be drunk (after the fact) is in a verbal disagreement with a gang of men brandishing weapons, and you think he knows??? Now you give a black man a badge and you end up with this:



Don't get mad because I'm giving it to you in two ways. Yes, I disagree with the verdict, but No I will not join your fight....Now from the stands, I see all this going on and I refuse to join the "Wear Black" revolution or the "Fight the Power" cause on this one....I urge you all to do what they truly fear....Succeed. We are the last of a dying breed....Educated, Beautiful and full of Energy. Sean Bell was a star high school pitcher who only stopped playing to support his pregnant girlfriend.....I refuse to put on the militant gear of the past (wearing all black), and don the helmet of tomorrow (a graduation cap) because this can't be real.....A man cannot leave his house getting ready to say two of the most beautiful words he can say to a woman and have his life taken from him and nothing is done.....For those of you sending those text messages.....lets stop and think of something beyond the militant thoughts of revolution through protest and plotting to kill officers (I know you read that article as well).....Let's hit them where it hurts....Lets become what the they're not used to seeing.....lets step out of our class and create something new.....lets succeed and together we can create a world suitable for the likes of Sean's daughter, and for our future....



Lucky!

"Talk about the hurting".................LoL, this has become a classic movie clip!

For those of you who have the pleasure of knowing me personally (LoL....inside joke), you know that Lucky is a film fanatic (my dvd collection is stronger by the day). My collection is incredibly diverse.....I love wonderful classics such as "A clockwork Orange", to cult favorites such like "Super Fly".....I love my "White Humor" such as "Old School" and "Wedding Crashers"......."Superbad" and "Eurotrip" are two of my favs.....Below is one of the funniest scenes in "Superbad" (sad thing is I've known the words to this song for the longest too), and the original by The Guess Who:

Evan singing "These Eyes"

The Guess Who "These Eyes" (1969)

Adidas Originals..................Left, Right Project.

I first heard of this film project from Josh Spear, and I figured it would definately gain a cult following for a few reasons. The first being that the world is more art/ fashion concious now more than anything....and two, they're ADIDAS!

"Adidas Originals just updated a new Internet film on its recently updated website. Tilted the Left-Right Project, 3-minute clip documented an interesting challenge from adidas. First, adidas constructed 2 giant adidas Superstar models. Then, the company recruited 2 of the top artistic talents - Surface 2 Air from New York as representation for the East Coast (a.k.a. Left) and Upper Playground of San Francisco as representation for the West Coast (a.k.a. Right). The 2 teams had task of decorating both and finish at a set time. Check out the result of this friendly rivalry on the YouTube clip above." (Words from Freshness)

Lupe Fiasco.............Paris, Tokyo (FINALLY)

I'm sorry if I'm the last person who is posting this, but I needed a clear enough video......I don't care what Lupe says, but this reminds me so much of a track that "ATCQ" would've pieced together.....he is not biting however...lets say this one is a tribute!

If this is real................then he is truly stupid (still a sick video, but stupid)

So last night, I'm with the brothas and we're playing Spades (my game was off last night honestly)and watching NBA on TNT, and this spot came on. At first, we all were thinking that the Laker staff/ hierarchy never saw this and that Kobe is a damned fool, but then we thought "this can't be real"...."why would he jeopardize the Playoffs like this?" and of course "he's about to lose some money, and get suspended off of this one".....you know what? you watch it and judge for yourself!
