crazy black folks


guilt at my blogospheric inadequacy and my tenuously binding resolution toward nicety in the new year have conspired to strangle my vision and recast me as a shiny little outlet for some items close to home. this time, i've summoned the wherewithal to announce that j boobs of southside seattle rap troupe subliminalz has himself a blog. so far he's posted up a promising sneak peak of a soon-to-be-released song from fellow rain city music merchant and sublimz affiliate young cel (it was between that and "amoeba steve") and a diatribe against speech impedimest (you don't really want them stray shots searchin you out, d supreme that boy who make up words in a drought) bill cosby (leaps of faith in this world of ours come with each day; why should i not, then, trust this sentence to stand as masonry against the steamy, cynical huffs and puffs of conventional decency so as to support 3 little parenthetical piggies?).

j boobs, less hazardously hailed as joey, probably won't deny that he's a crazy black person. crazy black people are entertaining to white people because, in large part, their culture sculpts their craziness so that it's manifested in a different way than ours. there's more to it in cases like joey's, though. when worldstar willy nillipedes wear out their welcome, a winnowing process selects naturally the most interesting of this set. conscientiousness of my lack of verbal finesse where racial commentary dilly dallies into relevance stays my hand and demands that i play the simple pass an makalelaydown the phrase "smart, crazy black people." joey's one of those. i shan't give him such uninformed musical credit in a time where carl icahn must needs tighten the belt, but in facets relevant to the condition i described above, i'd say "it's fair to say 'joey's like a northwest equivalent to ghostface or sean price'". canibus doesn't qualify, bytehdubya.

smart, crazy black people, baby.

i'm boring enough when i'm nice that i'm going to finish the conclusion to the book of chad in class over the course of the next few days. i think i started it before any of these crippling idealistic fancies became resolute, as it were.
