Stick and Move

"I'm goan keep dippin'/i'm goan keep switchin' lanes/i'm goan keep ridin'/and you know ain't a damn thing changed/you pop lock/we pop glocks/i just came to have some fun/and get drunk in the club/i came to party/born and raised/that's why i love LA" - Knoc-turnal, Love LA (The Way I Am) It's not just me, right? This album cover does look like Janet Jackson's nipple accessory. This notion that you've got to be "connected" at all times is just plain crazy and other words to live by for time-challenged folks like myself. Darby Conley's an NPR nerd. I love it. Tom's right. Even though everybody likes to say "fuck" all the time, the dialogue on Deadwood is taut and enjoyable. I know I have no cool chips with which to say anything because I'm loving Britney Spears' Toxic right now but are people really digging that Mario Winans track that has a weak vocal performance over the nice Fugees sample? Why not just break out that old Fugees record. It's still hot. I've been humming How Many Mics on the daily. And, finally, it's a good week to go to the record store. While you're picking up Usher and N.E.R.D. might you consider picking up Jem's first full length and Knoc-turnal's new release? Headz of all kinds are likely to sleep on both of these.
