When did you first fall in love with hip hop?

This question came to my mind after listening to all the bullshit on the radio on the way home today..I found myself questioning the direction that hip hop has gone. We went from messages like Self Destruction, We're all in the same gang and The Message to shit like Tooted and Booted(sorry michelle LOL)..We went from lyrical skills to just fallin in love with the beat and ignoring the shit that was spilling out of rappers mouth...Have we become so brainwashed with shaking our asses and doing the 2 step that we don't care about what is being said?? Artists that rap about real shit are labeled as independent and underground and those that rap about the lifestyle they don't live make it to the top of the radio play list. When you watch 106&Park you'll see what I'm talking about, but if you watch VH1 Jamz or Soul you'll see what I grew up on which made me fall in love with Hip Hop and want to live, breath and eat that music..that type of music had me rewinding tapes constantly writing down the lyrics and rapping over the tracks. That type of music had me wanted to be a female DJ and had me scratching 45s with the little yellow thing in the middle mixing hip hop and r&b together..now DJs follow what's on the radio.
So think about it.. WHEN DID YOU FIRST FALL IN LOVE WITH HIP HOP..REAL HIP HOP??

Random Thought

Is it possible that one can be in a committed relationship and love that person, but love another too? Why did America make being in a committed and legal binding relationship with more than 1 partner illegal? Wasn't there polygamy in the bible?...our dollars say In God We Trust?? If we TRUST then why question, challenge or judge it? If people have an open relationship and its working for them who are we to say that what they are doing is wrong?? Just a random thought to make ya think....

JUST TIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man people sometimes get on my last damn nerves

always thinking what they got to offer is better than

what is already at hand

People try to make their plans sound better and then shit

just goes down hill from there.

How many times have I been out somewhere with a plan

in mind and then the shit gets redirected and then wtf

happens next is that I don't end up enjoying myself at all!!!!!! NEVER

So what now Do I continue to let people ruin my fun or

should I be real and tell them the shit they plan

IS SOME FREAKIN BULLSHIT and it never works out

SO STOP TRYING TO BE A FREAKIN PARTY PLANNER

If you want to plan some other shit PLAN IT and be on your

GOD DAMN WAY !

Man see now I know why there is only three people in the

SISTASNTHECITY picture FOR REAL !!

And why my phone dials some numbers on a consistent basis

I hate phony people trying to hang with the Crew but they really

just don't belong unless oh let's go to the club!!

Since your so overtop and rich can you come up with anything better besides

going to club CAN SOME PEOPLE USE THEIR FREAKIN MINDS

and come up with better options besides going to the club ???

Beeotch if you dont call me why you hanging out on special events for my girls bday

Who cares if people get their feelings hurt thats what real friends do tell the truth

So What's the problem in speaking up telling people

I dont need your suggestions

I dont need your help because everytime we follow your lead it's BULLSHIT !!

Man if I end up on a vacation and have a bad time ill probably be losing some friends

as well wtf does it matter no one calls or visits me anyway except for my sistas

So I guess it wont be a loss right right!

Speaking the truth !!!!!!

Eye Candy#25

I happened to stumble upon this eyelicious cutie while searching my gossip sites. His name is Christian Keyes and he is a singer, actor and model...talk about a triple threat. He has been in a couple Tyler Perry movies and was labeled one of Ebony magazine's 50 most eligible bachelors in the country and looking at these pictures how he's still single is a mystery to me! Ladies don't drool too much while looking at the pictures!!GOOD LAWD!!
Thank you LAWD for blessing the Earth and our eyes with this beautiful creature that you created.

Oh My The Pecker Wins !!

Oh my so my close friend for years called me
and told me a lil story
He's confused about what he should do about his living situation
It may be a little difficult in this case
So my friend we'll call him drama because that's
all I hear from him, his life is really like a box of chocolates
So he went out of town to visit his family and left his partner
at home which he has a good understanding with
But man did she surprise his ass when he got back
She told him I know what you been doing for the last year!
I had an attitude with you because I have been listening to
your voicemail messages for over a year now !! WTF !!
I couldn't believe she was capable of listening to his messages
for a year and hold all that shit in for that long with no reaction
I know all this mans business and I'm like whoa she may be a little
crazy you better watch out for her man for real !
So now she is asking him is he still moving in with her
Now men would you now take that step moving in with this broad
or would you think she just loves you so much that all the escapades
and everything she heard over the messages wouldn't be hung over your
head once you moved in ? Since she knows you were doing your thing and
now claims to except what you bring to the table would you feel safe at night?
Could you really trust a woman that was able to be nonchalant for over a year
no reactions to your escapades until she heard one girls message that was like
Ok I have to tell him that I know what's he's been doing for the last year but she was
worried about how mad he would be and if he would stop talking to her
SHE ALREADY WORRIED ABOUT THE WRONG THING !!!
My reaction would have been yo look your not the man I thought you were and
I'm out this Beeotch Mister adios see you later and hell naw your not moving in !
Go live your life with Mary, Sue, Heather , Kelly and Susan.
I know you can't blame him because she was digging and found what she wanted and
he told her what did you expect you find what your looking for when you search for it
whether it be good or bad but I'm pretty sure you were not searching for GOOD NEWS were you???
LMAO
So now she 's hurt crying like she should have kept her mouth shut
He's out the picture enjoying MARY SUE, HEATHER etc
He could be in the picture if he choose to be because she still wants him back !
I thought coon had the power but in this case I think the pecker wins LOL

Family

Today is a day of relief
Just to love and live life to the fullest
Don't let life situations get the best of you
God only gives you things that he knows you can
conquer
Appreciate the things you do have and don't worry about
the things you don't
Easier said than done I know
But I fell victim to being negative but then I realized that won't help me out
So I look to God for a positive resolution and from here on out I've
been living life with no stress REALLY
I have my sistas and my family and friends and a roof over my head
I may not be rich but I'm rich in soul
Money is the root to all evil, Money must be used for Good !!
People kill to have money to buy materialistic things
I like to have money to eat and take care of my friends and family when they need it
It may be a little but my family can have all I got!
I had to take a step back and ponder on the things that make me happy and me
having the type of Family I have makes me happy.
Family will always come first Always
