Had to bust out the vinyl for the upcoming Aquanet 10-Year Reunion here in Boston. Let’s see what precious gems I have in my collection.
No one will ever forget the 1987 classic “Something Gonna Jump Out The Bushes!” by Nappy Brown. Dude’s fingernails are made out of magic.
For our Boston readers, this week marks the annual Together Festival. For most JTTS fans that doesn’t mean shit, but there’s def some acts worth checking.
Had a good Mother’s Day with mama ON&ON. She needed a new spring jacket, so I took her to Goodwill in Central Square. I copped her a Donna Karan lil sumthin for $7 and I was a hero.
We sat outside on a bench building, while watching three Central Square homeless drunks take turns falling in the middle of the sidewalk in front of horrified fgt M.I.T. professors.
We discussed the fact my mother is disgusted with the Cleveland Basement Rapist’s mom declaring that she is sorry, and suffering with everyone else involved in the tragedy. According to my mother, she is a filthy fraud of a person who ignores her role in creating a monster of a son due to the fact she was in relationships with abusive men, in turn, creating a strong resentment of women in her son, affecting his decision to keep three chicks locked in a basement for 10 years.
The 30 minute scooter ride with a dozen roses tucked in between my legs was worth it.
So I get back around the way, and decide to hit up Rusty’s Liquors on American Legion before I head home.
Coming out the exit, I see a chick in a Grey tricked out Civic driving erratically. I soon realize she’s trying to avoid a dude in a tricked out black Civic that’s on her tail. What seemed like slow-motion, dude violently smashes into her side. Boooom!
Immediately, dude jumps out the whip and starts screaming some Spanish shit at the chick while punching his car.
She jumps out her whip, and starts running towards the median. Lucky no other cars were around. Her right slipper fell off and the whole shit.
Dude starts chasing her…screaming.
I’m sitting on Bernie Rosenberg (my scooter) with a 6 pack of Natty Ice in the trunk watching on horrifically.
Dude stops chasing her and runs back to his damaged Civic.
“Fuck you, bitch! (SpanishSpanishSpanish)….Fuckin whore!”
He peels off, car badly damaged.
She is crying hysterically with one slipper on, and titties all desheviled…I woulda definitely hit.
She runs back to her whip, and gets on the phone.
By this time, I’ve rushed to the scene along with a black woman in her mid thirties (Anita Baker haircut), a 22 year old Puerto Rican Mc’donalds employee, and a drunk guy who just came from Rusty’s liquors.
Chick starts screaming on the phone.
“(SpanishSpanishSpanishSpanish)…..That’s IT my nigga…he fucked up! He fucked up my car!!!! (SpanishSpanishSpanishSpanish)….he wanted it to be over…fuck it my nigga, it’s over! That (Spanish SpanishSpanishSpanish)….is getting locked up! Fuck that! I’m tired of this domestic violence bullshit! (Spanishforthreeminutes)”
I approach the Mc’donalds kid, now nervously inhaling a Newport.
“You saw that shit?”
“Yeah, nigga…he pulled a knife on her and the whole shit!”
For the record, Puerto Rican’s say “nigga” more than black people. There’s an article in the Wall Street Journal, trust me.
So Mc’donald’s kid proceeds to tell me what he saw.
“They started beefin in line, so he hemmed her up…then she got loose, and my nigga pulled a knife out and shit…then she ran out and got in her ride, then he got a rock and threw it through her window, then she drove off, and he chased her, and rammed her.”
Then drove off.
Let’s review.
7PM. Light outside. In line at a Mc’donalds with customers and cameras. You black out to the point you hemm up a chick, flash a knife, chase someone, throw a rock in their window, and crash into their car….then drive off, as some fgt on a scooter watches the whole thing.
That, my friends, is the definition of a sociopath.
Me and Anita Baker approach the chick once she gets off the phone. She’s trembling. Traumatized. Lucky to be alive.
Titties lookin mad right.
Anita asks her if she’s ok, and embraces her.
She bursts out sobbing, pulls her hair, and falls to the ground.
I’m standing there with my dopey scooter helmet still on.
10 minutes later, a fire truck arrives, followed by an ambulance, followed by the reliable Boston Police…20 minutes later.
I’m prepared to stick around and snitch volunteer my witness account to the police, until 4 car loads of Puerto Ricans pull up to the scene….All in tricked out Civics.
She called the posse, and they are here. Justice will be served. That dude is food.
I returned to Bernie Rosenberg, and reflected on two moments of clarity I experienced this Mother’s Day.
God bless our precious mothers everywhere…and thank God I’m single.
From The Boston Globe:
This week’s lightning and rain has brought some relief, but Quincy residents worry that the drone of small planes flying overhead will soon return.
Residents say that since late April, they have suffered from the sound of low-flying planes, which are making continuous loops above their homes through the day and night. And government officials will not say who is flying the planes or why.
“It was every six minutes this loop would take, and it’s doing this arch,” said Michael Gundersen, who lives in Wollaston. “But when it’s doing a turn, it would get louder, every six minutes for hours on end.”
Gundersen said the sound started April 21 and has been practically continuous.
“The noise was just — at some points, it was unbearable,” he said.
The Federal Aviation Administration’s Facebook page has been overflowing with comments from frustrated residents, and local officials have been receiving phone calls and e-mails reporting the noise.
Those in the know remain tight-lipped. “It is a sanctioned flight by the FAA,” said Quincy police Captain John Dougan, who would not elaborate.
FAA officials echoed that response.
At Quincy City Hall, the reason is no clearer.
“We’ve received a couple more phone calls, and the response is the same,” said Christopher Walker, spokesman for Mayor Thomas Koch. “The FAA confirmed that it is a sanctioned flight, and there is no information beyond that.”
A lack of an explanation has only exacerbated the frustration of locals who were initially upset about the noise.
“Given the events of the past month, people are on edge, and the main concern that folks have is, is there something going on that they should be concerned about?” said Councilor Brian Palmucci. “[Is there an] event, activity, individual that they should be vigilant about? And no one is providing any answers.”
Though some have speculated that the aircraft is a drone, a photograph taken by a resident shows a Cessna single-engine plane. Residents also say that more than one plane is involved.
“My husband is a pilot . . . the Cessna can only fly for seven to eight hours, so there is definitely another plane that comes to relieve it,” said Jennifer Azevedo-Andre, who lives in Merrymount.
Azevedo-Andre said that she snapped a picture of one of the planes and that another plane has a dark blue belly. The tail number in the photograph is registered to a company called RKT Productions.
The company’s only available contact is a post office box in Bristow, Va. A spokesman for the nearest airport, Manassas Regional Airport, had never heard of the company.
At this point, however, most residents say the purpose of the flights is irrelevant.
“We’re very reasonable people,” said Azevedo-Andre. “There may be a valid reason for them to be covert; to explain it might undermine its purpose. But I can tolerate for so long, and no one can give us a timetable of when it will stop.”
If you think I don’t notice you jacking our concepts, ideas, and blog poasts – you must be mistaken. You know who the fuck you are. I don’t care if you trying to make a living. That’s twice in two weeks. If it happens a third time, I’m calling you out by name. I read and respect your shit too so don’t make me do it.

I’ll come up with a cleverer title after some more coffee.
For now, it’s this week in Boston hip hop…
#Boston #GoonRap at it’s finest.
Off The Boston Project, in stores now.
Suspect #2′s twitter handle is @J_tsar.
Here are a sampling of his tweets.
To be honest, he seems like an all American kid. Crackin jokes, talkin bout girls, conversing with friends…Very hard to believe this type of kid would do this. I thought I’d find a string of militant ass tweets, but he was on some regular 19 year old shit.
Very odd.

Did anyone ever eat at this amazing-looking place that once existed in the North End?
