From the desk of General Stoor, JTTS Los Angeles Bureau Chief

Gimme. A. Fucking. Break.

I don’t have a lot of time right now, seeing as I’m too busy hanging out with porn stars, so I’m a be brief:

News Flash

Me and BBB are cool. Truth is he’s a righteous dude. He didn’t like my poast, so I reached out to him and we squashed it. It’s amazing what grown ups are capable of accomplishing when they set their minds to it.

Having said that, LOL at message board culture.  There’s a reason that people with healthy sex lives derisively refer to anonymous internet fgts as keyboard warriors. Fact is, there’s only one true warrior:

“Warrior says: Get out of the basement, go play outside, and embrace the power of Destrucity!!!”

Now if you’ll excuse me…

Antonio Ansaldi and I saluted each other. Yukonn greeted me on some gay shit. A dude that used to write my radio show from behind the wall told me he came thru on the stremf of wanting to meet me. J The S was elated certain P.E. joints dropped. Trees reported that people were stealing copies of 99 nights. Amalgam Digital Ceo DJ Next told my homey he can get a high quality music video for $1000. Leeds was in attendance fresh off the Jim Jones debacle. Uno The Prophet told me he’s bringing Last Poets to town. I discussed a JTTS radio show with dude from Unregular Radio. Marty was well behaved and demure as always. I dropped an hour long break beat set while dusting off a bottle of red wine and five beers. Knife turned the volume down 12 times – as promised. Oh, I also dropped a blend of Janis Joplins Mr. Mcghee/Cappadonna ’97 Mentality. No one cared. I shouted out Karmaloops Red Foxx only to be told it was some other red headed fgt.

All in all, good times were had by all. Snow and biting Boston winds couldn’t keep Faraone’s fans and friends away. Dude has looked out for numerous people over the years, and the dope turnout was a testament to that. 99 Nights was sellin like Newports in the yard.

Now to JKFGT. We had a good convo. It reminded me of past drunken nonsensical discussions I had with my other son, Van Stylez. He’s telling me I like old hip hop and he likes new hip hop. I ask him who I like and he says Dipset. I criticize him for not maintaining eye contact. Regardless, he’s a good kid who hasn’t figured out his way in a mans world, and I can’t be mad at him for that. But Christ, Jeremy…or Justin… don’t let people refer to you as JKFGT any longer. Your road to manhood starts there, my friend. Your name is your identity. Can you imagine years from now your son runs into mine, and they realize their dads once crossed paths?
“Who was your dad?”, your swagless son sez to mine.
“DJ ON&ON…in all caps…who was your dad?”
With danger levels of shame streaming out of his pores…”My dad was JK Faggut.”
We’re on the same team J. Let’s figure this out. Next staff meeting, we’re picking a new moniker for Jason.

Bottom line is, I’m proud of my skwods efforts last night. Book writers, Beer Salesmen, Soccer fans, Yukonns and FGTS alike. We da best. Who? We.

ADMIRAL CRUMPLE VS. COPYWRITE?!?

Yes.. the well respected, oft-punched publicly Copywrite has fired shots at an unsuspecting UGHH message board legend.. Admiral Crumple.

The terse exchange took place (where else) on Twitter.

Many remember Admiral Crumple from his exclusive “CRUMPTHETURNSTYLE” interview in our early days.. or this video we shot up in Canada with him for UGHH TV in 2007.

He has stated publicly that he is now going to go at Copywrite with a diss track.

We will of course push the Copywrite diss track from Crumple when he drops it. Stay tuned!

BEST BEEF EVAR.

As a bonus.. here is a monster new track from Copy, Casual, Evidence + Roc Marciano – Golden State

I thought this was interesting.. not sure I’m a huge fan of the actual music.. but this guy is going hard at Tyler & (Yukonn’s favorite MC of the year) Hopsin.

After listening to Tyler’s “Bastard” album, Poetic shouted out OFWGKTA In His “Pokerface” video. He was expecting Tyler’s movement to carry the torch for the upcoming generation, but it wasn’t until Tyler released “Goblin” some months down the line that Poetic realized OFWGKTA couldn’t be the face of this generation. In regards to Hopsin, Poetic claims dude just tries to hard and needs to focus more on his lyrics than his image.

I don’t know why.. but I am fascinated with this shit. Dude’s eyes rolled back in his head, referencing Gravediggaz in his lyrics. If this kid is in his early 20s I’ll approve of this.. He knows his shit. If he is my age, well.. this is just sad.

Every few years, after climbing out from underneath whatever rock he’s currently under, Canibus makes a brief appearance above ground to with some ham-fisted, tragi-comic attempt at returning to relevancy at the expense of people who, you know, actually still have careers. As has been documented on this very site, I had my own bizarre run-in with Canibus while working as a reporter for the Boston Herald. But despite his previous beefs with LL Cool J, Eminem and myself, this latest stunt is truly the most puzzling and pathetic of them all.

(more…)

I guess Ludacris has beef with Big Sean + Drake? I don’t really follow teen blog rap like I used to, but I love when big name rap celebs go at each other. I’ve always liked and respected Luda, and I can’t stand Drake or Big Sean – so this caught my eye.

Also, I was going to comment on this, maybe drop some critique but .. you know.. I was like 10 minutes late on this and someone beat me to it:

^ Chick obviously went to the Yukonn MC school of “How to Internet”.

I had a long sit-down with Click Animosity on Saturday.

More on that coming soon, but I will say that these dudes are none too happy ’bout the proliferation of frat rap.

They Gusto, Charlie Murphy-style. Sam Adams is Gusto, Chris Rock-style.

Dudes never thought that when they got out of prison, the kids they used to sell drugs to would have taken over the rap scene.

The Click Animosity solution: more underground bangers like this one.

Stay tuned…

remember these guys?

you used to poast about them every single day back in May.

what had happened?

they not cool anymore?

u on to the nexxt fad?

weak ass trend following fgt.

Common’s not an MC who subsides on beef. In fact he sports the opposite stereotype, and is more likely to trade noodle recipes with Mos Def than shots and insults with the boorish likes of Jim Jones. Common had a skirmish way back with Ice Cube – resulting in the legendary Pete Rock-produced dis track “The Bitch In Yoo” – which is hilarious in retrospect since he’s since become what he accused Cube of being. But for the most part it’s been a vegetarian career for Chicago’s exalted prince of consciousness.

Until now. Since the recent announcement that Common was invited, along with other vocal artists, by First Lady Michelle Obama for a White House poetry reading tomorrow, a number of conservative assbags have attempted to embarrass the administration. Tucker Carlson, whose b-boy aspirations never quite panned out the way he’d hoped, cherry-picked some Common lines to blast on the Daily Caller. Sarah Palin, who used to rap under the name PMS-One, stepped in the arena too, tweeting something far too offensive to re-print here.

Matt Drudge and Fox News are also on the case, running the hilarious headline “Michelle Obama Hosting Vile Rapper At White House?” And by the end of today, this is sure to be a major non-issue, aired out on talk radio and cable news shows from the South Side to Wasilla (the Atlantic actually made some good sense of it already). But what they’re all missing are the similarities between Common and his white adversaries. This revolutionary has a conservative streak, as one of the biggest single of his career, “Retrospect for Life” with Lauryn Hill, may be the most mainstream anti-abortion anthem of all-time.

So while this spat continues to unfold, I just hope that Common, Palin, and all the bigots on the Fox News comment threads stop and celebrate their likenesses. I’m not sure how Republicans feel about abortions in the black community – perhaps they’re pro-choice in those circumstances – but I think there’s room to build here. Common was probably right in his Twitter retort, “So apparently Sarah Palin and Fox News doesn’t like me.” But until they sit down at the same table and discuss how life starts at conception, I can’t help but think this is a big misunderstanding.

Unlike the veiled B.o.B. bullshit from a few weeks back.. 2MEX does not hide his hate for the young black teenage superstars known as OFWGKTA. Not sure why he’s going at them unprovoked. Haters gon hate I guess… I like 2Mex, but I am confused. I hear the lyrics, but isn’t everyone in rap just copying / improving on something else that has been done before? Why them?

Also here is one of the rare video interviews I did in my career with UGHH.. It’s with 2Mex. I had no preparation for this at all.. I was all like, “oh there’s 2Mex. There’s no one around.. probably should interview him..” Unfortunately I was wearing women’s sunglasses and hadn’t showered in 3 days and was dehydrated as fuck. For some fucking reason the camera man kept me in the frame the whole time. Btw camera man was DJ Dave Onion, you can hear him talk through it too. So unprofessional.. Pioneers of this web video shit though. FUCK YALL!!

Not much has changed since those days I guess.
