I guess the Smurfs don’t give a ish that shit is going to hell.
It’s entirely possible that Smurfs caused the latest market crash. I for one, am not surprised.

We Can’t Be Stopped turns 20 today. Efil4zaggin did the same about a month ago. I wrote a messy sprawl of a think piece about both records and the rise of gangsta rap nihilism over in the Hive.
A couple years old but new to me. The “Olympic runner legs” on the Camborghini Prototype is some of the funniest shit i seen.
50 Cent-“Thicker Than Water” (Cutmaster C’s Official Best Of 50 Cent, 2002)
You’re now rockin with the grimiest nigga in New York.
Bumped this shit on the reg back in the day… classic 50
peakstreet: Dear Puffy, Fuck You # 1
FOR SUBJECTING US TO CRAIG MACK’S PERMANENT GASFACE
Dear Puffy,
Remember back in the early 1990’s Puff? Just after Andre Harell had given you the ass from Uptown records and you were a young, hungry upstart looking at shaking up the record industry by starting your own shit? No, you hadn’t lucked out by stumbling across The Source’s Mister Cee who was running around New York co-signing how dope an unknown Biggie Smalls was just yet… You had however discovered and signed an MC so fucking ugly that whenever he looked in the mirror his own reflection ducked - Craig Mack.
Sometimes I forget the classics Just Blaze was producing in the early 00’s. “U Don’t Know” (maybe the hypest beat ever made, especially when you got M.O.P. on the remix), “Oh Boy”, “I Really Mean It” and “What We Do” are straight fuckin’ classic tracks. I was disappointed to see no Saigon on this but I know why (I can’t even think which track they would use, which is a damn shame since I consider myself a Saigon fan). As the title suggests, I’d take 2003 Just Bleezy over Kanye, Neptunes, Timbaland or any other major producer of that era. When I think the beginning of the millennium, I’m thinkin’ Just Blaze (and throwback uniforms).
From Life Sucks Die, a graffiti mag, not sure what year. N.O.R.E. on some buckwild, full steezie shit, but besides all the classic madness, I was intrigued by this:
LSD- Okay. So what’s the next slang to come out from Noreaga?
N- We call each other “Slime.” We don’t call each other “son”, we call each other “Slime.” That’s what each and every one of our individual is. A person that don’t buy weed but wanna smoke weed. A person that don’t buy cigarettes, but wanna smoke cigarettes. A person that don’t buy no liquor, but wanna drink all motherfucking day. That’s each and every one of our peoples. So we call each other “Slime.”

“Greatest of all time, God straight up told me/Greatest of all time, the Devil even told me.”
One of my favorite lines all time.
Not a huge fan of the song but this video is off the meat rack. A bearded child who, based on his style of dress and the company he keeps, appears to be a drug lord or dictator is summoned to a reenactment of 2 Live Crew’s As Nasty As They Wanna Be cover shoot. After witnessing this, he turns into some sort of techno Jesus. It’s directed by the excellent Andreas Nilsson, who has many other videos you should check out. His work is very cinematic and often times reminds me of that David Lynch/Ken Russell type shit, which is to say he creates a completely fucked up atmosphere using characters and situations that are not over the top or in your face. This is something that you obviously don’t see too often these days, so it’s good to see someone is still holdin’ it down for us subtle degenerates.
