I Love Me Some Dancing Asian Dudes

Sorry, I have to say it again. And when I say it, I mean absolutly no disrespect. Dancing Asian guys are hot to me, point blank. It doesnt matter...Chinese, Japanese, Philipino, Vietnamese, whatever man...its hot when they can dance.

But yes, this is like the SYTYCD supercrew of this style of dance. Quest Crew. My favorites Dom, Hok, and Ryan are in the group...loving em. But they arent even the best. Love that little dude that be flipping everwhere. Just hawt.

Enjoy their best performance like EVER...

The Workplace

So I figured it out man...I have issue with "authority" in general, but I have seriously issue with "faux authority". So there's this chick at my intership who JUST graduated college and she be trying to exued authority and ish. Like Imma need you not to be talking down to people. Don't act like I will not put you in place. Because I will, and did today.

But yes, why did this chick ask this intern to get her a Dr. Pepper out of the fridge. She was like 5 feet away. WTF. Who the hell do you think you are. I need to know. You are not special and I need you to understand and recognize that. So today she come calling herself trying to correct me on something she knew nothing about. Naw son, back up on off. I had to lay it down (politly of course).

And that's another thing, when you have internships or summer jobs, you can't lay it down like a permanent job because they big big big bosses are watching you and asking others how you are. You can't totally let people know, don't eff with me, you gotta be more political. I cannot wait until I can lay it down for real at a perm job. Let these eem effers know. I look nice and innocent and unassuming, but I will tear your ass out if you eff with me.

Vent over.

Address to Congress...

Was HI-larious. OMG. Nancy Pelosi kept shooting up like someone shot her and/or bit her in the behind. Then Joe Biden looked like he was reading his blackberry or something, like why do these effers keep standing up. I'm tired of it. Then ole McCain looking like..."this was mine".

Freaking great. Almost better than the debates. Just saying!

Classic Guy

I remember this kind of music from back in the day...granted I was like 3 or 4, but I used to get it. My sister is 8 years older than me so she thought it was funny to teach me these dances. I can remember me her and my mom dancing to the acts on apollo and stuff... what happened man. Where is this goodness? It can come back and it would be so welcome.

This is Round and Round by Guy.

The Wonderfulness that is the Rippingtons

I am an outspoken fan of The Rippingtons. I have only been a fan for about a year now (I found them on Pandora... thank you Pandora). I mean I had heard of them before, but I really only heard the stuff they play on the radio (and we all know the mainstream stuff is never edgy like it should be).

Anyway, I know I have other articles on here about them, but I have to... sorry. I mean, seriously, Russ Freeman can cut up with a guitar man. He be killing it man. So mad at myself I didn't see them this summer...but I went to go see Keiko Matsui the week earlier so I should calm myself.

Their music is just so complex. I like many other people hear music in layers. I can go through one song just concentrating on the bass, or the piano, or the guitar. Point being is that there are so many different instruments with the Rippingtons and so many melody and rhythme changes... you will never be bored. Then when they added Jeff Kashiwa...man.

I also think it is so funny how a lot of their CD's were made in the 80's (Moonlighting was made in 1987 when I was 3), but they still sound fresh today. I am sure in the 90's people might have been tired of that type of music, but it is almost like it is making its comeback.Cannot wait until the new CD comes out in March. Hopefully they will come to the Bay Area this summer again. I would appreciate that.

BTW...Russ Freeman absolutly kills the end of Cicada from about 4:38 on. That is artistry man. Beautiful.

Jesse Powell

Yo, whatever happened to Jesse Powell? That guy was freaking bomb and he was cute. I wonder why he didn't do better than he did? His voice was velvet silky man. You want to talk about some range? He was the type of singer who at times you couldnt tell if it was a guy or a girl. That is some range. And he could sing an entire song in what some would consider falsetto... but it really wasnt even for him.

Neyo...you need to take some notes. You too bitch ass Chris Brown (yeah i usually don't cuss, but I felt this was more than appropriate).
