Ahhhhhhh....Got The Big Beat!

What ever happened to the whole 'big beat' phenomena? Oh wait, it got relegated to action movie soundtrack status. Thaaat's riiight! Still, there was some decent stuff that came out of that scene.

Dub It In A Barjacker Styleee

A dude on the Soultstrut messageboard requested this track, and the dude Derek has been getting deep into dub and dubstep as of late so I figured I'd put forth a little of my own...

Deeez Nutz!

Bow Down

All you little sh!tstains that are trying to dress all 80s wearing every color of the rainbow in one outfit really need to take some cues from these dudes: solid colors, people. SOLID. COLORS.*



*Yes I know Herbie is wearing a plaid blazer, but his whole outfit is in a graytone colorway so it doesn't count.

I Am Hip Hop Too!

This is one of my alltime favorite KRS-One tracks from arguably his best album in his career. Enjoy:

Blow Your Horn

I'm not listed on the flyer, but I'll be rocking the early set from 9-10pm, so come on down, it should be a good time.

I Am Not A Cook

OK, so for those of you NOT in the NYC area, we have this strange phenomenon of non-KFC KFC houses. Most notorious is the Kennedy Fried Chicken chain, which is usually in neighborhoods so ghetto that the good Colonel won't even set up shop. Well, me and a couple of the other Barjackers were doing some moving this weekend, and Derek spotted a Lincoln Fried Chicken joint. What's with all these presidential fried chicken places? What's next? NIXON fried chicken?

Sniglets

My girlfriend called Ukraine "Ukrania" today. It was hilarious. But that's OK, because I use words like "galactical" and "fantabulous". And yes, I used that sh!t way before Rachel Ray.

Hey Hey We Gets It In...

Let's be honest here, most people would probably agree with me that Q-Tip fell the f*ck off after he left Tribe and tried to go all commercial and sh!t. I mean, Vivrant Thing and Breathe And Stop were allright and all, but he was no longer 'The Abstract' in my book.

I was happy a few years back when he tried to make another comeback with the live band action under the Kamal moniker, but that never came out and, as per usual, I think me and my homegirl who turned me on to it were the only 2 people in the world who actually liked it.

Fast forward to 2007: it's 2am and I'm rocking out in 85 degree heat sweating my balls off in my St. Paddy's day boxers with this song on repeat for a half hour. Q-tip is back, son.

Work It Out

Happy, joyful and carefree

Come see the Barjackers this Saturday, July 28th, 3-7pm at Halcyon The Shop as we get down with our boy A. Frog for some treats

Wilkommen!

So I basically sit around on my ass alot reading and posting on messageboards, and a friend of mine - Steve B - suggested I do a blog. At first I was like "no way, I'm a grumpy disconnected old man, I think current fashion is pretty crappy, ditto with alot of new music (especially the whole mashup/bmore/nurave stuff that the kids are going nuts for these days)" I mean, I don't like to dress like "a pack of Skittles" and I'm not too into club remixes of Led Zeppelin. Some shit should just be left alone. But I digress....

So the more I thought about it, the more I thought "hey if every other douchebag out there has a blog, I may as well do one too. At least I can talk about somewhat interesting stuff and post some cool tunes." Which leads us to here: Porn 4 Scientolgy - a special place for me to bitch and moan.

Excelsior!
