Alight,
I was honored to be asked to host a "celebrity" hip-hip Jeopardy game show for Black History Month.
Cool beans.
Immediately after accepting the responsibility, I get criticized for:
- Being too much of a Purists...
- Too willing to "run in people faces" that I was entrenched in hip-hop during the "Golden Era" (I was only child... hung out with myuncles, who were 16, 17, and 18 in 1986, so.....)
- Too willing to throw in a CD from 1993 before giving the new stuff out here a chance.
I was asked to listen to a mix CD and "open up" a little. Okay. Fine. Whatever.
The CD was a DTLR mixtape from this past holiday season... Hosted by Herkules and DJ Soundwave.
I throw it in this morning on my way to the office.
Joints starts off with Kanye's "Amazing."
From there... WHOMP WHOMP...
*"You really like her" - I-20 fea. Luda
* "Swag-On" - Soulja Boy
* "...I'm cool..." - Lil' Wayne fea. Bun B
* "Half a Brick" - "O.J. the Juice Man" Gucci Man
* "Nike Boots (remix) - WALE! fea. Lil' Wayne
Then I'm at work before getting to the next track (THANK GOD).
Question?
Am I the one trippin' here? Or is it justified that I don't have an appetite right now?
