2010 Predictions

 

Welp 2010 is here and 2009 is gone like a crackhead on payday…And you  know normally I don’t make any resolutions..Mainly because I aint GONNA DO em…Yeah thats right…I am old enough and smart enough to review my past 25 years of living and realize that I aint gonna do nothing but disappoint myself next year when I realize that those 20 lbs that I said I was gonna lose before February..

Bout 2, 3 weeks

We love ya'll too.

It’s been a good year for IATL and we appreciate riding w/ ya’ll through it.  Now pardon us as we take the remainder of this year off for reflection and plan to come bigger and better for 2010 w/ that IATL goodness.

Ya’ll enjoy the holidays.

Techniques NOT to Buy Local Music

My homeboy Trapper said everybody’s local somewhere.

I’ve made the argument several times that if Jay-Z moved next door to you (whether you’re a Stan, fan, or not) for the first few times that you run into the brotha, you’d be a tad “starstruck”*. You’d probably hit up a few folks and tell em, find ways to “conveniently” be outside when he is, and then spark up convos that you otherwise wouldn’t have.

That One Thang

10lbs / 197kts / $410,000 / 100% dumb

The Story

Bout 6 yrs back, my homeboy/biz partner and I discussed what ignorant thing we would cop/do if we had the dough. You know, what to get after we had millions on deck and were already situated and sitting pretty with the necessities. Back then we figured the money was right around the corner, so we were kinda just planning for the next 5 years. (The money actually was around the corner, we just turned the wrong one.)

Michael Eric Dyson Critiques Obama

1st Chamillionaire, now Iron Mike Dyson

Still a staunch supporter of Obamaman, but he has some serious issues to bring to light.  The always animated, colorful, and brilliant Michael Eric Dyson revs up double time for this interview to go in on the President and his treatment of “race” thus far.

He is willing to sacrifice the interest of African-Americans in deference to a consumption of universalism because it won’t offend white people.

Or in non-PhD folks talk:  Obama is playing it safe on all race issues so as not to offend them white folks.

My Momma Said….

 ”You Calling Me a Liar?”- Momma Fresh

 My momma divorced my pops and left us in hell as kids really didnt teach me much but there are a few rules that she did share with a G and I will like to raise my hand and share this info with the class…maybe I can shine a lil light on the blind.

Hoe Promo

Wat up world, my name is Sean Fresh and I am a new writer for IAmtheLife (momma I made it!) ..So let me give you a quick run down of myself…

1. I can/will fight

2. I love the Lord (if you dont believe me…ummm…peep #1)

3. I love feedback (if any feedback is about my momma or disrespecting Jesus…yup…#1)

Sooo….peep my 1st blog about dem hoes.

HOE PROMO

With the economy getting Joe Frazier’d right now…Everyone has been forced to be more innovative and cost efficient in their marketing and promotion of their products especially the music industry. Investors and record labels no longer have the luxury of throwing stacks out without a promising return of their investment so now the artist must become the BAWSE…Need to promo a new single? Pose and send a jpeg of them there nipples.. Trying to rejuvenate your rap career? Catch a small charge and make a BIG deal about it.

The Media & Lebron James will have Amnesia

The machine that is the NBA is PRO-Lebron.  He makes them millions upon millions of duckets.  I’m for Lebron too.  But I keeps it realla Cleo.  Bron-Bron got dunked on.

Hey, it happens.  Even, Kobe’s own teamate has gotten him before…
