Now Fuckin with the Best in the World...

So while I was hitting the makeshift bar at the Kanye concert, he was back stage chillin and playing connect 4. The wildest part....he dropped his "victory music". His freestlye over Lil Wayne's Lollipop. HE MURDERED THAT SHIT!!!

*the track comes in @ 2'20".


"...yeah I do it to the death till the roof get melt
...drop the roof so the coupe don't melt
Man I felt so cold even soup won't help..."

"So come here baby girl....you now fuckin with the BEST IN THE WORLD"

Wow...

Gas masks just became uber cool. Is this where fashion is headed?

"The suit comes with a Gaz Mask and is made out of Neoprene with Kevlar panels to protect major organs."

This is what I call entertainment!

I'm so diggin the mix that they're jamming out to.

Flare Facade

This is so dope I can't help but post it.

Trapped in the.....Elevator

Wow....this guy was trapped in the elevator for 40 hours! I'd prob run my head into the wall and kill myself after 1. I can't stand confined spaces. Amazing how this guy was able to stay sane after 40 hours.

The One Table You Need to Know About

Any reputable Casanova needs an arsenal of impressive date spots at the ready.

And when you find a new one that mixes the exclusive (one table, and one table only) with the casual (outdoors, with couches by a crackling fire), all the better. Now taking reservations: Table ONE, literally offering a one-of-a-kind experience beginning May 1.

Found on the renovated garden patio of JAAN—your go-to deal-making resto in the L'Ermitage hotel—Table ONE hosts just one reservation each night for either a couple or a pair of couples. (It seems threesomes are out of luck.) Dinner itself is a completely customized five-course extravaganza that starts when the spot's ambassador for the evening calls you to discuss your preferences of exotic meats and fish. That way, everything's arranged before you arrive and settle into your fireside couch—it's kind of like your living room...but with five-star service.

But if five courses with wine pairings doesn't quite pass muster, the more extravagant Epicurean Dinner option (at $2,500 per couple) should do it—Ossetra Petrossian Caviar starts it off, then lobster salad, truffles, scallops and steak all make an appearance before a Saffron Chocolate Tart in 24K Gold.

Shot of Love 2

So last night I was watching the new season of Tila Tequila's Shot of Love II. I was curious of the line up that they picked this year as it's cast. There was this one girl that jumped out at me in particular because she looked VERY familiar to me. As I continued to watch, I realize that her name is the same as the girl I suspected to know. It was killing me, I had to figure out if this was the same girl I know, so I went to MTV's site to check out the casts in a little more detail. Suspicion confirmed.





So the story is, this is some girl I met way back when during high school. I took her to my homecoming and we were cool. I was just kinda thrown off that she was one of the bi-chicks on this show. I'm guessing she's more bi-curious than anything else, cause her profile with the show doesn't make her out to seem like a total lesbian. Either way, her shot at love has ended...

kanYe Glows in the Dark

Kanye's Glow in the dark tour was one of the better concerts I've been to in recent years. Opening act was Lupe Fiasco and he delivered a powerhouse performance. Just when you thought he was outta gas, he'd come flying through stage and rocking the house. The show overall was molded into more of a rock concert than your traditional hip-hop concert. NERD was wildin out with 2 drum sets and was just high energy all the way through. It's no suprise Pharrell lost his voice so early in the tour. Rihanna was....ehh.

The stage prep for Kanye's set took forever. It went for about 30 mins, but well worth the wait. I expected to see something amazing and something innovative, but what he presented was on a totally new level. YOU GOTTA SEE THIS. Simple but bold. The concert was like a feast for the eyes and an assult (in a good way) on the ears. I have to give alot of respect to Kanye for performing at a level which really does outdo a lot of other artists. He gives 110% into his performance. Every song had a twist to it's rendition backed by a full live band hidden behind the large LED screen.

A day later and I'm still in awe of his set up and performance. The feeling of everyone in the crowd around you rocking in unison is crazy intense. He really knows how to command the crowd and deliver a great performance. I might just go catch the show at Staple Center in June.

BTW***they handed out his new "Thank You and You're Welcome" book. A nice little parting gift. Thank you and you're welcome...

Sonic Chair

This is a super hot chair.

"It features a highly resonant sound environment, and also includes an input jack to connect your iPod or laptop. It has a laptop side table and also allows you to integrate a iMac 20" touchscreen or a 15" touch monitor. It is available in 35 colors, and has a price tag of EUR 5,850."

But I can prob find something better to do with $8,000.

Jay-Z in Hollywood

Quoted from Urb.com


"Jay-Z & Mary J Blige: Heart of the City Tour ReviewAt Hollywood's cultural center, Jay-Z proves why he's the greatest of all time.
Even as the five-figure fireworks display’s pops, bangs and whistles distracted from Mary J Blige’s soul-packed wail and drowned out Jay-Z’s punchlines, it was deafeningly clear that Shawn Carter is the only rapper in the history of hip-hop capable of delivering the performance witnessed by the Hollywood Bowl last night in Los Angeles. Several thousand hands remained launched in the air, just in front of me, as were tens of thousands behind me, swaying their Roc-A-Fella diamonds in near-perfect unison. The gesture is no doubt reminiscent of devout worship—and the sheer number of bowing diamonds recalls the vast temples of Malcolm X’s pilgrimage to Mecca—and with the God MC, him, Jay Hova at the focal point, there wasn’t an ounce of false idolatry in the air.It’s hard to avoid hyperbole when discussing last night’s show. If headlining Madison Square Garden with his Fade To Black performance was Jay’s monumentally definitive NYC event, the Bowl was that for LA. Splitting time between bloated Ella Fitzgerald tributes and Coldplay concerts, it’s the bougie blossom on Los Angeles’ blouse. Rap isn’t supposed to work at venues like the Hollywood Bowl. Its Greek style seating and open to the desert air swallows anything that doesn’t soar ballad-like and forget about cuffed microphones. Hip-hop works better bottled up in some basement, where the energy can’t escape during the customary lulls—and yet, last night, the Bowl’s great expanse was overflowing.

Certainly, Jay’s catalog has lulls. But last night, he was able to turn them into stadium sing-alongs or poignant moments to pontificate upon. The space loungey “I Know,” from American Gangster, was enjoyably lofty, breezy even. “Show Me What You Got”—a song that awkwardly exists as a moment where Jay was temporarily pushed into the past-his-prime pen when he was absolutely out-rapped by Lil’ Wayne on the same beat—raced in the live setting, just as its fancy video denotes. Most glaringly gargantuan, however, was his performance of “Minority Report.” Whether it was the uninspired Dr. Dre production or its misplaced feeling amongst the Ikea rap and Chris Martin duets of Kingdom Come, its destructive details seemed to miss their target on his album. A cappella, as images of Katrina’s decimation and America’s failures flashed behind him, Jay-Z proved that he could pack his rhymes with the political punch normally reserved for acts like dead prez and Mos Def.

And yet, it wasn’t even that which cemented a status I had believed was long-since cemented. In a move that simultaneously frustrated and delighted, Jigga breezed through 10-second snippets of his impossibly deep catalog. “Crazy In Love,” “Money, Power, Respect,” “Money Ain’t A Thang,” “Hard Knock Life,” “Ain’t No Nigga,” “Fiesta Remix,” “Hello Brooklyn” and on and on and on—all hits that would’ve kept the crowd de-lulled and at fever pitch—were all dismissed immediately with a “Nah, **** that.” Enough tracks for a whole other concert were treated like album cuts or forgettable b-sides not the chart topping party unifiers that they are. No hip-hop artist has that depth of familiarity (and the charismatic audacity to rub it in). Perhaps, one day Kanye West will reach that level and it’s an honestly disheartening thought that Big L, Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur might’ve reached the refined artistry and prolificacy on display last night, but these remain hypotheticals. The Heart of the City tour was a reality. Oh yeah, as if this after-thought is a further testament to Jay-Z's biblical stature, Mary J Blige was amazing, too.

The LA dates are June 4, 5, and 6th and it'll be going down at Vanguard Hollywood. I'll most likly be at the June 6th event.

*sidenote* Last nights Jay-Z Concert was good. Not the greatest Jay-Z concert I've seen, but it had it's moments of awesomeness. I'll post when I load the photos.

I heard the kickoff of Glow in the dark was NUTS! in Seattle last night. Saw a video clip and some photos. MADNESS.

Vanguard

I'll be spinning at Vanguard tomorrow night. Come through if you got nothing better to do.

The New Crank Dat?

This is too funny. I read this on another blog and had to post it.

"So ATL is constantly coming up with new dances, but the “whoop rico” is the new hot shit according to my sources. Apparently some dude named rico got his ass beat in the club, and inspired a whole movement. Rico you are a martyr to the cause. Thank You."

Jay-Z and Mary J Blige Concert Tonight, but I'm REALLY looking forward to Monday night's Glow In The Dark Concert.

"Crying Laughing Loving Lying"

This is the inspiration I've been looking for. Although it's been heard many times, I never really looked into the lyrics till now. Labi Siffre's "My Song" from the "Crying Laughing Loving Lying" album.

This is my song
and no one can take it away
It's been so long, but now you're here,
here to stay
And I wonder if you know what it means
to find your dreams come true.

That right there is the intro and the outro to my music demo submission for red bull. This 1 short verse is my inspiration.

www.GETINNOVATE.com

GET INNOVATE! Since I'm kinda slow on getting around to finish developing getinnovate.com, I've decided to use the space to directly link my blog. So from now on, you can just type www.getinnovate.com and you'll be directly liked to the blog. No need to type "/blogspot" anymore.

I hope to get the actual site up and running by this summer. Just trying to compile material. But thanks for reading and stay tuned.

~innovate it!

Let's get lost tonight

Red Bull Air Race

Some of you may have noticed the lack of posts recently, but I apologize for that. I'm pretty busy with something that I'm hoping will pay off BIG in Sept/Oct. Barcelona BIG. But we'll see in due time.



Anyways Upcoming event that I might attend is the Red Bull Air Race. Last year, I was unable to attend because of the time it was scheduled. This year, I hope to make it. Looks like a awesome event. I give it up to Redbull for always being innovative with their events and making it what it is. Redbull has some pretty amazing set ups and mobile rigs to set up parties anywhere.

I believe the event is happening the first weekend of May. Let me know if anyone's interested in going.

Updates will be coming up, but this week is gonna be kinda crazy for me. Wed. - Jay-Z Concert. Thur-Spinning at Vanguard. Weekend-Long Beach Grand Prix. Mon.-Kanye Concert.

In response to all the madness and anger towards China as we approach the upcoming olympics in Beijing. Great read.

"I am in training for the Olympics - not for any of the breathtaking feats that world-class athletes will perform this August in Beijing. As a sedentary 55-year-old, I am training to run a block or two without stumbling if someone tries to knock me down and to hang onto a torch-like object if people try to wrest it away from me.

The special event I am preparing myself for is the Olympic torch relay Wednesday in San Francisco, the only site in North America where the Olympic torch will pass on its world journey to promote peace and understanding through excellence and friendly competition.

Many will scoff at this Olympic ideal and I understand why. As a longtime advocate of social justice, I'm familiar with the long list of failings attributed to the People's Republic of China from the days of its founding in 1949, including the simmering tensions in Tibet - especially because I just spent five months in Shanghai as a Fulbright scholar conducting research on the mass exodus that took place at the time of the Communist revolution.

As an American of Chinese descent, I grew up hearing constant critiques of the terrible Communist dictatorship. And because I am an open lesbian, my stay in China felt tenuous because, unlike America, which has anti-gay laws, China doesn't even recognize that we exist. Any of these might be reason enough to run as far from the Olympics as my middle-aged body can carry me.

But my time in China gave me another perspective. I observed firsthand the wide-ranging diversity and openness of viewpoints and cultural expression that now exists among China's 1.4 billion people. I met with hundreds of Chinese for my research and was struck by how outspoken and opinionated they are and, yes, even critical of their government.

Many of my conversations were with elderly survivors of civil war and revolution who have endured immense human suffering, from deprivation and humiliation to torture and death. Almost every one of them had family members or friends who had committed suicide before or during the Cultural Revolution that ended three decades ago. Yet, nearly all told me that they believe China is changing for the better and they are hopeful that Chinese society will continue to become more open.

I've seen this evolution myself, from my first visit to China in 1972, to the time that I attended the International Women's Conference in 1995 as a journalist, reporting on the 30,000 women activists who converged in Beijing. Only 13 years ago, there was just one program, a telephone hot line, for victims of domestic abuse in all of China. But feminist activists within China used the conference to create many new initiatives for women and girls, such as programs to end female infanticide and sex-selective abortions, to help rural girls get the same schooling that boys do - and to address the issue of family violence. More recently, the Special Olympics were held last fall in Shanghai, along with a national education campaign about people with disabilities. This year's Olympics has the potential to foster similar change in China on an even grander scale.

Such change might be led by some of the eager young adults I met who are looking for work at grassroots organizations in China, not for high-paying multinational corporations. Some told me about a left-wing progressive movement that is growing in China. Others explained how activists and bloggers in China are constantly finding creative ways to get their messages out.

Up until I left China just before the uprisings in Tibet, the Chinese government was heavily promoting the Olympic spirit and teaching Olympic values of friendship, understanding and fair play in the schools. China is not a democracy, but its people - whether Han Chinese, Tibetans, Uighers or its other many minorities - are becoming more vocal because of its increasing openness to the world.

Unfortunately, the calls to boycott the Olympics and to label everything about China as evil can only serve to isolate China and the United States from each other. China is not a monolith, and blanket condemnations of China and its people are as simplistic as blaming all Americans for the U.S. human-rights violations at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay. Such rhetoric, however, is driving many Chinese bloggers into a nationalistic response.

Attitudes such as these hark back to the Cold War days, when the United States and China were completely shut off from each other. A recent survey conducted by the Committee of 100 on American and Chinese attitudes found that both countries have significant fears about the other and believe that news coverage about their country is distorted by the other. It is worth remembering that during the Cold War, fear and ignorance of the "evil enemy other" was used to suppress internal political dissent, in the United States with the McCarthy Red scares and in China, through several of Mao's "anti" campaigns.

Someday China will join the United States as a world superpower - but the American and Chinese people do not have to retreat back to those Cold War corners. The world will be safer if China, the United States and other countries can address human rights and other critical issues in the community of nations and peoples, not in isolation.

There is another vision: that a peaceful and better world is possible through friendly engagement and mutual understanding, not violent confrontation and polarization. It's an Olympic message, a possible dream that our global civilization and everyone who is a part of it can aspire to - and for which I am proud to carry a torch."

Helen Zia is the author of "Asian American Dreams: The Emergence of an American People" (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2001). She is board co-chair of the Women's Media Center and a member of the Committee of 100, a national organization of Chinese American leaders.

Fighting 5yr olds.

This shit is just too funny. I came across this on another blog and I couldn't help but click the link. How many 5 year olds can I take on in a fight? GREAT QUESTIONS. One of the many ponders in life.

My favorate part of the quiz..

- "To hell with morality, I'd be too busy pile-driving, crane-kicking, and bare-knuckle bashing them all the way back to kindergarten"

- "During the fight, would you feel morally comfortable picking up a child and using him/her as a weapon to throw at other children?"

I got tickets for the 1st night in LA @ the Nokia Center. I still got some extra tickets up for grabs for the MEZZ level and 2 ORCH seats. Drop me an email if you're interested in taking these tickets.

'Otsukaresama deshita' or maybe au revoir

So I've been looking into doing some traveling this summer and seemed like everything was set to go. All of a sudden.... *hiccup!*

A little messed up in the head to make any logical decisions so I figure I'll cool off in Vegas this weekend before I come to any decisions. I need to just step back from all this and get away from the BS.

Coincidentally, I've been really feeling Lupe Fiasco's track "Paris Tokyo" off of his latest album, The Cool.

Enjoy...



[Chorus]
Let's go to sleep in Paris
Wake up in Tokyo
Have a dream in New Orleans
Fall in love in Chicago
Mayne

Wherever I go she goes

I love her
And I hate to leave her lonely
Ring ring went the Iphone, it was my homie
He said, let's hit Japan
If we can make em jam
We can make a hundred grand
Spend it in the south of France
Nothing further, I jumped
Grabbed my Goyard trunk
Got ready to 'Walk it Out' like Unk
In my John Lennon chucks
That's when I heard Murder
You're killin me, you're fillin me
With sorrow, sunrise, goodbyes
And missin you tomorrow's
I turn to see
My dream love supreme queen, meanest thing on the scene, cry
I drop my bags in a flash
That's faster one 180 on that dash sir
To dry her tears
And wipe the rain from my dear like dasher
you's the dame who's the user name to all my passwords
The reason I get fly as Ivan Jasper
I even keep your picture in my passpurt
Love, Love

[Chorus]
Let's go to sleep in Paris
Wake up in Tokyo
Have a dream in New Orleans
Fall in love in Chicago
Mayne

[Chorus2]
Then we can land in the motherland
Camel back across the desert sand
Take a train, to Rome, or home
Brazil, for real

Wherever I go she goes
Wherever I go she goes

[Verse 2]
So let's keep it, real
All in together, free chill
Tell the stewardess to throw a movie on the reel
Heat up my kosher meal, exchange my dollar bills
Lean back in my first class seat, and sleep
Don't wake me till I land, when they barely understand
What I speak, but they nod to my beats
I tell my fans who I am, and they stand, and they clap
They applaud. They love me, my God
'Otsukaresama deshita' or maybe au revoir
A spree on Saint Henry, then back to Charles de Gaul
So I can get home and tell her everywhere that I been
And, everything that I done, and
Tell her that she's the one, and, um

[Chorus]
Let's go to sleep in Paris
Wake up in Tokyo
Have a dream in New Orleans
Fall in love in Chicago
Mayne

[chorus2]
Then we can land in the motherland
Camel back across the desert sand
Take a train, to Rome, or home
Brazil, for real

Wherever I go she goes
Wherever I go she goes

[Verse 3]
Guess who's back in the, house
With a bunch of souvenirs and a smile for your mouth
I really missed you, each and every night I kissed ya
In my dreams fore I went to sleep to lala land to count them sheep
I swear you're lookin prettier than eva
It's got to be a prophecy for us to stay together ever more
For better or, less or poor, or worth our weight in buried treasure
X's on the shore
I know my world tour's like war to ya
But Ian said: Aloha, and Harley said: Cheers
Julian said: Bonjour!, Big O was like: Yeah
Amanda and Lemessie want to know when we goin there
Edison sends his love, so does the rest of the club
Of the international playboys and playgurs
But I revoke my membership, all for My Tenderness
She said, Pursue your interests, cause even If
I'm ticket less, I'll be there, by your side
In your heart and, on your mind
So, as I taxi down another runway
I Gotcha, who loves you bay
Now bring it back, now

[Chorus]
Let's go to sleep in Paris
Wake up in Tokyo
Have a dream in New Orleans
Fall in love in Chicago
Mayne

[Chorus2]
Then we can land in the motherland
Camel back across the desert sand
Take a train, to Rome, or home
Brazil, for real

Wherever I go she goes
Wherever I go she goes
Wherever I go she goes
Wherever I go she goes

Leave it to the creative Japanese

I love how creative the Japanese culture is. All these gadgets and novelty items. I think this one is up there in the top 5. Who can guess what the contents are...

Give up?

It's pudding. Enjoy...

So Soulful

I love the production of this track. The piano laced on the beat with chris martin on the vocals. I can just zone out to this beat. Addition to that, Kanye twists it up with this ode to Chicago like Common did with "I Used to Love H.E.R.", an ode to hip hop. The video is deep. I LOVE the ending.

*notice the base hit sounds like the explosion of fireworks. It really sounds that way when they show the fireworks in the background. Maybe it's just me and I'm hearin shit, but it's dope!
