13247782, another: i miss buju banton records
Posted by Selah, Wed Apr-04-18 01:52 PM
"til shiloh" is one of my favorite (and most under-rated imho) records ever

free buju (12/8/18!)
13247783, I wonder why a "free buju" movement never took off.

1- personally, I can't find too many reasons to rally behind a dude caught up in the trafficking game.

2- he got caught up in the trafficking game. i.e. "he *did* that shit".


having said all that, I'm here for him when he gets out. He's one of the GOATs of Dancehall.

Posted by Selah, Wed Apr-04-18 02:04 PM
plus as said above - he clearly did dat
13247806, did they *really* derail his career, though?
Posted by Shogun, Wed Apr-04-18 02:07 PM
Wasn't most of that fallout happen between "Mr. Mention" and "Voice of Jamaica"? He got signed to a major AFTER that, didn't he?
13247812, im simply talking influence
Posted by Selah, Wed Apr-04-18 02:12 PM
consider

"Boom Bye Bye" was written and released in 1992 (when dude was 15)

yet

In 2009 gay-rights people leaned on venues around the US to not book him

17 years later
13247816, Not disagreeing. I was asking, because I couldn't remember the timeline.
Posted by Shogun, Wed Apr-04-18 02:20 PM
But I'm shocked that a major would pick him up AFTER that.

the reward-risk of being associated with a "gay hater" was less then

today?

nah
13247857, Familiar with the facts of his case? As I recall, it seemed like entrapment
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Wed Apr-04-18 02:55 PM
As I recall, a career Confidential Informant (i.e., a dude who gets paid to put people in jail), approached Buju about doing a drug deal. Buju put him in touch with some people he knows, they did the deal and then turned states evidence against Buju.

13247815, random: my fave song of his was Love Me Browning.........
Posted by WarriorPoet415, Wed Apr-04-18 02:20 PM
......I thought he was talking about brown skin women (my preference) so I dug the shit out that song.

Come to find out later, when I get some Caribbean friends, browning is Jamaica speak for light skinned girls or "redbones"

Ah mi dem tink otherwise bloodclaat, rastafari, beef pattie, wha gwan?

Fucking Jamaican slang.

13247792, Racist dogs barked at me when I was walking past the dog park
Posted by flipnile, Wed Apr-04-18 02:00 PM
Three of them. Saw me, ran across the park the the fence to bark at me, then followed me down the fence. You know how cops give you that look before they circle the block to pull you over? Yeah, like that. Two older white ladies were the owners, and I briefly thought about shouting "Your dogs are RACIST!"

13247803, anybody but me remember that old movie white dog?
Posted by Selah, Wed Apr-04-18 02:05 PM

Posted by Selah, Wed Apr-04-18 02:08 PM
flava in ya ear remix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMbELEUfmIA

putting craig as *second* after biggie's lead off then not even letting him finish is a diss to him like a mug

^^^i've thought that since the 90s
13247836, Even worse is Biggie's diss track on Flava was about Craig Mack

our boy sean fury, and his not-hit "biracial":

Posted by GROOVEPHI, Wed Apr-04-18 02:58 PM
braids, light brown with light eyes, big ass earrings and gold chain, nylon sweatsuit and reeboks. She was the typically 90s drug dealer's girlfriend and I had a crush on her like shit. LOL.

13247863, on the subject of lil boy crushes
Posted by Selah, Wed Apr-04-18 03:04 PM
my mom had a couple friends (note my mom was 27 when she had me)

couple of them was on some "hey ms. parker" ish

they knew what they was doing

same thing with a couple of my older sister's friends

one of THEM tried to get at me...like hard

too bad she was one of the ugly ones
13247871, another randumb: i am culturally disturbed by the number of....
Posted by Selah, Wed Apr-04-18 03:15 PM
...white women with "black girl butts" these days, especially in light of Black women BUYING butts (injections and whatnot)

what the s%^&*( is THIS voodoo??!??!

i dunno about where you are but in the south bay section of LA county there is some kinda epidemic afoot

we can't have nothing

:(

13247941, another: I have never liked madonna
Posted by Selah, Wed Apr-04-18 04:53 PM
ever.

whatever that album was with the light blue cover... i think puffy produced some tracks or somesuch

whatever

i think there was *one* song i might have not completely hated but it (and she) still sucks

anyway

I know this is foul, but i mean it:

the fact that she is still alive and we lost: prince, MJ, phife, biggie, 2pac, jam master jay, craig mack, that one beastie boy, nate dogg, dilla, odb, pimp c, big pun, guru, and even mc breed

THAT is proof to me that life is unfair

13248338, there are some posters whose threads i will avoid
Posted by mista k5, Thu Apr-05-18 04:33 PM
sometimes even if it is a topic i do want to discuss i wont post in a thread they started.

many times i resist even clicking on their posts. the reason is purely based on the tone of their posts and not anything personal.

many times the topic of their posts seem ridiculous to me.
13248350, similar
Posted by Selah, Thu Apr-05-18 04:55 PM
i will stop coming into a post i'm already in if certain festering a-holes start their schtick

sometimes even in posts i start

the dialog isn't worth being irritated
