more NEW MUSAK

Bobby Valentino ft. Lil Wayne
"Your Smile"

DOWNLOAD or LISTEN
HERE

DO. NOT. WANT. or NEED. I don't know what he is trying to do with this joint but I don't believe that he accomplished this task. I'm so over this song right now, it's making the room spin from... from.......horribleness (thanks Ricky Bobby)! And I'm soo over Lil Wayne, ENOUGH is enough - after a while everything he does just sounds the same. Sheesh Dewayne Carter, let the mic breathe just for a minute.

NEXT!


Cherish
"Amnesia"

DOWNLOAD or LISTEN
HERE

I hate to admit that I really like Cherish. I was wary of them at first because they were more pop-ish than R&B but I think I'm starting to come around.

I really like this track, even though none of them really have a strong voice or presence on any track (I can never tell any of them apart) but nonetheless, I will most likely rock to this one for a while. Girl groups are on the come up and we should all be on the lookout. GIRL POWER, hehe.

A Big, Fat, Nasty "Thank You"


Thanks readers for 50,000 hits.

I'm so grateful of every blessing and very appreciative for everything and everyone in my life.

Special thanks have to go out to:
My Pseudo
&
Doodle
Without you two I would probably have nothing to write about.

Also. This all began because I wanted to fuse my love for Hip Hop with my love for writing and 6 months later who would've known where fresh2defsheis.com would be?!

Another big thanks to Dom for pushing me to do something that I love, I am eternally thankful for that career move.

And to the readers and visitors, you guys keep me going. Thank you for support and feedback. Now lets get 50,000 more.

FREE PUBLICITY!


I introduced the Konnoisseurs a while ago and I just want to reassure everyone that they are still doing BIG things and they are defiantly a force to be reckoned with. And if you're ever in the Philadelphia/Center City area be sure to check out PhilaLive at Patterson's Palace every other Thursday Night. See you there!


WickedSick.Wordpress.Com

Now this chick is my bestest friend ever! Her blog is up and coming but I'm sure that everyone will love the content. I love everything that she does so I'm down for the cause! Make sure that you check for her.


Last but not least:
Kick-TheHabit.Blogspot.Com

So I somewhat feel responsible for this blog blew-up-tuating through the roof. I mean, when I was first checking for this site there wasn't much on it - but now! Sheesh. Content is great (oh and the header too, big ups to myself for that one). Cousin Chris (my pseudo) and his Grammy Family, Jero & Don always keep the DOPE ish coming so be on the lookout!

but don't forget who hip'd you to the new hype! Over & Out.

NEW MUSAK

Michelle Williams
"We Break The Dawn"

DOWNLOAD or LISTEN

Can't say that I'm in love with this jam but it will def grow on me! The beat is pretty slick and I've always been annoyed by her voice but I mean I guess this sounds okay.

Eh, maybe on the next go 'round because judging from this track, I don't think I'll be downloading her album when it comes out in May (I think). Oh but I love the new promo pics of her, I'll give her that much.

What do you think, Yay or Nay?!?

Damn, Sombody Left The Gate Open Again

(photo post)

Now normally I wouldn't allow anything that has to do with BET even think to cross my mind BUT when I saw these pictures I just knew that some fuckery was going down.

I bring you, BET's Spring Bling 2008 (yea, a knock off of MTV Spring Break but at wack-er locations)::


Ray J and some mysterious guest, he looks like that kid that was his friend on that show.... you remember? Ummm, with his sister. I think his name was (**draws a blank**) - who cares!?!

I've been told that this guys name is Webbie? Humm, why does he only have one eyebrow? That concerns me.

Wow! Mike Jones was on that Kanye West Workout Plan for real. And I hope those are yellow diamonds and not a gold-plated necklace because that would be soooo 1991!

Who the hell let the kids out for recess? Is it nap time yet??

Stop! Just Stop! LaurieAnn just stop! Your not a singer, please give it back to someone who cares. Just dance. Let Ashanti do the singing for the both of you. ENOUGH is enough.

I couldn't tell you this jokers name if I tried but I know this, he has one Coogi sweater/vest circa 1998 - let's be real here! I'm not even going to get into his Prince Akeem juices and berry's haircut. I digress.

(semi NEW, but not really MUSAK)!

Because I'm such a wonderful person I've decided to post some music from some people who are very near and dear to my heart BUT that does not exclude them from the ridicule that people receive on this site!

Now of course these are no original Fruity Loops-laced tracks (**cough.cough** Soulja Boy) but I'm pretty sure that they were done on somebody's IBM Thinkpad with a Mr. Microphone probably in a dorm room with egg cartons on the wall and it's humorously dubbed, "the studio". Okay, maybe that was a little harsh but without further a due;

Now I'm no Britannica of knowledge or anything but I'm pretty sure that they 'spit hot fire' like it's nobody's business!

You trying to get some of this hot fire?!"

but seriously, I do love these guys and I think they are MAD talented (yeah, I said 'mad' so what?!) so I mean even if you don't rock with it, that's your choice but you know what I'm gonna tell you? YEP, YOU GUESSED IT.

How I Spent My Sunday Night x Random Ish

I just had a few things I wanted to discuss and maybe get some clarification on.


1. Alright so, I keep my phone in my back pocket while I'm at work and this guy comes up to me and accurately describes my phone and it's color. Something to this nature;
[JOHN DOE] "Hey. How do you like your blue Sidekick LX?"
Can I honestly believe that he was examining my ass? Because how else would he know what kind of phone I had if his eyes were not in that general vicinity?


The image “http://www.union.umd.edu/images/mcdonalds.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.
2. Now my friend has these 'Random Thoughts' that she sends out to everyone and one that particularly just made me laugh my ass off, went a lil something like this:

When I went to McDonald's I saw on the menu that you could have an order of 6,9, or 12 Chicken McNuggets. I asked for a half dozen nuggets. "We don't have half dozen nuggets," said the girl at the counter. "You don't?" I said. "We only have 6, 9, or 12,"was the reply. "So I can't order a half dozen nuggets, but I can order 6?" "That's right." So I shook my head and ordered 6 McNuggets! LOL!

This is the youth of Philly. God Bless America.

3. While consuming dangerous amounts of Fried Chicken and Weed, my roommate Tanisha and my ex Mac got into a really un-heated debate about the fate of the world. But for some reason after coming down from that smog that I was in, Mac's argument is starting to make more and more sense (sorry Doodle). It went a lil something like this;

[DOODLE] "The world is going to hell. We just keep going to other countries and fucking people up. There is no excuse for killing a mother and her kid."
[ME!!] "Well you have to make an example out of someone. If America goes and fucks Iraq up, they're sending a message to any other country who wants to fuck with us!"
[MAC] "Right! Pick a country. I'm America, who are you?"
[DOODLE] "England!"
[MAC] "Alright so I whip out a 44 Magnum and you whip out a shotgun. And then I whip out a machine gun and your like 'I aint seen that shit before'"

I don't know how all that makes sense but in some parallel world, I'm pretty sure it's the answer to America's problems. Thanks for the insight.

4. So at work we have this new system and now every time you use a credit card the screen asks you to hand it to the cashier. Well I did a study. Here were the results: Every person that used a credit card just looked at the screen as if they were confused about what the words were saying. One lady actually said, "The screen says I'm supposed to hand you my card?" and I was like "Right!" - Sheesh, do people just turn their reading skills off on the weekend? Like really.

enough is enough! Happy Sunday.

On Another Note...


This don't have nothing to do with nothing, I just want to share this bit of information that I got with you.
Chick is a banger! YES, I said it. Toccara.
I mean damn, if this is what Celebrity Fit Club can do for a chick - where can I sign up! I bet Janice Dickenson is rolling over in her grave[1] looking at Toccara now because on the show she was all about, 'no plus size girl is going to be a supermodel'. AND Toccara is in no way shape or form a "supermodel" but she is stunning!
For more pics of the FIERCEE Awards, check C+D! Until then chile bye!

I Got A Thang For You - Trina (video)

Now you know!
I'm not even going to begin with this fuckery. Who is Trina's hair stylist? And why can't she use Keyshia's? That lacefront thing that she has sitting on her head is just not cute. Did she go through some kind of Chemo and didn't tell anyone?! What's the deal.
I like Keyshia in this joint though. Nice catchy hook. I like the thought behind the song, just don't think it was executed that well. Come on Trina, let's try again.

THROWBACK JOINT



Was it just me or did everybody go through that Cash Money phase? I mean, they were hot when I was like in the 6th grade. They came up right after the fall of No Limit and they just took over the South for a hot minute and then shit got REAL. B.G. was arrested or something... Juvie just rolled out, he thought he could do it on his own. NOT! Oh and Turk, where is he? And I need to say nothing about Wayne, I think we know how his story ends.

I will admit that I am guilty on all charges of calling The Box and requesting this video everyday after school. I am def ashamed to say that now but I mean, it was a rough time in my life and Cash Money was just everywhere. Hey, at least I can laugh about it now so let's just enjoy this oldie but not so goodie.

**yells** Where is my popcorn??!!?? ACTION!

While The Parents Stray, The Kids Will Play



I posted another similar video to this one a while back and I asked my brother to comment on it. Now, I'm not going to be so kind and ask him to speak on this one, I think I can handle it.

Now, I may be mistake but this chick doesn't look a day over 14! Like I said, I could be mistaken I mean there are just some young-looking people in the world - BUT- this chick doesn't seem like she is one of them. Second, who is taping this and why are they not the responsible party here? Honestly, who is the mastermind behind these YouTube videos and who is putting this ish together? This is where I believe that technology has gone too far. Anybody with a Nikon Coolpix 6 megapixel camera can be a director! This shit is ridiculous.

And, again I'm going to ask WHERE ARE THE GOT-DAMNED PARENTS?! Is this the after school activity? This is just what kids do now, go home and YouTube their lives away? What happened to playgrounds? I drive past at least 6 playgrounds everyday on my way to class and not ONCE have I ever seen any children. Every basketball court is empty. Every rec-center is empty. You know where they are?!? At home, playing Guitar Hero on PS3 and making YouTube videos. GET OUT OF THE HOUSE.

My moms used to lock me and my brother out of the house, forced us to just run around and play. That's what kids do. Then you get older and you go hang out at malls. Then you get a little more older, start driving, and that is pretty much the end of all things in the house. Shiiittt, with a permit you can pretty much ride all around the city without getting caught! And don't let you upgrade on them bit*hes and get a "real"license, you'll never know what the inside of your house looks like - until you need gas money.

Point it. What are our children doing with their lives? This is our future. Are you ready?

HOL UP!

I know exactly what will fix the fate of our future.


This movie should be in every 7th homeroom - period. And should be shown AT LEAST twice a week for effective purposes.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it, Dr. Phil! I've got the remedy.

This -ish Ends Here!



Ok so, Danity Kane and Day 26 have been doing they're promo thing real hard these days. They hit up the Tyra Banks show, which by the way I can't stand. I would never watch this show on actual television so I caught it on YouTube. Anyway. They did a flashback of when Danity Kane was on there before and Aubrey's hair was looking like some circa (yeah, that's my word today) 1998 Lil Kim zipper tracks, with a curl!

Ummm.... So I'm gonna give this the rundown:
Aubrey - stay at home next time!
Shannon & Aundrea - you two can do no wrong. I love it.
Dawn - you and Q need to stop with this PDA shit
D Woods - I ain't mad at'cha

Robert - he likes to cook?! say's who?
Mike & Brian - also can do no wrong in my book
Q - get off Dawn's bra strap, pleasse
Willy - "I'm not quiet. I'm just waiting for my question." **dead**

big fat YAWN from me to you.

Barack Obama x The View



I was in the car the other day having a very meaningful conversation about politics with Doodle & Cousin Chris. Well actually we were talking about Mr. Obama's blackness. It kinda went like this::

[ME::] One day I just want Obama to cock his head to the side and just tell Hilary to 'shut the fuck up!'
[COUSIN CHRIS::] That shit would be hilarious! Like during a debate, he just looks at her and goes 'damn you old heffer, shut up!'


This whole convo came into play because we were talking about a situation that happened a few weeks ago when Hilary offered her Vice Presidency to Barack and he informed her ass of this one little detail that she missed;

HOE, YOUR ASS IS IN SECOND PLACE! HOW YOU GONNA OFFER YOUR SPOT TO ME?!

If he would've added a few insults in there, that ish woulda made my day. When I heard him on the radio talking all intelligent, with all them big words. I knew on the inside he just wanted to let his black side come out and just punch her in the face.

Nonetheless, I'm all for Obama!

TEAM OBAMA. He's a stand up guy.

Beyonce x Jack Mag


Harpo, who this woman?

What the hell has happened to the crazy, popeye's loving Beyonce? Seriously guys. This blowout here is not cute. She has been caught lately in a few unflattering photos. There was that one with that horrible circa-1990 Wendy Williams wig HERE and now this....

I'm just saying. I love the girl and all but she is just wasting away like it's nuffin (yeah, I said it). This cover has some bobble head-ish action going on.

But whatever. People will still flock to her as if she was the greatest thing since running water! Who care. I'm over it. NEXT!

The Clash of The Kicks


Have you filled out your brackets today?

Oh for those of you who don't know, Complex Mag and Karma Loop have teamed up and are bringing you The Clash of The Kick. Which in turn is just like the NCAA tournament. You pick the shoes you want to win, submit your bracket, and then wait for the results.

I did mine, have you done yours?

DOWNLOAD OF THE WEEK!

Jay Z
"Aint I"

Posted the original link to this song a min ago but I heard it again and was like, "sheesh, Hov is THAT ni88a."

So because I've been so smitten with this jam, I figured I could give it to you again one more time. Ya know, RUN THAT SHIT BACK! I love it. And that since that joint with Mary J didn't really do it for me, I need to redeem my Hov-addiction!

Come on, I'm Fresh2Def.... Ain't I? (had to do it. corny, I know)

oh the downloads are on the left sidebar, in between some ads and some more ads :-)

can I get a FREE T.I. shirt?

No, really. If Mr. Combs is hustling his shit in broad daylight on Canal St., I should be able to cop a FREE T.I. shirt at a stand in the middle of the mall. Just point me in the right direction.

This Ni88a Here...


This man has made my list on numerous occasions and I'm sick and tired of his niggradum! Yea I said it, I'm talking about his niggerish ways. I am so disgusted that he is a negro, I just wish there was a Racial Draft (thanks Dave) so we could trade his ass to another race and keep it moving. I'm so tired of hearing about what he did, what he didn't do, who he did and who the wanted to do! I mean come on... Really?

About two years ago I read a book that was pretty much a biography for Mr. Kilpatrick called, Deconstructing Tyrone: A New Look at Black Masculinity in the Hip-Hop Generation and this book is what actually introduced me to Kwame Kilpatrick. This book spoke so highly of him and actually spoke highly of all black men however, that great impression that I had of him has surely faded after reading all these articles about Detroit's Hip-Hop Mayor.

http://images.barnesandnoble.com/images/14840000/14844012.JPG

Now, I'm not going to get into all the things that I can't stand about Mr. Kilpatrick... But I will give you THIS LINK and let you read and decide for yourself.

Is he a good representation of a black man in a position of power? And please remember how other countries view Americans. Is this the example that we want to send? What do you think he says to his three young sons at night, while all of this is going on? Is his behavior acceptable? Does the justice system sweep this under the rug because he is Da Mayor (thanks Spike) or do they prosecute as if he were Joe Shomoe?

I'm pondering but things aren't looking too good for Mister Mayor. GOT HIM!
____

Oh yeah, I got that Racial Draft for you guys. Always got comic relief. Enjoy!

NEW MUSAK

Cassie

"Thirsty"

DOWNLOAD or LISTEN
HERE



Where was Mr. Combs when she was recording this, because I'm sure that he wouldn't have had let this shit go down without his knowledge. Now maybe she recorded this in her bathroom with Soulja Boy's IBM Thinkpad and his Mister Microphone and then posted it on her myspace (sounds familiar, huh?). I guess since it worked for Me & You she thought she had a second chance at luck.

For real, for real Cassie - stick to modeling! I mean chick has a real talent behind the lens, NOT IN FRONT OF THE MIC! Be real, this chick only gets play because people see her in SeanJohn ads (and at a few industry parties). If a dude knew that she wrote Me & You, he would probably ask for head, if she objected she would be asked to leave... or the act would go down and that would be the end. Period.

Now this is not me hating, please! I sing better than sis on my worse day, with strep throat, the flu, and a midget punching me in the stomach! But I'm just trying to help he make the right career moves, she should model. Chick is clearly bad... I mean, I stole this off of MY pseudo's page. But whatever.

The song is weak. The delivery is weak. The beat is hella weak. The vocals are beyond weak. And I'm getting a headache just thinking about pressing 'repeat' **gags**. DONE!
