The Life & Times of Sincere

2009-10-31T13:55:00.000-07:00

so last night, im walking in party city with my homegirl, and we about to leave when this older chick walks by and stops and goes "you look familiar" and im like "word ?" and shes like "yeah, i dont know where i mightve seen you or met you or something, but u do" =/

The New Boyz...

2009-10-31T04:44:00.000-07:00

I was NEVER a fan of them and NEVER will be a fan of them, but tonight, at the telly party, I learned to just accept that they are NOTHING but party type music artists. Since that is what my friends listen to and what was being played all night earlier. Yes, I had a great time and was dancing to this type of music (not doing The Jerk) and what not. I dont even know what the fuck they were talking about, yet was too sucked into just having fun with all my friends that I didn’t even pay attention the actual wackness of the song. Which is fine by me. So in the end, I will still not be a fan and support they music, but they are a great passtime when it comes to being at a party and what not

Great Night Tonight..

2009-10-31T04:22:00.000-07:00

So I had a great night tonight, at first it started off as usual, we waking up, nothing to do. So what do I do ? I go online (Facebook, Twitter, etc) and just mess around on there and read comics all day. Then later I go out with my homegirl Tiffany so she can do some last minute Halloween shopping. We spend like 3-4 hours doing so, in the mall, going to the same store like 12 million times cause she does not know what she is going to be. We finish that up, meet up with friend and eat, then that concludes that. Afterwards, I end up going to my homeboy costume party, at first there is NO ONE there, except a few people. I’m there for a little until i decide to go to another club to support my homies 40love (who is a local rap group, link included later*) and their show. After that, I come back to the party, nothing has changed in that telly party except one more person has showed up. I’m starting to lose faith in where this party is going to, so I chill and take like a 5 minute nap haha. After that, people start coming then the party starts getting wayyy better. Fast forward later on, alot of people are there, we drink, we have fun joking around and dancing and just hanging out. I’m one of the first to leave, mainly cause the party started to die down, but overall, “Today Was A Good Day” - Ice Cube

http://usershare.net/wq29k8phd6k4

So I finally decided to listen to the song, I was expecting a little more out of this. Sadly, I was real disappointed in this a great deal. I will not expect Jay to reply directly outside of sublimes like he did on BP3. Beans is a dope rapper, but he really has fell off, at least at times he has. Plus I just can’t handle lame ass KaySlay yelling all over the track.

RIP Jam Master Jay

This marks the 7th year death anniversary. Your legacy lives on.

The Avengers: Initiative

2009-10-30T12:32:00.001-07:00

So I’m reading the Marvel comic Avengers: Initiative lately and I just cant seem to get into it as much. Its not a bad comic, its interesting, but its minimal in interest. I still have grown to have at least a few favorite characters so far in this series, like I do in every comic book series I read.

In Initiative, so far my favorites are Cloud 9 and Trauma. I dont really know why I like Cloud 9, but I think its because before joining The Initiative, she was just looking for freedom in her superpowers, like how everyone is looking for freedom.

Cloud 9:

My second favorite in this series is Trauma. I like his character because of his super power. Basically, what he can do is transform into your worst nightmare, literally. I think that shit is bad ass. He can transform into the superhero/supervillian you are deep down terrified of. Transform into something you don’t want anyone to know because it is your biggest fear like knowing you’ll never become who you’ve always wanted to be or growing up into the father you never want to become.

Trauma:

Paranormal Activity...

2009-10-30T12:30:00.001-07:00

so who was HONESTLY scared when they saw this movie ?

Because I honestly was not, I’m not saying that I sat through this movie without a care in the world. There were times that had me like “oh, what the fuck ???” but scared ? Not at all. I’ve been hearing alot of negative comments on the movie saying it was wack because it wasnt scary. I understand that, but from a movie viewing point of view, this movie was not bad at all especially for the budget they had in producing it. Overall, I give it a 6/10. It was a very good movie, nor was it a very bad one. The beginning was a little slow for me but it indeed picked up after that.

It's been too long...

2009-10-30T12:26:00.000-07:00

So yes, it has been a VERY long time since I have came and posted on here. I kinda stepped aside and moved over to Tumblr (sincerebc.tumblr.com) but now I have decided to in one way or another "merge" my blog-ish posts between here and Tumblr. Just to catch up on here, I will be copying a few previous posts on my Tumblr and posting them on here. Hope you like.

Pink Dolphin spotted in US lake

2009-03-02T19:53:00.001-08:00

Charter boat captain Erik Rue, 42, photographed the animal, which is actually an albino, when he began studying it after the mammal first surfaced in Lake Calcasieu, an inland saltwater estuary, north of the Gulf of Mexico in southwestern USA.

Capt Rue originally saw the dolphin, which also has reddish eyes, swimming with a pod of four other dolphins, with one appearing to be its mother which never left its side.

He said: "I just happened to see a little pod of dolphins, and I noticed one that was a little lighter.

"It was absolutely stunningly pink.

"I had never seen anything like it. It's the same color throughout the whole body and it looks like it just came out of a paint booth.

"The dolphin appears to be healthy and normal other than its coloration, which is quite beautiful and stunningly pink.

"The mammal is entirely pink from tip to tail and has reddish eyes indicating it's albinism. The skin appears smooth, glossy pink and without flaws.

"I have personally spotted the pink dolphin 40 to 50 times in the time since the original sighting as it has apparently taken up residence with its family in the Calcasieu ship channel.

"As time has passed the young mammal has grown and sometimes ventures away from its mother to feed and play but always remains in the vicinity of the pod.

"Surprisingly, it does not appear to be drastically affected by the environment or sunlight as might be expected considering its condition, although it tends to remain below the surface a little more than the others in the pod."

Regina Asmutis-Silvia, senior biologist with the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society, said: "I have never seen a dolphin coloured in this way in all my career.

"It is a truly beautiful dolphin but people should be careful, as with any dolphins, to respect it - observe from a distance, limit their time watching, don't chase or harass it

"While this animal looks pink, it is an albino which you can notice in the pink eyes.

"Albinism is a genetic trait and it unclear as to the type of albinism this animal inherited."

A close relation of dolphins, the Amazon River Botos, called pink dolphins, live in South America in the Amazon.

CNN speak on new album, Channel 10

2009-03-01T02:34:00.000-08:00

Rap Duo Capone-N-Noreaga unveiled details about their new album Channel 10. The release is the group's follow up to The Reunion, Gold seller, which was released eight years ago.

“I'm proud to be working on a C-N-N album, a lot of people have been begging for this to come out", N.O.R.E. said in a statement. "We recorded the whole album in the studio together."

The Lefrak, Queens bred rapper also revealed a more lucrative reason for his enthusiasm with the release of Channel 10. "We want the music to be really good and it came out hot! Plus we own our masters," N.O.R.E. revealed.

Capone, who served a total of six years in prison, was equally excited to be reunited with N.O.R.E. in an actual recording studio. "This time we were able to come together in the studio," Capone added. "Record together, not over the phone, in different cities. It really shows in the music, we are really interacting in the whole album. We are giving the fans a whole different feel, a whole different texture and it is going to show in our music."

The duo lined up some heavyweight producers for Channel 10, which boasts contributions from DJ Premier, The Alchemist, STK, Play & Skills and Hazardous Sounds. A variety of notable rappers appear on the album as well, including Fat Joe, The Clipse, Dogg Pound, Maino, Picalo, Charlie Hustle and Uncle Murder. The first single from the album is "Follow The Dollar" which was produced by The Alchemist.

C-N-N's Channel 10 hits stores on October 21st 2008 on SMC Recordings.

Crack A Bottle sets Digital Record

2009-03-01T02:28:00.000-08:00

According to Billboard, the song soared from No. 78 to No. 1 on the chart and has set a record for opening week download sales (418,000).

The record previously belonged to T.I. and Rihanna who shifted 335,000 downloads with their collaborative single "Live My Live" last year.

Among all weekly sales, "Crack A Bottle" comes in third after Flo Rida's "Low" (467,000) and Lady Gaga's "Just Dance" (419,000).

Various media outlets had attached "Crack A Bottle" to Eminem's upcoming Relapse album but 50 Cent revealed last week that the song will appear on his album, Before I Self Destruct.

Before I Self Destruct is slated for release next month. Eminem and Dr. Dre will be releasing their albums later this year.

Jim Jones Musical???

2009-03-01T02:25:00.000-08:00

Jim Jones plans to employ the stage to present his music in the form of a play in New York City. The Play is called “The Jim Jones Project,” and there are a pair of dates later in the month.

One source explained the project under the auspice of anonymity.

“Its a new and different way that Jim is showcasing his music. He’s taking his upcoming album and telling his life story via the album and the actors acting it out as a play to release his album,” the source explained. “The upcoming album is the soundtrack to the play. We have two nights.”

The nights for the play are November 12 and 13th according to the source, but neither Jim Jones nor his management was available to confirm at press time.

Jim Jones is presently experiencing success on the music front as a guest rapper on Ron Browz’s “Pop Champagne."

Young Chris Confirms "Roc Roster"

2009-03-01T02:23:00.000-08:00

Young Chris confirms Roc's official roster.

MTV reports, Young Chris said that as he heard it, Roc's official roster is himself, Memphis Bleek, Kanye West and Young Hov. "Everybody is still doing their thing. Shout-out to the whole S.P.," he said. "[The Roc roster] got short in a short matter of time. I know everybody was shocked by that."

"Me and Jay, that's personal," Chris told us. "We're personal friends since I been in the game at 15 years old. When I say, 'Leaving Def Jam,' it means leaving Def Jam, not Roc-A-Fella too. Roc-A-Fella is a family."

State Property are definitely back together and, as a unit, they are free agents. That hasn't stopped the Beanie Sigel-captained collective from working on albums separately and as a group. Chris is trying to keep his heat up with his Web site, YoungCBlog.com, and by releasing a string of mixtapes. Never Die is his latest, and he put it together with DJ Omega and DJ Drama.

"I got a song titled 'Never Die,' " he said. "Justice League did the beat. It was recorded two years ago. It's the same beat as Rick Ross' 'Maybach Music.' Due to my album being pushed back, they sold the beat to Ross. The song meant so much to me, 'cause I was talking about a lot of people in my 'hood that got hit up real bad and made it through it. I just figured the mixtape [should be called] Never Die. Hip-hop never dies."

"Nothing is more common than an unsuccessful man with talent."

2009-02-28T03:49:00.000-08:00

Stole this from Andrea's blog and i thought that quote is very interesting and true all the way. There are too many people on this Earth who are blessed with things as well as worked their way to being in a specific place in their lives who are more fortunate than the average person, yet, what do they do with it? Absolutely nothing ! I really do not understand the logic in it. It is a waste of talent, time, and makes the people who may not have certain talents look horrible although they are the same people who work and shed blood sweat and tears just to get by.

Here's a link to Andrea's blog. Show her some love !

DMX updates fans from prison

2009-02-28T02:15:00.000-08:00

Earl Simmons, better known to some as DMX, is serving time in prison on a variety of charges. While going through this sentence, Simmons has faced some challenging times. He has reportedly made threats to prison guards [click to read] and now he has been accused of attacking a corrections officer. Recently, X released a letter to fans, opening up about the incident, allegations and more on his status in prison.

To those claiming he is receiving special treatment for his fame, he notes that any statements about "special treatment" is untrue.

"Since I have begun to serve out my sentence, I have not been given any special treatment but it has actually been the opposite," he said through a letter to fans, published by TMZ.

He goes on to clarify matters on his part.

"For the record, I want to state ''I Did Not' physically touch or hit an officer. This is just another attempt to destroy my credibility."

To finish the letter, DMX thanks everyone on his corner.

"I’d like to thank my family, love ones, and fans for their support. I ask that you continue to pray for me during this trying time."

DMX is still serving 90 days in prison. No official word has been given as to whether or not this sentence will be elongated due to these allegations and/or incidents.

Obama at the Wizards/Bulls game

2009-02-28T01:41:00.001-08:00

i mean i know he just got elected and all and that our economy is bad which im sure he HAS to figuring out he can TRY to do. i am also sure he has been really pressured with all the things brought up as being president, so i think its kinda cool he took a mini break (unlike Bush who disappears for months to play golf during terrorist attacks) to enjoy his hometown nba team play. Looks like he even left the wife and kids home, Obama is that dude.

Camron And Jim Jones finally speak

2009-02-27T23:54:00.000-08:00

'It was cordial,' Cam says of recent phone call with Jim Jones.

Cam'ron is working with New York radio station Hot 97 to plan a concert for May to coincide with the release of his Crime Pays LP; he also hopes to return to the Hot 97 Summer Jam in June, according to MTV. But the question is, will the Diplomats be with him at any point during these performances?

"You never know," Cam answered yesterday in New York. "You never could say never. Right now, I'm kinda like in Cam zone. They been doing what they been doing for the past two or three years, but I'm kinda in Cam zone. But you never could say what could happen in the future. Right now I'm kinda in the Cam mind frame."

The former Diplomat seems to have softened on the subject of his old crew. In fact, after years of not communicating, Cam says that he and Jim Jones just had a short chat.

"Hell Rell and J.R. Writer, they always check in," Cam said. "Everybody has been reaching out. I've been the one kinda saying Cam is going to take time do Cam. But Hell Rell and J.R. definitely been reaching out. I called [Freekey Zekey's] phone four or five days ago and Jim picked up Zeke's phone. Me and him spoke for about 10 or 15 minutes, but me and Zeek speak all the time. I haven't spoken to Juelz."

Cam described the phone call with Jones as pleasant.

"It was cordial. He knew it was me," Cam said of Jones. "He said we was gonna holla — maybe we'll put something together. But in the immediate future, I'm just doing Cam. But you never know what can happen down the line. I called Zeke's phone and I guess Zeke gave Jim the phone to pick up. We just talked, asked about each other's family. He said he's on a promo tour. He'd be back soon. That was that."

Another Diplomat looking forward to speaking to Cam is Juelz Santana, after Cam recently told the press that the two stopped speaking because Juelz became addicted to syrup. Santana adamantly denies ever having an addiction.

"I'm not going back and forth with him [in the media]," Cam insisted. "I wasn't lying. I was asked a question and I answered it. I'm sorry if he's upset."

Samuel Jackson Signs on to Iron Man Sequel

2009-02-27T23:47:00.000-08:00

After a public salary dispute, actor Samuel L. Jackson has signed a deal with Marvel Entertainment to play Nick Fury in the upcoming Iron Man sequel.

The pact also sets up Jackson to play the leader of international crime-fighting group Shield in nearly a dozen Marvel movies, Variety reported:

His deal contains an option to play the character in nine future Marvel superhero films, efforts that are expected to include Captain America, Thor, The Avengers and The Shield as well as potential sequels.

Jackson appeared in a cameo during the closing moments of director Jon Favreau's Iron Man movie last year, playing the Fury character that was modeled after him in recent Marvel comic books. In the scene (embedded above), Fury talks to Tony Stark (played by Robert Downey Jr.) about the Avenger initiative, setting the stage for cross-pollination of future movies based in the Marvel universe.

Dodgers gonna offer you a 1 year deal for $25mil and then a 2 year deal for $45mil and you STILL dont accept, do you really think any other team is gonna pay you what you THINK your worth? the contracts aren't always gonna be so good, you need to just accept the best possible offer given and be happy with it. I swear, these baseball players gets paid way too much for doing nothing.
