Blu - Just another day

Around Christmas time, I had planned on completing a piece entitled "The Gift that Keeps on Giving" - no, it wasn't going to be about Herpes and the dangers of sleeping with strippers who reside in Tijuana. It was mainly going to be detailing how some people's hamfisted arguments immediately expose how fundamentally wrong they are. For example, as a person who regrettably lets the N-Word fly out of his mouth on more than one occasion, I've always claimed that explaining why you use the word is more damning than using the word itself.(see DJ Khalid) But the main focus was primarily going to be aimed at how people routinely defend wack rappers, like Lil Wayne for example - I can't tell you how many people have attempted to prove his lyrical worth to me by quoting a few of his lines with unwavering confidence. Usually, as my brain attempted to digest the inordinate amounts of third-grade poetry forcing it's way in my consciousness - that's when the soul of Johnnie Cochran took over my body and screamed: "Exhibit A like a motherfucker, Lil Wayne is wack!!"

But since my New Years Resolution has been to do less hating in 08', I decided that more times than not I would just highlight dope artists - hence the video. As I've said before, Blu is definitely a breath of fresh air.
