Kanye Is Human

The MTV music video awards" Yo , I'm really happy for you that you are reading, Im gonna let you finish, but I just wanted to say that Tha TK Express is the greatest blog of all time. Of All time.." happened and now they are forgotten. But that night everyone's facebook status was about how much they hate Kanye West. Why? Well I'm sure you know he got up and interrupted Taylor Swifts award speech.

Sure it was rude, but was it THAT rude? Was it really that big of a deal? Cuz the world sure made it out to be... I guess that's what the world does... hyperbolizes everything. People will go nameless but I saw statuses saying
" I used to have mad respect for you Kanye, but now I never will"....

Hmm mad respect huh? sure..

Also " Gotta Hate Kanye, but 808's was still good"

Really..? cuz last I checked 808's and Heartbreak was his worst album.

Album preference is beside the point. Kanye was just voicing his opinion that Beyonce had a better video.... and it seems a mishap was made... because later it was found out that:

Taylor Swift wins Best Female Video, Beyonce Wins Video of The Year.

This is the funny part to me. How so many people watch the MTV Awards... in all logic... shouldn't the best video regardless of gender win the best female video, if in fact the best video winner is female?
IF these awards had any meaning Kayne's Argument would have been right.
These dumb awards shows do not matter at all...
At All. Do people really value a Moon Man? Do they really care to see Russell Brand speak his sexually liberal mind? I guess so.

It's funny to me, just how people acted... Like Kanye was going to interrupt some huge important speech... you know like MLK Jr.

because the news stations wasted a lot of their day talking about how rude Kanye was like he was like interrupting MLK. You have to admit that pic is hilarious tho.

With a flick of a wrist to grab the mike, those people who thought Kanye was cool, hated him...
"He makes good music... we should like him because of that. BUT if he is rude we will hate him."

The dude has a song called Ego!.. where he talks about how big his ego is. So big that he would interrupt himself

Ay, Yo Ky... Imma let you finish but I just wanted to say that TK is the greatest of all time.

. The point is: he was rude, during a speech that didn't matter. . People are rude all the time. Get over it. He doesn't deserved to lose respect, or you to not like his music, He doesn't deserve to get his music dropped off radio stations, and neither did the Dixie Chicks by dumbass country stations a few years ago....Its Kayne hate him or love him, just realize his ego and drive made him famous, and you are his customers.

Kanye Apologized, admitting he was in the moment, over emotional. Barrack called Kanye and Jackass, but a jackass in the moment. Thats all he spoke about the issue when asked... because it is not an issue worth speaking about.There are FAR more important things. People are rude all the time, talk it out. Be smart.

Overreacting is ridiculous
Thankfully Jimmy Carter Spoke later in the week about something completely serious... sad and disgusting... but serious.
I thought people were better than this.. but I knew it was true..

But back to my point, Which is.. people need to be smarter stop overreacting and just calm down in life, and Just be cool... Ay Yo Ky, Imma let you finish but I just wanted to say that no one will be as cool as me..
aight so try and be as cool as you can be.

Ay Yo God... haha

"So and So , Such and Such, Bullshit?... Pretty much"

P.s. Raiders are cooler than the Chargers After week one. Boltz need to get tougher and stop acting like they are a sure shot at the superbowl.

TOP 5 Foods

You’d be lying if you told me you didn’t love food. So let me be the first to tell you that I love food. How much do I love food? Well so much that I am in a group known as Fatties Anonymous.

I do realize now I am no longer in anonymity but its all good. Being a Fatty doesn't mean you are fat, it just means you love to eat.
I like most foods, However there are select foods that am very fond of. Such foods help me many ways. Sure, with taste but sometimes with girls. Yes girls.. actually people in general too! Would I rather hang out with X or eat this food or Eat this food with X? If I ever share these foods with you.. that means we are good friends.
You see these foods help me make decisions with money as well. One pay check could be 250 dollars to some, but sometimes to me its 50+ plates of a certain food. Let me just state that I eat really really really fast. Maybe I was eager to get to my room and hide from the horrors of my childhood or maybe I just didn’t like talking while I ate. It’s part of my slogan as the fastest in the land, I do everything fast… well mostly everything. You are about to go on a Journey of my favorite foods and their stories. And Please.. share your favorites and stories as well.

5. Anger foods – One day some shit went down. Needless to say I was really pissed but I had already made plans to go to Jalepenos, a Mexican Food Place, with my friends. Not wanting to talk about anything I decided the best way to accomplish silence was to always have something in my mouth. Like Dominoes , in 30 minutes or less I chomped through 2 large chicken burritos and then ventured over to dairy queen for a large butterscotch dipped cone. Ever since that day my friends think I’m mad whenever I eat a lot. But the truth is that it was just a bad decision in coping with my fury. I don’t even like Jalepenos, or butterscotch… what was I thinking?

4. Fascination Foods – to be honest I go through cycles where I become truly entranced by foods. Let's look at the clock.
-One time I made a chocolate instant puddin’package. With all the intentions of sharing it with my brother and mom. I ended up eating the whole container while watching Rome Is Burning.

Cuz the jello taste soo good.

-Lets see there was a time period where I would stay up late and arrive home in the wee hours of the morning... at this time I would always make eggs. All sorts of ways I was truly mesmerized by eggs. Not so fast Incredible Egg....My egg thunder was soon broken in a messy separation when I found about all the cholesterol.
- There was a time I really wanted breakfast foods, like pancakes and french toast. We had just arrived back in Diego from Los Angeles. We went to an IHOP which was supposed to be 24 hours. It wasn’t… I was pissed and wanted my effin pancakes. I had to wait 2 days before my friends and I went out to Studio Diner down in kearny mesa. I ordered blueberry pancakes 3 fat ones, and then a grip load of french toast. It was a good deal economically, no worries. However, caught up in the lust and the peer pressure I ate all of them that night. I was too far in the zone, or too far out of Barry Sears Zone to think of getting a box to take them home in. Not mention mid-pancake I was handed some of my friends french toast that they couldn’t finish. Ya I'm not fat. Really
- Whats the current fascination? Probably pasta salads.. or.Greek food -Gyros.. and Humus. The word Chickpea gets me excited...mentally

3. Pineapple/ Juice –

This should actually be number one but to be honest I’m the only person who would consider a pineapple a meal. If you place pineapple in front of me I will eat it until I see no more. I’m not a big fan of candy cuz of all the sugar. But I think the fructose thing is something else. Because after my love affair with pineapple I started getting crazy for juices. I mixed pineapple juice with apple juice and called it Pine-apple and after that moment I had to try every fruit juice. Soon enough I became obsessed with most tropical drinks starting with pineapple and shortly followed by guava juice.

Gimme that Juice

2. Spaghetti – I’ve made reference to Spaghetti before. I just wanna put it out there that some spaghetti is booshie. But if it’s maderight, its heaven. Cheese, sauce,spices, meat balls I guess it’s the texture of the food too. How you have to eat noodles. So hard to pick up but if you work hard enough.. oh yea.. you’ll get it.

Where's my madness

If you have ever seen Hancock.. there is a scene where the family has Spaghetti Madness night. Well I’ve had spaghetti madness nights before that movie so it was an instant connection. How much spaghetti can I eat? Lets have a spaghetti madness day.. maybe ill go for 5ths. It’s a sacrifice to my body I will make. If I had to chose between girls and spaghetti… I dunno. There have been times in my life when I would really chose the Madness.

1. Orange Chicken – The ultimate meal. Orange
Chicken specifically from Panda Express. But Trader Joe’s has good stuff too. And if you have mastered the power of sauces you could well be in the Streets of my love. You see I have never gotten bored of this masterful bird. And hardly ever do I pick any other choice when I go to panda.

Knock Out.

The OC and me are tyte. And if you ever tried to take my Orange chicken I might sock you in the face… girl or guy actually If you were a girl I might just stank eye you. But stank eye you to death a coma. If you ever ask me for a piece of orange chicken I bought… I will be speechless and wonder why you asked such a stupid question. Or if I care about you I will be torn, and worried what you will say when I explain that my true love is on my fork and how I was taught to share toys but not my Orange chicken.
As I’ve gotten older I’ve realized the value of money and the stupidity of birthdays. So all I ask for my birthday is for orange chicken. Not to be taken to a fancy restaurant because you know that food is just high priced spiced shit compared the savory glorious OC to me. Yes I love orange chicken. Yes.. I do Just like Kel Loves Orange Soda..

I do I do I do oooo

On a side note, the football season is starting! Be excited. I'm puttin this out there now, Chad and The Cincinnati Bengals will make the playoffs. And Go Chargers, and Eagles! and Larry Fitz.

I'm Your Favorite Villain

What’s up everybody today on Tha Express I will run through my revelation achieved while watching the play Wicked.

Yes sorry if you find it tragic, but your friends’ neighborhood superhero has soured his thoughts a little. In other notes, everyone has or will be going off to college once more. I’ve been through the goodbyes before but somehow I have managed to go back in time and make connections with some new friends causing the whole goodbye process to make me wonder if new friendships will fade just as so many have across the years. But if hindsight is 20/20, I’ll have more of a say in mapping out the future.

Before I begin I would like to say that the quest to dunk is going well I’ve been training 3-4 times a week and I’ve already been gradually making it up the hoop week after week. I’m about 3 inches away when I jump exhausted so that’s promising. We will see what happens next.

3 more inches to the Rim

The Main Event:
A couple weekends ago at the Civic Center I saw the Broadway Musical Wicked. Although heard of, I had never seen this musical before nor did I know what was about to go down. Basically it is The before and during events of The Wizard of Oz, but from the Witch’s perspective. A play that I really enjoyed for the most part, and advise that you should see even if you are a dude.

Understand I am no stranger to Musicals, I’m well aware of the whole lot of them and seen a few myself. So down to the Theater I went, Overly dressed but as always best dressed in the building. Perhaps a tradition, I enjoy mocking the high-life. I’m sure there were a bunch of two comma people who thought they were better than most of the world at this venue, so why not out dress and stress them with the cool of Carl Crawford running the base paths. The tradition started last year, when my crew and I went to see Phantom of the Opera. It was a jazzy night in the “ high class society”.

Ohhhh Carl

Anyway so the play begins when the Wicked Witch of the West . Elphaba is dead. The Good Witch Glinda then tells the story of her life to the town. Elphaba was born green, neglected by her parents, used as the blame chip, and teased and verbally abused by the community. She meets Glinda the Good who becomes friends with her, but mostly just to help her look like a humanitarian to the public eye. Yes although she develops the true feelings of friendship, Glinda the Good should be known as Glinda the Sell-Out.

During school, Elphaba discovers she has great talent in the world of sorcery. Only then do the teachers and Wizard of Oz realize her worth and start being friendly with her. They promise her that she can meet the Wizard of Oz
On the Journey to meet the Wizard, a lot of corrupt political scandals go on, such as the segregation of animals and humans in the world. Animals are forced out of jobs and tortured until they no longer remember how to speak to humans.

As this wave of corruption covers the city the only one who stands up is Elphaba. Once she meets the Wizard she finds out that He is behind the entire animal blacklisting. She refuses to go through with the Wizards plan of using Flying Monkeys to spy on the city and round up animals. As a result the Wizard and her School Teacher turn on her and blacklist her as well.

Elphaba is now the enemy the city and whole land.


Ok I’m going to stop there so I don’t ruin what happens at the end, But I might ruin it anyway.

I was pissed the whole movie, the most considerate and talented character was hated on and tortured through the whole play. Her best friend Glinda the “Good” sold her out and ended up telling the Wizard how to find her and indirectly is the cause of Elphaba’s sister’s Murder.

Nobody wanted to go against the crowd and stand up for what was right. They pushed Elphaba to the brink and no one ended up paying for it. That is probably what I wanted to go differently. I wanted some havoc. Cuz the political system created the Monster, so they should have had to deal with it.

I realize the play was a big metaphor for politics and racism and prejudice in the real world. But I don’t think people learn from these things. The real Good person in the play, so soon became Wicked and filled with rage.

And then it made sense to me. The superhero, the one that is really good, who really helps, who really knows what’s right and what’s wrong… well he/she must really struggle. Because so much of the world isn’t good. Why would you want to help the world if they never changed. Why would you want to save people who are so selfish and so absorbed about the status and well being of their lives? And as a result, the superhero then plays a game of choice, who to save and who not to save. They feel the anger and disgust of the actions the world commits. And in return the superhero becomes bitter, the superhero starts judging and the superhero refuses to help the selfish. And sooner than you know it, the superhero becomes the Villain.


But I thought it about it more, The superhero isn’t just a Villain.. They are the World’s Villain. A world that is Corrupt. And for the first time I understood that not all Villains are so bad. I only connected with the Bad Guy of the play, because Elphaba was only bad in the eyes of the corrupt world.

I wanted her to kill some bitches.

And honestly I was so into it that’s all my mind could think of.
If I looked at myself as Hero, I could easily see myself transition to Villain. It’s clearer than ever.
The majority of the world may never change, So let me be that Villain to them, and to the small part of the world that has changed I can stay the Hero.

This was a year ago. We don't play around
