Guess Who's Bizzack?


RICKY RICH



I got a new nigga I would like ya'll to listen to and watch. He reps NY but, he's did his thing in B-More & VA. No question he is East Coast all day! He goes by the name "Ricky Rich", I'm saying it once, and then I'm going to say it twice..."Ricky Rich"! Get used to him because he has some shit for you niggas who lack concepts, orginality, and the sense of pure Hip-Hop. Check him out on the underlined link above.


Nope, it's not just your favorite Rapper/Producer/Blogger. It's the nigga who can't stop, won't stop until I'm on top! I'm setting up shop with my man's and them over at http://www.asishiphop.blogspot.com/ to make this internet shit become a lot more exciting for you non-thinking mo' fo's out there.


I would put the cover up to tease ya'll a bit for my next mixtape but, I'm a hold off on that for now and take it back to the early 90's before 2008 closes out. Shouts out to my man Malcolm for reaching out to me to create the cover. I can't wait to see what the final version will look like.

Japiro feat. Ricky Rich - Life's A Bitch 09' (Mp3 Download)



McDonald's

I can't believe ya'll bastards got a nigga singing about Chicken Nuggets on a commercial in 2008. I know I may be wrong for calling him a "Nigga" but, there is a difference between exploiting a culture and uplifting a culture. Do you ever see Chick-Fil-A with commercials like that...Fucks Noooooooooo! I've been to Chick-Fil-A in the A-Town and they were all about getting me what I asked for. I remember when a number 1,2,3 or three would have made my day. Now, I got to damn near spend at least $7 to get a good fast food meal out this mufucka. I'm still writing my letter. I got a book of stamps so get ready.



Randomness

Am I reaching to say......The Recession is the best album closest to the "Purple Tape" we may ever get!


Is it me or do those RSVP's on Facebook make me have too many unwanted requests in my inbox.


Did any black person other than myself buy Kanye's album though I initially downloaded it.


Ludacris better make a video for "I Do It For Hip-Hop"


Blogsites should not joke T-Boz for having to auction her home. What they should be doing is helping her boost her career so she doesn't have to auction off her crib!


That brings up my next random thought, is Mack 10 still down with Cash Money?


The new Keyshia Cole joint where she tried to re-invent Mary j. Blige's - "I Love You" just doesn't sound good at all. She may have been sipping with Wayne on this one. But, the joint she has with Nas rocks! I'm not just saying that because I'm a Nas fan. I'm saying that because it is solid all the way around. I still love ya but, get that album as tight as your body and I'll forgive ya.


Are albums even important anymore?


I just realized Charles Hamilton's Blogg text is all PINK... Well maybe it's Futia or something. I don't even know how to spell that color. Either way shout out to dude for creating something on his own and building his own movement. I still haven't listened to an enitre song by him yet because I have tons of mixtapes I downloaded back in September I still haven't listened to yet.


Okaaaaaay, you were just Hamiltonized...Lol Well, I don't think I over did anything here folks I just think I had a little Friday info/news for you. My countdown begins...12 days of Christmas....We'll see what happens ;)

JAPIRO - STILL SECOND 2 NONE (THE MIXTAPE) FREE DOWNLOAD!!!

Marty & Piro Poppin' Champagne
First and foremost I would like to thank Above Average for "Putting On" for our city last weekend. Also, to Jazzy & Schoolyard for their work on Monday & Tuesday! It's definately been non-stop for me the past 7 days. I don't even remember the last time I wrote a blog. Matter of fact the last time I wrote a blog "92Q's Morning Show" was still active...LOL-
B 2 Business
Ok, I'm definately going to be dropping new exclusive music at least once a month. Depending on how my daily schedule is, I may drop some new material a few times a week. Right now it's looking like the "Still Second 2 None" album is coming in April. Stay tuned for that. Please send all track/song inquires to my management contact: robjackson@pizzlemuzik.com
Randomness
I'm starting to feel like I've been on MySpace, Facebook & Twitter entirely too much this week!
Is it me or does everyone have a vengence to grab the G-1 or iPhone. At first I was a little ill thinking the G-1 was better but, after today I feel a lot more confident about my jPhone.
Shouts to DJ 5 Starr & DJ B-Eazy for all the spins I've recieved in the past week. I got ya'll both!
I realized I'm getting old when a dude in the Barbershop said he graduated from my High School this year and my reuinion is next June...WTF!!!
I got something in the works with one of my peoples out on in LA. It's amazing to know something that someone came across 8 months ago is starting to come full circle.
7 must be my lucky number. So on my quest to greatness and 7 figure lifestyle I need a Macbook ASAP.
Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan, I'm sorry "Paper Trail" is a dope CD but, T.I.'s - KING CD is still the shit....i.e. (Top Back) This is the song that helped him become indorsed by Chevy -
This is what the Anniversary/Birthday Bash looked like...

ABOVE AVERAGE 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY @ BEDROCK NOVEMBER 1ST


Okay, I'm going in right here. If you didn't already know about this, BED ROCK 401 W. Baltimore Street is the place you need to be this Saturday November 1st, 2008. This isn't just a party this is a movement. The SS2N Mixtape also drops November 1st as well. We were going to wait until November 4th which is my actual birthdate but, we can drop whenever we feel like it.
Sooooooooooooo, November 1st it is....It's a Celebration B!tches....LOL -
Yep, I'm back with exclusives almost everyday. I think I have enough music right now to come out with a new mixtape every month until next summer. Hahahahahahaha, and I ain't got to put nobody on because ain't nobody ever put me on. ABOVE AVERAGE/PMG SS2N....Still got shit sewn. This is what networking is all about. Making shit work even when the climate ain't calling for people to spend money, buy cd's, and party. We're still doing what we do and I would hope ya'll do the same.

JAPIRO - LIVE YOUR LIFE 08'

JAPIRO - LIVE YOUR LIFE 08'
I'm loving my life right now! Music is starting to become soooooooooo different and interesting. It doesn't matter to me who signs who because I'm going to continue to do what I do regardless. While ya'll continue to go right, I'm going to go left.This is one of the best songs T.I. could have ever picked for an album. I'm steady chasing that paper and I got not time for you haters.....wow!!!
Also, I had to take a picture of that letter I got from "Grand Hustle" earlier this year. I really want to know did that letter really come from Doug Peterson because I know T.I. did not hear what I sent him. Tom, you really think niggas ain't up on the computer game? LMAO!!!! Don't you forget, I am one of the reasons MySpace still exsists. I remember back in 06' artists didn't even have music pages like that. It might have been like 1,000 artist pages. Go back and look at your favorite artist on a major label's member since when date. You'll see what I'm talking about. For all you unsigned artists ya'll really believe someone is going to stop by your page and leave you a message to sign you. Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!
I got love for everybody who stops by and visit my myspace page, my website and blog. I have a lot on my plate and my mind right now. So this is the only way I can vent and speak the truth. More to come by the way. Stay tuned -

JAPIRO - SWAGGER LIKE PIRO

SWAGGER LIKE US (FREE DOWNLOAD BELOW!!!)

Embrace Your Inner Swagga

What is this new obsession with Swagga? Swagga has been around for some time now. Swagga was around before anybody knew what Swagga was. Swagga has been around since B.C.; as a matter of fact Swagga was C. Jesus Christ had Swagga!! Michael Jackson had Swagga before he messed his face up. Jay Z has Swagga. Anybody can have Swagga. Swagga is a universal thing.

In my opinion Swagga is Confidence. Swagga to me is that man that can wear jeans and a fresh white-T with some good smelling cologne. He doesn’t need flashy jewelry, lots of money or a fancy car, it’s all in the way he carries himself. On the other hand, Swagga can also be that man with the flashy car, designer clothes and jewelry; he knows he's the ‘ish and he doesn’t brag or boast about it…He just has that unassuming confidence.

Swagga is not trying so hard to be something that you are not.

Be Yourself. Be Swaggarific!

Yes, it's that time again! 27 is just around the corner for me so, that means I am going in on any and everybody and their records! Still Second To None is coming November 1st, 2008! You can pick your copy @ Bedrock and no, I am not giving them away. Gas & iPhones cost too much fuck!ng money to be giving music away for free to you mo-fo's...Lol
RANDOMNESS
The best two albums out right now in my opinion are The Recession & Paper Trail. Also, L.A.X. deserves an "Honarable Mention" for being decent.
If you haven't heard Kayne's - Heartless (Mastered Version) you definately need to here it. Definately a great single for a well anticipated album.
If you have not watched Chris Rock's comedy special on cable you need to watch that SHIT he really goes in.
I have about 8 days before my CD needs to be turned in to be duplicated. I'm not sweating it, I've had tougher things to do in my life....

Ray Victory's Birthday Celebration


T-PAIN - PR33 RINGZ MIXTAPE (FREE DOWLOAD)
I'm convinced this nigga is talented! I had to download this just off of the strength of the intro. I had to put this up for my nigga Tel. You got to go back and get both of his previous albums to respect him rapping. You have to understand music to be able to rhyme, sing, and produce. Point i.e. check out out "Like I Outta" T-Pizzle actually gives you his own rinditions of E-40, Shawty Lo, Soulja Boy, Young Jeezy, Rick Ross, & Lil' Wayne. He really did that shit right. Shit like this reminds you of why I fell in love with Hip-Hop.
BE THERE!!!
KEITH MURRAY - THE MOST BEAUTIFULLEST THING IN THIS WORLD
This video is the reason I want an 09' SC
2Pac - Brenda's Got A Baby
These two videos represent Hip-Hop in two different perspectives. One takes it back to pure skills and one tells a vivid story. What happend to music like this. Why does every record have to be a party record. You know they didn't care whether these songs would get play they just made music. That's exactly what I'm going to do. Stack a couple dollars just as if I had a deal on Koch...Lol, I'll take $5 to $10 dollars per disc while a nigga on a major is getting 15 cents. Hahahahahahahaha
If the publishing agencies get their way iTunes may be forced to throw in the towel. Stay tuned because people like me still buy cd's and I keep artists employed. So, even if you don't know or like "Willie Da Kid" SIDE-BAR (For The Love Of Money is CRAAAAAAAZY ILL) you should buy his shit because more people are going to download his shit than buy it. Shit is fucked up!!! Shit is sooooooooo fucked up!

Yes siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiir, you know I'm right back with all the exclusives your going to need for the week. Don't forget about Ray Vic's Birthday Bash on October 11th @ Kolpers from 9pm to 2am. Matter of fact, I'm going to hold off on these two new bangers I just got from my Big Homie because he may not want ya'll to hear them yet. Keep it locked on this Sunday afternoon. Shouts out to my man D-Hov for showing me love on the blasts for two weeks straight with Pizzlematic. I got you, keep it locked my dude and dudettes! Last but not least, Quell I got you with that "Thr33 Rings Mixtape" hold tight.....

Sincerely Yours,

Ray Victory - Jammen On The 1


CLICK ON NAME LINK ABOVE FOR SONG DOWNLOADS!!!


From time to time I run into artist after artist in my city of Baltimore. The ones who come to mind to most people are Skarr, Mullyman, Bossman, Caddy & Los just to name a few from my random surveys I've worked on the past few weeks. What about Ray Vic, Keyaira Chanel, Caddy Da Don, Al Great, Greenspan. These are all artists that push the envelope and are still developing. They refuse to give up and I admire they're hard work and efforts.




First and formost you need to pay attention right about now. Ray Victory was a dude whose music fell into my hands from a friend of a friend in 2002. Little did I know, we have pretty much the same stories in reference to music. We both came from working with 2 or 3 individuals and then branching out and creating our own movements. A few months back I remember him reaching out to me to see what's good just because niggas kept running into each other at shows. Then, it was just show after show, party after party, event after event, niggas kept that networking and crew love going so boom! We're like let's team up/squad up and make some noise. As time went on, I started to see how hard it was to break a record. The more and more I try help people break records I start to feel stagnant, almost as if I want to give up but, I can't. I would go to parties, do email blasts, hit malls, barbershops, text messages and then I was introduced to the BLOGGSITES! This is the most powerful thing an artist, writer, producer etc. can have. I was emailing blogsites everyday trying to figure out how to get my music on their without having to come out of pocket before they even listen. All that networking and politicking finally paid off.




I got my man on Onsmash.com in only one day! Shouts out to the kidLegend! Shouts to Dukeyman for that for giving Ray that banger. Now Baltimore has an opportunity to shine. All I can say is stay tuned Pizzle Muzik won't stop!!!! Holla at us.......

JAPIRO - ON MY GRIND (FREE DOWNLOAD)

SWAGGA LIKE US (P-MIX) COMING SOON!!! (STAY TUNED)
First and foremost, I would like to say thanks to all the people who inspired me to never give up on my dreams! Insert your name here: _____. I've spent countless years trying to convince A&R's, Producers, Record Labels, & tons off DJ's that I'm addicted to making music and I'm Hip-Hop 100%.


One day last December I woke up and I realized that I could do something better than just being an Artist/Producer. I've learned that over time I've evolved and matured into someone who sees the world completely different than I did when I started out 15 years ago. I remember when I used to enjoy just being at the studio writing and producing. Then, I became more interested in performing. After performing certain songs so many times as an artist you tend to get bored. Then, I began recording at a pace that was kind of insane for someone who worked damn near full-time and went to school. I used to sleep by the microphone!


Sometimes I feel like I've missed out on a lot of things in life just because I continue to dig away at what I believe is destined to be. I don't sleep half the time because I'm always thinking about my next move for my family, my neighborhood, and the culture itself needs help. I was blessed with so many talents that I would be wrong to God to give up because the right opportunity hasn't come yet. I can't help who I am. I thought I would of traveled this road at this point with a few more people but, I guess it's meant to be for me to carry the load. Most of the time all I find behind the boards is me 99% of time. Perfoming, it's me mostly me on stage alone......But you know what, I'm alright with that!


The funny thing is, it seems like you have to have a CD release party just to get a good crowd in Baltimore. I guess if that is what I have to do to bring the people out so be it! This is one of the toughest cities in America. If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere....Period! I have damn near 7 or 8 projects lined up and some people do not understand making mixtapes and albums ain't FREE. I may not have all the answers but, I read, I listen, and I grind. I associate myself with only people who inspire to aquire knowledge! From this day forth I will not be subject to any BS, stereotypes, or negativity. All of the let downs, dissatisfaction, and narrow thinking I've heard for so long helped me to turn the page on life.


I am proud to be the owner of my own label and I will no longer wait for someone to put me on and I hope you won't either...Don't worry I just put myself on and Baltimore I GOT YOU!!!

JAPIRO & RAY VIC PERFORMING AT THE BELVEDERE LOUNGE SUITE TONIGHT!!!

Tonight, you're basically getting two shows in one, JAPIRO & RAY VIC NUFF SAID!!!
I'M GOING IN...
First and foemost I would like to say I heard The Game's LAX songs at least one week before it dropped. I've heard 50% of Jeezy's album already but, I'm not mad. I'm going to tell you why I'm not mad anymore... Artist are learning how to market themselves without help from the label nowdays.
I dont give 2 or 3 fuck's if I hear a someone's album before it drops. If it's dope I'm still going to cop it. Until CD Depot, Best Buy, and Target (etc) stop selling cd's I'm going to make sure I still buy the physical cd. Niggas spend countless hours with ideas, concepts, and in studio time to make shit for the consumer. Then, people who are strictly downloaders or bootleggers never have official copies. Now, I can admit I don't bring my official cd's out the house anymore because I do not want to have to restore my collection of classic albums that I've bought more than twice such as Reasonable Doubt, Trap Muzik, Only Built For Cuban Linx, The Chronic, Life After Death and All Eyes On Me. Plus, the last two cd's mentioned are double discs. What the fuck I look like buying these $25 albums again. Fuck that, the point I'm trying to make is the artist doesn't eat off of your cd purchase. The Artist sees about 15-25 cents for every cd bought if they do not have a lot points for each sale per cd. For an artist going the independant route can either win big or get dropped because of the constant downloading.
Now, understand why I don't care about getting a Major Label Deal. It cost me $4.73 per cd the last go round for the 1st 50 cd's to test out Pizzlematic. Now if I get one-thousand units they only cost $1 per cd. Then, you still have to get a designer and hope all of the artwork fits the printing guidelines and parameters. As well as the audio needs to match the all the order displayed on the covers and inserts. Remember, you are the middle man supplying like 3 people. At that point that's when I said fuck it! If I buy every cd myself it costs 20 cents per disc, 20 cents per cd printed with my own thermal printer, and 20 cents per jewel case. So, it costs me 60 cents to do that per cd and if I want covers it may cost me a dollar per cd. This is better than selling weight! So, you mean to tell me I can sell 1 cd for $5 and make $4 back and at $10 make $9 back. Nicca, I'm in business. Even when I sell a cd @ $2 I'm still doing better than most rappers on labels. So, the game has changed and I guess I had to learn from countless years of not cutting out the middle man and others. Not to mention, I have digital distribution too. So, there's enough out here for us all to get!
RANDOMNESS
I have that Jeezy Album already...got that on pause so, make sure you copp that on Tues. September 2nd, 2008
Why do these Blogsites keep showing this nigga Charles Hamilton so much publicity?
I don't know why I like every Rihanna song. T.I.'s new song Life Your Life featuring her is straight FIRE!!! A month from now don't say I didn't tell you.
I'm not a die hard Ravens Fan but, they need to at least get to the Super Bowl again! Niggas be out partying too much...LOL
A lot people have asked what party am I going to be at on Sunday...I don't even know why they would do such a thing. Shame on you! You already know.
"Just live your life...ay, ay, ay, ay, Got no time for these haters!!!"

Humpday (Young Jeezy - Vacation)

YOUNG JEEZY(EXCLUSIVE) Click on title link for this banger from THE RECESSION





Shout's out to both people who left comments yesterday! I appreciate opinions that's what this site is all about. We all have different taste, thoughts, and reasoning.

I'm Going In...

Now someone please tell me if you have Madden 09'... What team is Brett Farve actually going to play for in real life? Lol', is it the Jets, Giants, or Packers? (Please don't tell me send me the answer I think wikpedia could tell me even if I didn't watch ESPN) I'm tired of these dumb ass companies i.e. (EA Sports) putting out games before professional teams decide on the regular season roster. They always have the Ravens players under/over-rated. Well, I guess one day I'll pick up an X-Box now that they will be $199, $299, & $399. I never thought their would be a day when TV's and Game Systems became the same price. Sorry Sony, I just can't fuck wit ya'll right now. BGE is too damn high for all that nonsense.

HUMPDAY RANDOMNESS

If you need to know the location of the next "SYE Happy Hour" on Aug 20th, hit me up or leave a comment on the message board.

If you know of any artist that would like to be featured on the next PMG Mixtape, tell them to send us an mp3 to info@pizzlemuzik.com

Don't forget The Million DJ March is going down from Aug 29-30 in Washington D.C. All artists, singers, and producers make sure you are there. Ya heard me!

Singer Cassie got her nipples pierced....Lmaoooooooooooooo (Who Cares!)

Is anyone watching Diddy's new reality show? "I'm taking bets to see how long the Transvestite lasts on this show! He or She has to at least be gone mid-season. Can you imagine Diddy having to travel with Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiim (Hahahahahahahahahaha)

Soulja Boy Tell Em'

I'm sorry but, I respect this youngin' because he knows how to get money. He may be young but, he ain't dumb. Don't get it twisted he may not be as lyrical as Nas or Jay-Z may have been in they're teen years but, why would you want a young dude like that talking about the same thing everybody else is talking about. Maybe, we all can learn from him. He got rich from the comfort of his home. Catch up niggas!
Well, I don't have too much to talk about for today. But, make sure if you have any info, updates, and anything going on you would like to talk about or share with the wonderful internet world, Holla at your homie! Hit us up at urbanjustice08@gmail.com "Take off the blazer, unloosen the tie..." Thanks Hov -

"Jocking Jay-Z" Tuesday

(Click on the Title w/Green Text to hear the track for you slooooooow people!)
Cheah-cheah, I'm back people! Everybody's jocking Jay-Z right now because Big Homie is on FIRE right now. This is the perfect time to capitalize off of his new deal before he even drops his last 2 albums with Def Jam. Hov ain't no dummy, why not let Kanye produce your entire album. He's 50% of the reason The Blueprint was a classic. Timbaland only made it on one cut on The Blueprint and 1 cut on The Blueprint 2. I suggest keep the same formula and get your Just Blaze on too. There cannot be a Bluprint 3 without Just Blaze or Pharell...Point Blank Period!
Plus, Ye' gets those plaques Hov, you may have the bread but, Ye' sells 2 million plus every album. Big Brother needs to listen up to Little Brother for a change.
DAILY RANDOMNESS
Tell me something, is it me or did Hov really listen to Tha Carter 3 a few times. Listen to "Jocking Jay-Z" just one more time to see what I'm talking about. Matter of fact, there was no Blueprint 3 until Wayne's buzz started to get heavy. Competition is getting heavy right now.
I heard Freeway might go to G-Unit but, then he was just on a song with Kiss. But, Kiss was just signed to Rocafella before Hov left Def Jam. WTF is going in NY.
R.I.P to Bernie Mac & Issac Hayes (Two Great Black Men to grace the stage in Comedy & Music) Word on the street says Weezy F. has a smash with Keyshia Cole
Is it me or is T.I.'s - "Whatever You Like" the hardest song out right now!
PMG STREET TEAM
Anyone with experience in marketing and promotions please contact: streetteamdre@pizzlemuzik.com or 443-220-8676
Pizzle Muzik Group will soon offer CD printing and CD replication for Artists, Producers & Promoters. For more info please contact us.
PMG would like to say Thanks for all your support on Pizzlematic (Disc 1), Pizzlematic (Disc2) is on the wayyyyyyyyyyyyy and I will be Putting On For My City on Aug 28th along with the homie Ray Vic.

If you missed the "Pizzlematic CD Release Party" you don't want to miss out on this show either. Don't be afraid to support your local artist in Baltimore.

Slang Of The Week
Chris Brown - Any light skinned nigga under the age of 18 wit mad parts in his head always signing and dancing near the hood corner store.
Fuggette - This is any Baltimore chick you see who smokes cigarettes at any given time while, rocking project Nike's or $54.11's if they are over 35 years old. Shoes can be substituted for those Chinese slipper rockers. i.e. (young chicken rats)
Blue Ribbon - Money, that Bread, Doe Cheese, and or Gwap
(Shouts out to Fox, I can't take all the credit for number 3)

Randomness
Is it me or does it seem like every show on TV is a damn reality show?
Why is it when you ride the bus there is always someone who smells, always a lady with a mustache, and a dude who is always sleep and misses his stop.
What happend to a fresh pair of Butter's in the summer. I guess niggas realize those joints were waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to heavy for the summer and niggas have opted for a more wavvvvvvvy look from Prada's to Gucci's to kill it for the summer.
What makes Rihanna so hot?
Ryan Leslie might be the 1st R&B singer that I'm anticipating his 1st album other than Neyo. Look below:

Ryan Leslie - "I Gets Money"


And if that wasn't enough peep this Lil'Wayne Cover:

These YouTubes I was put on to helped me find a new inspiration for Rapping, Producing, Recording & Engineering. It pays to be a one man band just because it's cost effective and you have to be very focused to pull it off. At first I thought I was the only person who did this. But, he makes me feel like I need to seek professional assistance with playing an instrument. This nigga ordered a mini-Trumpet and played it....Who does that?

"I'm Sooooooooo Focused!"

Max-B Is BAAAAAACK!!!
www.mixunit.com

WTF!!! How can we have an alley that looks like this? Don't blame our Mayor either. Blame yourselves because I see people buy dope ass cars, and nice ass houses and then they don't cut their own grass. That's like trying to smoke crack and not putting FIRE to the pipe! (I'm not condoning DRUGS AT ALL...I'm simply making a point) If your going to Ball out, DO THAT SHIT!!! But, do it right. If your a leader in your community be one! Don't just talk about it. If your a Bookworm, be one! Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit, (In my Clay Davis voice) you may be the person who figures out a faster way to get to the Moon. Either way just know that when your neighborhood has an alley that was once concrete and then grass takes over it's time to take a look around and realize that no one cares about you or your hood and you need to do something about it before some institution or business moves your bluffing ass out of that condemed place you sleep and eat at!

Where Are You Going?
Now, she's hopping off the Bus at 8:30 A.M. so that means she was up early on this day. Meaning she knew what she was going to do at least 24 hours before this scene even occured. This brings me into my subject matter for the day. As I hear the Thunder and see the Lightning outside I can think of plenty things I could be doing but, I decided to keep my eyes open until they are RED because I love my people.

When you have a vision you don't sleep, you eat where you get your thoughts, and you don't stop until you can no longer brainstorm. As number 4 on "Here I Stand" shuffles on my iTunes, Usher ends his bar with the part about "Grape Jelly" I have to pause...........................I think this CD shows Growth and Depth but, some of ya'll would like to hear a nigga keep talking about his Confessions. I don't want to see someone do something the same way everytime. So even if he was to make his next 10 albums confessing about some shit he did, as long as it's fresh how he flips it; I would be anxious to hear it, the same way I'm anxious to hear Jeezy & Re-Up Gang find numerous ways to flip bricks and always make it sound like you can't get caught or it's your 1st time you heard them talk that shit. To get where I am right now, I had to listen to Dopeboys like T.I.P. & Jay-Z because I got more Inspiration from them than I ever got from Leaders and Speakers because it's easy to see where they're vision took them. Hov is damn near a billionaire and needless to say Obama is the closest thing we'll ever get to see as a prominant figure who is in touch with his own culture enough to be globally accepted. I wasn't around to see Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton grow up. Even if I was they never did enough to spark my interest enough for me to even consider them legendary . What have they done for me? But, make it harder to be a Black Man in corporate America.


MTA

I see things sooooooooo much different these days than the average Human Being. You see a Bus, I see the difference of about $350 per month in my pocket to fund my DREAM. I'd rather fund MY DREAM than to keep wasting my money just to say I drove to work. Also, the lesser amount of cars on the street creates a better enviornment for you and I. Which means our children may actually be able to live within our almost diminshed O-Zone layer. Yup, I rode the Bus. Laugh at me all you want but, I bet the next time you see me with a Bus pass and a full tank of gas, I bet I'll be the one laughing at yo' ass!!!! LMAO-


I saw a man on Television get 151 miles per gallon with a Hybrid Honda Civic! Only in America would a mofo try some shit like that. Okay, I don't have to tell what his Race or what his Etnicity was because if you put 2 and 2 together "We just don't have time for all that!". It's all love though, because that shows that our Economy has shit fucked up for errrrrrrrrrrrrrbody! I love all races, colors, and creeds. But, one thing that is evident is that we all are hurting in some kind of way. It may not mean you are flat broke or a straight up loser but, it may mean no more frivalous spending and popping bottles on a weekly basis. Don't let Usher make you think "You got to keep it coming all night long" everytime you go out to have a good time. Don't do what I do because I know what I can spend and I can keep wines of all sorts coming because they don't cost $150-$300 a bottle they cost like $25 to start with. If you niggas were smart you would buy it wholesale and start a wine sellar or even stack your rack from a warehouse but, once again I'm telling my people to do something some of us may never do GROW UP!!!

On Friday of last week I was on my way to work and I saw the picture above. This picture is from one of my favorite streets in East Baltimore. You tell me how many places in East Baltimore have you ever seen grass in this amount other than in a Ziploc? I thought I had a story but, a picture is worth a thousand words.

FAST FACTS

Nas moved a little over 100k in his 1st week but, the album is excellent in my opinion! Fuck Def Jam, that would have never happend if Kevin & Lyor were still over there! Nas is a platinum artist and he sold more at SONY. Go back home to the label that appreciates you NAS.

Wale will be touring with Jay-Z in the UK
The Game's - LAX is definately dropping next month
Pizzlematic (Disc 1) is SOLD OUT
Til' next time, I'll be thinking of ways to save and not splurge. Even though it's hard to save, that doesn't mean you can't have fun. Someone has to pick your brains. Why not me. You wouldn't be on my Blogsite if you didn't want to be here.

Sincerely Yours,

NAS' (UNTITLED ALBUM) IS A CLASSIC!!!


First and foremost, I don' t know why there are errors posting pictures today but, Fuck it! I'm going in...I apologize if no pictures post today!

Standout cuts start with the unorthodox "Queens Get The Money" where Nas' rips two different samples only rhyming to a metronome. Nas continues to sounds a little Esco-ish on "Breathe", "Make The World Go Round", and "Hero". Then mid way through the album he starts to get into "I Am" mode with "Sly Fox", "Testify" and "Nigger". I say "I Am" mode because he still sticks to the script and doesn't reach for commericial appeal mid-way through this body of work. The last quarter of this album is solid where Busta Rhymes actually stays on subject for one of his many features where it just sounds like a breath of FRESH AIR over "Fried Chicken" where Nas & Busta rip this track and concept to shreds conveying the wrong ain't right but, niggas still got to have it! The song "Black President" solidify Nas' alter ego Nastradamus was so ahead of his time. Since Live @ The Barbeque Nas' has held his own and has proven himself time after time. He may not be as rich as Jay-Z and he may not have made the best business moves but, he brings the world yet, another Classic album during a recession, year of the 1st Black President, and where CD sales are overlooked by ringtone sales. God's Son finally scored one after Stillmatic.
Tell Em' Why I'm Madd 7.15.08 (Randomness)
I've been trying to get an iPhone for the past 4 days. How the fuck does Apple not have any more phones in Maryland! See, they think we're dumb they only ship a small ass amount and make it seem like they sold them all. Little do we know that they ship 30% of their product out and then ship another 50% of the product out after people feen for things such this for a few days or weeks or what have you? Then, the remaining 30% is replacement for disfunctional iPhones. Well, I'd like to say a big Fuck You Very Much Stevie J. because I cracked one of your little 16GB iPod Touch devices yesterday. It might have took about 2 hours but, that proves your little gadgets you create for people that aren't middle class to have aren't that tricky at all. Why put a password lock on a device if you can reset it. I guess I'm a NIGGA too...LMAO-
I've sold more CD's in the Club, Mall, & Barbershop than I have anywhere else. I sold less CD's at the show but, then again everyone there had it already except for the other artist there. Once again that proves we don't support each other locally. Just to let everyone know Pizzlematic Disc 2 will be for the entire city. I'm putting on other artists because that's what I do over here at PMG. Stay Tuned!!!
Man, Wale' should have been on "Fried Chicken" with Nas & Busta...WTF (I apologize for the randomness...) A Mark Ronson track should come with a Wale' verse or Hook. DMV STAND UP!!!
Russell Simmons' book "Do You" inspires me to keep cracking the surface and barriers that haven't been touched yet. I'm only 32 pages into it and I've already found light in it. There's definately not anything in there that I haven't seen or hear before but, what's wrong with brushing up on some things that get overlooked. That may be the best $15 investment I ever made in my life. I feel like I can't fail, feet don't fail me now. Success, is something I think we all get afraid of because there becomes a certain standard to live up to and with that becomes more responsibility. I spent so many years just living for the moment now, I'm living to create a movement.
T.B.U.R.A.
Enough Already!!! Amy Winehouse was reportedly caught with coke in her nose. Her dad has admitted we’re going to watch Amy die. He says, "She will die. But it won't be from a drugs overdose. She will die from emphysema. That will be the most likely scenario if she doesn't check her behavior.
"I wish my father would dis-own me like that. Even if I was a coke head like her....better yet, I just cracked this nigga's iPod for free!"
YOUNG BUCK AND TONY YAYO TO FIGHT ON TV?
It might be Michael Buffer time if Tony Yayo and Young Buck get their wish to fight each other in a ring.
Young Buck went on XM Radio and officially challenged Tony Yayo of G-Unit to a boxing match. Here is the quote:
“As far as Yayo – [he] talking about he wanna fight? I’ll do it off of real n***a s**t. I swear on my child’s life. If they line this s**t up, where me and that n***a can go in a ring, we can put that s**t on VH1 we can make that s**t real life. I’ll have Floyd Mayweather training me. I’ll knock that n***a fat, flabby, old, non rappin’ a** out.”
I am hearing that G-Unit is ready and willing to make this fight. I heard that Yayo is ready to go. This sounds like a stretch, but promoters have reportedly jumped on this opportunity. I hope to see this fight made.
"I don't know but, I'm riding wit Young Beezy Buck for this one G-Unit is done!"
As the rap game gets more and more mushy I'll leave you the link for the engagement pictures . Please feel free to sign the GUESTBOOK:

Pizzlematic Show Wrap-Up (I Do This!)

PANAMA, VG, & MEECH

Vanessa & Panama both brought up great points last night! Why did Cranberry juice cost $6 a cup. If that shit is that good, we should be putting that shit in our gas tanks and not that $4 shit that they have at the gas pumps these days....LMAO- "I got that igonorant shit you like/nigg@, fuck, sh!t, a$$, b!tch, trick, precise!" Hovi Baby-

See me and my man Quel chop it up about certain shit during the day so if you don't know about Wale' this is going to go over your heads:

1. Hmmmmm, what's the deal with shortie charging $10 last night and it's always $5 all night long?

2. Hmmmmm, what's the deal with everyone leaving after I performed? Lol

3. Hmmmmm, what's the deal with mixtapes being better better than albums?

UNITS IN THE CITY

Don't think I'm not moving units either! The "Above Average" video is coming soon. In 12 years of performing that was the 1st time ever all my people were in the same place at the same time to see me do my thing. My favorite quote right now is......."U did the damn thing last night!! DO THAT SHIT HOMIE!!!" Thanks Naya-

As you can see I'm on a different wave than these niggas B. This surfboarder, will never get wiped out because I'm married to the game and niggas are reaching out. Let me just say the movement is getting stronger because now I have a new alliance with "Above Average". So, if niggas thought it was over last night you've got it twisted. I just got 7 to 8 times stronger and M.E.P is still alive. Sometimes for things to get better sometimes you have to understand losing to make the big win. I'm winning right now and I don't plan on losing anymore. There's enough out here for us all to eat but, it's all about who can get to the table 1st.

Thanks to everyone who made this show a success: Sach, Eddie Numbers, DJ Infame, DJ TNT, TK, KupCake, Panama, Prophet, Vanessa, Gary, Jay, Shink, Marty, Rich, Erica, Tanna, Rob, Omarr, Nigel, Devin, Meechie, Omarr, Smacks, Ed, Quintel, Naya, Jaime, Tashia, Arli, Keyaira, Ray-Vic, Stepp Lo Dolla, DJ B-Eazy, Feedy, Keon, Shayla, Danielle and if I forgot you I apologize because it was so many people who inspired my performance. There aren't enough words to express the feeling of being on that stage last night!

Sincerely Yours,

Japiro -

JAPIRO - PIZZLEMATIC CD RELEASE PARTY THURSDAY, JULY 10TH @ THE BELVEDERE HOTEL 9 P.M.



"HERE I STAND"

As, I let this Usher CD "Here I Stand" play.......I'm going in: The past two weeks have been CRAZY period!!! I ordered the 1st round of cd's for Pizzlematic (Disk1) and they sold faster than a new pair of "Butter's" in the summer of 96'!

Maybe, I underestimated my market sales but, I knew if I sat on this CD long enough it would do exactly what I thought it would do...Create a buzz! Little did I know all those free shows I performed at, all those freestyles and numerous club appearances would now payoff.

Now, I started recording Pizzlematic in late November of last year. I only had a laptop and that didn't belong to me. I sold my iMac and T-Mobile Wing to get a Studio Quality Microphone and USB sound card to have a Home/Mobile studio. The only thing I wanted for Christmas was a Latop. Being 26 years old, you don't have too many wants and requests but, my wish was granted. That laptop had to be the best investment ever.

I made a lot of changes since December of last year. I decided to pursue my solo career and I now manage myself with the help of Rob "Fox" Jackson. It wasn't an easy decision but, I know it's destiny calling me. "Destiny", what a word to use. Destiny made me stay up countless nights, play plenty of Happy Hour's, and Parties across the city when I had no music out there. There was a point when I was dropping every 3 months=4times a year and I didn't even know half of the shit I know now. So, I scaled back and took it to the basics. My nigga Whitten put me up on some game he said, "You can do this shit, all you need is 1,000 cd's and start working from there. You got decent shit, you could quit your job and do this shit full-time. If you love what you do, you can't lose, it's a win-win!"

Taking cue from that conversation, I believe every word he spoke. I watched this nigga sell over 30,000 cd's from the trunk for N.E.K. It seemed harder to sell CD's last time around because they said the climate was wrong. It's not that the climate was wrong, it's the artist that were and still are dropping. The music is just wack period. Concepts, lyrics, passion and energy is what the game lacks and I'm determined to bring that back to the game. I'm letting niggas know right now that there is no artist in Baltimore ready to attack this shit the way I'm about to. If you don't have a copy yet I'm feeling pretty nice right now so, I'm going to give ya'll 7 FREE DAYS TO DOWNLOAD IT....

WARNING..........................WARNING..........................

FREE!!! PIZZLEMATIC (DISK1) DOWLOAD BELOW:


















WILL NAS ETHER 50 CENT?

Yes Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, Nas finally called out 50 Cent!

Nas went in on the G-Unit general. I enjoy every bar that the Queens MC spat on the track "Queens Get The Money" from his much anticipated album Untitled, Nas fires shots at the fellow Queens native. Though he doesn't directly call out 50, it can be assumed from lyrics like this.

"Niggas is still hatin' / talkin that Nas done fell off with rhyming / he'd rather floss with diamonds / they pray please god let him spit that oozie in the army lining that shorty doo-wop rolling oowops in the park reclining take twenty-seven mc's put em / in a line and they out of alignment / my assignment said she said retirement hiding behind 8 Mile and The Chronic / get rich but dies rhyming / this is high science / now add 23 more from Queens to B'more / I'm over they heads like a bulimic on a seesaw / Now that's 50 porch monkeys ate up at the same time"

WOW!!! Is this the pre-cursor to "Ether 2?" 50 better be on his shit because money can't take Nas out his zone. He has never went to war with anyone like Nas. 50 Cent may have bumped heads (pauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse) with Ja Rule, Fat Joe, Jadakiss, The Game, and now Young Buck, Nas has spared with Notorious B.I.G and Jay-Z. There is no question Esco would be his toughest lyrical competition to date. In my opinion, I'm siding with Nas on this one. There would be no 50 Cent without Esco.................Let's Go!!! O, yeah don't forget to buy that Nas album on Tuesday, July 15th. You bastards bought 1 Million copies of Wanye's bootlegged ass album. So you fuckers (no pun intended), can definately support a nigga who actually talks some good shit.

In closing, I would like to thank everyone for your purchases and support. Please come out this Thursday, July 10th to The Belvedere Hotel on 1 E. Chase St Baltimore, MD 21202 and Celebrate with me the release of my new CD Pizzlematic (Disk1). (Disk2) is on the way! Thanks to all the promoter's, artist's, producer's, and DJ's who made this possible. Last but, not least........
BIG THANKS TO: THE ENTIRE ABOVE AVERAGE FAMILY!!!

THE WHITE PARTY WAS A SUCCESS & A.A. ALL DAY -

JAPIRO's "WEEKLY RAP UP"/ "FREAKY FRIDAY"


























KEYSHIA COLE IS SO WAAAAVYY.................











I'm a let my homie Rob go in on ya'll niggas 1st: "Gooooooooooooood Morneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen!!!" Thanks Ye'-

Well, Well, Welcome to the Weekly Wrap Up!!!!A lot of bullshit and Fuggery was def popping off this week lol. Where should I start 1st???? OK the BET awards. They was aight, besides the fact of best video nominee featured two videos that were nominated last year!!!!!! To top it off, Kayne feat. T-Pain Good Life beat out UGK feat. Outkast I Choose You. But, this year UGK won!!!! Now shouts out to Pimp C R.I.P. I aint hating, but how they win this year but didn't win last year!!!!.

Now, I don’t wanna spend all day beating a dead horse but, a lot of the nominees in those catagories shouldn’t have been even mentioned i.e. Eve( she didn’t even release a album). LMAO>>>>(Sorry Rob!!!) Another thing that was on my mind, is the state of music right now. A lot of people are hating on Soulja Boy or D4L or any other snap music dude that had the ring tone game on lock. Niggaz gotta stop hatting. You gotta remember, back in the day people were dancing!!! Shit, just look @ Kid-N-Play them niggaz made like 3 movies that niggaz loved!!! If you a 80's baby, ya'll know what I am talking bout Lmao. Digital Under Ground was dancing even though they had the realest nigga alive out there dancing!!! Shout out to Pac!!! So basically it's history repeating itself. When I am in the club sauced, I don’t wanna hear no shoot em up kill kill shit. I wannna see them broads "Get Silly with it lol. But, dudes gotta quit hating and get money and make hits. If you making good music, people will buy it regardless. Maybe not as much as Weezie F Baby but, they will def cop it cause real recongnize real.

JAPIRO's PIZZLEMATIC(DISC1) IS HERE!!!
(for cd delieveries contact: japiro@att.blackberry.net)


O,K,K,KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY.......The shipment just came in this morning after our morning meeting in our office. Niggas think I'm always on some shit in here but, hey I always am. You have to have multiple hustle's in 2008 if gas is $4 per gallon. My show was the "Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit" in my opinion last night as I ran down 15 mins of "Pizzlematic". The disc actually runs about 60 mins. Yup, I even broke out the A-Milli joint. If you weren't convinced before, you will be after the "Pizzle Experience this time around! This cd is street, it's fresh, it's dope, it's differen't, and it's truly me. Only two features on this work of art (Eddie Numbers & Al Great). I recorded every take, mixed every song, I scored, and arranged the entire thing. Something, that I've never done soley ever because I always had help. This time I'm going in for my hood..."The Vadeo", ya heard me.........................Shouts to MCF (Money Comes First) and all my niggas across B-More who came out last night. Thanks Erica, for taking coming out and taking 30 to 40 pictures last night. I deleted the 10 minute video last night. I'm such a fucking idiot. The longest show performance on tape and I fucked it up because I touched the wrong button. I don't really have too much to say but, I need everybody to come out on July 10th for the "Pizzlematic" Release Party @ The Belevedere Hotel on July 10th.
I'm making history everyday by doing this blog, having a website, and reaching out to other artist' in the city. Matter of fact, if you don't believe me check me out in Target in a few weeks.
I'm not rich and I'm probably not the most known artist in the city but, the Promoters and top RAP niggas here in Baltimore know who I am. Google me, I'm doing my thizang. I'm tired of being humble but, I have to be! I don't sleep, I gotta eat...Get your weight up, and not your hate up.
T.B.U.R.A.
P.S. Don't forget to be @ "The Above Average White Party" next Thursday, July 3rd. I turned down a show to party with my niggas because "I PUT ON FOR MY CITY!"
