GHETTO Snack Hall of Fame - Italian Icees


There was nothing more tasty than an Italian Icee when I was growing up. On a hot day getting a nice sugar fake ice cream kick with unnatural flavor was divine. They were so good that you didn't mind that the guy scooping the icee hand's were dirty and it was kind of in your icee when he gave it to you. They were even better because they only cost 50 cents. 50 cents was all you needed to be unhealthy and momentarily happy. Today you would be hard pressed to find any Icee that costs less than a dollar. And today the flavors are uniform and less exotic than they used to be. This pic alone makes my mouth water.

Do You Remember KRS ONE?

I think this is highly appropriate considering the climate ENJOY:

Random Blogging: JAY Z needs to stop hating on AUTOTUNE

Someone needs to tell Jigga that he needs to stop hating on Auto tune. If young kids want to listen to that then so be it. They are trying to eat. Why does Jay think that he needs to be the only person that can make money making records. I actually like Kanye's record but I am not a big fan of Auto tune. But then again I am going on 35 I shouldn't like it. Jay is older than me, he shouldn't give a fuck about the rest of the teenage contingent and what they like. He should fall back and let these young men and women eat. dude you are already fucking Beyonce you can't let anyone else live?

RE - RE - ENTER THE 36 CHAMBERS

Apparently I have been reading Harry Allen's blog way too much because I keep coming up with stuff to blog about afterwards. This time is no exception. After perusing his blog, I saw his post on alternate Wu Tang album covers. Apparently, some art guy, Logan Walters decided that the original Wu Tang album covers were not good enough to have in his IPOD so he made up some new ones combining WU pictures and Blue Note Iconic Jazz covers. Some of them were okay and some of them were awesome. The ones that I particularly liked you can see, for more click here.

Random Sightings - Corey Glover


Do you remember the boy Corey Glover? The lead singer from Living Color? I ran into him the other day. He is actually married to a former colleague of mine so he was really cool. I told him that he was the reason why I ever wore spandex and listened to rock music. He even indulged me long enough to let me try and recite the Malcolm X intro on "Cult Of Personality". Corey Glover - yet another victim Of Harlem Hubris' Celebrity Random Sightings. Shouts go out to Y. Salgado.
For those of you that need a refresher on Corey Glover and the group that he fronted, Living Color, here is the video that made white and Black people realize that Blacks can rock just as hard as anyone else. ENJOY:

Archie to jump the broom?


After reading my homegirl's website Our Urban Odyssey I find out that Archie Andrews, the red headed, freckle faced Riverdale dwelling young man is planning to get married to longtime girlfriend Veronica Lake. I admit it, I read the occasional Archie comic as a child. Contrary to popular belief it wasn't JUST for girls. Think about it every page you had a joke, a shirt showing a tit and an ass in your face. And of course all red  - blooded boys would love to live a life where you must choose between the rich, spoiled and domineering brunette Veronica that looks like she puts out or the middle class, docile and BLONDE Betty that looks like she will just let you get to third base and tease you until she really gives it up to Reggie or Jughead on a drunk night! Here's the cover that I first saw on, must plug once again, Our Urban Odyssey.

THE WATCHMEN - TOO SMART A MOVIE FOR DUMB AMERICA!



Maybe ten years ago "The Watchmen", a movie based on a comic book would have been a movie that could have been understood by the masses. But not today in 2009. When America is steeped in dumbness as evidenced by Tyler Perry's Madea goes to jail and Paul Blart Mall Cop both being number one at the box office two weeks in a row, The Watchmen is just the right movie at the wrong time. Clocking in at almost three hours (2:40 R.T.) this comic book movie was too full of ideas and not enough of action for the people today.

Granted I did see it at the most ghetto theater on Earth (The Magic Johnson Movie Theater) but I am sure if I saw it anywhere in Hillbilly America those inbreds would have a hard time understanding the theme, the messages and the subtleties of a movie like The Watchmen. I am sure kids that thought they were going to see a film with wall to wall action (Think MAtrix) were extrememly dissapointed when they saw a film with 80's references that they just were too young to pick up.

To be fair, The Watchmen could have been trimmed down but since the length was tied to the screenwriter's loyalty to the comic book, I could let that go. Acting wise the worst was the chick. She obviosly is better at fellatio than mis en scene because she was horrible in the film. Seeing a Well - hung, swinging limp Blue Dick several times was a bit much - NO HOMO AND NO PUN but all in all The Watchmen was a good film for the snobby comic book nerd. For the non ghetto geeks not so much.

For those that didn't like it don't fret - Transformers 2 will be out soon.

the illest villain - the joker!


of all the villains in the comic sci - fi world, the joker is the illest.

he has no origin, no reason to be the way he is but that's just what makes him great. that's what makes him the illest.

he's smart and deadly and a comic riot. nothing is better than the way he kills somebody and then tells a joke about it. heath ledger played the hell out of him in the dark knight movie. rest in peace, heath.

Can we talk about..cartoon pussy?



Now listen we all have thought about it: If I were a cartoon and had a chance to screw another cartoon character I would screw...
Well tonight I want to nominate Lady Jaye from G.I. Joe. I know what you are saying, "come on roc that's flint's girl." Look, I am not trying to jam up Flint but I have a thing for a chick that looks good, is athletic and can throw some of those explosive sticks from her backpack. I'm sorry call me crazy but i want Lady Jaye to yell "Yo Joe" for once in my life without her talking about Cobra.
