Is there a special loophole that allows AZN rappers to drop n-bombs because they're the last racial demographic it's vaguely acceptable to mock in polite AmeriKKKan society today, or is it merely a reparation of sorts for the anti-AZN racism peddled by Bun B, Ice Cube, Da Lench Mob et al at the turn of the nineties? I refer you not to the new Katie Got Bandz mixtape for the latest example of this phenomenon because we already know she drops n-bombs like she's auditioning for a cameo on N.W.A's Efil4zaggin, but to Ace B's verse on this new edition to the grand imperial Percy Miller's Bout It Bout It trilogy:
(From that internet; 2014)
Man, the anti-AZN conspiracy has been so real in 2014: Jackie Chain's intended major label single Party Girls got leaked by his former DJ on an unofficial retail EP that had zero promotion and was consequently ignored by 95% of the rap internet; and The Raid 2 has thus-far failed to trouble all those year-end best movie of 2014 lists which do contain such utter tripe as Richard Linklater's 3 hour exploration of how the word ‘like’ has decimated the vocabularies of 95% of all caucasian American males under the age of 25, and Jean-Luc Godard's latest incomprehensible exploration of the inside of his own arsehole... in 3D!
Never has Werner Herzog's "Someone like Jean-Luc Godard is for me intellectual counterfeit money when compared to a good kung fu film" quote felt more germane.
Raid 2 is easily the best movie of 2014
ReplyDeleteWhen/where/what did Bun B say and do?
ReplyDeleteFrom Bun's verse on Cocaine In The Back Of The Ride:
ReplyDelete"Bust a nut on her stomach, wash my dick in her sink
Then buy a 40 at the store from the godamn Chink"
Wonder if that line came up in convo when Bun appeared on Jackie Chain's Parked Outside?
wanted to like these guys, at least calliope popeye based on his #coolrapname but no. well at least it's not the "mature" p he promised 7 years ago ---> http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/music-arts/master-p-cleans-lyrics-hip-hop-world-follow-article-1.243093
ReplyDeleteYeah, this track is definitely the Bout It analogue to Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
ReplyDeletefirst azn with dreadlocks i've ever seen
ReplyDeleteRaid 2 was overstretched for me, not as good as the first one despite (or maybe due to) ramping up the action. Even the first one was going on a bit by the end. (Ducks flying machete blows.)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to know your top 10 films of the year, since these occasional flashes of cinephilia pop up on here from time to time. The Lego Movie shat on most other things I saw this year.

Jack, I liked these. No specific order, mind:
ReplyDeleteUnder The Skin
The Raid 2
The Lego Story
The Babadook
The Rover
Maps To The Stars
Nightcrawler
Wolf Of Wall Street

Best scene of the year was impromptu Mac Dre train party in Fruitvale Station. A moment of sheer joy before the one of the saddest conclusions ever :(
That's not too far off from my personal fave movies of 2014:
ReplyDeleteThe Raid 2

ReplyDeleteI still need to see The Guest.
Now torrenting The Drop / The Rover / Maps To The Stars (btw, are other recent Cronenberg films e.g. Cosmopolis worth watching?). Can't wait to see Under the Skin and Nightcrawler.
ReplyDeleteI saw/liked

Wolf of Wall Street
I saw/disliked

Moore and Cusack are two actors I really can't stand for no real discernible reason. Hats off to Davey C for making them tolerable though.
ReplyDeleteThe Guest is your typical corny and predictable straight to video action thriller, but that dude off Dowton Abbey played an entertaining psycho Jason Bourne
Anyway, Merry Christmas, blud!
Merry xmas too, King Kos!
ReplyDeleteJack - I thought Cosmopolis was great but it's definitely an acquired watch. A Dangerous Method was rubbish, imo.
Wow just saw the raid 2, very intense shit lol. Strange Xmas eve choice on my part
ReplyDeleteHammer Girl on Xmas eve!
ReplyDeleteFeel like Hammer Girl would make a good internet misandrist movement icon: http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2014/103/2/e/the_raid_2__hammer_girl__by_firdaliska-d7e9wv5.jpg
