now that i'm in 2007; high time i started to make this blogg what i envisioned; essentialy, i wanted to keep this one for my music and art related reviews; I had so much trouble publishing to it in 2006 that i never got it off the ground; seems, blogger.com has improved on it's interface, esp., the link to google.com accounts..so here we go;first a bit of shout out..like i'm an old school dread..meaning i never twisted or beauty saloon ting my dreads..i just let nature take its course; well, i changed that today..and went to my daughter's shop ..NAPPY or Not Inc, at 411 E 18th Suite F, Oakland California, 510 835 7838, and Kristen (stylist) did a right fine job of twisting my new growth into my existing locs..and made a few new ones..and oil'd my head..i really look pretty..
anyhow..
the above work is a quick study of did of JB Rap..follow the link to get the full bio..on the brother, suffice to say, he is a very clever and entertaining rapper in the Oakland California area;
for me, his rap comes forward cause he is openly bi/gay or what not..and i can appreciate the sexual openness of his points of view;
