Public Service Announcment: Increase the Peace
And not the kind that delete's ya peeps. (c) Obie Trice
Funny that Mike would reminisce on some love movement shit today. Last night at the club, mothafuckas outside start screamin and pushin each other. Someone got shoved into me. I just looked at the dude shovin people, held up two fingers and was like "Increase the Peace, man." Homeboy started shoving me. "Go across the street before I punch your ass." "All I said was Increase the peace, man, how you gonna punch me for wantin to be peaceful?" "If you want this shit to stay peaceful you better go across the street. I'm gonna give you 5 seconds" I watched him count down to 0 and of course there's no real climax to this story other than the dude sat there thwarted by a kid half his size. I mean, I kind of figured if it would be way too ironic if he fought me for saying peace that it just wouldn't be possible. That would be some GNARLY SHIT.
I always wondered if hot headed mothafuckas like that go home, sober up in the morning and look at themselves in the mirror on some "I'm a dumbass" Charles Barkley shit. Cuz I guarantee some mothafucka had a nice bark one night. UNTIL THEM SIGNS GO UP IN THE AIR! THATS HOW THE FIGHT STARTS!
Sometimes I want to hire a bodygaurd to LEGALLY whoop some peoples ass. Maybe one day when I'm eatin off Mike and Smizzy's record deal. lol.
Back to your regularly scheduled program... Soulful Sundays!
Here's one of my favorite old school soulful jams. I think it fits the story well.
"Every time we go out man... we always get in... total FUCKDOWN..." lmao.

Soulful Sundays: Kool and the Gang - Summer Madness
When my Mom tells me stories about stuff she used to do in College and such, it makes me wish I lived in the 70's sometimes. She said that everything was soooo peaceful, and not just because everyone was smoking opium or whatever hahaha. She said that you really could just do something fun EVERY single weekend ANYWHERE without having to worry about someone fighting, or shooting, or cops breaking it up. Everyone was on some Love Movement Shit. This song to me represents that, SUPER serene, SUPER chillax, SUPER summerTIME. Cats used to just post at the A & W drive-in, or the skating rink parking lot, or just at someone's crib, and whoever had the best system would just turn it up, and they would be out there ALL night.
Take me Back..
Soulful Sundays: Jon B - 4 Track Mix(They Don't Know, Whatcha Say Boo, Shine, R U Still Down)
I'm feeling nostalgic today, so I decided I'm going to throw some circa 90's and a few other Vintage darts onto the board today. Starting with THIS MAN...
NONE OTHER THAN THE GREAT JON B.
He was the shit in the 90's and his cd Cool Relax was the first cd I ever owned at the age of 10. "They Don't Know" of course was the lead single off the album. His first video from it, and a hella dope song. This was the cut in 97-98.
My PERSONAL favorite off the album, and the best video too, "Whatcha Say Boo(I Do)." Very powerful video and it express a few social issues within it too, read between the lines BOPPERS!!
Now this song, "Shine," was dope too. I feel like it should have had a video as well, or been one of the singles off the album, but the next song was the clear choice..
That song being "R U Still Down" with none other than the late, great, Tupac Amaru Shakur. This song still to this day is one of my all time favorite songs. It's unfortunate that Pac didn't get the chance to make the video with Jon, but nonetheless his presence is felt in it.
This entire album will be on repeat if you play it. You can rock to every single song on it. I haven't had a chance to listen to his recent album that drop last year, but I'll do that soon.
Enjoi! Welcome to Soulful Sundays.
