It’s time to take the blog to the next level. Well not really, but to add another feature. B-MOORE.NET is going to start a podcast. Stay tuned for additional details. If things go right the first show should be pretty memorable. But if not, it will still be a dope experiment. Not really much to blog about today. Here’s some random thoughts:

• I’m just maintaining a bit. Lil Wayne, best rapper alive? That’s what people are saying. Sorry not while Nas and Jay-Z are still alive.
• I’m materialistic
• Sorry I’m not forgiving (read: stupid)
• “I’m so fly I’m on auto, pilot, while guys just stare at my wardrobe” - Jay-Z
• Don’t take my silence for me not being attentive. I see how people move. I’m always watching.
• People online have an over inflated view of themselves (me included)
• I’m so wack at calling people back, I apologize. I’ll get at you, I promise.
• Yeah I agreed that Lea could have a dog.

What’s up my faithful readers? This is just a friendly reminder that to comment on the site you have to register. Spam bots have been irritating me to no end by having to delete spam messages so often. I apologize but as of now its a necessary evil.

Happy Independence Day. This is the day that we celebrate our freedom from mother England. I just celebrate it because its a free day off. Sorry I don’t take this day off to reflect. Reflect on what? That the freedom they fought for from the Church of England is being trampled upon as I type. I opt to not reflect and enjoy this day off with family friends. After you read this go outside, enjoy the weather (unless you’re in Pittsburgh) and have a good time.

In honor of the first In Case You Missed It Friday’s to fall on the 4th July I thought it would cool to dope the mixtape by the newly released from his Atlantic contract, Saigon. This is a man that needs no introduction so I’m just going to let you get it in and start with the download.

(Michael Washington — Hollywood, SC)

I often wondered what would have happened if I made different decisions. I sometimes question myself and occasionally I think that I might be in a better place if I made those choices. But I also realize that I’ve been placed in my position for a reason that no matter how much I complain, I’m in a real good place. I got a call from my mom and she told me to check Charleston.net and read the front page story. When she said this I had a feeling that I would probably know the person on the front page. Of course I did, Michael Washington got arrested for a string of sexual assaults in the Charleston, SC area. As soon as the image loaded and I saw the picture I was taken aback.

Let me fill you in on the back-story of a black man lost. Michael was connected to my crew of friends via Wesley UMC in Hollywood, SC, Webelos, but most importantly his parents were really close with my Aunt Linda and Uncle Herbert. Of course because of that we would be in the same place and we all bonded as kids. But as kids do, we grow up begin to grow apart but when we saw each other it was always love. Michael’s father was former state Senator McKinley Washington. As a black senator in the south, he pretty much ran Hollywood. You have to understand, Sen. Washington could take a shit in the middle of Hollywood but people would view it as golden straw. Given his background, Mike was never one to live the “thug life” but it was a role he was all too willing to play.

What did tell you guys? I told you that person was going to need us. Never fails, my boy Herm told me this a while ago and I live by this. “Either you going to want to fuck with me, or your going to have to fuck with me”. This person HAS to fuck with us. This person has no other choice. Am I wrong for having the just slightest bit of joy knowing that this person got rejected, maybe. I’ll probably get over this eventually but you don’t screw people over, it never works out in the end. You’re going to have an itch that needs to be scratched eventually.

What do you do to silence your critics when you are already at the top of the game? Crush a London concert that was meant for rock bands. It’s a thing of amazement what we are seeing from Jay-Z now. This is Jordan’s final season with the Bulls. By Jay going across the pond amid criticism from Oasis’ Noel Gallagher and still rock the show is something wonderful. Unfortunetly its become so common for Jay to do things like this that we begin to take it for granted. This is history in the making.
