So, many of you have questioned my absence from the blog scene recently.
Well today, I will use a blog to explain that, see the multitask in action? aite fugg it, here's the deal.
So i'm still in westbubblef*ck [for those of you who don't know im in Tulsa for an internship, have been for a while now] and i am staying at the University of Tulsa...go figure...
anyway, i am in an on-campus apt. [the grey between the harbors and harkness hall], and i was connected to the university internet.... so. being a REGULAR COLLEGE STUDENT, i have LIMEWIRE on my laptop and have had it for a while.....
well when i got my rent bill for july....985 bucks...i paid and the lady says "You still owe 250..." dude I was like huh?..... she says they charged me for HAVING ILLEGAL DOWNLOADING SOFTWARE so long story short...I won't be writing too much until i scoot my lil ass back to theeast coast lol... sorry people...
but my folks @ goadometalk.blogspot.com hold it down consistently anyway... and DC to BC.... so coming soon you can expect

AND ILL BE TAKING VOTES FOR THE BEST HBCU CONTEST!!!!!!! OWOOWWOWOWO (Hampton will be number 1 regardless sooooooooo erryone else will be vying for the number 2 spot...)
I came across Barbie in a weird kinda way....and here it goes...
so remember that I posted on the whole Marky/Wale situation?
well...I also post my blogs on my facebook as a note and here is what she had to say:
"WE ALL ARE FROM DC!so we NEED to support ALL and EVERYONEwho comes from here!iam not on either side i mess wit both"
...and continues...
"Every1 crying here crying there! Geesh ppl! Let's unite and kill every1 else! Let's put DC on this map! "
.....now im looking @ my blackberry like, "what a patriotic spirit! lls"
so you know i had to interview her. and I got some phly phlicks that she has taken after the jump....
but first...the VIEW with the talented and tantalizing (sp) Barbie
Me: So first, explain why you said what you said earlier in regards to the Studio 43 situation?
Barbie: Well...me and Marky are cool, and I have done a couple shoots with him and I think that the situation is abuncha CRAP! lol I like'em both [marky and wale] but it's just a crud situation
Me: Yea I feel the same way but what's done is done. now, for the BIG question....digital or film?
Barbie: Digital, but I have worked with film, it's much more fun with film :]
[I agree, its more fun with film. Cause you can go back and watch your faces.....oh, wrong typa film]
Me: Well it seems like you gotta big tie to music, are you a big fan of hiphop?
Barbie: No, not really [no one is anymore], I LOVE [not a promotion for the club] all kinds of music. YES....even country lol but I do lissen 2 it
Me: Okay, so gimmie you're {good, bad, and ugly} of musick today, wht do you think is good [that nigga Drake shit is cool. did you know he was on degrassi?], wht do you think is bad [R&B, how many times can i lose my breath and beat?], and what is ugly as shit [lil Boosie or crunchy black? i think it's the same person]?
Barbie: I dont believe in ugly music, [really?] yes really. I don't because seriously some song i dont like, some1 in this world will like it. U dnt agree?
Me: I agree. You've opened my eyes to a whole new world [a magic place i never knew]! lol Who are your fav. artists out right now. Whatchu lissenin' to while you takin phly phlicks?
Barbie: Artist right now....mmmm....Janelle Monae [Hampton woman], Santogold, NERD, MIA [sri lankan sexxie], Esthero, and any new artists (iam not good with names lol) and of course while I am editing....I throw on some Billie Holiday or good ol' salsa [merengue is better, im dominican so maybe that's why i feel that way lol]....
Well ain't that just a mesh of good ol' STUFF! lol
Some people say the musick a person lissens to reflects the listener...so she's like a symphony directed by Babyface, composed by pharell, with Duke ellington contributing.
DAMN! lol
Thank you Senorita Bibiana for zee VIEW....
and you can check her stuff out ooooor get in contact with her for a shoot @....
To the ladies around D.M.V., this dude MARKY, recent signee to SRC/Universal, is the mu'fuggin' mack daddy cooka monga! Angie Ange and crew would agree [love pluggin' mah peoples].
If LL Cool J was from D.C., I assure you, he would still be lite skinned rockin' fresh clothes [includin' the occassional addidas sweatsuit, a la cool j and rundmc, quite fresh], makin the girls juice and mess up their True's, cept for his name would be MARKY!
and just like Cool J defended himself from dudes like Kool Mo Dee and Canibus who tested his respect, past couple days he been dealin' with the same situation all his own, in opposition to a certain C'monwelth dweller. So i promised a [Waleless] interview....hehe....no seriously
SOO HERE IT GO!
Me: aye u gotta minute for that quick interview?
Marky: yeah, wats good
Me: Well for this one, no wale questions lol. The first and most important question...you cameoed in nelly's video for "stepped on my j's". Did you step on nelly's j's? Hit'em the rick james "FUCK YO J's NIGGA!"?
Marky cameos in his Universal labelmate, Nelly's, new video for "Stepped on my J's"
Marky: hahahahaha...naw son not at all. I actually tried to bargain with him so he'll give them to me. But they sending me a pair so I aint trippin lol
Me: Can u tell us what kind...or are they some one of a kind Air Marky's...and what are yah fav kicks by the way. [43ntourage is known for the shoe game] Marky: Im not gettin any EXCLUSIVE joints, just some of the packages Jay's and some limited addition NIkes. Im not a "Sneakerhead" - I just like what I like ya know? My favorite shoe right now are my 23's, but Im def feeling my SB Dunks cuz they're THE most comfortable shoe EVER in life (Shouts to Nando for gettin me hip). But i really dont have a favorite, I just do whatever the vibe is for the day bro.
Me: Yea I'm sittin in the [slams] as we speak lol...now continuin w nelly...I know u follow in some of his footsteps along w/ ll cool j's as far as pullin the lady fans...what else inspires u to "get ur lovin on" on the tracks and who do u look to for guidance?
Marky: uhm...mainly my relationship with females period. Thats where my inspiration comes from ya know? The only difference I feel as far as the way i depict it on my album (Hate Is The New LoVe [not a promotion for the club]) is that I paint pictures of the whole mindstate "I Hate to LoVe yo ass girl..." type feel. My shits like movies...I get inspired by movies tho as well. Especially the funny break up comedies such as "The Break-Up" and "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" - like the guidence is all around me. I just refuse to come off corny with it lol
["40 Year Old Virgin" and "Knocked Up" were pretty awesome too Marky. Jeez]
Me: Haha. Kudos. So I know you workin on the album and you more than likely gon be on scream tour once again after smashin in yah debut last summer, what else can fans expect from marky? You travelin' with the circus, u goin to jail? Or u startin a clothin line too? Lol
Marky: you are hilarious lol [that's what the girls say after spit my game]...we gotta take you on the road son [as an artist, i aint no damn comedian. "women be SHOPPIN"]. But uhm...expect tours, expect the SUMMERTIME SMASH "SHEILA" all over the place and WORLD. Im in talks of a over sea's tour and spot dates in Russia [take the North Face nigga, and get me some wholesale] and so forth. Expect Marky everywhere rockin his DC cap like the baseball player he is at heart lol [hey black baseball players are one of a kind lol]. I dont think jails in the cards for me...**Hold ya head Duane, Demetrius, Spanky, Fatso, and everybody else behind them bars. Cloting line...eh, no but we (Studio43) have something up our sleeve. Expect a LoVe Fest coming to a bedroom, fiesta, cookout, home, job, and everywhere else near YOU!
Me: do you have any prospects on other rappers from dc that could make a splash in the industry in the near future (besides me lol)
[Red Carpet EP still avaliable for free download @ theredcarpetep.blogspot.com] Marky: Hells yeah!!! This new wave or lil network of artists [specifically me...and maybe Mouse, and Nando's cool too lol] from the area is definitely the future of this game. We are a breathe of fresh air out here! I do believe that we all are unique in our own way. Outsiders are interested about us. So we're all the future prospects in my eyes!!! Pretty soon, we can do NO WRONG!
Me: Well its been nice tlkin w/ u. If u got ne songs that the label aint got they hands on and u want the people to hear it send it to me so I can be the nexx great internet mixtape djay lol...and if u gotnething else u wanna say go head and this interview'll be a wrap
Marky: ok bet. Shouts to 43! And the whole entire DMV!
Me: Oooo and yea get me a spot on tour...comic relief out here lol...see if could works some shows out for u down HU when the school year start. We got the PRETTY [B-word referring to females used in rap songs]'s
Marky: aight STAMP DAT!!!! lol Lets get it!
OUTTIE!!
**all phrases emcompassed in [ ]'s are editorial inputs**
D. Floyd released the "Almost Famous EP" last winter, now, I stop and talk with him to see what's going on, and what we can be expecting from him real soon.
the Boss. Prince of DC.
Track 11 from Almost Famous
Me: d[emolish the haters] floyd lol what's good u gotta minute for a quick interview?
D. Floyd: of course, but u gotta promise me u will push it.yall niggas got this blog shit on lock [well thank you floyd, shouts to tuck!]
Me: ooo yea i got u, and no marky/wale commentary for this one [lol]
D. Floyd: ok
Me: now for the first and most important question
lakers or celtics?
D. Floyd: celtics..i always go with the underdog..fuck kobe snitch ass
Me: haha, now i kno u identify with the "underdog" character in your musick..the "from nothin' to somethin' theme" in my opinion, u merge that very well with the idea of success
D. Floyd: i gotta get success first [this nigga HUNGRY!]
Me: how do u embody struggle and survival and do it so well
D. Floyd: i guess cuz i been around it my whole life.when something is real the audience can tell but when its put together it almost seems forced
Me: do you think there's alot of "forcin'" goin on in the industry right now?
D. Floyd: hell yeah.we as rappers have this insecurity about ourself.so with that in mind its easy 2 see the ones who r a lil unsure thats why they borrow and imulate so heavily the ones that are already proven favorites.we fear not being valued for ourselves so we become someone else
Me: well u seem to have a very keen sense of awareness...something that's missing in the game today... how do u plan to use it goin' on into ur future projects? and what pitfalls have u overcome to help you build that awareness?
D. Floyd: i think life is a game d.when we first learn sports we mock our favorite players and watch their wins and losses and we learn what to do and what not to do.thats all im doing watching close.my baby taught me that.she raised me to watch and listen but to say what i feel.i just recently lost her.watching her die was the hardest thing i ever had 2 do.but it again taught me to watch and give everything time.so right now im watching..and wat a show this is homie
Me: u damn right well i gott asay this is def on the top half of my interviewin' man u offer alotta insight fans gon' appreciate it speakin' of fans, what's up next for d. floyd? and how can i get songs to leak so i can become i famous internet mixtape djay lol
D. Floyd: whatever u need let me know..im actually recording the top half of my new album now.hopefully to be complete and out by august but im putting a sextape out early july..just a complation of my favorite sex songs including some funny skits with some of my old sex partners..aka my advertisement..lol
Me: hahaha yes i have to say u have the BEST promotional team ever like the Best literally
D. Floyd: y u say that?
Me: cause some of the girls ive seen u wit...just fine examples of "DAMN!" lol
D. Floyd: oh hold up..lol..u got them bitches [yea i'ma pimp lol]..no offense bitches..what up real women..
