Ok, so we took pics and videos upstate after two days of being pounded by snow. Orange County is in a state of emergency right now, everything is literally shut down. Here are the pics I took, from Last night to today.

I Hate My Life!!! pt. 3

Here I go taking my 2 and a half hour walk home through the ice cold wind and snow:

 In case you haven't figured, I covered my face because the wind was so intense and I didn't want frost bite. Of course I still been at it with the music, things have been up and down lately. Recently I went to a hiring event at a local supermarket. The job actually seemed descent with pretty good wages and was close to me. So I got there early, before the managers had turned up. I filled the application out and ended up talking to this guy that also filled out an application. After briefly conversing, we decided to ask one of the employee's when the hiring event was taking place. She looked at us all stank and snarled that there was no hiring event but she would take our applications. Bad idea, I said something isn't right, I asked another cashier there and she smiled and said told us the hiring event took place from 4-9 pm. Really?! This bitch straight up lied because she didn't like the look of us. Lady, IT'S WINTER TIME!!! What do expect us to come in a 3 piece suite?! It's a fucking job stocking shelves, get off your high horse.

Music Sucks These Days!!! (Brokencyde, The Millionaires)

Now I've hated mainstream music for a long time. Every time I think it can't get any worse, some band or artist comes out and takes it to a new low. Here are a couple examples:







Now I won't torture with any more of their songs as I'm sure your ears are bleeding by now. Those of you who haven't committed suicide by now, thanks for sticking with me.

Die Antwoord



When I saw this video my reaction was, "WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS!!!!!". But to be perfectly honest, I got hooked on the music instantly. I got their latest album SOS and have been listening to that for days straight. I haven't been this excited about music for a while.

I like music that sort of feels like the place a person is from, in this case South Africa. It has a certain bass heavy, griminess to it, and it's danceable at the same time. Being that they mix Afrikaans, with south African English slang it's a little hard to understand all the lyrics, BUT WHO CARES IT SOUNDS DOPE!!! I can't wait for the US tour.

Here's another one of my favorite videos from Die Antwoord.

K-os

Now, I think K-os is one of the freshest things to happen to music, coming out of Toronto, I think his success says a lot about Canadians taste in music. His versatility is, from what I've seen almost unmatched. Remember these are just my opinions guys, just bigging up an artist I love and saying thank you for caring about the music over money and material gain! Love the production, musical layering, melodies, raps and harmonies, just all around beautiful and soothing, I leave you with the official video of 4321, which I might add is an excellent video, see for yourselves:




L.Vijalanti NYC Drum N Bass Killa

If your tired of whack ass hipster mc's spitting simplistic lyrics with phony British accents over Drum N Bass, then I got the antidote. I love DnB, Jungle and Dubstep with all my heart, I'm not asking permission to blow the spot, don't step in my way. The music needs lyricism as deep as the production and Dj skills out there, at least I think it dose. You disagree, pass me by. I'm not cocky or big headed, I'm a humble, real mothafucka tryna flow with the music. I see nothing wrong with reality driven lyrics. Is there some kind of a rule that says you can't dance to something unless it's entirely superficial? Rhythm is still rhythm your spitting real lyrics or saying "bibbiddabiddaboobiddablabladiddede mc, dj MAKE SOME NOISE!!!" If my music is to depressing for a current NYC Jungle audience, then I guess I don't need to be involved with people that are trying to make a scene soly based on luring coke head, trust fund babies in because they have money. If your only concern is money... THEN WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU GET INVOLVED IN UNDERGROUND MUSIC?!!! GO GET A JOB AT A BANK OR SOMETHING!!!! Anyways, enough ranting... Here's the first sample of my Drum n Bass and Dubstep flows:

Selling Out

I'm going to start by showing two video's with completely opposite perspectives. I think they speak for themselves. First video is from the legendary KRS One speaking about what it means to sell out:



Now the second video is an interview with Paul Wall were I think he epitomizes the mentality that killed Hip Hop:




Now, I'm going to play something of my music:
