Drama on the DMX 'UNDISPUTED' Tour 6/8/12

Wherever "X" goes drama seems to follow. The highly anticipated book 'The Man Who Walked the Dog' penned by Yonkers own @jeromeenders [as told by DJ Superior] is the center of rapper DMX's most recent controversial altercation.

Last night Yonkers own DJ Superior was snuffed by an entourage member of DMX after a heated argument over the book ‘The Man Who Walked the Dog’ in which DJ Superior exposes the real DMX. This altercation was during the 2nd stop of the ‘UNDISPUTED’ Tour at Northern Lights/Albany NY. More details to follow.

@TROYAVE NINO BROWN [Official Video] #Brooklyn

@TROYAVE NINO BROWN [Official Video]This is an awesome depiction of where the #Brooklyn born recording artist @TroyAve is heading in his career. The raw grittiness of this video embodies the artist's sound and music. The coined phrase, "POWDERRR.." from the Bricks in my Backpack series has captured the attention of Urban music fiends from here to Maine to Spain. Stay tuned. ~Ghotti

The mind of a blogger

Who really knows what goes on in the mind of a blogger. Who really cares, as long as you're entertained right. Most people blog about their day, or their cat, or maybe even their job. Me, I blog about things everybody wants to say, but nobody ever actually says. Like the rude old lady, you just wanna tell "#### you #####" when she doesn't say "Thank You" when you hold the door for her. Or saying "dude, who gives a ####" to the obnoxious gay guy in the front of the line at starbucks, who can't be any louder while waiting for his mocha latte. The point is, I say what you want to say. In fact, I wonder what you would say if you let your mind go free and not have to worry about maintaining your pretentious lifestyle and reputation?

What's the matter with the world,  why does everything have to be so damn politically correct? I just think it would super dope for a day if you could just come out of your face and just say whatever the #### was on your mind. That would be the dopest day then, we'd all go home and blog about it.

WHY CAN'T THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMEN SEEM TO KEEP A MAN?


WHY CAN'T THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMEN SEEM TO KEEP A MAN?

Hello everyone! I am back! yes it's me, Bernard Kinsey, here to voice my opinion about all the things that are on my mind...well not all the things but you understand, dont you? Lol! Anyways, let me start off by thanking all those who took the time to read my first blog and leave an opinion about it. Whether you loved it or hated it your comments are greatly appreciated. Also, I wanna thank my partner Don Ghotti for the opportunity to blog because he could have chose someone else, so thanks for taking a chance with me. Now, that I got all my humbleness and gratefulness out of the way, now let me get down to the task of being the witty, opinionated, charming asshole I was brought here to be, lol!
Today's blog is about women...beautiful women...well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder but by many standards women like Halle Berry and Kim Kardashian are considered very beautiful, successful women who seem to have it all going for them. With that being said, why I ask, do these two seem to have the hardest time keeping a man? Let's start with Halle. Christopher Williams, Wesley Snipes, Dave Justice, Eric Benet, The dude from Barbershop and For Colored Girls...she even left black men alone and dated some white supermodel and had a kid by him. Actors, baseball players, singers, models, Halle's dated them all and the result has ALWAYS been the same...her relationships ending and Halle being accused of being a crazy, pitiful yet pitiless, over demanding, overemotional wreck of a woman! Now keep in mind, I have never met Ms. Berry(as Hurricane Chris would call her) and to be fair, the men she dealt with may have been just as equally outta their mind. But let's face facts, Halle has a terrible track record when it comes to men in relationships and if it's not her, maybe it's the men she is choosing which means her choices suck elephant ass hair! I mean damn, Halle, you been choosing the wrong men since you was two stepping in Jeff Redd videos! Lol!
Now, Kim Kardashian AKA Kimmy the Black C*ck Slayer AKA The Armenian Ass Clapper AKA for all my beauty, body and looks no man wanna wife me! lol! I'm just playing...maybe! But seriously, ever since Kim came(no pun intended) into the forefront as Ray J's co-star in what was probably the most BORING celebrity sex tape ever, she has had or been linked to a slew of men. Ray J (who owes his career, whatever the hell it is he does, to her), Reggie Bush, a Dallas Cowboy, an international soccer star, Kanye West, and maybe a couple of others that I don't know about. While Kim, doesn't have the reputation of being a mad woman in relationships, she does have a rep for being relatively, um, how can I put this, EASY1 Now, to the same respect, I've never met Ms. Kardsahian, and I don't know to what extent her relationships were to these men. She's been described as a relatively nice girl. But the the facts are the facts...every one of those relationships with the exception of Reggie Bush seemed to be relatively quick one off where she ended up as simply a notch on some running back's, rapper, or other sportsman's belt. Oh, yeah, and Ray J!
Now don't get me wrong, this isn't a blog to down either one of these women. It's just we as quote unquote "regular" guys seem to have this misconception that just because a woman is incredibly beautiful that she is this goddess that has no flaws. How many of y'all said to yourself "Eric Benet stupid...why that negro gonna cheat when he got Halle Berry?" Well Halle is human and we have no idea how Halle is behind closed doors and when the camera is off. Same with Kim. She seems to be a nice girl who like many nice girls may let the wrong men take advantage of her kindness. I really don't know. I just hope that these two, as well as, other beautiful, strong, successful women can find happiness not only with a mate, but within themselves. Didn't i end that shit nice? Lol! This is Bernard and I'm out...y'all take care.

A moment in time w/ CARVIN "Ransum" HAGGINS & IVAN "Orthodox" BARIAS / @carvinhaggins & @doxortho

A moment in time w/ CARVIN "Ransum" Haggins & IVAN "Orthodox" Barias

What do you ask the multi-platinum selling music producers / songwriters who make nothing less than "timeless" music for today's hottest recording artist??? When you add the fact that they serve on the Board of Governors for the Philadelphia Chapter of The Recording Academy, and most recently became the creative ambassadors for the city of Philadelphia, the pressure to have a dope interview intensifies. This was a major task, but a task that I had the pleasure of being faced with yesterday afternoon as I prepped for my interview.

Carvin "Ransum" Haggins & Ivan "Orthodox" Barias were both born & raised in the city of Brotherly Love and later crossed paths in the mid 90s at DJ Jazzy Jeff's studio called A Touch of Jazz. Over the next 15 years they were responsible for some of the biggest records for Jazmine Sullivan, Jill Scott, Justin Timberlake, Mario, Chris Brown, Ledisi, Raheem DeVaughn, Keyshia Cole, Jaheim, Floetry, Skillz, Ace Hood, Rick Ross.


In this moment in time with two of music's most influential producer/songwriter duo you'll hear their secrets for writing some of their biggest records, their personal thoughts on the state of music/entertainment today, as well as their exciting new record label Forever Music Inc!

The Top (5) FIVE reasons MEN shouldn't take COOCHIE as a V DAY Present !!!


Whats going on everyone! I'm kinda new to this whole blogging thing so bear with me OK? now I admit. I speak and pull very little punches...some of what I say may be crude, politically incorrect, unpolished, opinionated, biased and/or straight up unbearable...but that would make me no different than that damn tea party wouldn't it? lol! Anyway that's another subject for another time...TODAY, I am gonna speak on the top 5 reasons us men, shouldn't take coochie as a v day present. I know what some of y'all saying already...WHAT? DON'T ACCEPT NO P_SSY, THIS DUDE RIGHT HERE CRAZY AS HELL! OR GAY ONE! WHAT THE HELL THIS FOOL TALKING BOUT? TURNING DOWN GOOD COOCH! whoooah, calm down kemosabie, I'ma explain why u shouldn't fall for that trick...

#1....Fellas, imagine ya lady showing up to the crib on Valentine's Day, u have no gift, no present, no surprise, nothing for her but a card and Mr. happy down below tied in a bow and u saying HERE IS YOUR GIFT! she may take it...if y'all been together 4 a while but she gonna see u as the sorriest most selfish insensitive and thoughtless prick ever who put no time and effort into a valentine's day gift. Now if we looked at in that esteem if we were to offer nothing but d_ck to our woman, why don't we think the same way when she say in there with a hallmark card and some cooch we oughta be used to? which brings me to #2

#2...A gift is usually something we don't get often or seen as a surprise...a new car is a gift, a new home is a gift, a vacation, new clothes...hell a cutlery set is a gift! its a surprise and something u aren't used to...with that being said, if you've been with a woman for a while, her love below, no matter how good should be something u get on a regular basis...with that being said, what kinda gift are u getting if get it every other day or whatever ya sexual habits are? but then again, a lot of my married friends say sex is close to null in their life so i guess there are SOME exceptions! lol!

#3...Even if u get her a small gift and she gives u some coochie to say thanks, she still comes out on top in the deal because she gets two gifts...the one u bought her and some sex while u just get sex...doesn't sound too fair to me! lol!

#4...Wouldn't your woman get sick and tired of getting the SAME gift every holiday, birthday, etc? well getting coochie every v day takes the work away from them having to come up with a thoughtful gift...think about it, we as men go to the store wondering what does she like? what size does she wear? will she like this? maybe i should get that...etc...so why shouldn't SHE have to go through the same process? WHAT DOES MY MAN WANT? SOME P-SSY...OH THAT WILL BE SIMPLE ENOUGH! LOL!
AND FINALLY...DUH DUH DUH DUUUUUH!

#5 Men like to feel appreciated for the efforts that we put in making our women happy. most of what we do is to make sure that our woman, wife, girl, etc is treated to the best that we can offer...we as men need to make it valentines day more than just on the 14Th of February and if u have a man that caters to you like that, why not cater to him for just ONE day? AND give him some coochie to top it off? LOL!

Ok, people, that the end of my blog...hope u enjoy i, hate it, agree with it, disagree with it, hate it to death, just don't ignore it! wanna thank Don for allowing me to voice my opinion on his site and I thank y'all...next blog...BREAKING DOWN THE SCIENCE, SKILL, AND COMPLEXITY OF A WAKA FLAKA FLAME SONG! LMAO! just kidding....maybe! take care...

The Maturation of the @DonGhotti MIXTAPE Series!!!


All good things MUST come to an end.
When I first started this mix tape series back in January of '09 I had no idea that I would end up with 5 installments of some of Indie music's most talented human beings. Initially, I wanted to create a collage of music from all of the people I'd interviewed from my Podcast, but it later blossomed into a series that would fit nicely in any music lovers collection.

Volume 1

The series started where I created a storyline that mirrored an actual trip that I'd took from Atlanta to Los Angeles, then on to New York City and finally back home to Atlanta. When you listen to the skits, you will understand that the music that plays on the tape is actually what I'm listening to on my Ipod Touch during the trip. As I pull the earphones out of my ears and speak, the dialogue is the actual skits. The play list was quickly filled when my music industry friends and resources sent records on behalf of their clients for placements. I then worked alongside budding A&R prospects as well as my friend and engineer DJ EzE to piece the project together in a record 2 weeks. I finally completed the first tape. I worked the marketing and manufacturing magic behind the scenes then launched my first listening party. See the pics HERE !!!

Volume 2
With volume 1 in the bag my mind wouldn't allow me to relax.
I hopped a plane to LA in February during the Grammies and sought inspiration for yet another volume. I still had a huge surplus of records from the first volume which I never used. I wanted this second tape to be a collage of West Coast inspired music. This trip would give me just the vibe to complete it [Click HERE to see my Westside pix]. I spent most of my time in Beverly Hills, cruising down Sunset vibing and listening to Indie music riding shotgun alongside my recording artist Otis Lee. This trip to LA was the perfect medicine needed to complete this tape. I know I'm getting a little ahead of the story, but click HERE to view the pix from my next Listening Party for volume 2. Next on to New York City.... Swoosh!!!

Volume 3
The flight landed safely at Kennedy Airport.
I grabbed my bags and exited to my waiting car service. As I rode through the gritty city I was instantly inspired to make an edgier tape that embodied Urban Indie Street Music. I opened the door to my apartment in the city, dropped my bags, and hit the showers. Fresh out the water, I bundled back up and caught a cab to the Virgin Mega store for the midnight release of Ryan Leslie's debut LP. Think I'm just making this up, well click HERE to see my NYC pix. During this trip I was still promoting volume 1, therefore I was off to my NYC Release Party at Negril Village. My big Homies Big Ced & DJ Music Rocka held me down righteously. DJ Music Rocka spun volume 1 from reel to reel during Ladies night [Thursday]. Again I know I'm getting ahead of myself, but after volume 3 you'll hear me exiting NYC LGA airport back home to my city of Atlanta, but in real life I went on to Washington DC. Click HERE to see the pix from volume 3's release party back in Atlanta.

Volume 4.1 & 4.2
Volumes 4.1 & 4.2 began the Maturation of the Don Ghotti brand.
This was my opportunity to end the storyline and began the opportunity to educate my listeners with quotes between the music. I also broke up the disc set to change up the monotony of the traditional mix tape that the listeners are used to. I'll admit I was quite burn out with producing mix tape projects which means I almost DID NOT drop this project. I didn't even do a release party to promote it. For that, I would like to formally apologize to my fans, "I APOLOGIZE!!"

Volume 5
The Beginning
The End???
This project will be my Magnum Opus.
Volume 5 is the True Maturation of the Don Ghotti brand.
The only way to find out what this project has in store is to simply tune in, the Release Date/Party is slated for October 16th, 2010 [My Birthday weekend] in Los Angeles, California. The final question remains,
WILL YOU BE THERE???
