Golden Lords!!!
I was watching this movie today..kinda laughing but also intrigued by how much the Golden Lords favor the Vice Lords of Chicago famous gangs. This movie came out around the time gangbanging was at its height in Chicago, even though the movie was highly exaggerated in some waysnit was still a favorite of mine for some odd reason. Good old black cinema gotta love it.
KENLO KEY featured on FIRST LINE RHYME (Welcome to My World)
This is the feature I had on this blogsite One Line Rhyme where they featured my song "Welcome to My World" this is a blog with a cool concept. It features artist's song with the first two lines of the lyrics kinda like hip hop qoutables in the Source. Dope concept...Pleasure to be a part of it. Have to have caught the attention of the site in the first few bars to get a feature...#TeamIntaVention!

K-Love (Chicago Poet's CTA Earrinngs!!)
Chicago's own K-Love who is a powerful spoken word artist known for her powerful pieces makes one of her poems into a physical work of art. The piece is about surviving addressing the struggle that black men and women go through and the sacrifices and process we make like taking the bus. Using her creative black woman "survivor" instinct, K-Love turns her actual CTA bus passes into a beautiful art piece, EARRINGS!!! Check them out here... and on her facebook page is the only place that i know you can find her but look out for these because they will probably hit the market soon! SICK!!!
HERES HER GOING IN ON A PERFORMANCE She's One of my Favorite Poets HANDS DOWN!

MASTER RONALD DUNCAN-BLACK NINJA
Lately I been on a Martial Arts kick for some reason. When i was a shorty I was actually in martial arts (everyone was..or wanted to be..dont front) I was a Bruce Lee fanatic and really enjoyed taking lessons. I even skipped a belt real talk..and got the belts still to prove it...lol...
But Any way that discontinued..but my passion for watching it still lives on. I have a huge collection of kung fu flicks. Matter fact one of my all time favorite movies is THE LAST DRAGON w TAIMAK in it. That movie went hard! Heard they was supposed to remake it btw. But back to the point
This is Ronald Duncan he is a teacher, and master of Ninjitsu and he is a MONSTER. Caught a few of his vids on the net and been a fan every since. Ninjitsu is such a sick assassin type style..this dude straight took the knowledge of it and created like a black ninjitsu style. He is not someone you want to run up on he will wipe the street with you even with a gun! check him out..
"HOW TO GET THE B*#@H3$"...
"HOW TO GET THE B*#@h3$!"
LOL..I WAS DYING LAUGHING AFTER SEEING THIS "IGNANT" DUDE HERE. THIS IS CRAZY. I HAVE A REAL SENSE OF HUMOR. I MAKE SURE I GET MY LAUGH ON EVERY CHANCE I GET..SO WHEN I SEE OR HEAR SOMETHING FUNNY IMA START POSTING IT.
WHATS EVEN MORE TOWARD MY PHILOSPHY IS THE MENTALITY OF DOWNGRADING WOMEN THAT OUR PEOPLE ACCEPTS. THIS IS WHAT SOME GUYS REALLY THINK!!BUT ITS A SHAME SOME FEMALES ALLOW GUYS TO TREAT THEM LIKE THIS..REAL TALK. LETS WORK ON THAT! THAT IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTED AND MAKES US LOOK BAD AS A RACE. "SO NEXT TIME A GUY SAYS TO YOU "AYE SHAWTY!!" PLEASE DONT TURN AROUND SMILING LIKE WHO ME?...ITS ALL ABOUT HOW YOU THINK ABOUT YOUR SELF THAT WILL CREATE HOW OTHERS THINK ABOUT YOU..ST8 UP.
SHOUT OUT TO MANO! THIS WHERE I SEEN IT FIRST ON HIS FB PAGE...BRIGHTEN UP MY DAY..TOO FUNNY..
TIL THEN ..CHUCKLE IT UP..GET YOUR LAUGH ON YALL! MORE FUNNY STUFF TO COME...

KING CHARLES
FROM THE TAKE FLIGHT DVD AVAILABLE ON THE WEBSITE: WWW.FOOTWORKINGZ.COM
KING CHARLES SHOUTS OUT JAPAN, AND MADONNA TOUR REVIEW...
HAD TO POST SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BROTHER KING CHARLES THE MOVEMENT THAT HAS BEEN GOING ONE DUE TO HIM, THE FOOTWORKINGZ AND LADY SOL. BIG S/O TO THEM ALL FOR ALL THE HARDWORK AND DEDICATION THEY HAVE PUT IN THESE LAST FEW YEARS.
IF YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD OF HIM OR THE FOOTWORKINGZ, THEY ARE A GROUP OF YOUNG MEN WHO HAVE TAKEN THE CULTURE OF CHICAGO UNDERGROUND DANCING "FOOTWORKING" TO ANOTHER LEVEL. THEY HAVE COMMERCIALIZED THE 20+ YEAR OLD DANCE CRAZE FROM BASEMENTS AND HOUSE PARTIES OF CHICAGO.
KING CHARLES AND HIS CREW HAVE ACHIEVED MANY MAJOR THINGS SUCH AS ELLEN DEGENERES SHOW, FEATURED ON 106 PARK, BET, AMERICAS GOT TALENT, VERIZON WIRELESS COMMERCIAL, MULTIPLE MUSIC VIDEOS COLLABORATIONS,MOVIE ROLES(CHICAGO PULASKI JONES),TAUGHT DANCING ALL OVER THE WORLD AND KING CHARLES WAS EVEN HAND PICKED TO TOUR THE WORLD WITH MADONNA AS ONE OF HER PERSONAL DANCERS!IVE KNOWN KING CHARLES FOR CLOSE TO 6 OR 7 YEARS NOW AND WE ALWAYS CARRIED A MUTUAL RESPECT FOR EACH OTHERS GRIND AND PASSION FOR THE ARTS. SEEING THAT I USED TO DANCE (YEA, WHO FROM CHICAGO HASNT) AND I RAP..I HAD A LOT IN COMMON WITH THIS BROTHER. HE ALSO IS AN EMCEE, WHICH IS HOW WE ORIGINALLY MET.
LONG STORY SHORT, AFTER ALL HIS ACCOMPLISHMENTS HE HAS DECIDED TO DIG MORE INTO HIS ARTIST SIDE (AND HE IS RIDICULOUSLY DOPE). SO HE AND LADY SOL HITS ME UP AND AFTER A LONG CONVO. IT WAS AGREED WE HAVE SIMILAR GOALS THAT CAN BE UTILIZED AND MAXIMIZED ON BOTH ENDS AND NOW IM HIS PROJECT MANAGER FOR HIS INTRODUCTION PROCESS OF THIS HIP HOP JOURNEY HES TAKING . ALSO BECAUSE OF MY HISTORY WITH DANCERS, I WAS ALSO OFFERED A CHANCE TO WORK BEHIND THE SCENES WITH FOOTWORKINGZ! WHAT A BLESSING..SO NOW...
IM ANNOUNCING THIS BECAUSE WE ARE DEFINATELY LOOKING TO TAKE DANCE MUSIC TO ANOTHER PLATEAU AND WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT! SO PLZ STAY TUNED TO HIM AND THE FOOTWORKINGZ MOVEMENT AND BECOME APART OF THE FWKINGZ MOVEMENT THATS BOUT TO GO DOWN.
HATS OFF TO EVERYTHING FWKINGZ, KING CHARLES AND LADY SOL HAVE DONE AND NOW ITS TIME TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD! ROCK WITH US YALL! MUSIC, INTERVIEWS, AND VIDEOS COMING SOON!
