my very awesome friend emilio rojas showed me this epic series of videos a couple months back on a night spent laughing till i cried watching all sorts of youtube vids and eating dominican food. been meaning to post it for ages, and since i hear a whole bunch of drunk kids quoting it ll the time, i thought i bloody better put it up...

and here is the link to 'Phaze One', a project by Emilio and my darling melbourne based super talented producer friend MPhazes. first single 'So Many' feat. Illy (also melbourne based) is pretty dope. lowkey and easy listening.

love ya fellas!

TROUBLE

2011-04-18T11:30:00.001-07:00

This is yours truly and Trouble Andrew sitting on tiny couches at SXSW............ aaaaand my favourite song off his 'trouble gang' mixtape.

SO MUCH

2011-03-25T11:46:00.000-07:00

March has been action packed so far. i went to the south by southwest music convention in austin texas, caught up with bff MPhazes from australia and invaded his/his agents hotel room for 3 days, hung out with boogielind (x-ecutioners), mela machinko, pharoah monch, jean grae, mr len, talib queli, statik, emilio rojas, and made some new contacts. and i got drunk. very drunk. for most of the time.
also linked up with trouble andrew (crunk rock extroadinaire and santigold's man) and a couple of the coolest kids from his trouble gang which was awesome, and only really happened because i got to austin 9 hours before mphazes and the trouble boys were only happy to have me tag along with them.
rolled back into nyc to dive straight back into work, but last night went to the trouble andrew album leak party which was FREAKIN AWESOME. i've never really known much about this particular genre of music, and regardless of the fact that there were BARE hipsters there, i've totally fallen in love with the scene.
afterwards i had a meeting with mr. boomtown ('duurtiest hiphop director in the south') as homegirl tamia from melbourne had put me onto a modelling casting earlier in the day, and it went rather well. needless to say, i got very drunk. standard.
so much for my week of not drinking... i think i made it 2 days...

oh yeah! and i very briefly met stunnaman at sxsw (he as affiliated with the trouble gang), which had me a lil startstruck - because i LOVE The Pack) - and means i am one step closer to meeting my future husband lil B.
i'm not even going to say anything to him when i eventually meet him. i'm just going to run up to him, hold his hand for 5 seconds, and then run away giggling like the little girl i am.

will post photos and vids later today. :)

ZIP IT UP

2011-03-09T09:49:00.000-08:00

i have literally played this song 3 times a day, everyday, for the last month.... and it just keeps getting better....
giggs - sexiest voice in grime. wiley - this is one of my favourite verses of his. trigga - never hear much of him before but i go from head nod to full on body bop when he comes in.

deeeeeeeeelicious!

DARKNESS

2011-03-08T14:38:00.000-08:00

i very rarely use the twitter account fraksha convinced me to create last year (@BizRegal), but very occasionally someone reaches out to me and i make a rad new contact or am introduced to something i love.

this track is one of those things. i am really digging it.

concept for the video is nice - though i honestly don't really like how it was executed..... it's GOOD... but i think it could have been GREAT...

word to klashnekoff, i was bumping 'the sagas of' in my NY apartment only yesterday.

LEGIT CONVO

2011-03-08T14:05:00.000-08:00

this conversation is REAL and occurred while swimming in the beautiful green ocean in costa rica mid january:

T "Oh that? A monkey burnt me in the eye with a cigarette when i was in bali".

LEGIT.
and incredible.

FRAKSHA IS A TURKEY

2011-02-09T09:31:00.000-08:00

Totally hating on my big brother Fraksha right now. He just told me he's touring new zealand with dizzee rascal and dead prez in a couple of weeks.....
hate hate hate!!!

i've already told him if he EVER tours or does anything at all with Tempa T, i am flying back to australia to shadow him.

right so i'm a couple of weeks late on the whole 'gucci got an ice cream tattoo on his fucking FACE' tip, but here we go.

he did it. i love it. how ridiculous!

here's what Game had to say to vibe mag about it:
"Bottom-line, if you know Gucci, you know he's real. He’s been on trial for his life and all of that. He bodied people. So he could tattoo a f*ckin' tampon on his face for all I care. You can't say he's buster or whatever."

fair enough.

I MISS AUSTRALIA

2011-02-08T08:27:00.001-08:00

above track by the bullitts ft jay electronica and lucy liu is ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS.

U.S. WHUT????

2011-01-11T04:57:00.000-08:00

Without a doubt the UK has it going on when it comes to tv programs, ESPECIALLY comedy. when the states did a remake of the office (quite a few years ago now) i found it offensive and refused to watch. over time, the us version grew on me a tiny little bit - mainly because i love steve carrell - but never came close to David Brent and the Slough branch....... because, let's face it, americans don't really know whatsup.

UK:

US:

Not long after i moved to the states (10 days ago now) i saw that the US had done a remake of Skins (it starts this weeks actually). it will be kind of interesting to see what they've done with it, however, i'm not TOO phased because i think skins is shit anyway.

UK:

US:

literally yesterday i saw the most shocking of all, a US version of SHAMELESS - one of the greatest shows of all time - coming to air later this month. i am shocked and appauled and do not want to know what they have done with it.
the bastards.

UK:

US:

here is a little taste of what the REAL 'Shameless' has to offer:

SUPERFINE

YUMMY MUSIC, YUMMY BOYS

2011-01-09T22:31:00.000-08:00

We all know how much i love my grime, and i gotta say i love j cole quite a bit too.... so it's no wonder the following little vid (j cole spittin a little over tinchy's game over beat) makes me VERY happy. all over.

J Cole is in the charts at the moment on the track "all i want is you". I kinda dig the tune, but what i dig much MUCH more is it's singer Miguel.

fuck fuck jesus shit marry me please...

YUMCHA

2011-01-09T21:43:00.000-08:00

Homegirl Yumcha is one talented lady. I've been egging her on to get her jewellery ting going for a little bit of time now, and just before i left Australia we did a shoot for her first range. Here is a little sneak peek at some of the shots:

Out to the incredible and beautiful Sandra who modeled the pieces with me.

Love Ms Yumcha dearly and miss her like crazy. Watchout planet earth, the girl is gonna be a billionaire.

2011 is going to be essex gyal Jessie J's year. i adore this acoustic version of 'do it like a dude':

SO CONFUSING

2010-12-23T20:54:00.001-08:00

So Fraksha sent me a lovely lil B christmas pic

At which point i realised i hadn't listened to ANY lil B for aaaaaaaages. and this is what i found:

now, i have to admit i watched it a few times, but each time didn't clear anything up for me regarding what the fuck it is about.

BigUp Andy Milonakis:
"hoes on my peepee"

so dope.

HOW'D YA FEEL?

2010-12-20T03:36:00.000-08:00

TEMPZ ON TWITTER

2010-12-18T17:34:00.000-08:00

don't usually get on my beyonce independant woman tip, and not a fan of many female mcs in any genre, but i dig this. (it's over tinchy stryder's 'game over' beat).

all about Roxxxan, Lioness, and Mz Bratt.... but lady leshurr goes in hardest.

Big up the femmes.

NEW FACES

2010-12-13T17:17:00.000-08:00

Last was a pretty intense and random weekend for me...
For starters, i am homeless...... and have been for two months...... i stay with my family in the country (and that's where all my stuff is) a couple of nights a week, but as i work and play in melbourne, i am on couches the rest of the time... kind of fun, kind of shit. But when NYC is the light at the end of the tunnel i don't really give a fuck!

Went to the Clipse show at melbourne venue the Prince last thursday night, alongside sexpot friend Yumcha and producer genius MPhazes, and courtesy of all round (coolest dude i have ever met in my life) New York mane Ferris Bueller. The show was pretty hot, the crowd loved them, and Yumcha and i loved Pusha's crazy eyes.

Met a few new peeps at the show, and ended up spending the rest of the weekend with Kano and Bashy (UK) who were in town supporting Gorillaz. Now, i am a young lass who is quite into my uk music..... HOWEVER, i have to be honest and say that in the two - maybe 3 - years i have been listening to grime i have barely listened to either of these guys. I definitely heard a little bit of Kano's 2008 release '140 Grime Street' while i was living in London, and i had a few Bashy tracks on an old (and now deceased) mp3 player, but really, i didn't know what these guys were about.

After hanging out with them, i thought i should do a little more research into their music, and was pleasantly surprised on both counts. Here are my favourite tracks i've come across so far:

above track is from 2004, but let's be honest, it's ridiculous.

above is a 2009 release

Here are a few random things i learnt about these two while i was hanging out with them: Bashy is fucking hilarious, down to earth, doesn't drink alcohol, and can fly kick a man in the face. Kano is quietly enigmatic UNTIL he is drunk, when he is very loud and animated, doesn't eat cheese or like dogs (my two favourite things in the world - ouch!), and is happy to accommodate gypsy women.
Both are gentlemen, like pies, and wearing sockettes (so you can't see the any part of the sock out the top of the trainer). Good to know.

i ALSO hung out with Booty Brown of LEGENDARY california based group the Pharcyde a lil bit over the weekend. Now THAT was an honour and a half. Looking forward to linking with the man when i am in LA. Way too many Pharcyde tracks to put here.... debated for aaaages which to choose:

make sure you check out 'passin me by' 'drop' and 'she said' while you're at it.

Always good to meet new people, especially when they've got good souls and are not dickheads. They only have Sydney, Brisbane and NZ to go before the tour is over - get out and see them if you're anywhere nearby.

SWEET JESUS

2010-12-12T04:22:00.000-08:00

Well, shit.
It's actually been MONTHS since i wrote anything.
I got a baby brother, had exams for uni and decided i was moving to New York at the end of the year... so it's been pretty hectic.

Will get back on it tomorrow.

RAPPERTAG

2010-10-04T05:16:00.000-07:00

Aus Hiphop scallywag 360 came up with the awesome rappertag concept - using youtube as the medium. He passed it on to Urthboy, who passed it on to Brad Strut (Melbourne hiphop king or not, i met Brad Strut when i was 16 and a very big fan of Lyrical Commission and he was a total cunt to me), who passed it on to my turd of a flatmate Fraksha. Here's what he came up with:

love ya work Fraks.

Be interesting to see what Bias comes up with, and shouts to 360 for the idea - I'm curious to see how far this thing goes.

THE MOST AWESOME

2010-09-21T18:51:00.000-07:00

Pretty much.

TELL YOUR MAMA

2010-09-17T20:34:00.000-07:00

UK Grime artist JME's remix of RED's "I should tell ya mama on you" is LARGE. RED is a homeless beatboxing genius from LA, who The Fader described as sounding"like Ginuwine filtered through Roger Troutman and performed by a 90-year-old barbershop singer." This dude's story has only just begun. Youtube him.

On repeat.

The delectable Huw Joseph will be playing at Red Bennies (Chapel st) on Sat 25th Sept and Sun 26th Sept as part of the Melbourne Fringe Festival. Go see him. OR you could spend the $13 on 3/5 of a movie ticket to go and watch Step Up 3. But...you know.... that'd be shit. The Huw Joseph Experience won't be.....So, it's up to you really.

WHAT A TINY TREAT

2010-09-02T07:47:00.000-07:00

Well this looks like a pretty average photo of one side of my psychology tute room at melbourne university. standard chairs. standard table. pretty awesome view of my beautiful city.... wait a sec, is there something written on that bit of wall just under the window?... Surely no one would bother to graffiti inside a tute room at uni...

Yeah, yeah i think there IS something there...

JESUS

2010-09-01T23:09:00.000-07:00

Jesus is technically Jewish, right? Jesus is son of god, right? Jesus is black, right? Jesus rocked around the middle east when he was alive, but is now EVERYWHERE, right?
WRONG!!!!!!!
Jesus is pink and is in my sister's pocket at Trentham Primary School.
Ain't nothin you can do about it.

TELL US WHAT YOU REAAALLY THINK

2010-08-31T06:48:00.001-07:00

Jesus, Mary and Joseph on a bicycle! (one of those family ones with 3 seats – JC can sit on the back and get away with not doing any pedaling) !!!

These shoes are out of control.

Ok, every female sneaker freak out there is going to hate me for saying this, but I am not actually a massive fans of girls in trainers. I would wear and own far far more than I do if I was a fan. Some girls can rock them and look both cool and sexy at the same time. I don’t fancy myself one of those girls.

HOWEVER, these Ninja Turtle Airmax 90s are next level. As a late 80s baby the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were my thing – I could be heard from age 4 to 12 shouting ‘Cowabunga’ all over the shop. And 90s are my favourite sexy trainer for boys OR girls to wear.

Oh man, I want these so freakin bad.

AM I NOW

CHINGY FT. TYRESE - PULLIN' ME BACK

"They tell me don't trust a woman in this industry,
But she not any woman, more like a sacred friend to me."

Ahhhhhh Chingy. Beautiful beautiful Chingy.
What a lucky woman she is to be your 'sacred friend'.
***shaking my head

My super spunky and uber cool friend Dom Tronic and I actually went to the Chingy ‘concert’ when he was in Melbourne a couple of months ago.
*note: we did not PAY for the tickets
The venue was on the emptier side of half full and there were a bunch of total specimens in the room.
We waited through two support acts for the Chingster: one young Islander dude with an acoustic guitar, who played a beautiful few original tracks – but not very chingalicious. The second support act – oh where to begin?! A seven piece local hiphop group who rapped in american accents, mimed some of the singing bits, had an overweight Asian dude who seemed to think he actually WAS Lil Jon interjecting random lines here and there, and a girl crumping on the corner of the stage for what appeared to be no reason at all.
After being told nearly ten times that Chingy would be coming on soon – a good 2 and a half hours after we arrived, we were finally told excitedly by the MC that Chingy was “IN THE BUILDING!” but would be at least another 15 minutes because he was eating kfc out the back with his entourage. Way to squash some stereotypes.
We left before the Chingster even came out on stage in favour of getting the last tram home and not wasting $12 each on a taxi.

Can someone please tell me what the HELL is up with this cat's ears?

NICE

Flatmate only informed me of this official remix of Diddy's tune 'Hello, Good Morning' with Skepta this very morning. And now i can't stop listening to it. If Diddy's on Grime, there's something big going on.

I may be asking Skepta to marry me at some point in the near future. I'm sure he'll say no, but i gotta ask...

mmmmmmmmmmmmm......

I saw this scribble in a toilet cubicle at university. unbelievable. i laughed so hard while sitting on the porcelain - and had to sheepishly wash my hands and rush out of the bathrooms due to the curious stares i got as i walked out of the cubicle. i mean, seriously? what was going through this person's head?
also notice someone took the time to draw a dinosaur. rad.

BY MY SIDE

2010-08-17T06:16:00.000-07:00

9 Milli comes hard with this track - melodic chorus been stuck in my head all night. Bloodline is actually on something a wee bit special of late. yum.

WHO KNOWS ABOUT YAN YAN?

Super cool and yum biscuit/chocolate dip snack. Aside from the delicious fun-ness of yan yan, the messages written on the biscuit are out of control.
My personal faves from this batch? Squirrel - Your best friend, and Panda - Go for more!

BED

2010-08-16T05:54:00.000-07:00

I spend all the time i possibly can in my bed. Here are five things i have found IN my bed in the last month:
1. a spoon
2. a half roll of toilet paper
3. a real estate agent's - one whom i have never met - business card
4. the warranty to a watch i purchased about 5 weeks ago
5. an allen key

SO THIS IS WHAT GUYS GET UP TO...

I hope i don't get pregnant watching this, or maybe i hope i do..... i dunno...

Alex Steiner is one of a small handful of highschool friends i remain in contact with. I'm sure you can understand why.
Stingray, I've never told you this, but for about 8 years now you have been what i wanted to - and still want to - be when i grow up.
I loves you.

DID HE JUST SAY THAT?

2010-07-22T20:01:00.000-07:00

"I'm serious as cancer
When i say
Rhythm is a dancer"

In 1992 band 'Snap' brought out the disco gem that is 'Rhythm is a dancer'.
Did he just say that?
Yeah. He did.

WHAT CAN YOU SAY?

GIL SCOTT - HERON FT.MOS DEF - NEW YORK IS KILLING ME.NEW 2010

2010-07-14T13:12:00.000-07:00

I saw Gil Scott-Heron live in Central Park about 2 weeks ago, and it was life changing. What a freaking legend. I can't even really describe what it meant to me, and how i felt, nor can i describe the vibe of the crowd... If you have time, check my favourite tune of his 'Winter in America' which was released in 1974. *sighs* love.

COOPERS FISH AND SEAFOOD

2010-07-06T16:36:00.000-07:00

Ever since i was a little girl, i have been a freak magnet. Nutbars and Druggies have always been drawn to me. Whether it's the petite old lady in a pink nightdress and one pink slipper my dad found on the roof screaming "Belle! Belle!" when i was about 8, or in my day to day travels these days with fruitcakes just assuming friendship (which i don't mind, to be honest).
I was at a train station in BedStuy, Brooklyn at about half 11 pm one night last week when i made one of my new friends. A very short, very old (i'm tippin 65) black guy approached me. He had cornrows, no teeth, was on crutches, and one of his trouser legs was shorts and the other leg was pants. he mumbled some friendly and enthusiastic ramblings at me for a while about us meeting before (we hadn't) and and something about an autograph, before digging in his backpack and pulling out a book. he gave me the slip of paper i have photographed below before clicking his tongue at me, a toothless grin, and hobbling away. I guess that means i wont have to look for a job when i (hopefully) move to New York sometime next year. Brilliant.

OH I DO HEART CRAZIES

2010-07-06T16:24:00.000-07:00

I was actually watching tv when this was on, and i remember half laughing out loud, half frowning in confusion. Once you get over the gloriousness of whatever the hell you just saw, it's not difficult to be pretty amazed that this story made it onto our current affairs program. Oh Australia. This is almost as good as the old man on the police show who described the assailant as being "skinny in the face, very tanned, and with long hair like Jesus".

AUSTRALIA, STAND UP

2010-07-01T09:50:00.000-07:00

Sometimes i really hate Australia. We are a racist, sexist, homophobic nation.... incredibly ignorant, and 20 years behind the rest of the world. Our country is a white boys club: footy, beer and pies....
HOWEVER, sometimes i love Australia for all those very same qualities (ok maybe not racist and homophobic)... and this clip of a really endearingly enthusiastic and stupid footy rev up talk is a perfect example of one of those times. Proud to be Aussie.

BUM BANDITS

2010-07-01T09:30:00.000-07:00

I saw this graffiti on one of those possum stopper bands around a tree when i was on my way to an exam a couple of weeks ago:

I don't know who you are, Bum Bandits, and i don't think i want to find out...

10 THINGS

2010-06-17T19:20:00.000-07:00

10 things dudes should not do in a Stripclub - Part 1

So i've been a bartender in a Melbourne strip club for quite a long time now (sorry you had to find out like this, mum and dad, but i promise it's the safest place i've ever worked, security/management/other barstaff are my family, and it hasn't crossed my mind once to start dancing) and needless to say, i've seen a fair bit. Before i worked there, i wouldn't be lying if i said i looked down on strippers, but now i look down on the dudes that GO to the strippers. You idiots do some fair stupid stuff... Here is the first of a few lists of things you shouldn't do, but things that have definitely been done......

10. Do not, under any circumstance, order a vodka raspberry. You are not a sixteen year old girl.
9. Please don't high five each other for no apparent reason other than you are in a stripclub. Come on boys, that's not very G.
8. Don't try to smell the dancers. You know what i mean. It just isn't cool.
7. Don't try to make friends with security so you get in free next time/claim you know the owner/ask for your usual at the bar when you aren't a regular. You are pathetic and transparent. You are a certified peanut not a certified G.
6. Please don't urinate in the fire exit. Someone has to clean that up you know.
5. Don't be so drunk you take a dump in your pants when you're having a private dance. It stinks out the whole area for hours.
4. Don't bring a gun into the club, pull it out on a dancer, hide it in the piano when you're being searched, then wave it around as you leave the building... We don't even know if it was real but seriously, there's no need for that.
3. Don't throw up on yourself and then pass out lying down in the urinal. There's ALSO no need for that.
2. Don't try to pick up the bargirls. Just don't even bother. We are surrounded by idiots like you every time we work, and do you HONESTLY think if we were going to choose a man to date, it would be one who came into the STRIPCLUB we work in? I don't think so.
1. Don't be a totally creepy 40 year old man and tell the bartender that you regularly have sex with your 15 year old cousin, get banned for it, then get banned from the sister club for sticking your hand down your buttcrack in front of a dancer and licking your fingers. There was poo involved. I'm not even kidding people, this man exists.

TOTALLY AMAZE

WE PUNCHED IT IN THE DICK

2010-05-26T03:24:00.000-07:00

"We punched it in the dick"

This is, apparently, a saying to express that you did something to the best of your ability.
I will HONESTLY be forever in debt to Murky Depths of australian grime crew Smash Brothers for bringing this saying into my life. So amazing.

Oh, and the rude word doesn't count because it's a quote.

PEEP SHOW

2010-05-26T02:49:00.000-07:00

Quote of the day/week/lifetime is:
"This is fucking wicked. I'm almost definitely a musical genius. Maybe a tattoo... on my chest... but... of my face. Yeahh! Double me! Feel it!"
(Jez, Series 1, Episode 1)

Peep Show. Watch it.

PRETTY SURE 'LIPZ' IS ACTUALLY SPELT WITH AN 'S'

2010-05-26T01:23:00.000-07:00

COLD FLAMEZ - LICK MY LIPZ

Ok, I have to confess i am secretly a little bit of a lover of the whole 'jerk' movement (except that most of the dudes in this genre of music are still teens...). But yeah, the whole skinny jeans and lots of tatts thing is working for me...... what is not working for me however, are the lyrics to the chorus of a particular song by group Cold Flamez. I'll see if you can guess what the song is called...

"When she walk by
And she swings her hips
Yeeah, i licks my lips
Yeeah i licks my lips
I licks my lips
Yeeah i licks my lips
I licks my lips
I licks my"

Well, I guess the poor lil fellas ran out of words.

YOUR FRIENDSHIP IS DEFINITELY NOT WORTH IT

2010-05-25T20:34:00.000-07:00

I just received this facebook quote courtesy of Fraksha (It obviously wasn't HE who actually wrote it). And when i read it i did a little sicky burp in my mouth.

COURT ORDER!! You are accused of : Crawling into my HEART and hijacking my smiles with your FRIENDSHIP...........!!!!!!HOW DO YOU PLEAD?GUILTY!! You are sentenced to be my friend forever! NO BAIL!! Send thisto all of your friends including me! If you get 10 back, your friendshipis worth it

TEMPZ!

So i have been jokingly made the Australian Bloodline Correspondent by the big man himself, so i thought i'd best give him some props. This is one of my favourite tracks off Street Crime UK and i love this video. it's actually one of the first Big H experiences i ever had (thankyou Oli) sometime last year, and i have been a big fan ever since. future husband files? yes much.

So this is a pretty drunk Scott Hinds after a massive Wobble last year. If i remember rocleclec some eediot spilt vodka raspberry on me that night (what IS it with dudes and vodka raspberry???) so i demanded he went to the bar and purchase both Kitty and I a drink each as payback, and he was so waste he actually did it.... Anywho, this video is hilarious, couldn't have scripted the phone call from Fraksha any better. Check out LOFTBTV's youtube channel, some funny clips and rad music there for you to enjoy.
