BLACK SHEEP 101:THE CHOICE IS YOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!{THIS OR THAT}
Now who are Black Sheep???What’s a BlackSheep???Even if they wanted to e crowd could not be weak!!!lol!!! But I’m Glad that you asked!!!lol!!!BackSheep are perhaps one of the“Purest ” hip hop duo’s from Queens, New York EVER!!! Composed of Andres "Dres" Titus and William "Mista Lawnge" McLean.These brothers came out in 1991 with their first hit song “Flavor of the Month“. and later would released their first album, A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing,Lookie here yoa Black Sheep Impact~fully came out in full force with the “Native Tongue” movement with Da La Soul,A Tribe Called Quest & Jungle Brothers.Now The first “word‘s” that come’s 2 mind when I hear the words “BLACK & SHEEP” are “LEGENDARY & “RESPECT“!!! Because #1 you Gotta be a “BLACK SHEEP” or a “REBEL“or an“ OUTCAST” 2 BE REAL HIP-HOP!!!Yoa!!LOL!!!^__^Especially in this &day n age ..PEROID!!!There is no other way around it!!!& #2 THERE IS NO LONGER A “CHOICE” only THE OVER SATURATION OF NEGATIVITY in the Industry today!!! Because it’s like this yall…in (So~Called) Hip Hop Today??? Its either you’re a watered down swaggered out DANCING COON auto~tued R& B Mash~up!!!{dance just don't be a spectacle} or a Low Down, CUT THROAT, THUGED OUT, PIMPED OUT, PLAYED OUT PLAYER, Drug dealing, Gangster, Gangster UNCLE TOM!!!Yeah I said it!!!lol!!!Now with that said… without a shadow of a doubt, BLACK SHEEP are the author’s of perhaps THE “GREATEST “PURE” REAL HIP HOP SONG OF ALL TIME!!!”& what’s that u may ask??? I’m talking about their song “THE CHOICE IS YOURS.(THIS OR THAT)“Ya See??? Man..Let ya boy Cali peep you up on “THE REAL”See Now a days these kids don’t have an Inkling of the wide Variety of Hip-Hop “WE” 2 had choose from….But back in the day’s ????It was all about CHOICE!!! In~fact Most of Us “Conscience brothers” who have knowledge of self and “DROPPED SCIENCE” Strait up “LAUGHED “at the Idea that people would be so far gone 2 choose “THAT” So Definitely and Drastically??? naw man.It’s like til this day If you walk into any HIP-HOP club & hear….Engine Engine Number 9/ on the New York Transit line/ if my train pull’s off he track pick it up pick it UP PICK IT UP!!!!^__^ the crowd GOES KRAZZZZZYYYY!!!!LMAO!!!Now before I go any further let me say this..In real HIP-HOP “BLACK SHEEP” are “LIVING LEGENDS!!!” & also Dres from Black Sheep is on TWITTER so I know that he’s going 2 Be reading this Blog.So I mean no Disrespect by RE~IMAGINING their Gift & message.Also Im not writing this as a FAN trying 2 get their attention.I’m a sick EMCEE myself naww this is about EDUCATING THE MASS’S ON WHAT IZ REAL HIP-HOP!!! Plus these kids need 2 know that they have a choice..THIS OR THAT THIS OR THAT THIS OR THAT!!!See???Now if I never get a shout out It’s not about “that” the MOVEMENT IZ BIGGER THAN ME PLUS in REAL HIP-HOP it’s about RE~IMAGINING THE GOLDEN ERA….Now… seeing that Ive opened the Door Immo write on the rest of the Native tongues…But BLACKSHEEP was banging the hardest (in my personal opinion)So with that said *Talking like Ali* here iz one of the greatest pure hip hop songs of all time!!!!!!!!THE CHOICE IS YOURS(THIS OR THAT)Why??? I keep it CALLOUS!!!LMAO!!!

SLUM VILLAGE 101:THE UN-TAINTED{R.I.P.}BAATIN
SLUM VILLAGE 101:THE UN-TAINTED{R.I.P.}BAATIN
Yoa what’s up Yall this is CALLOUS with a commemorative Blog of sort’s… with the passing of Slum Village Detroit Rapper/Emcce Baatin Dead at 35.R.I.P.Now Ya Boy Cali give’s his condolences to all the Family & Fans of one of the “True Legends” of REAL DETROIT HIP-HOP with “knowledge of self“. And If you have never heard of Slum Village or them being from my hometown of Detroit, that’s probably because they didn’t rap like it. They lead the 2002 Heart ~n~Soul Hip-Hop movement in The “D”. And unlike MOST Detroit Rappers who Rap Gangster & get killed over Drug Deals gone wrong, Baatin had heath issues. The results are still unclear.But Police say there is no dealing’s of foul play. toxicology results will take a couple of weeks. The Bottom line is that It’s Deaths of Righteous brothers “like this” that Keep me going on and continue to drop knowledge. For you never know where your going to get your last glass of water from or how long you have to teach the mass’s on this Planet. Plus any body who knew Slum Village knows they where about Peace, Unity, Love, Respect & Black Hip-Hop Harmony. Now I didn’t know them “personally” but their reputation and skillz in the REAL HIP-HOP community of Detroit attained them more “respect” than “Slim Shady”110%!!! For various reasons I cannot get into on this blog. Ok..now Slum Village first major hit was 2002 “Tainted” off the CD Trinity (Past, Present and Future) and if you listen to Real Hip-Hop you “will” remember the song, but you may have forgotten who made “it” because “Slum Village” was often confused with A Tribe Called quest or even more so the super mega group “THE ROOTS”. Now don’t get it twisted they did have a very unique style of their own,plus more than 1 Rapper. like The Roots. & when Battle tested They could go HARD!!! Slum Village was formed by three members: rappers Baatin and T3, plus rapper and producer Jay Dee. Jay Dee left in 2002 to pursue a solo career with MCA Records and was replaced by Elzhi, after which Baatin also left due to health complications. Baatin was due 2 make his triumphant return to the group this year, then unfortunately he just passed away. Seriously ya’ll unlike “SOME” Detroit Rappers who lead a Self~ Destructive lifestyle Baatin will truly be missed. And on a personal note….As a Detroit Rapper/Emcce myself I think People tend to get things confused that Detroit is a second NO third Tier REAL-HIP-HOP “community” because of some scrupulous unsavory “characters” or racist “Individual’s” not true. Because it’s group’s like Slum Village & my man Royce Da 5”9 who show true skills without going “Koo Koo Clock” Brain Dead Gangster on you!!! Ok lets get into the “Difference” as to why Slum Village was as Smooth “Romantic even” & Dope as hell in a Battle!!! With 3 of their best knowledge dropping jewels Tainted ,Selfish & Raise it Up! Keep it CALLOUS ya’ll.
Peace-CALLOUS:THE FUTURISTIC MILITANT!!!
First Tainted
Then Selfish
& the GRIMY!!! GO HARD!!! Raise it up!!!
I Told you they could go hard… against all this "commercial" nonsense!!!They had you fooled rite??? Never underestimate the “D” R.I.P. Baatin!!! Now that was CALLOUS!!!Raise it up 4 Baatin!!!
