Words By Patrick M.
…Where your mouth is.
I’m into the practice of New Year’s resolutions.
I recognize that, as much as I love myself, I’m a flawed human being who’s prone to bad habits and obnoxious behaviors.
And vices. Oh the vices.
My life is a constant battle, as I struggle to understand who I am while trying to visualize who I want to be. I believe the journey in between is what life’s all about. The New Year is a time to reflect, re-evaluate and move in new directions. It’s also a time to reconsider your relationships with the people and things you love, and how you can help them.
And hip-hop needs my help. And yours.
I’ve taken to following the sales numbers in recent months, and the picture is bleak. The top-tier names – Jay-Z, T.I., Curtis, Kanye – can move enough units to satisfy their record labels and…

True and Who….
- I think I’ll attend more concerts this upcoming year (God willing)
-WHO is the female in the photo?!? (Damn!!!)
lookin good
I think it’s Trina’s face
Did anyone peep the 1st ep of the Wire season 5 from last post?
I started to watch and felt kinda guilty. I actually want to see it when it airs….but Im anxious yo.
That is Trina.
Welcome to the light Patrick. Get ready for the funny looks you’ll get when you go up to buy a cd. Also get ready to do some searching; some of the cd’s that deserve to be bought the most are the hardest to find (i.e. Desire.)
Trina??? damn a photoshop and make-up…. I feel like I got bamboozled on New Year’s Eve… Hope this ain’t a sign of things to come in the new year. lol
Turk, I watched it….and there’s a 98% chance I’ll watch it again when it airs.
What did you think of it? I felt like it was real slow, but on purpose, to help set up what’s all going to happen.
From watching the special on the show, we know that the lady reporter & the guy who sits beside her are going to be key characters.
I’m wondering if I’m going to like the black dude who worked @ the paper as well. I kinda liked how he told the lady who worked for the city, “fuck you” in an off kind of way lol.
very well said patrick.
Resolution for Greumsy Greums:
I promise to stop flooding Smoking Section and other hip hop blogs with incessant, nonsensical garbage that doesn’t translate well into English. I promise to only post 2 times a day.
SAY IT FROGMAN
@ Turk…
I watch S5E1 on HBO on Demand. They really picked a good platform to start this season off with. New characters are always welcome on this show to me. I’m still gonna watch it on the first night though. It’s worth a second viewing.
Word, Eardrum cost £16 in my local hmv, that’s $32, and they wonder why record sales are screwed.
Greums, man, very good resolution.
I don’t get the Greums hate.
And that was a great piece, Patrick, perfect note to end the year (and the day’s sobriety) with.
OK ….well dont bother me now Im watching it! lol
i need them raekwon the vacitian mixtapes
sumbody help me
G$, I’m pretty sure you’ll like that brother. He’s everything a big-city desk editor needs to be – and then some.
Carcetti’s going to be interesting to watch this season.
you mean Greums does this shit on other blogs? Cot Damn
