The Good Ole' Boob Tube aka TV Murked the Radio Star.

Fuck a Plasma!...this is the future...err past. Shit, look that muhfucka even has a built in clock!


So I usually watch a few shows with my girl when we get home from work most nights but there are a few shows that we watch almost religously, sometimes you have to have those 1 or 2 shows that you try to watch continuously every week until the season ends, cause most shows on TV are so craptastic that it's good to watch a few of them that make it seem like some of those hollywood humps are doing something right...so I watched two of my favorite shows last nite so I figured they should get a mention on the blog. The first of which is the show Supernatural...




Supernatural
Now now, before you guys chastise me for watching a show that comes on the damn CW network and has fans that are mostly teenage girls that think the two main characters "are like freakin sooooo hott!", I gotta tell ya one simple truth: it's a damn good show. The characters, the dialouge, the mix of sci-fi, action, and comedy is def a good mix that makes me think of this show as more than just some dramatized teenybooper show like the rest of the crappy shows on The CW. So pin short it's about these two brothers, Sam and Dean Winchester, that are demon hunters. They come in lines with other cracked out hunters, the i'gnant ass police that are chasing them, ghosts, monsters, zombies, and evil demonic possessed people. Between all this horrific action packed stuff are some hilarious brotherly moments and shit talking.
Here's a couple funny moments from the show that actually make it enjoyable to watch-










Scrubs
Ahhh yes def a comedy classic, I wanna actually thank my cousin for nagging me about scrubs before and also recently my blog brother from another motherboard Rey from Itaintthatserious, for hyping up the show on his own blogsite. The show's basis is about a couple of doctors personal and professional lives that work at a teaching hospital in Los Angeles. The show is just flat out funny because it's filled with alot of sarcasm and slapstick comedy. And the character of Dr. Cox played by John C. McGinley is a damn riot, and J.D. and Turk’s quirky inside jokes and slight poking fun at “life partners” style friendship is hilarious to see, especially when they do renditions of songs or TV show themes. Also Turk is classic when he jumps into his Dancing sessions in the mid-conversation. What’s sad though I hear this is their last season and I just started to get into the show a couple months ago…I tell ya sometimes there so much crap on TV that it makes miss the good stuff. Check out a lil sample of the dude Turk dancin like a fool.



And of course the famous clip of Turk dancing and singing to Bel Biv Devoe's "Poison". Props to my homies at NahRight for the clip...



I have a few more shows I usually stay on top of watching that include Dirty Jobs (Mike Rowe for President!), Entourage, and Kitchen Nightmares. Isnt it funny when you get older you watch all the weird "nedry" stuff on the food, travel, and discovery channels that you wouldnt watch at all when you were younger or if there was a video in science class or something, just a funny thought you know.

**Also I wanted to take a second to give a big shout out and thanks to my homies Meka Soul and Shake from HipHopDX, for puttin me on their blogroll, giving me and my blog some shine on their own blog side project and all around dope website, 2DopeBoyz.com. Thanks guys and I'll try to keep up with posting steady weekly and bringing some interesting content on my site. I have to tell ya, Shake held it down on the design of the website, dude is a genius at that stuff. So check out their website cause they hold it down on the awesome song exclusives and sometimes obscure but always ill ass "Meka Soul Mix Shows". Click the link above or down below on my favorite links section and check their blog out, tell them that Tank/MTF sent ya.

Everybody have a a great, chill, and safe weekend...holla lata next week. (or maybe you'll get a suprise blog or two on the weekend...who knows)Also big thansk to all yuo guys that are commenting, I really appreciate ya smartass and interesting feedback. ha.

Chuckin Dueces,

Well I’m back, I finally did it…finally done with my second blog and were gonna start it off with something real ill.
*Lil thought of mine”…Now I just want to say instead of us guys getting in to fist fights, getting in to “beefs”, or shooting up your enemy’s mothers house when we get into a diference of opinion why cant we just work it out in a simple grown up gentleman manor. Lets aim for a simple grown up conversation where the two sides equally get time to explain there views and opinions. And then if it gets a lil heated or to the point where there is a minor argument and some hollering/cursing/telling each other to “fuck your mother!” then it can be resolved with a friendly hug out. Watch the example given by Ari:
If for some reason that video doenst work then here’s the URL:

Speaking of one of the/my most favorite shows of all time, Entourage (SHAMLESS PLUG ALERT!- Sundays at 9 pm on HBO.- SHAMLESS PLUG ALERT!), if you have seen the show you know why it is such a classic show. One of those main reason is Emmy award winning Actor Jeremy Piven who plays Ari Gold, a quick tempered sarcastic remarks coming out his brown hole workaholic of a agent for the shows main character. Now he’s comic gold (no pun) in the fact of his ridiculous and foul mouthed raves and how he goes off on his homosexual Asian assistant Lloyd. Trust me the dude is classic, also one of my favorite things about the show is how every time Ari is in a situation or is entering/exiting his office they always play an bangin Hip Hop track during that scene, such as: “Microphone Fiend” by Rakim, “Don’t Say Nutin” by the Roots, “Since They Wanna Know” by Obie Trice, “Roc the Mic” by Beanie Sigel & Freeway, “BOB” by OutKast, “Tell me When To Go” by E-40, etc. Def a good addition to the show, I guess Mark Wahlberg has some input on the music direction since he is the show’s executive producer. Enuff yapping about Entourage I’m sure I’ll be blogging about the show in later posts.

Anyways I’m def going to be jumping around to many different topics on the next fw posts cause I have a few different thoughts, ideas, brainstorms, and psychotic thoughts that I have been brewing in my head for the past few days, so watch out every few days I might have another post up.

One of those ideas is doing a few Top 10 lists, very random and about any subject. So fuckin “A” let’s go-

Top 10 Most underrated & Underappreciated MC’s (Rappers for you MTV TRL viewers)
1. Talib Kweli – def a simple pick and a no brainer, when you been doing it so hard year after year, song after song you got to be, cd sales or not, one of the Top MC’s in the game. Also it’s kind of ill when Young Hov says he wants to rap like you in one of his songs.
2. Black Thought – now Mr. Trotter has been putting it down since like ’92, with all his heart, soul, sweat, and tears and he has always reflected that in his rhymes. He is one of the innovators and originators (with ?uesto) of the Hip Hop & Soul Band. So all you emo rock guys and MTV faithfuls, Gym Class Heroes would not even be here with out Mr. Trotter & Company.
3. Brother Ali – just got 2 things to say, get past the fact that he is a albino white guy ( whut?! wholly…! ooohhh ahhhh okay now settle down children), and check out his past 3 cd’s including his new one, The Undisputed Truth, and tell me he isn’t one of the Top MC’s.
4. Obie Trice – Real name, no gimmicks bitch. Obie always seems to rip a new asshole out of every song he’s on, and represents Detroit well on his own, without the White Boy behind him.
5. Murs – Murs For President 2007, those two albums with 9th Wonder are all you need to see how much talent and story telling ability this guy has. Plus he’s better than your Favorite Rapper’s Rapper.
6. GZA – I always thought that behind the enormous talent, wordplay, and in your face-ness of Method Man as a successful solo artist away from Wu-Tang, that The Genius is one of the tightest, smartest, and purest lyricists out of the group. I mean he didn’t have much flare away from Wu like Meth, ODB, Rae, and Ghost, but he still had some of the deepest and most vivid rhymes I have ever heard and the way he puts his words and syllables together is just incredible. Take a listen to “Labels”, “Shadowboxin”, “Cold World”, “Animal Planet”, and “Fame”. Just a few from one of my favorite MC’s of all time.
7. …speaking of Wu Tang, Ghostface Killah – Ghostface has to be one of the most, hard working, charismatic, wild, imaginative and creative mc’sto ever touch a mic. Now I have always liked Ironman, but he just never caught my ear the way GZA or some of my other favorites did. I knew he was good, one of the top mc’s but just never noticed how great he actually was until Fishscales came out. Everybody thought he was going soft, and that he would be doing the same ole same ole like he did on his past 2 albums (which were decent in of themselves), but he decide to up the ante and work with some difftrent producers and change it up a bit. He brought in one of my favorite underground mc/producers MF DOOM, for a few songs. There were so many amazing songs on there, esp “The Champ” , Shakey Dog” , etc. But whut did it for me is “Underwater”, whut other rapper do you know has rapped about being/or dreaming about being underwater and seeing Spongebob banging the Isley Brothers in a Bentley Coupe and not make it sound corny and stupid.
8. Jin – I know whut your thinking, the lil asian dude from 106 & park and Ruff Ryders. Take notice, Jin has been through a lot since those times and has upgraded his MC grade to A to an A+. Most it has to do with The MC’s Properganda cd he released in 2005 and his every growing and expanding internet fanbase via Myspace. Dude is killin every verse he lays down and is representing what a MC can do when given a second chance and is not controlled by money hungry creative controlling executives. He has been funny, out spoken, witty, and down to earth as a MC can be. I think this rebuilding/reforming of Jin in the underground and the internet has made him a better MC than he ever would have been on Ruff Ryders, based solely as “The” Chinese rapper and not just a damn good MC. Plus dude is a 80’S baby/90’s kid like me and can show his dorky, nerdy, everyday person side on his myspace page and his blogs/bulletins he posts, and he has very loyal fans and is interested in whut they have to say. Also he is a very intelligent guy that takes the time out to talk about what is really on his mind and speak on topics in the media, just recently he released, “Rain Rain Go Away”, a tribute to the people at VT, and he did that cause he is a true poet and did not do it for recognition but because he felt genuinely sorry about the tragedy and poured out his feelings and condolences the only way he feels right doing it, in rhyme.
9. Joe Budden – whut can I say about Joey, he is one of the most deep lyricists in the game. People bag on him cause of his past “beefs” with Game & G-unit and the fact that he use to be a Drug Addict. I think that confessing and pouring out how it feels to be a person under those circumstances and standing tall and still being proud of who you are and not giving a flying fuck whut anybody has to say about it is a noble thing in itself. Add on to the fact that he can rhyme his ass off and seriously I would put money down that he could battle and beat every single person in G-Unit and The Game. Every time he speaks in a song he is telling about his own experiences, and no one else’s so it would make sense say if you were a firefighter then you would talk about saving people and fighting fire. If you were a race car driver you would talk about racing and the race cars you have driven. Any experiences you have gone through, as a rapper you are going to talk about them no matter what they are, or at least you should, and that’s what Joey does cause I’m sure a few rappers have been addicts or alcoholics or whutever and don’t say shit about it and then play up like there something totally different. Joey says he was a drug addict, says he’s a chain smoker and does so to help him get through bullshit and says that he has had relapses in the past and how his family and friends would react to it. Now if that aint real talk I dont know whut is.
10. Rhymefest – Dude is ridiculous and like soooooo clever with his rhymes, just with his first cd you get the feeling of greatness and a lasting impact with ‘Fest. And hearing him rip it like “Will” on DJ Jazzy Jeff’s song, “Jeff & Fess” makes you yearn for more cd’s from this brilliant man. He is not Kanye’s Protégé/Buddy/sidekick as everybody and their momma that has seen his video for “Brand New” on MTV may project him to be, to me seriously he can out rhyme ‘Ye any day, no offense to Mr. West. I men he beat Eminem at freestyle Competition, and has a well established and solid record deal without dumbing down his lyrics or getting a r&b singer on every song. He is the working man’s rapper, blue collar rapper to all the simple and down to earth folks that just like good Hip Hop, No Preservatives. And Fest delivers like the UPS man.


Okay I’m done yapping you guys prob. got tired of reading after like Number 3, but try to read all of it and yes you can leave me comments about anything I have said in this post and remember kiddies this is only my opinion, this is not a collected survey of critics and writers and fans, its just one guy stating his opinions on this idea okey dokey. Shoot just wait till I get to my Top Lists for favorite Hip Hop Albums, MC’S, Bands, Movies, Superheroes, Cartoons, and 90’s Nickelodeon Shows, ohhh then the disputes and verbal wars begin!

Keep your head up and stay positive, Tankus Maximus aka Your Favorite Big Hairy White Hip Hop Head since ’84.
