Hyphenated at it's best: Bella Love the Kids

No words..Just Fr-Fre- Fresh...Oh yes, So freakin' Hyphenated...

From her myspace:
"Hello, I am Belle the bass. I like to do lots of musical things, including playing the (double & electric) bass, beatboxing and trying to cheat the tax man. I spend most of my time gigging, or rehearsing, or practicing, or writing, or listening… usually with the many amazing musicians I have the pleasure of working with. I enjoy playing all sorts of music, particularly anything that induces the “bass face”. But you’d have to see me play to understand that. My musical climaxes usually come from harcore pelvic and grindin’ funk, swingin’ jazz with plenty of gravy, hip-hop, reggae, latin and blues, but I think it’s always good to pitch in the whole lot and cook up a range of new ripe and juicy recipes. I like to play with musicians who have their daily shot of the grooove juice and are prepared to get up to get down.

I’m currently studying jazz double bass at the Guildhall school of music where I’m learning how to rid yourself of any communication skills you may have picked up along the way, and develop an impressive nervous twitch while you’re at it. I’ve also managed to earn myself a great reputation for blowing stylish raspberries. Apparently it’s cool. If you want me to impress you with my amplified dribbling methods, contact: info@allfromthemouth.com"

Pimp Free: R.I.P Pimp C.....

2007 is almost over, and still cats is leaving us. Shit s getting very depressing round here. First stack, now Pimp, wtf is going on? 34 years, couple behind bars, but the block recognize the truth when a real nigga talk, the slab still leanin' down the block, we pop 34 shots for the big homie swaggin' on top, rest in peace. Pimp Free, finally. R.I.P Pimp C...

"All y'all niggas talking about selling dope? If y'all niggas was some d-boys, guess what, man? I don't believe you niggas no more cause I'm seeing you niggas in button up shirts getting cute and pretty trying to look sexy. Nigga, fuck you. nigga, and I ain't gotta say your name. Play with me and I'll expose the niggas that was wearing backpacks with their pant leg rolled up back then in Atlanta when me and Big Meech used to be off in the club kickin' it buying each other champagne." Chad was asked about the statement in a later interview, and stated, "If I was talkin' bout Jeezy, then I woulda said his name. I ain't no pussy nigga. If I got somethin' to say about someone, I'll say the bitches name loud and clear. Chuuuch."
-Pimp C

By far one of the truest cats out, I don't care what anybody says, the pimp was nice. Real Niggas, Do Trill Things...Hyphenated in life and in death, never forget the real...uno
