Rick Ross

I know the grammar is horrid in that title. However, this is a blog and as I’ve said before if I wanted everything on this site to be literary masterpieces I’d write for the NY Times. Anyway… today I got to thinking about two things; everybody thinks my blogs are about them and everybody […]

Earth to Chris Brown & Rick Ross: This is Not A Fairy Tale

February 8, 2013 Dr. J

Incoming message: Please remind the following that there are rules associated with this thing called real life. (CC: Chris Brown, Rick Ross) I’ve long said that hip hop (and I’ll include Chris Brown in that industry for now, although he’s a pop artist moonlighting in the hip hop community) was just a grown-up version of […]

Could Your Friends Be Holding You Back?

January 25, 2013 Dr. J

I heard this theory about how parents are inherently flawed in the fact that they never encourage you to truly chase your dreams. Yes, they may encourage you to chase a dream, but if it’s outside the realm of an attainable and realistic goal they are likely to tell you to try something else. When […]

8 Things We Blow Money Fast On

July 20, 2012 Dr. J

As an adult I have earned the right to spend my discretionary funds on whatever I please. For some reason, we just don’t like anyone telling us what to do with our money. That’s not to say I don’t spend money on some frivolous items. There are some nights, days, and items that I’ve purchased […]

July 6, 2012 Dr. J

Barbershop Fridays at SBM: 15 Thoughts about Drake, Diddy, Rick Ross and the Current State of Hip-Hop

March 23, 2012 Dr. J

Sitting in the chair while getting a cut, I’m trying to get one of the guys to actually explain himself when he says, “Hip hop is dead.” It’s very popular to say that nowadays, but harder to explain. Not many people keep the perspective of realizing that hip hop changes every few years, into a […]

Has Emo Rap Gone a Little Too Far?

There was a time in this country where all you heard on the radio was Gangsta Rap. Thank the Lord that’s over. I can appreciate Gangsta Rap as much as the next guy, but it was just a little depressing after a while. After Biggie and Tupac died it was obvious that people actually started […]

What you need to do, so I know it’s real

October 12, 2011 Jeff J.

Any type of relationship has its challenges. Whether its personal or professional, you know how to separate the frivolous relationships from the pertinent ones. The easiest question to ask is “how?”. How do I know this friendship isn’t a swindle? How can I tell whether my boss cares about my career path or is a […]

I Love Chelsea Handler

January 27, 2011 Dr. J

Let me preface this post by saying this will be more ignorant than Rza. For those of you who don’t listen to Kanye West or hip-hop, because I know most of you roll together, Rza makes that track when he says, “Champagne wishes and thirty white b*tches!” One time me and my boy are hanging […]
