Whhhhoooooaaaa!



We here at JMHNyd love us some Kanye. It's no secret. We've lavished loving praises upon on numerous occasions. He's a prolific hit-maker, a distinguished visionary and a pioneer of multiple mediums. Still, like the like billions of others on the planet who don't share the Midas touch with him, he is not without his gaffes. Numero uno on that list right now has to be his chosen coif, his preferred hairdo, his mangy mane. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, what I am trying to tell you is the Louis Vuitton Don, Kanye West, has some sort of afro-mullet thing on his head! Kanye aims to be a trendsetter, and we appreciate him trying. We would also appreciate, if like on the bogus first cut of Love Lockdown, Kanye admits that he was wrong and goes another direction. Please Kanye, think of the children!

Sorry I couldn't just embed this one, but this ghastly ad is worth one more click than normal.

"Feels Like" Jibba-Jabba

At this time of the year the thought of even snowmen shivering is hardly inconceivable.  It is cold outside.  But how cold is it?  Thanks to some fella named Fahrenheit we are blessed with a measure of temperature, but that isn't enough for some people.  For some, knowing it is 14 degrees outside fails to alert them sufficiently to bundle up.  These information craving fiends need more; they need to know what it "feels like."

"Well, it is five degrees out, but it feels like negative two."  What?  If it really feels colder than what one would expect five degrees to feel like, maybe they should re-calibrate their expectations to accommodate reality.  Wind chill I understand, but I just can't get down with "feels like."  I'm sorry.

And I am not a licensed meteorologist (or cosmetologist for that matter) so please enlighten me if I'm missing something.

What will cars in the future sound like?


Well thats easy!! If for any reason you are around copious amounts of snow like I am in beautiful Providence, RI......riiiiight.....listen to the sound of the cars driving on the thick layers of snow. I heard it earlier today and for some reason it registered to me that this is what cars will sounds like in the future. No sounds of the rubber meeting the asphalt, no stalling engines...just the quiet hum of the engine...check it out next time u are in a suitable situation, listen out for it..and think about futuristic cars lol...

What is " Good" Music?





So over the past few years, in hip hop particularly, there have always been critics, some qualified, most not, who like to categorize music has being "good" music or "bad" music. This has always been an interesting subject to me but lately it has been brought to my attention because of numerous people saying that Lil Wayne is not a good rapper because "he isn't talking about anything"....well....what is it exactly do you want him to talk about? Do you want every song to be a ballad, or a story about something? Every song to be about the state of society? Every song to be a tribute to one of his dead homies? I dunno about you but i certainly do not! Those songs are cool in moderation. Personally, I believe that good music can be something with a nice beat (obviously I'm bias), just something that makes you move, makes you feel good, but not necessarily potent lyrically. Soulja Boy is another rapper who has been condemned because of his lyrics. But the same people who criticize him are the ones who were at the party leading the mass "Crank Dat" ritual. Who cares what he is talking about if you enjoy listening to it?! Plus, if you really really hate it that much, don't listen to it! Simple as that! .

Ok, Im off my soap box :)
