E man I don't know...I'm giving the benefit of the doubt on this one...cuz I believe in the collective unconscious.

But Wang did really turn this piece out. That's why I mentioned it in the first place.

I looked at your original piece and I have a comment for you...I find what DP (Dead Prez) is doing very interesting. They are going in the other direction with this...but nothing different than what 50 or any other freestyle artist has done. I just thought that once they broke the chains...they'd drop some time bombs with some beats that we could one day call classics. But their twist, of politicizing the most banal rap songs is definitely engaging.

No, definitely... Oliver turned this one out. I am only giving credit where it is due.

I'm not sure what's up with Dead Prez. But I'm definitely feeling their latest album. I like that "Turn Off The Radio" and the Biggie song. Dead Prez are amazing. That scene in "White Boyz" is phenomenal. I will admit that I take some exceptions with their Marxist beliefs, but they have made a decent transition out of the Loud camp.

anyway, yeah... let's do some IM.

Yo - seriously, pure coincidence. I pitched the Voice the Nas story right after Lt. Dan came out with the "Hova's Son" CD - this was in mid-July. I filed the story by late July but it took them damn near six weeks to actually publish it. I got the time-stamped emails to prove it :)

Why don't we just chalk this up to "great minds think alike".

Thanks for the shout out though!

Oliver

Nope, sorry... you can't get off that easily. I'm going to need to those time-stamped emails, or you'll be the next Jayson Blair. ;)

Seriously, it's a funny coincidence. I like to call out various writers and see if they are for real or not. It's good to see you have a sense of humor about you.

I just spoke with Kulsum at ECW Press and he said he is sending me a copy of your new book. I would have bought one, but maybe you will accept a free, advanced copy of my own book in exchange.

Anyway, I'm going to review your book -- most favorably, I imagine -- and then we should do an interview.

What you say, huh?

Oliver's coppin a plea.. hahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahaha

Rob Swift vs the Blend
(a meditation on a “the Blend” number two and Rob Swift’s “Ablist”)
by
Lawrence Ytzhak Braithwaite (aka Lord Patch)
Fernwood/The Hood/New Palestine 1424...

What’s the definition of this essay:

...allow me to demonstrate...

...a journey in my mental...carvan from Ditch to Legends, contemplating
bass domination, of George Scott 3rd, as he leads contortions of riddim,
like a graffer works a rhyme on wallz via tips and nozzles, like an
illustrator transforms word to image, like writers collects the syntax
of sight into the symbolism of lexis, like cymbals and kneck snapping
snares used by a selector Swift at the controls on this journey ? this
is how I was travelling while contemplating flow. This thought is
immediate. The elements of art and foreign flava in sonic epistle as a
soundtrack in desidant/miltant Victorians tearing errors artistically to
make the set go boom; it moves the sight/seen mise en byme toons steppin
to be heard in this city to prove and show it’s post modem cut and paste
flex. Turntablist to carTUNIST -- skillz tight like Panochio/an idiot
gonna solo/paint a village thick like bass so low = all city audio
addict thematic. Comics about comics vs Turntablist enabling
turntablists on cds. “What would you do if a viscous enemy suddenly
started comin at you armed to the teeth and ready to kill you? ...”a
little hard to ignore. (indeed) “There must be something unpalatable
about the comics to the female of the species.:. “I rented ‘Ghost Dog:
Way of the Samurai’ last night. Have you seen it? Don’t you think it
would make a good graphic novel?” S’all dope on plastics and paper; from
the flex of a wrist -- the pressure point of the pen on the paper to
the/to the/and to the... scratch of the ink and the contours of grooves
ground down on vinyl = “all my competitors get chopped up”.

How many panels per page? ...
How many beats per minute? ...
How fast does light travel? 186,000 miles per second/299,792,458 metres
per second
How fast does sound travel? 1129 feet per seccond/344 metres per second
This is our day
This is
Our
is
Our ...day

This essay:

...a try and attempt at a skill, nah fail, luring from one acoustic
space to the space btwn panels sincing details of signifiers into
samples of sounds to bites from life like “waiting on the corner” in
Victoria “with a pizza in one hand and campy horror movies in the
other’. Choppin from track to audio narrative to make “the panel of each
and every comic book a (...) statement” = “this is our day”. What’s’
the definition of this kite on the tight light and shaded writs of Blend
and the crack choppin headshells of Rob Swift? “teenage boys”? “I can
remember just about every writer or artist that I’ve enjoyed since I was
a kid”; the motivation of surreality in the unreality of reality what is
the fluidity of the complexity of the audio comic panel soundtrack about
heads (hedz?) and lives in undisputable art for the knots come mental
bangers. Macluhan, Mclaren born from Tzara -- “all my competitors get
chopped up”.

S’all la!!!

...manga/daDA of sound set to soul... the Gyson collection of theory
into practical boppin rubber end sole come the unanimated waitng for a
referent to send messages out to phat cuts. ...on boards, card or
controlled, with levers... It’s the intellectual alienation of Ghost
Dog’s urban dumbshow set to glued mats measured mathematically ? my
themes and tactics set to blend this semiotics to sonic. Brain Wilson’s
Lee/Tubby and King Perry’s echo chamber of versions plastered on paper
as the subtitled parchments of PacNW Victorian ins steppin up with
Jinnutiy in possessions; “with a pizza in one hand and campy horror
movies in the other’ -- inspiration/depression/madness petting sounds
and holding tight to egos = Neckbeard upsets Clay George like the
Upsetter and sends Portishead on run for their metre. 1 is alwys born
from a cypher.

The Ablist vs the illustrator and essayist = A swift ambient to the
recorded tales of Brassard, gignaC AND desrosiers blend to manipulating
faders for the weight of pencils and arms carving the image or tone to
toons or tunes made flat on mats. ...is ‘all that scratchin is making
you (r) itch’ = capitalism vs symbolism. Wonder Woman/Cat Woman +
enlightend society + selling = “Playboy bunnies meets the WWF” or
Akil’s “The Science of Manufacturing The Criminal Black Mind” =
industry/buy product amerkkkanadian tagged/chopped/graphed into a
culture for the dollar ? “you know how boy’s like to fight...”. That
chick in the comicshop wants to holla.... Out stretched balanced arms
holding needles or pens. Stay on point!!! Panel to panel//table to
table//dubplates etches foundations and sketches like specials being
versioned by Cowboy Bebop as Hernandez launches mucho love with
rockets. ¡Ya! Yo!!! is that a pen or a headshell in your pocket? Or are
you just sharpening your pencil? Anime mi hentai (e) -- writing tones
like stencils.

What’s the definition of:

...sound to image to writs of urban (f) ables (ist) = I love you. I luv
union. I level unions with “so/so/so much class. Mackin Rob to Matt with
phatty tips and tracks = “all my competitors get chopped up”. The sound
of math in my attic. “What would you do if a viscous enemy suddenly
started comin at you armed to the teeth and ready to kill you?” “a
little hard to ignore.” (I’m sure) “all my competitors get chopped up”
-- in my mental carvan/rattling a sound like a ballpoint in a can/baring
witness at 1129 feet per second/with Macluhan and Ellington/using light
as a carrier wave/ disguised as a comicbook and cutmaster on
disk/Afroeurasian/visual soundscapes/injecting ink on wallz and
audiotape = “...I became a janitor of sorts” “Brainstorming” at “Night
time” for the “manufactured Black...“mindframe of the absent minded
and insecure...” -- now, there’s “Something Different” for you.
