30 for 30... 30 dumb girl picture poses in 30 days 1. (Standard) Duck Lips

With me being a Producer/Artist (and all the many array of titles I like to put after slashes to make me feel better about myself..). my post are usually music related. So before we get started with the subject of this blog, go download my new single Beastie Boys ! Egh Emm... Now that we got that out the way... Me and my now FIVE blog spot followers will be going on a journey over the next 30 days. We will be doing in depth analysis of the dumb girl picture poses. Yes, you've seen the Duck Lips, You've seen the back breaker, You've seen the boy pose with duck lips and bad photoshop etc etc
... but has this phenomenon ever been broken down? Have the violations ever been thoroughly explained? Well, I'm here to be a part of the SOLUTION! I have made myself a part of the experiments... risking bodily injury, brain damage and ultimately my life. Still I press on in order to move the culture and civilization forward. The standard bad female picture 99.9% of the time starts with (DUM DUM DUM) DUCK LIPS!
It's the Kareem Abdul Jabar skyhook of bad poses. The MJ fade away, the Dirk Nowitzski one legged jumper, the George Gervin finger roll, the Kobe mid range jumper, the GO TO MOVE for bad female pics. What does this say? What message are we sending to our little girls when women that are here to teach them, to lead them outchea looking like duck billed platypus's? This effects the home. Somehow my five year old daughter got wind of this phenomenon. As a father, imagine... the very thing you have dedicated your LIFE to preventing finding its way back to your door step. My beautiful Savannah, a victim. I indeed cried in the car
1. Lets address the PROBLEM with Duck lips. It's just simply unnatural. I mean, lets say a dude approached you and was trying to talk to you. What would your facial expression be? Maybe a smile, Maybe a blank stare if you ain't feeling him, all acceptable. You ain't NEVER in your life did some damn ducked lips while talking to a dude. If you have you crazy as hell. You honestly look like Gary Coleman after he finished saying "WHAT YOU TALKN BOUT WILLIS".
2. The Solution "JUST SMILE". Duck lips reek of I'm being extra. In all your pictures, you want to come off natural and effortless. So if there are any reports of duck lips, lets not judge. Lets love. Lets help. Lets come together as a community to stop this. If anyone is wondering who made me the expert on how girls should take pics... tell them I was once like them. I was sitting around, doing nothing with my life. I was a loser... then I got my masters in dumb girl picture poses at Everest College and my life has been forever more transformed. Fin-

Been a MINUTE!

It's been nearly a year and a half since my last blog. Alas, I RETURN to present my FOUR Blog spot followers with my new single "Beastie Boys"!!! It's the first joint from my upcoming "Oak Cliff Huxtable" project and it features my boy Knes. Funny story about this track... about a year and some change ago my boy S1 hits me up and says "Jay and Ye are looking for a Run this Town type of beat for Watch the Throne". At the time I was in studio with Ni-Taylor working on Taylored Rhodes, but that email shut down that session for the day (lol). Funny thing is it seemed like everything just clicked! I remember Ni going on the balcony to write a verse, and an hour later she came in to what was the finished product of Beastie Boys. It came together magically! I found a DOPE break beat compliments of my boy Lonestarr. Threw some choirs on it, Guitar, Strings Sub Bass and Viola! Magic (future voice). I just KNEW my name would be in those "WTT" credits... Short story long, that didn't happen. LOL. But hey, just setting myself up for bigger blessings, right Lord? (looks up to sky concerned). I am happy with how the track turned out and the response. Shouts out to my boy Knes for a dope verse and for his chopped up Cipher Remix verse making a dope hook. Finally, the irony in it all is that we were working on the song a month before MCA's untimely passing. How fitting it was to release the song as a dedication to his "Beastiness" R.I.P to the Great Adam Yauch! "FOREVER BEASTIE"
