THE JASON AND DAVID VARIETY SHOW...
...presented commercial free by the good folks at Anheuser-Busch Incorporated. Don't let your parents and schools fool you.... drinking is not only good, clean wholesome fun. It's downright patriotic.
*******************************************************
Jason: Yo, you ever heard of El Taurino?
David: Yeah dude. I won a couple of gold medals there, mang. Didn't you read about it in the news?
Jason: I'm talking about the restaurant, not the Winter Olympic, fool.
David: Oh. Umm, I guess no then.
******************************************************
Jason: Yo, have you ever heard of "A Thousand Cranes"?
David: Fool! I only mastered that technique like a thousand years ago!
(David then proceeds -- rather enthusiastically -- to break out a series of poses and manuveurs that resemble a paralyzed Karate Kid strung out on an assortment of uppers. HIIII-YAA!!! He finishes this display with a fist-clenched, arms-shaking pose, his eyes burning with the spirit of a ADHD tiger)
<awkward silence>
Jason: Umm, I was talking about the restaurant.
David: Oh. <he straightens out and puts his hands back in his pockets> Nah, never heard.
*****************************************************
Jason: Now that I have health insurance, I feel like I can finally live my life.
David: Umm, why?
Jason: Cuz now I don't have to fear getting my ass kicked. I can be who I want to be... nay, who I NEED to be. I'm freeeeeeeeeee!!!
David: Umm, maybe you should purchase some fire arms.
Jason: Don't need it. I roll with Blue Cross PPO now. BLUE CROSS!!! WHAT, WHAT!!!!
***********************************************************
Jason <trying to make fun of me>: You are HIDING DIX-MEX-KITS!
(What Jason was trying to say: You are HIGHLY DYSLEXIC)
The irony is what killed me.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Some random thoughts on some random rappers...
It seemed like everyone was asking me my opinion about Gnarls Barkley, as if I'm some sort of expert that would legitimize their own opinion. Well, I am, so keep asking me. I like both dangermouse and ceelo. I think they're both crazy enough to seismic shift the fuckin landscape, individually. They're both too capricious, experimental and true to their music to stay as a unit too long, I suspect. And its a trip that the dude that did the grey album, and dude that is the soul machine, would blow up. I feel like them blowing up is a fluke; one of those rare instances where something genuine somehow just catches fire. And in the end, it will be another blip that won't really change anything.
Daaaah well, at least some of em make it.
Go check out Ceelo's Soul Machine album, if you haven't already. Slept on classic, in my opinion. And dangermouse's beats on dangerdoom cd is straight funktified fire, I mean, really revolutionary stuff. Too bad they were wasted on MF Doom.
Speaking of fools blowing up, watch for Lupe Fiasco. He guested on track 3, Kayne. I guess everyone already knows he's gonna blow up, and good for him. I like him a lot. You're not going to find too many skilled MCs on the radio, but this guy is just to much skills. Just overflowing with ridiculous technique, in my opinion. Complex rhyme structures, never ending metaphors. And oh so poetic. Dude is black-belt, nerdy/intellectual, black muslim skater from the ghetto who's into Japanese anime. Dude gots so much cross-over appeal, I wouldn't be surprised if some extinct species resurrect to bop they heads everytime a Lupe single drops. It's just that crazy, yall.
Jay-Z calls him a "breath of fresh air". If you're bored enough, check this interview. How many rappers you know talk like that? Humble dude, intellectual, thoughtful, honest. Don't get me wrong, I love how emcees sometimes be wylin out with their overheated lyrical imaginations and all, but how often you see this?.....

Anyways, if he doesn't blow up, daaah well, some of em don't make it.
