Thursday Theme - Barbecue!

It is after 8pm, and it is 85 degrees outside. So, we have been making full use of our excellent disposable barbecue I bought back in July, for the 4th of July. Cooking indoors with no a/c is not even an option right now. 

I bought my cute little bbq for $13.99 at Ace Hardware. Granted, it does not have a cover. (I have sometimes created a makeshift one using aluminum foil). But for a perfectly efficient, cost-effective grill for those limited on space, it is such a treat. 

I especially love cooking using Cowboy brand hardwood lump charcoal. Forgive my ignorance, but I had never known about these natural briskets until recently, and I love them. They have a nice flavor, and I really like the idea of using real wood to cook. There is something very homey and rustic about it. 

Anyway, I hope everyone is staying cool (or warm) on this Thursday night. Happy almost Friday! >.<

Sasha Go Hard

We have been lucky enough to witness a reemergence of phenomenal female rappers lately. We've got range from Cardi & Meg, to Noname & Rhapsody, to Renni Rucci & LightskinKeisha, just to name a few. But the girls are most certainly out here and we LOVE to see it. I would like to take a moment to appreciate Sasha Go Hard. This Detroit-based gem is a real one, as explained on her 2018 "No Problems" album . I want her to be great. I love her story, her voice (& accent), and her music. Sasha Go Hard tells the all-too-familiar plight of a young Black woman with a daughter to mold. "Done Being Nice" & "Shake" are two of her most popular singles and my personal favorites. These tracks are found on her second album of 2018, "Make America Ratchet Again", which is obviously an amazing title, and the anthem this nation actually deserves.  "The Porch" on MARA is a perfect song, descriptive of hood life and nostalgia.

I Love Lil Wayne

Truly. Making me laugh will make me a fan of your art. That's the reason I love E40 so much. I know it's a silly metric but that preference is obviously personal. I assess other styles and variations for different purposes. And, of course, it depends on what I'm in the mood for. Lil Wayne is a comedian. First off, his voice is nasally, high, and raspy at the same time. He just sounds funny. He is a wordsmith who delivers vivid analogies. He is a master at genre bending, collaborating with an array of artists from Willie Nelson to Adam Levine. But let's step back into 2010 for a second to discuss Lil Wayne's feature on Nicki Minaj's "Roman's Revenge" remix, which should be played with volume UP. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FBEdoxBF4I "I'm Tune/Salt in the wound I'm up in this bitch /pardon the goons (flex) Throw dirt on the floor/get caught in the broom ("what goes around comes around") I like a big wet pussy
