Welcome to My Mamas Basement

With this blog i will do a lot of rambling about, nothing really. I see, or hear things that will inspire me to vent, or just relay. Being an Emcee I'm always finding ammunition from the strangest places... You might end up on here if you aren't careful. Just a warning.

Came Home!!!

Photobucket
We just had the welcome home show on Friday night! It was a great night. Every act came prepared, meaning that their "A" games were brought. Of course it was an even prouder moment for me, because my little brother performed. He goes by the name of A Dot. Murdered it! That's what was good about that show tho, was the overall hypeness of it. It was quite an honor to share the stage with all the guys. It's been a great pleasure to be on this tour. Leo and Mags', you guys are great people. Had a blast with you cats. Gotta come to the D real soon.
July 2nd marks the long awaited debut of my crew members, Draztik and Sleepy Biggs. Smokers cough! Soon to be labled a classic. This will be at The Old Miami (of course). Check out the first video off the project below. Thank you guys for supporting what USM is trying to do, and just genuinely getting it! It's very much appreciated.

Nelson B.C

This has been such a crazy week! First it seemed like it took forever to even get to Nelson. There were many variables that contributed to that statement. First off it took us almost 2 days to get there.During the drive we encountered so many problems. The PPf crew caught a flat at like 4 in the morning one night. To my suprise none of them had ever changed a tire before. So of course you know ya' boy came through for them. Had it changed in like 15 mins in the rain and pretty cold temps.
Back on tyhe road again, so we thought. In our vehicle,(the USM ride) the oil light came on. No biggie, you would think. But apparently it was more than just an oil related problem. So for a hot sec we were posted up in Ft. Macloud(I'm sorry if its mispelled) Alberta i believe. Mostly Native tribes. Thats where i discovered that beer in canada is really damn expensive! I mean 24.99 for a damn 12 pack of Heiniken? RAPE!! Anyways, Sleepy Biggs and I jumped in the PPF mobile, while Asylum 7 and A. Biggs went with the van on the tow truck. They got a room in Lethridge Alberta to wait till the next day so they could get the van oil changed up. Cool right? Naw, but we'll get back to that in a minute.
So we're riding through the foothills and mountains on the way to Nelson. Everything is quite beautiful and then the sun goes down. Long story short I'm at the wheel now. These were the most dangerous roads I've ever seen. Not only were they narrow, winding, two-lane roads. But it was pitch black,raining, and the thickest fog I'd ever seen. Also, there was quite alot of wild game signs. You know you always see the signs, and you think "i might see some deer", the exact same thing that was going through my mind, untill i saw Mr. Moose. This thing was the biggest thing I'd ever seen. I mean at least 2 times the size of the Camry we were driving. 3 minutes before, and we would have been meeting Mr. Moose upclose and personal. Cars are speeding pass, not one single light. Absolutely insane. I prayed the whole way to Nelson. Then we arrived. Nelson was an awesome little town in the middle of the foothills of B. C. These people were soo kind. Where else would you go and practically get, the most spectabular and wonderous chron on the planet just given to you. I literally was in a daze for 2 days. The show was a blur, either it was an awful show, or i was just too blowed to even care. LOl, actually there was no one there. Well maybe a couple people. I still had a blast tho.
Back to the van, obviously A7 and A.Biggs made it to Nelson. But the damage to the van was deeper than anyone had even thought. We were all prepared to start the journey to Calgary. Let's just say that oil changed quickly turned into a rod knock in the engine. We were sputtering along as best we could. We got as far as Coeur D' Alene Idaho. Then we posted up at a hotel. If we were gonna come home, i wanted to do it immediately. So the next morning I hopped 3 flights to come back to the D. Talk about home sick. Lol. The tour for USM was cut short unfortunately. We had a pretty good time while it lasted. Shouts out to Leo37 and Magnolious for continuing to hold it down for us. We'll see those cats again along wit Ill-Legit and my little brother A Dot on June 18th at the Old Miami (of course). So bring ya asses out and support the "Homecoming" of USM back to the D. I'll see ya there. Below I'm posting the roster episode that i promised in the last one. Enjoy!!!
