SOHH Gyant Randomness: When Splaboo's Attack!! Plus, New Artist Poppin Or Floppin: Vawn "Cuz I Hustle"
Posted on March 17, 2008 6:33 AM
[Blogger Note: It's been one long crazy ass weekend. Between the Tornado that hit, and the parties that just wouldn't stop your boy is BEAT. I will be updating the blog a little later today. I got to get some sleep. But I typed this up last week, and didn't get around to posting it. Check it out. Plus check out Vawn below too.]
If you’re some how baffled by the title of this post allow me to clarify what a splaboo is exactly. According to court documents the King of Pop [or should I say former], Michael Jackson, refers to all black people as a splaboo. When this news first came out years ago, of course people were outraged. But, over time friend in my head, Wendy Williams, has coined it as a black person who does something incredibly ignorant that is flashy, and extremely ghetto.
After watching this video of Floyd Maywheather allowing cameras to follow him into his bed room where he pulls out one million dollars from his night stand as well as allow himself to be taped counting, and storing such a large amount into a big duffle bag. I am more than convinced that the boxing champion is extremely splaboo.
Why we as black people, and yes it not just entertainers, continue to floss what he have [or more importantly what we don't have] in such an exaggerated way is beyond me. We seem to live in a society that perpetuates the idea that deems it necessary to display your earnings in such materialistic way i.e. incredibly expensive jewelry, an expensive automobile, or hell even the most expensive mobile phone, And if you somehow abandon those splabovian principles you're considered to be corny.
I understand that most of us come from nothing. Most of us have spent our entire lives struggling SOHH we feel the need to floss out of control. But there comes a point when you have be smart about your own personal situation. Showing people where you keep cash, even if only for promotional purposes is just down right splaboovian.
This video is the most blatant example of why we as a people just cant seem to come up like our white counterparts.
It is my prediction that this dude will be broke in 5 years time. Black people; We are going to have to make better choices with our finances.
And you all are letting that marinate, have a listen to yet another So So Def recording artist who goes by the name of Vawn,
His official single "Cuz I Hustle" features Purple Ribbon's Scar. I believe Vawn was signed to JD's So So Def label [actually I just got an email. He is NOT with So So Def he's Def-Jam all the way]. I have had the chance to chat it up with the Atlanta rapper a few times, and he's a pretty cool dude.
Take a listen to his single, and decide for yourself if he's poppin', or floppin'
Talk to y'all lata,

Damn, them tornados were some shit... I'm up in the Westin on the 69th floor getting laid out by some blonde twins by the name of Kelly and Michelle when the next thing I knew, this big ass tornado flies by threatening to bust the windows out my room and put a cease to my boot-knocking. I put my transmission in hyper-fuck, busted off in Kelly and Michelle's faces, threw on a robe, grabbed the Glock 17 with the 33 rd clip and sprinted down the stairwell to the ground floor. (Official Time: 1min, 38.652 seconds.) I ran out onto the street and bucked off about 25 shots at that thing and sure enough, the tornado started leaning crazy to one side and straight fell over somewhere by Centennial Park. They say that if it were not for my quick actions, the tornado would have made a crazy left turn and went up to Marietta. See, it's like I was destined to be in Atlanta, to be in Kelly and Michelle, and to be where I was when I was there. In Marietta, they're talking about giving me another Hero's award, but I told em I don't have any more room for them shits. I get one on the average of 2 a month and they're taking up all the space next to my flat screen in the media room...any more and the flat-screen would have to go--and that ain't happenin...
Peace to all my White Niggaz unscathed by that bitch ass tornado.
--OG Matt Herbz--
