Devin The Dude Hits The Road, Rocko Wakes You Up Right, Is The Josh Howard Drama In Overkill?
Posted on September 19, 2008 1:00 PM
The legendary Devin the Dude takes to the road on a 30 plus city tour. Talking about well deserved. If you can don't miss it. Devin is one of Hip-Hop's treasures and finally he might be on his way to claiming his spot in music. Devin's music does have a tremendous amount of smoky references but don't let that turn you away because his social commentary and storytelling ability are those that would rival anyone in the game. Here are the dates and a throwback just to get ya in the mood.
Rocko is another good example of the wide variety of hip-hop that is out there. His album is full of hustla music. This song is the very best when actually played early in the morning first thing. Try it next Monday. Wake up and crank this sh*t loud as hell and I guarantee that you'll have that extra pep in ya step. Only thing on my mind....
Josh Howard from the Dallas Mavericks is being roasted for this clip. This won't go away until they use him as an example. Mark my word. Now let's be real about this situation. Dude did this on a camera phone. If he's not entitled to his own thoughts then wtf.
Now I don't know what's so bad about what he said, y'all know damn well a great deal of us feel like screw this country until they step up and be the country they claim to be. After Katrina and 911 it's obvious that peoples lives are the last thing that the system is worried about.
And the result of that would be a lot of people who feel just like Josh. So regardless of what happens to this dude somebody stand up for him because all he's doing is expressing the true feelings of a lot of black America. Or am I wrong?
And to end on a sunny note, here's another joint from Sunny Valentine here:
