Report Card: Joe Buddens: Padded Room
Posted in: Report Card
In case you didn’t know Mighty Mouse a.k.a Joey Buddens has dropped his latest album “Padded Room“; The album features production by various producers including The Klasix, Blastah Beatz, Dub B, Versatile, Dilemma, MoSS and KidSource. So Make sure you go out and support, its on sale! You can afford $7.99 even during a recession Buy Here!!!
Since his 2003 self-titled debut, Joe Budden has been on a run in the hip hop community with his singles “Pump It Up” and “Fire” as well as colloborations with many artists. It seem like he was ready for a follow-up until his CD, The Growth, was shelved by Def Jam and eventually released from the label. With this release, Padded Room, it seems like Joe had a lot on his chest.Joe does play to his strengths on the album. The album opener “Now I Lay” reintroduces the world on who he is and where he left off. Budden upheld his own ground on the Fyu-Chur produced track ”The Future”, trading verses with former nemesis, The Game. It would not be hip hop without any beef address on an album, which he shows his love/hate for Mobb Deep’s own Prodigy on “Blood on the Wall”. He does break down his own trials in the melodic “I Couldn’t Help It”, where we find Budden confessing about how he wasn’t thinking of children with his baby mama but only a fat ass to having a secret love affair with a rapper’s wife in Las Vegas.Buddens ends the album with an ode to DMX “Pray for Me” which he has the conversation with God over a carjacking. As God, voice by Michael “Black Mic” Williams, try to inform Budden about the life that he had and he could do better; Budden, otherwise, calling God’s bluff by stating: You make mistakes like me, as far as I can see/I think it’s a mockery when rich niggas win the lottery.The disturbed mind of Joe Budden dropped some lyrical jewels on Padded Room. However, the beat selection doesn’t quite equal up to what Budden is saying. The 80s-inspired rock tracks like “Don’t Make Me” and “Adrenaline” doesn’t match with the overall feel of the album. This is one album might become a sleeper unless you are a true fan of Hip Hop.Grade B

A Sad Day…
Posted in: Gen. Ed
It’s all bad, a bloody picture of Rihanna after the “alleged“ altercation with then boyfriend Chris Brown has emerged. TMZ obtained this photo of a beaten and bruised Rihanna late last night just hours before her 21st birthday. Yes, Robyn Rihanna Fenty turned 21 today February 20th. All I can say is tomorrow is a brighter day fore what doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger.
As previously reported, Chris Brown was charged with one felony count of criminal threats but more charges are expected to be handed down any day. “Mr. Double Your Pleasure” has a long road ahead of him with a March 5th court date looming ever closer. It has been reported that Mr. Brown has hired Mark Geragos, a popular defense lawyer but its looking worse and worse for him everyday. My prayers go out to both of them, especially Rihanna.

Daily Dose Of Videos
Posted in: Visual Lessons
Yesterday Kanye released a visually disturbing yet still dope video for “Welcome To Heartbreak” that features Kid (Don’t Taze Me Bro) Cudi. This video release comes as a surprise seeing that Ye’s next single is scheduled as being “Amazing” featuring Young Jeezy.
Speaking of Young Jeezy, the Snowman dropped an Internet video for his bass ridden street anthem “Welcome Back.”
Last but not least B.O.B delivers up another hot video for another hot song off his “Who The Fuck Is B.O.B” mixtape. I truly hope things go as they should for Bobby Ray, the industry needs a shot substance right about now.J. Manning

The NY Post Racist Cartoon
Posted in: Gen. Ed
The New York Post featured this illustration in Wednesday’s by Sean Delonas after two police officers had to shot and killed a 200 lb. pet chimpanzee in Connecticut. Al Sharpton quickly released a statement
saying…“The cartoon in today’s New York Post is troubling at best given the historic racist attacks of African-Americans as being synonymous with monkeys. One has to question whether the cartoonist is making a less than casual reference to this when in the cartoon they have police saying after shooting a chimpanzee that “Now they will have to find someone else to write the stimulus bill.”
“Being that the stimulus bill has been the first legislative victory of President Barack Obama (the first African American president) and has become synonymous with him it is not a reach to wonder are they inferring that a monkey wrote the last bill?”
So what do you think? Personally it pisses me off, I would expect this from some backwards hick paper, but your talking about the NY Post come on, how did this even get to the editors desk?!?! To let the NY Post know what you think about the cartoon email the editor Col Allan at colallan@nypost.com and the cartoonist Sean Delonas at seandelonas@gmail.com.
