What Really Grinds My Gears - Part 5 (I'M GOING IN!!!!!!!) *DJ Khaled retard voice*

What up world, it's ya friendly neighborhood blogger Neo back at it again with another installment of my "What Really Grinds My Gears" blog series in which I will highlight numerous things and activities practiced out here in these streets that really just grind my gears. Sorry I been kind of M.I.A. lately been busy on my PS3 rocking with that new NCAA Football 2011 so I haven't had the time to really stay on top of my blog game but I am back today to drop some venom out there so here we go with PART 5!!!!!

1. People that speak Spanish and English in the same damn sentence, 1st off I hate your life if you do this cause it's like come on son make up your mind on what or who you are going to be and represent...it's confusing enough half the time understanding what people are saying when speaking either of the 2 but you are going to mix it up and FURTHER con fuddle me....WTF!!!
2. Black sneakers and white socks...listen there is a certain criteria that we all must follow and doing this should result in an instant lashing from a whip with 7 tails because it's just despicable. If you are going to do this I will make one exception and one exception only and that is please PLEASE wear ankle socks (you know the ones that barely show) and not the joints that cover your damn shin game IM JUST SAYIN!!!
3. Social network site stalkers...look if you are going to sign up to something just to see what someone else is doing you are a waste of time, space, and energy. We see it and hear about it all the time and it's just gross
4. Long ass shorts that look like pants, again make up your dumb ass mind because this is a fad that is just beyond ridiculous to me...the objective of shorts is so you DO NOT have to wear pants and the objective of pants is for if you DO NOT want to wear shorts....you do the math
5. Pants hanging low WITH A FUCKING BELT!!!! Seriously what's the point of the belt, and then sometimes it's an unfastened belt, it's like come on ock you really doing it like that??? If you have to bend down to reach into your pocket for loose change you need to really re prioritize the decisions you are making in your life
6. Female MC's that can only rap about how wet their pussies get or sex...see this is why they get no respect within the hip hop community half the time, NUFF SAID ON THIS ONE!!!
7. Loud systems in your car that sound like pure unadulterated garbage when you ride by...listen if your back plate is all we hear when you are bumpin your sheer existence has been a joke to all those that you know...TURN THAT SHIT DOWN!!!!
8. People that have to be right in your face when they talk to you...it's like really B you gotta be right at my eyebrows to tell me about that shit, back up you bastard!!!!
9. People that can't control their kids in public...if you have to keep saying Ronald's name in IHOP you seriously have to learn how to take control as a parent, I mean if I know his full name by heart before my Bacon Temptation Omelet comes out then there is a serious problem within your household and you may want to fix it or end up on your local news trying to figure out why he just beat your ass in isle 6 at Target and stole your car and crashed it in a Walmart parking lot
10. Gnats........................that's it just GNATS!!!
11. People that type out words in dumb ass manner, so bad that as you read it you have to go back and actually analyze what the fuck they just typed to see if you can decode the bullshit (we've all seen this on Facebook and Twitter)
12. When I walk into work and people ask me shit before I even have a chance to say good morning, log into my computer, check my email on Microsoft Outlook, have a cup of joe, take off my jacket, etc. DAMN DUDE i just walked in this bitch how the fuck should I know if the TPS reports are ready to go...FUCK OUTTA MY FACE AND WAIT TILL 9 o clock when I actually am in the right mindstate!!!
13. Those that do not courtesy flush...REALLY DUDE??? *holds up C'Mon Son sign*
14. Men that allow a women ESPECIALLY their own woman to walk on the side of the sidewalk closest to the street...if you nimrods had half a brain and come common sense and proper upbringing you would know that the woman is supposed to and i repeat SUPPOSED to walk on the inside on the sidewalk not the side closest to the asphalt you fucking moron!!!

And as always if you have some things that really grind your gears please feel free to send me your issues and I will highlight them, thanks for listening...DUECES

NEW JOE BUDDEN - "Short Summer" feat. Emanny

"when you done being critical, say the painter was wild but he made sure the portrait was original"

I haven't been on my blog game much lately because I been locked in on my PS3 with that NCAA Football 2011 but after hearing this new Budden track I had to run to my computer and put my peoples on because I want to make sure none of my fellow Budden fans miss it. Joe spazzed out on this track that's all imma say and he also had a new JBTV vid, well a Cheah201 joint on YouTube so i'm gonna add that too because it fits as you will see....Ayo Joe, you bodied this one brother (as you always do)

"Short Summer"

NEW JBTV/Cheah201 VID!!!

ARE YOU IN THAT MOOD YET!!!!!!!!!!

Neo's Daily Words Of Wisdom

"stop giving or offering advice, inspirational words/quotes, or anything of that nature to anyone if you don't follow it yourself...I'm just sayin" *OJ Simpson the glove doesn't fit shrug*

The Talents Of Batman, But The Heart Of Robin

 

"He has the talents of Batman but the heart of Robin" - Author Unknown

 

These are the last things I will say about Lebron and that quote above that I saw someone write on this website (pastapadre.com) pretty much sum up exactly how I feel. I know half of yall are defending him but then again no matter what he does you always do and then you give him a pass damn near anytime he does something. I will say this, the move came as no and I repeat NO surprise to me because a lot of his previous moves as a pro and things he has said have indicated that this is exactly what he wanted to do all along, take the easy way out...here are some examples that stand out to me:

• Subpar performances whenever a playoff series was on the line, such as the video from Game 6 against the Orlando Magic about a year ago (see below). He averaged 42.0 points a game up to that point then you get a lackluster second half where it looks like he checked it in, see for yourself...matter of fact we all saw it no need for me to even say that

 

• Or this gem of a performance this past postseason, maybe he was hurt, maybe he wasn't, kinda similar to the above post isn't it...turnovers, missed shots down the stretch, notice a pattern here...who knows, well maybe Dan Gilbert

 

• And if Lebron was was hurt as many say just remember MJ's pops was murdered one year, and he did this one below with the flu son...Mike would have never let his team go out like that

• Next in that same game, at the end of the game against Orlando from 2009 he shakes no ones hand after getting mollywhopped and then goes on to say "It's hard for me to congratulate somebody after you just lose to them...I'm a winner. It's not being a poor sport or anything like that. If somebody beats you up, you're not going to congratulate them. That doesn't make sense to me. I'm a competitor. That's what I do. It doesn't make sense for me to go over and shake somebody's hand".....*cough* BULLSHIT *cough* C'mon Son this coming from someone who is the face of the NBA, meanwhile the man everyone loves to hate, Kobe, shakes hands after losses in playoff games and always does his press conferences...see my blog about that from right after it happened a year ago here http://mrallenakaneo.blogspot.com/2009/06/sportsmanship.html

• Next up he is a so called fan of the Yankees, Cowboys, & "formerly" the Bulls, hmmmmmmmm I wonder why that is???

And here is another reason why I am so critical, everyone keeps saying he had no team around him well let's look at the Cavs records from the past 2 seasons (which happened to be tops in the league both times) SHALL WE......in 2009 they went 66-16 and in 2010 they went 61-21, yet you say he had no team, I am sure half the other guys int he league would love to have no team around them that produces 60 plus wins back to back times. See the problem with the whole no team around him logic and saying the Cavs did nothing to give him what he needed is bullshit and it needs to cease right now, I also blogged about that a year ago see here http://mrallenakaneo.blogspot.com/2009/06/lebron-has-no-team-around-him.html. They brought in guys EVERY YEAR since he has been there to help him from Mo Williams, to Antwan Jamison, to even Shaq. They shook that roster up time and time again to appease him and his needs, to give him complimentary players to attempt to succeed with. And let's be honest who were they going to get other wise, what other big names have been available the last 3 summers, I mean they were even going to try to get my boy Amare from the Suns but Shaq being there already probably botched that one. They had a team when they were showboating, Mo Williams was an all-star wasn't he, when Jamison came didn't ESPN and all these other outlets (including some of you *points my finger at the screen*) say that he is going to win the championship this year for sure??? Don't worry I'll wait..............*crickets* that's what I thought, he has chances in Cleveland and they probably could have easily won another 60 games this season if he would have returned but like I stated before he took the easy road, as this blog post is meant to illustrate....

(his epic landmark of a billboard being removed)

My heart goes out to the city of Cleveland, not for just basketball reasons like most probably think, but unlike the rest of the world, ya boy is not surprised.....*Lebron "whatever Cleveland" shoulder shrug*

New Rick Ross & Jay-Z........WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

THIS SONG IS EPIC!!!!!!!!! Hov totally destroyed ALL YALL (Ross was nice too), yeah you *points my finger at the haters*

Rick Ross feat. Jay-Z & John Legend - Free Mason

"rumors of Lucifer I don't know who to trust, whole world want my demise...TURN THE MUSIC UP!!! hear me clearly if yall niggas fear me just say yall fear me FUCK ALL THESE FAIRY TALES, go to hell this is GOD ENGINEERING this is a hail Mary past yall interfering, he without sin shall cast the 1st stone so yall look in the mirror double check yall appearance, bitch I said I was AMAZING not that I'm a mason" - Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter

I would go through the trouble of speaking on all that "BULLSHIT" yall keep talking about when it comes to this devil worshipping, but I will simply say this...how would you feel if someone questioned your faith and what you believed in and then right behind that called you a devil worshipper or whatever yall deem these dudes to be???

"I'm on my third 6 but a devil I'm not!!!"

And as always to those opposed have a strawberry smoothie with broken glass in it on me....DUECES!!!

SMH at The King

Over the course of this past week the man that has done no wrong in the NBA finally did..........good luck to you in Miami Lebron but the team you roll with should have been the 1st team to not make the cut as they have tainted your image with all this madness especially this 1 hour special titled "The Decision". Today we saw why it's still Kobe's league to own....SMH

Budden List Revisited (Guest Blogger - Cuzzo)

BEFORE WE BEGIN YOU CAN PEEP MY CUZZO'S BLOGS AT http://threefoureighty.clipz-status.com/

What’s good world. Well this blog post was inspired by Cuzzo Neo. So he just did a 40 Days of Joe Budden series on his blog and I must say it was quite impressive. But as with all lists, there were some cuts left off and with his blessing I’m providing bonus coverage. So here we go with just Ten Eleven Joe Budden Cuts. Oh yeah and this is in no particular order.

1. The Soul

If you follow me on twitter, you’ll see that I play this song a lot.

“So hard I flirted just to be all nervous

Wish she could see me now, I’m so perverted

I tell her “I’m so glad I found you.

Are you ready for round two? Or can I mount you?”

In old pics I used to look like a clown dude

When I had know idea what I’d amount to

A nigga used to be out of control

Man, I miss the good ol’ days, when we had soul”

2. Happy Holidays

I remember when Joey was doing a live stream of prepping Padded Room, he was recording this track. It’s a song talking about how he feels around others..

“Everybody is putting there mask on

Nigga I rock mine all year

Just to avoid stares

To come across like a nigga who cares

So to my peers I can look like I’m really sincere”

3. Addiction (Freestyle)

Joey’s spin on the Ryan Leslie track caught my attention right off the bat. And whenever I would quote lines from the songs, people would get offended.. Stop that.

“Was at the bar, thought she felt the aura

Figured if I buy her a drink, might could call her

She said “you from Jersey holmes, you not a baller”

I said “stop snapping bitch, you a New Yorker!”

You making offers, something like a stalker

She calls me to practice everything that you taught her

But if chick ever get out of order

You know I gotta off her, dead her, white chalk her, OH!”

4. Stuntin

I remember when this song dropped, Shanda (@ShandaTV) and I thought the best was getting ready to come from Joey. But it didn’t work out that way..

“I don’t babysit Ma, this aint daycare

I fly out tomorrow, what we do here stay’s here

Sport Range pulled up it’s no hate here

Deep Dishes White five fifty, I don’t play fair”

5. Things You Do

This is another Budden song that gets played daily. This track is talking about cheating in relationships.. Real shit..

“IT’S TWO THINGS CHEATING WILL DO…. TELL ME WE AIN’T MEANT TO BE OR MAKE ME JUST APPRECIATE U”

6. Sidetracked

This is another track that I fucks with off Halfway House. Through out the song, he’s on one train of thought and then he’ll switch to another. Let’s see your favorite rapper pull off a track like this.

“I’ve lost so many relationships

(Tell me) Is it, just because I don’t relate to shit?

Me I (me I) I hate ignorance so much

I’m prayin for niggaz that didn’t grow much

Maybe our whole generation was raised wrong

I’m only responsible for me, I gotta stay strong”

7. Def Jam Dis

Awww man.. When this hit the internet, he really vented his thoughts on how he was being used at Def Jam.

“Radio hates “Fire” nah they wont try it

But they love that Rah Digga song that sounds just like it

Wanna keep me under dog, Im the underdog

And they don’t want ya’ll to see up under the fog, so ya’ll

Tell every man in the hood

Gold album one single I’d say im doin hella damn good

Listen here Def Jam, are you deaf man?

Politics aside please don’t interject fam”

8. Pump It Up (New Verse)

Well remember when Shawn Carter snatched “Pump It Up” and wrecked it.. So Joey grabbed it back and added new lyrics..

“everybodys a killer but the deaths dont add up

everybodys a hustler but the money aint comin in”

9. Anything Goes

Another track that I digs off of Halfway House. This track is talking about life in a Joe Budden world..

“I’m just plotting my next step and my next breath

If you don’t do that in excess

It’s really no point, like TV’s in the backseats head-rest

Some niggas get spiteful or angry

Some niggas are prideful and it pains me

Our brain speed ain’t at the same speed

So I ain’t mad, don’t blame y’all, I blame me

Put a wall in my path, I’m just gonna knock it down or go through it

Before you try to knock that down, go through it

Try it and go do it, the folk in my world won’t look at you so stupid”

10. I Couldn’t Help It

Another Joe Budden track that spits that real shit. I’m still wondering who’s he’s talking about in the second verse.

“He has her on T.V. with their kids

I got her on the T.V. in her ribs”

11. All Of Me

Nothing can be said about this song… I mean he just goes in on this track. The whole song is filled with quotable lines.

“See I preach gratitude, she keeps an attitude

Argue long enough and that shit becomes laughable

My norm now since my heart is so natural

Wish I could dwell into all them niggas after you

So not compatible, that we compatible

Its nothin else in this worl that we would rather do

Anybody out there relate to my pain?

Turn the music up let me know that I’m sane”

So that’s the end of my list and it was fun doing it. Shout out again to my Cuzzo Neo for inspiring this post..

SPECIAL 100th BLOG: 40 Days Of Budden (#1)

#1 - "10 Minutes" (100th blog & song explanation below)

"some days i'm not invincible and I feel the pressure...like if everyone is depending on me and I just stop.........then what the fuck happens"

THANK YOU ALL.........oh and HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my queen Key, I love you baby!!!!

40 Days Of Budden (#2)

#2 - Pray For Me

"I need yall to pray for me"

Next to last installment in the "40 Days Of Budden" blog series of mine and this is a great one in my personal opinion because this song as with the last 2 and the one to follow tomorrow reflect me almost to a tee. Pray for me for those not up on Joe's work is a song in which he is at the crossroads and facing his death and he has a chance to speak to the lord and this is a great back and forth conversation between the 2 parties. He asks many questions that I know I have had and I am sure many others have had even if they are too scared to actually admit it. The song is a great track from beginning to end and from the moment I heard it I realized the strength that it carried and have been in love with it from day one. Joe is again giving us raw emotion and truthful words/bars in this track and anyone that I know that has heard this simply has just been speechless at the song and it gives everyone that WOW moment and emotion. Typically the questions that he is asking we all feel but many of us will never even fix our mouths to ask said questions because we are scared to, we are scared to wonder WHY in life and that's something that I am never afraid to do, I have many questions and just like Joe in this song I would not be afraid to ask them. Even as I listen to this as I am writing this description it's just engulfing me in the track...I won't hold yall up any longer, do enjoy!!!

"you stand there and question a nigga that tries hard and finds a way when you keep dealing him fucked up cards...you make mistakes like me far as I can see I think it's a mockery whenever rich niggas win the lottery"

"See my child you need gratitude maybe just a sample, I never give a person anything that they can't handle...don't tell me bout everything you had to go through there is reasons for my actions even if I never showed you...kept trying with you all you did was hurt me still gave you chances to prove that you were worthy...and so I sat with you on the train, i asked you for change you kept calling me names"

"look i'm far from a Christian, not big on religion, but haven't done too much wrong my entire time of living...never killed never tried to though I been lied to, was once suicidal, never read the bible"

That last one was really deep to me because in all honesty if anyone wanted to know a lot about me this whole piece explains it perfect, I was raised as a Christian but I am not too big on the whole religion thing (personal reasons that I do not choose to discuss), I haven't really done a lot of wrong in my life, well one time I thought about killing someone but he was hurting my mother so I think many of us can understand that, been lied to on many levels, I was suicidal at a point in my life because I was weak...many people don;t know this and probably will be shocked to read it but it is true...and I have never read the Bible, just parts of it.

The next installment will probably be a video because not only will it be the ending of my "40 Days Of Budden" series but it will also be my 100th blog (purely coincidence that it happened that way, but what betetr way to celebrate my 100th blog than with one of my favorite MC's....tune in tomorrow for the series finale....

40 Days Of Budden (#3)

#3 - Anti

"I ain't the social type, I ain't with all the congregating...FUCK NIGGAS"

Alright so we are down to our last 3 and like I said to you guys yesterday the last 4 are a total reflection of me and my varying moods & personalities and this one is the perfect representation of me at times...ANTI. This song is just perfect for me when I am in those moods when I just don't want to be bothered, when I want to just close myself off from the world, and when I am not at my most friendly. I tend to get "Anti" on many occasions because well life and people just tend to piss me off and then I just block everything and everyone out. At times you may not see any new blogs or videos from me, you may see my Facebook status as simply "Anti" and it's just because I need time to myself just to sort out thoughts or just to keep from lashing out and bringing the heat to someone's neck if they come at me sideways. Joe really gave it on this song and it's one of those that I listen to frequently due to not only the strong lyrics but an incredible beat. So sit back and enjoy this next 3:58 of your life because I promise you will not be disappointed.

"I ain't got no patience with niggas that cant speak their mind...WHAT THE FUCK YOU GOT A MOUTH FOR"

"i'm past real they past phoney, ignore the personal and physical attacks on me, I remain cool relaxed homie brand new...I ain't got a scratch on me"

"better tell em what reluctance is, i'm controlled by uncontrolled substances"

"be clear I ain't here to be friends you can dislike me I ain't here to pretend"
