Attack takes a "WHAT'S UPPER" look this week with:
Kiz-One
(KKFI-MO):

of February to the 28th. I’ll be in
Atlanta,
New
Orleans,
Huston, and Austin supporting MC Reach. Reach won
the Scion next up competition and he gets to open

these events. If anybody can be so nice to maybe hook up
some interviews while we are there please hit me up at
KIZONE@gmail.com and get’er done"...
Damian Rodriguez
(KGNU-CO):
"Good Superbowl game til the 3rd quarter. I’m
glad the game was a real element game, with rain to
spice it up. Got some dope tracks this week, feelin the
new j.dilla track.
Ghetto highlight of the week:
Well,
this one goes back to memorial day last year southbeach.
I crept up behind someone & snapped the photo. Its self
explanatory. Yes I really took the picture, if anyone
wants the bigger version and all its nastieness, holla.
Moral:
Your ghetto when u have no shame, nasty booty, fake
louis vuitton and much much more"...
Kazzeo
(KHDC-CA): "So the Superbowl is over & done with.
I thought the game was really good. With all the rain
and the turnovers, it was thoroughly entertaining. And
then Prince came on at halftime and killed it.
Say what you want, seeing him sing "Purple Rain" in the
rain was amazing! If you've never seen him perform live,
you're truly missing out. Congratulations to the
Colts.
Between Nas' "Where Are They Now" tracks and
VH1's "White Rapper Show", a lot of forgotten mc's
are getting some shine again. I laughed my ass off
seeing Bushwick Bill on the VH1 show. I wonder
who would win in a fight between him and Beetlejuice.
Speaking of VH1, one of my favorite comedians has a show
starting on there soon. Andrew "Dice" Clay will
be doing some sort of reality show soon. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Now for a day, despite her being a few pounds too late,
I am amped to see Mariah Carey in Playboy. Then I
find out she's not even doing it correctly. Who the hell
want's to see her in a bikini? Or should I say "who
hasn't already seen it"? I mean all you have to do is
watch her videos or look at her album covers for that.
Show some skin or just go way.
I finally got around to seeing "The Pursuit Of
Happiness". Man, talk about a depressing movie. Sure, it
turns around in the last 10 minutes. But the rest of the
movie is like one kick to the face after the other.
Finally, if you live in LA and see a Range Rover
pulling up behind you, you better hope that Brandy
isn't behind the wheel. I think she succeeding in
her quest of "wanting to be down" since she's about to
be "sitting up in her room" because when it comes to
hitting the breaks, "almost doesn't count""...
Anilast
aka Stuart de la Rosa (KSMT-CO): "Whats up
fam. Just hitting you off with the update of the father
daughter dance. Things went well untill I play blackeye
peas, lets get retarded in here. One of the fathers came
up to me and told me that this was not the streets of
Detroit but the father daughter dance, he explained that
Hip-Hop music was very offence and that I needed to turn
it off and turn the volume down. I laughed and said out
of 210 people you are the only one not dancing or having
a good time, so shut up and go dance with your daughter.
The rest of the night he sat in the corner starring at
me, so the good dj I am I played outkast The way
you move and another black eye peas yea mama.
Other then one grumpy ass old man the dance went well.
Enogh about that on to the charts. Hope everyone has a
great rest of the week............D.I.T.C For Life"...
Edgie
Kokoski
(WUNH-NH):
"Whoa…did everyone hear that 50 Cent/Cam’ron
exchange from Angie Martinez’ radio show? Get
ready for the G-Unit/Diplomats war…I give
it another 3 days before the ultra-violent diss songs
start popping up. I guess it begs an interesting
question though: Is it better to be signed to a major
and sell 300,000 records or be signed to an indy and
sell 300,000 records? I guess if fame is your goal, 300K
on a major is better. If you are after dollars and
nothing else, 300K on an indy is the place to be. In
these days of downloads, I think anybody is lucky to
sell 300,000 period…
Most
ridiculous Hip-Hop line of the week:
“After we hit the club, baby I'm gonna hit them
draws/Yeah, I'm gonna break you off/And that’s all/Every
freak should have a picture of my dick on they walls”
- Polow Da Don from Rich Boy’s
smash hit “Throw Some D’s”
I
don’t think I even need to explain what makes this so
ridiculous, but I do watch the video for this song and
wonder if I could successfully land an airplane on Rich
Boy’s forehead.
I
finally took in an episode of “The White Rapper Show”
this week. In the episode, the contestants battled it
out to see who could make a better club banger over a
Just Blaze beat. Although I found the sessions in
Baseline with Just Blaze to be very interesting and
informative, I couldn’t help but feel saddened by how
the microcosm of this show really highlighted what is
wrong with Hip-Hop. One team of contestants wanted to
make a song about smoking weed in the club (real
original), but one cat on the team who was politically
conscious refused to endorse the drug use in the record
because of his work with youth. After being mocked and
badgered, he finally tried to flip something metaphoric
and was met with disdain by his teammates. Granted, the
kid was a starry eyed backpacker, but I respected him
trying to say something original and positive on his
record. I wish VH1 would make a game show where artists
competed to see who is the best MC, and not the best
rapper. We’ve got too many rappers as it is"...
John
"DJ DePen" McCarthy
(WUSR-PA): "My name is Dj DePen, and
I’m a DJ and the Urban Director at WUSR Scranton,
the college radio station for the University of
Scranton. I’ve had a passion for Underground Hip Hop
for just under a decade. This is only my first year as
the Urban Director, and I’m putting the “dire” back in
the title because we are in dire need of more music. The
station used spin monthly promo’s from any flavor of the
month mainstream artist. I helped initiate a
station-wide policy to eliminate a wide majority of top
40 mainstream artists. But since I dropped the
guillotine on years of tracks, I’m in a need of music.
Artists underground and independent that support a
positive movement for Hip-Hop I want to play; I need to
play. WUSR Scranton holds the main listening audience
for the
Scranton
area, and I would love nothing more but to give the
airwaves to the new artists.
