Hello Brook-Lem




Don't get it?


(Dummy)


Lol




Its a combination of the two places that make up most of my daily existence, Brooklyn and Harlem. I've had this argument as many times as Kanye has mood swings (12,987 to be exact).


What argument you ask?


Which place is better, who has better music, who has better fashion, etc etc etc.


At one point, it got to the point where we argued about who has more MTA Subway Terminals. I try to refrain from using shorthand on this blog but...OMG...WTF...SMFH.




So, now that I finally have an outlet to talk on, I'll take this opportunity to put the ridiculous debate to rest, because frankly, there is none.




First of all, I understand you failing US History, but c'mon, you gotta know that Harlem is NOT a borough.




Let me repeat this again...Manhattan is a borough, Brooklyn is a borough, Harlem is a COMMUNITY.


Still don't get it?


(smh)


Anyway, there are a few things that could help us answer the question. Let's start with my favorite topic, music.


The greatest rapper alive (Sorry Weezy), no doubt, is Jay-Z. We all know where he's from. The only rapper from Harlem that comes even close to Jigga's prowess is (or rather, was) Puff Daddy, I mean P.Diddy, I mean Diddy, whatever the eff they call him these days. We all know what he is now, a boy band making, singing, reality show host. He gets two points for swag though.


Okay, congratulations on Cam'ron, (ask him if we could at least get a phone call or sumthin? Let a homie know how his vacation is going), and Juelz, definitely one of the hardest in the game, even gets a nomination from me for verse of the year (You Ain't Got Nuthin'--Weezy-Carter III), and Jim Jones, who actually has slowly but surely made his way into my Fave Five Rappers, and the shortlist of albums to watch for in 2009. But nothing lights up the radio frequencis like new bangers from the G.O.A.T, or Fabolous, give me 10 in the game harder than Talib Kweli? Brooklyn, the borough where its not all about money, cars, clothes; but rather, lifestyle and swagger, which trump the first three easily.


Best weed, coke, and smuts?=Harlem (owwieee)

Stupid suckaz...where does that get you?


Here's what I'll give Harlem though, some of the best places to shop. Even I'll admit I've gotten out of my bed to go to 125th and 8th to get my kicks, or Madison Ave. to pick sumthin' up for the wifey<

Sure, I go to school in Harlem but, that's about it.

I could go on forever about Brooklyn but, I'd feel bad for you H-town heads, probably report my blog to blogspot.


Mind you, the best baller alive is about to play on Atlantic and Flatbush>>Bron-Bron (no homo).

And when ya'll wanna get ya dagger dagger on?

Who plays Mavado and RDX on 135th?


Nope, everyone goes to Church, or the Sky's the LImit, or (Alicea's House). lol


Don't hate.

Peace suckaz.
