SOHH Over It!

R.I.P. Chris Benoit

June 25, 2007 dig 24 comments

I dont even watch wrestling anymore, but I had to respect WWE for dedicating a last-minute, 3-hour memorial special to this dude.  They normally represent sheer bullshit to me, but this is just a testament to the type of relationship a professional sports organization should have to their members.  The NBA and NFL need to take note, because the way they treat their players, dead or alive, to me, leave a lot to be desired….. 

 

FAYETTEVILLE, Ga. (AP) - WWE wrestler Chris Benoit, his wife and son were found dead Monday and police said they were investigating the deaths as a homicide.

 

Lt. Tommy Pope of the Fayette County Sheriff's Department said the three were found at their home about 2:30 p.m., but refused to release details.

Pope said results of autopsies on Benoit, his wife Nancy, and 7-year-old son Daniel were expected Tuesday.

Benoit, 40, was a former world heavyweight champion, Intercontinental champion and held several tag-team titles over his career.

"WWE extends its sincerest thoughts and prayers to the Benoit family's relatives and loved ones in this time of tragedy," the federation said in a statement on its Web site.

Benoit was scheduled to perform at the "Vengeance" pay-per-view event Sunday night in Houston, but was replaced at the last minute because of what announcer Jim Ross called "personal reasons."

Benoit, a Canadian native, maintained a home in metro Atlanta from the time he wrestled for the defunct World Championship Wrestling.

The WWE canceled its live "Monday Night RAW" card in Corpus Christi, Texas, and USA Network aired a three-hour tribute to Benoit in place of the scheduled wrestling telecast.

More About Race.

June 22, 2007 willyjsimmons 9 comments

Piggybacking off of KSH's post about the music industry…

I found something interesting over at huffingtonpost.com about Angelina Jolie playing a racially mixed women in her latest film "A Mighty Heart", a story about the Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl who was kidnapped and murdered in Pakistan. On film.

Have YOU seen the commercials for the movie (and the crazy wig action)?

Did you KNOW the women she's portraying is mixed?

I didn't realize the movie was the story of Daniel Pearl.  Forgot his wife was mixed.  Really hadn't thought much about it (besides the 'WTF is up wit that wig!!??' )

But apparently, 'The Blacks' are making a stink about a white broad portraying a 'sista' on film.

Read here and here.

Why not Halle, Thandie, Jeniffer Beals…( seriously, someone is quoted as asking that question)?

So I put it to ya'll…

are we, as black people, stuck on stupid about race?

 

 

Ethical question….

My gf is going on a date and since her "friend" has a boy who is coming from out of town, she asked me to accompany them. Is she obligated to inform dude I'm married prior to the date? Me, I don't care one way or the other- we're "wing people" anyway, so we're not really there as the people trying to hook up, but another one of my boys said that was foul, since he should be "warned" that I'm not on the market before he starts spending….

 

So I ask- is it wrong?

Blue Eyed Soul

Is the Current Onslaught of ‘Blue-Eyed Soul' Performers Overshadowing Black Music Culture?

Date: Thursday, June 21, 2007
By: Danielle Kwateng, Howard University News Service

Listening to "Lost Without You" makes fans of Robin Thicke want to sail away to a romantic island. The eclectic sounds of Joss Stone remind many of smoky blues clubs. And when Justin Timberlake fans hear "My Love," they're instantly infatuated with the passion in his voice.

So what do these three sultry-voiced musicians have in common? They're part of the new generation of "blue-eyed soul" artists.

"Their sound is different — like Justin Timberlake's album is more upbeat than most black R&B artists," 20-year-old Howard University student Brianna Hurt told BlackAmericaWeb.com. "I just like their sound, plus I don't really like hip-hop anymore. It all sounds the same. Yes, [Robin Thicke] sounds like Marvin Gaye, but I don't compare him to anyone. I listen to them because they're good, and there's no profanity." 

The new generation of R&B lovers seems to embrace the music of today's blue-eyed soul artists, but their sound may also largely have something to do with the production teams behind them.

"Interestingly enough, today's biggest white soul singers have had strong support from black producer/mentors," acclaimed filmmaker and author  Nelson George told BlackAmericaWeb.com.

"Joss Stone has worked with the Roots and Raphael Saadiq, Justin Timberlake has been supported by Timbaland, and Robin Thicke was originally signed by Andre Harrell," George said.

"What many people don't know is that white musicians have been singing R&B since its beginnings," he added. "Although the roots of rhythm and blues come from the African-American culture of the South, many whites enjoyed and replicated the music as well."

The term "blue-eyed soul" originated in the 1960's with the emergence of white artists who sang songs written and produced by black musicians, because blacks couldn't get radio play. Elvis Presley, for example, sang songs written by black artists when the those acts were not allowed on the radio.

Over the years, the term revolutionized itself to describe white artists who, for lack of better words, "got soul." A lot of the original blue-eyed soul artists came from a jazz, blues, or country background, musical forms that were all fundamentally created by African-Americans.

Groups like The Righteous Brothers, The Young Rascals and The Box Tops were the pioneers for more mainstream artist of the 80's and today. Many of us are familiar with artists like Hall & Oates, Teena Marie, Michael McDonald and George Michael, artists who made it commonplace to hear white singers on urban contemporary radio stations.

"There have been blue-eyed soul singers for as long as there's been soul," says George. Back in the '60s, Dusty Springfield and the Righteous Brothers were played on black radio."

Charles Young, a professor of jazz at Howard University in Washington, D.C., and former member of the Duke Ellington Orchestra, agrees, but thinks there is a slight difference in jazz.

"The level of proficiency in white [jazz] players isn't as high," Young told BlackAmericaWeb.com. "They were spurred on by the love of black musicians."


Some African-Americans worry that the culture behind historically black music is being lost behind the shadow of new white talent. But many music scholars believe its the black community itself that needs to do more to preserve the vitality and character of its music culture.

Young says he's concerned with the lack of enthusiasm young African-American students have towards their own music and the history of their culture.

"I'm saddened," Young said. "that African-American culture has become so hooked on pop culture that we don't know our history, let alone give a damn about it. I'm concerned that in another 50 years, if we're not careful, John Coltrane will be white."

George, however, doesn't see these new white artists as a threat.

"I don't see how owning the Robin Thicke's CD affects the health of black culture," George said. "Owning George Michael's "Careless Whisper" in the '80s didn't stop Michael Jackson or Luther Vandross. Whites have been inspired by — or stolen from — black music since slavery days."

"It's doubtful that any of the current stars will undermine the vitality of black culture," he added. "The only thing that can do that is black people themselves."

I have the "get over the shit already" attitude!

 

Damn!

I’m Goin Let Y’all Choose This One For Me

Chevy Ced 221 comments

I'm goin let y'all make a decision for me. This is gonna be fun.

I've been dealing with this one broad since April. She's bad as hell. Korean/Black chick. So you can imagine what she looks like.

When I first met her, she never mentioned anything bout a husband or boyfriend. Well shit, I never asked either, cause I honestly don't give a fuck.  About a month ago,  I found out she was married to this cat in the army stationed over in Iraq. I didn't leave her alone, but I quit fucking her. Just kind of talked to her on the phone every blue moon, she'd ALWAYS come through to my spot with a quater, and she'd cook for me whenever I asked her to.

Anyway, this nigga came back home two weeks ago. So I haven't talked to her or seen her since he came back. But to take a trip back in time, right before he came back, she told me bout him. She then went in this long drawn out speech bout how she wants to stay in contact with me even though he's back. I don't give a fuck. As long as she keeps cooking and bringing that quater, I could give a fuck less.

But niggaz ain't stupid. When I first started fucking with the bitch, she was tight as hell. But now, she's loose as hell. So I know this nigga know that somebody was pillaging the village walls.

Well last night, she calls me at 2:30 in the morning on some we need to talk type shit. Usually this is bad news, such as I'm pregnant or I'm in love with you. So this shit fucks up my WHOLE buzz. I tell her to come over.

So she gets there and she's crying and shit. Come to find out, her son, had done told her husband that she be going to see this man with a white car.  thumb down He should have told him bout the night he walked in on his moms sucking the man who drives the white car's dick. laughing

So basically, she came to my spot to tell me that she can't see me no more……..not while I'm in my car. thumb down

So then she goes on bout how she's gonna tell him that I'm her cousin that just moved back in town from Atlanta.

I'm coming to my sohhoverit cohorts and my fellow MAN COUNCIL to see what move I should make. Now I've been in this same situation before. I'm fucking with a broad. Her fiancee found out. She wants me to be her "cousin from Jacksonville". I agree. She has this nigga call me. I blow her whole spot. She loses her fiancee, her car he bought, and the house HE was building for THEM. But she was nothing more than a bitch I was fucking. Korea-Black is cool. Plus she can cook a mean seafood gumbo. It's clutch after a long day of galavanting, drinking, smoking, and fornicating.

The choice is yours. Whatever y'all pick, I'll do.

Good morning, folks….   I compiled this list, like I said I would, based on the opinion of several of my female chronies - not just from the blog, but elsewhere.  Of course there are combinations not listed (as there were yesterday) but the female consensus seems to be that most men will fall into one of these categories.  Please note:  "Mr Right" is not listed because, obviously, "that nigga" is something different to every woman.  My question:  Which guy are YOU?

  3. You have high hopes for where the relationship is going.

There Are 10 Types Of Women…

Chevy Ced 222 comments

I was sitting up last night….nah I take that back. I was playing 'golf' on the green last night and tried to break the type of women there are. And besides, my lil cousin just lost his virginity last night. So now he's been corrupted and he's gonna want to fuck different broads all the time. So I wrote him a 'pamplet' describing the advantages and disadvantages of these 10 different types of women.

Help me out with some more types and advantages/disadvantages of fucking with these women.
