y stannin game was not proper earlier this week. I knew the remix video to "Everyone Nose" by N*E*R*D featuring CRS & Pusha T had premiered but I didn't bother to blog about it. What is really going on? Me pass up an opportunity to stan for Lupe and talk about some black menz I want do drop it off in my drawers... Seems nuts. Anyway, here's the video. Watch it. Look for my commentary underneath.
I know it wouldn't seem like it but Lupe Fiasco is NOT my favorite rapper.... Nas is. ;) That being said, the anticipation of his album is killing me. I'm being bombarded with leaks... Tripping over them, Last.fm is even trying to throw them at me! But, I refuse to listen until tomorrow! Everyone should hit Best Buy, iTunes, Amazon, Tar-Jay, F.Y.E., Record & Tape Traders, Circuit City, Tower Records (does that still exist???), Virgin Megastore, whatever and wherever because it's Nas and it will be amazing. Or... If you're cheap or you hate Nas, download it and listen and enjoy or continue your hate. All I know is I can't wait for tomorrow!!!
For all of you who read/will read my post called "Dear Black Man" I wanted to clear something up. I do not hate black men... And that's the last time I'm saying that. I hate the relationships I've had with black specific black men... So yes, I did decide I won't pursue black men anymore. Pursue... Meaning, I won't initiate. Are we clear? How does a self-professed Lupe fanatic hate black men? This is my personal ad: I'm looking for... Well, not looking for but hopes that a Lupe Fiasco type (or how I presume Lupe Fiasco is) will come my way. DMXs, Ja Rules, Lil Waynes, Jay-Zs, Kanyes, Soulja Boys, and Eminems need not apply! (Nasirs and Black Thoughts are also acceptable.) If you are a Lupe or you know a Lupe, please send information and photos to TheNewLisaTurtle@gmail.com; it would be much appreciated!!! LoL.
I'm about to bring you some news you probably don't care about but I'm going to tell you anyway.
So my big sis Shay calls around 1:57pm EST to alert me that the jam of the week on MTV Jams is none other than my husband (who recently reached over 1,000 plays on my last.fm) Lupe Fiasco with his OVER two-month old video for "Paris, Tokyo."
I literally RAN to the TV to see my man in hi-definition... And let me tell you, he looks delicious. So I'll be the Lupe stan I am and post the video AGAIN (Yes, when it first came out I posted it) and watch it as much as possible on MTV Jams (Love, Love).
Actually, hip hop has not saved my life but I do like hip-hop. If you don't know, I have a thing for Wasalu Muhammad Jaco b.k.a. Lupe Fiasco. I'd like to have short little bad eyesight having babies with him. *Deep Sigh* Anyway, today his bootleg (not too bootleg) video for the non-single "Hip Hop Saved My Life" (featuring Nikki Jean of Nouveau Riche) dropped. It's definitely one of my least favorite songs on The Cool but I won't talk too bad about it. I'll highlight the good because I do love my Lupe. So, the good:
"Stack that cheese." (If you don't know, listen and you will see.)

To be clear, I love Drake. I’ve loved Drake for some time now. I even loved
that fool with the baby fro on Degrassi – Wheelchair Jimmy Before the
wheelchai...
I go by my real name now but you may have known me as J'amour Amethyst Stefani Faux or The New Lisa Turtle. I'm still a suburban gangster. I still would like to start a brand of condoms called "Optimus Prime." I hope you enjoy reading my strudel. :)
