I have been substantially preoccupied with promoting my new record Prince With A Thousand Enemies. Sorry for the slow month in news rap. I promise things will return to regular form and schedule soon. I made the record in conjunction with a great producer and old Charleston friend, dj kurfu. The music was generally inspired […]

Like Winning
I hate it when I’m right. Picked the Mavericks to win the NBA Championship on January 3. Begrudgingly restaked the pick at the start of the playoffs. Only problem: I’ve wanted the Heat to win the whole dang time. See, I’m a complicated frontrunner. I have a very particular hierarchy of fandom that I follow […]
My bologna has a first name . . .
Man, I didn’t want to touch this with a ten foot pole. But the story just kept growing. (Too easy.) It’s embarrassing. It’s awkward. It’s not any sort of real news. But Weinergate has persisted for over a week now. For those that don’t know, Representative Anthony Weiner was exposed for ironically sharing indiscreet photos […]
THE RETURN
The ipoet is not dead. A week’s sabbatical. I’m sorry. I should have been more clear about the plans. Posting tonight.
Uninspired
My choices seem to be either the Republican 2012 presidential pool or Weinergate. Neither one is doing it for me. I owe the world some rap news. We’ll see what I can muster.
Wicked Witch
The midwest was devastated by storms this week. Joplin, Missouri in particular. 4 tornadoes turned the city into a literal landfill. The images cannot be believed. It looks impossible. This is an easy story not to pay attention to. Twisters are kind of whimsical lore. The bane of directional witches. Please look at the pictures. […]

PRESALE – Prince With A Thousand Enemies
I dropped my iphone 4 in a small “body of water” so to speak. I don’t think I could have prepared myself for the effect of losing it. I have a real problem. Apparently my entire life depended on it. I can barely function. Embarrassingly, I still had my iphone 3. (Joplin, MO is a […]
Laughing at the Prophets
The apocalypse came and went Saturday, harmlessly it appears. It’s natural and easy to make jokes. Twitter abounded with them. It doesn’t take any sort of clever wit of observation to cast Harold Camping and the Family Radio followers as either fools or charlatans or both. But, as between those who anticipate God’s plans and […]
I.O.U.s
I was on the road when I originally made this post. My laptop battery was literally within seconds of failing when I uploaded the two songs. I may or may not have been in a strip mall parking lot at about midnight pirating a certain well-known, Northwestern-based coffee bean company’s wi-fi to get]]><![CDATA[ it done. […]
