“According to website boygeniusreport, Mr Blaze was one of several music celebrities who performed live at the company-sponsored music event for Apple’s employees. In exchange for their work, each artist was promised a free notebook that will be unveiled at the Macworld expo in San Francisco.,” Snowden reports.

  1. Plainly not true Jim – TIV.. the evidence is right there before you on pages 1 and 2.

    Anyway, give it up already. I already got some serious action today with my gorgeous wife ” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”wink” style=”border:0;” />

  2. ChrissyOne,

    “For our next lesson, look for:
    Thugz Mansion (Nas Acoustic version) – Tupac, J Phoenix & Nas
    Gin And Juice – Snoop
    Anything by Busta’ Rhymes”

    Whoa, whoa, whoa!!! Slow down little missy!
    I can be open minded, but let us not go to extremes.

    By the way, which Bach?

  3. What I find funny is that everyone seems to think that rap/hip-hop is all monotone cussing about slapping my ho’. Man, people gotta expand their horizons beyond the top 40 radio crap.

    Im the crazy nut who has at least heard of – if not heard something by – nearly every musician so far mentioned here. I started to listen to hip-hop/rap in 1989 or so and do so to this day. Although I only have one Eminem song and nothing by Snoop Dogg, Jay-Z, or most of the others. I also listen to pop, rock, hard rock, heavy metal, punk, industrial, alternative, R&B;, indie, shoegazer, trance, techno, “Celtic”, easy listening, classic rock, 50s & 60s oldies, and all mixtures of the above. And, I’m sure, others that i failed to mention. (Some, of course, more than others.) I might hear a polka every now and then, had to grow up with country music, can enjoy the blues and jazz and have a special affection for classical – especially Mozart.

    The only genre of music I can safely say I hate as a general rule (more than country and the most-repetative techno crap, that is) is opera.

    And for the record, rap/hip-hop is easily more than 20 years old thanks to Grandmaster Flash, Sugar Hill and others. And it was born out of the same ethos that brought the world black gospel music, jazz, ragtime, and blues. While too many white people (ahem, where’s that mirror) are taking over hip-hop, it remains a predominantly black expression borne out of difficulty.

    It may be your opinion that it’s not music. I even know a classically trained musician who listens to nothing but classical and can’t digest the great majority of modern music. Funny thing, though, is that he knows the stuff and respects other’s liking of pop, rock, and the rest.

    It’s about respecting others – something too many people here seem to have forgotten.

    By the way, which is less “music” – hip-hop/rap or techno?

    Who wants to hear my playlist of Natalie Merchant-led 10,000 Maniacs, Pearl Jam, Aretha Franklin, Metallica, AC/DC, Lynard Skynard, Moire Brennan, Kirk Franklin, and MC Hammer?

  4. On the real topic, though. I really hope for a 10″ multi-touch, flash-driven, eMate replacement. Now that I finally bought an eMate a month ago!

    And just what is TIV, Jim? Today’s International Version? Torqued Intentional Venom? Toasted in Violation? Top Imitation Vanilla? Too Interesting to View?

    I think Ampar’s comments regarding polka music had something to do with 4 bottles of merlot, 1 late night with Bret Farve, and the actual St. Pauli girl one late night in Madison Wi.

    By no means should we hold it against him or infer that that he doesn’t like Wisconsonians. He actually loves polka music, it’s just all that cheese that he get’s so worked up about.

    (Warning – severe sarcasm alert for all of the funny bone challenged among us.)

  6. Lol.. Too Interesting to View sounds great… but it’s “the independent voter”

    born out of the last presidential elections and my feelings that both parties have both good and bad, and both are corrupt in their current formats.

  7. Jim – TIV,

    Yeah, some people get a little cranky when they become cheese bound. Personally, I eat the stuff by the wheel. While I’m wearing my Cheese Head hat and watching the Packers. None of that wine stuff though. Strictly brewski.

    “By the way, which Bach?”

    I’m fond of the recordings on “Bach – The Greatest Hits”, especially the version of Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring on french horns. It’s gorgeous. And of course the Brandenburgs (No. 2 and the faster part of No. 3). Overture No. 2 in B Minor: Menuet & Badinerie (especially the second half, I like mountain biking to that) St. Matthew Passion Finale is wonderful.

  9. @ Whiter than Wonder®

    The world needs more people like you.

    I was just listening to Bach – Canon and Gigue for 3 Violins and Basso Continuo in D Major

    And the very next song that came on was Mombius Hibachi by Melvins.

    What a beautiful world we live in. =)
