You Talk
-Between 11 and 3 a.m., Spring ’08 @ Goo’s Old Apartment in Brooklyn, NY-
I was partying with J57 (a.k.a. JLog1c), his girl Michelle, Goo, Koncept, and the God Himself, Shua the God a.k.a. the IZM. Shua is a classic character; a pure genius. (If you ever get the chance of kickin it with him, please take it.
We were getting’ wild at Goo’s spot, laughin’ it up, getting’ trashy. It was a week before he was leaving for Arizona, so there was some extra party animal in us all. Shua was on a roll, spitting out hilariously hood phrases, rhymes, and scientific metaphors. A brilliant idea came over me, so I shouted in excitement, rushed clumsily to my bag. I rushed back to Shua with my field recorder and began wiring him up, recording the events of the night from his perspective. I recorded him walkin around for a hysterical 38 minutes and 40 seconds. It’s a classic tape.
-“STOP DRINKIN MY 40 DOG!
That’s cuz I was grabbin’ Shu's Old E 40 with ninja quickness as he lit a cigarette. Good times.
(More from this night can be heard on the Brown Bag All-Stars Mixtape. Get it. The album is fuego.)
