You don't have an excuse, do you?




If you know me even just a little, you'll agree that I'm not one who is big on excuses. Here's another dude who agrees. Props to the Nike folks for once again helping us find the motivation to "Just Do It."

What I have learned (ver. 5.0)

From old school rap music, boyeee...

When I was a little bay boy my Momma gave me a brand new toy...two turntables and a mic and I learned to rock like Dolomite.


I make dough but don’t call me dough-boy!


It takes two to make everything all right; it takes two to make it out of sight…


Been hit with a few shells but I don’t walk with a limp.


Wake up, it's important that you know that no one on Earth is promised tomorrow. If you love someone you should say it often!


She likes my tone, my cologne and the way I roll…


Our freedom of speech is freedom or death; we got to fight the powers that be…


Most of my heroes don't appear on no stamps…


I live my life by the code of the funk.


I’m funky, I’m spunky and I like my oatmeal lumpy.


Give me a soft subtle mix and if ain't broke then don't try to fix it.


Now who’s the real dookie, meanin’ who’s really the sh**?


Roll with the punches is what I tell to people when things don’t go to well. When you go for the gold and you come back empty, when the ups are few and the downs are plenty…


Hypothetical, political, lyrical, miracle whip, just like butter, my rhymes are legit…


A Special thanks to Newcleus, Ice Cube, 50 Cent, MC Lyte, Snoop Dogg, Public Enemy, Coolio, Digital Underground, Rob Base, Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, Notorious B.I.G., Young MC.

on success...

To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!

- Ralph Waldo Emerson
