The Air Up There Vol II: February 2006

21 Questions?

Well I was gonna post something new but I figured I'll save it for another rainy day. I'm kinda tired right now and blogging would require me to think entirely too much. Therefore, I'm going to ask all of readers of this blog to go ahead and ask me any question you feel like asking. If I don't get enough responses we will pretend this never happened.

I'll start..

Where did the name of my blog come from??

This 1994 basketball movie called the Air Up There starring Kevin Bacon aka Footloose
Its about a basketball coach and onetime college star, whose headstrong personal style has threatened his rise to head coach, spots a teenage basketball sensation on a videotape sent back from one of the college's religious missions in Africa. Hoping to advance his own career in the process, he quickly sets out to recruit the 6-foot-10 player for his lackluster team. Being that I'm of West African descent, loves basketball the name made sense.

Okay now your turn
PEACE!!

You're right! I do like it! How did I sleep on you....LOL.

The Air Up there was a good movie. I catch it on cable all the time.

By Shawn, at 7:16 AM

Zeezy - You got me LMAO @ Booty Talk 20! I never expected that answer, but I ain't mad at ya, LOL.

By Superstar Nic, at 6:10 PM

Ok, since your putting it out there.. what's your most embarrassing moment?

By Mocha, at 7:55 AM

hmmmm that's a tough one. I would have to say that one time when I shitted on myself in elementary school and had to be sent home from school early. I think I was like 7 or 8 years old and in recess and all of sudden got the bubble guts and couldn't make it to the bathroom in time.

By Zeezy4Sheezy, at 1:46 PM

What's you favorite sexual position?

Why do feet turn you on?

Would you say you were a pro at sucking toes and giving foot massages?

By MZPEACH, at 2:04 PM

GA Peach: You are a trip! But I'm a man of my word so I will answer.

1.Favorite Position: Woman on Top!!

2. I really have no idea where the feet thing came from. I just know that I have a thing for pretty feet. If they aren't nice looking I won't even go near them.

3. I would say that I'm skilled at both.

By Zeezy4Sheezy, at 7:26 AM

tell me about your first love!

have you ever dated interracially?

By A.u.n.t. Jackie, at 7:20 PM

Miss Ahmad:My first love was pretty special. I would have run through a brick wall for that young lady. I was T-Pain back then...cuz I was "sprung", so was she too but that was to be expected. I'm mean after all she was dating Zeezy. It doesn't get any better than that..

2.I have never dated interracially and what's weird about it is that I've been to schools primarily in my life that were either majority white or half/half. I've never even kissed a white girl b4 let alone date one. To be honest I'm just not attracted to white women. They don't make me excited. Black women run laps around any other race when it comes to the beauty and intelligence factor. Plus I just relate better to sistas. But, I did get some head one time in highschool and head doesn't really count, right?

By Zeezy4Sheezy, at 7:00 AM

Good answer Zeezy, but I must say that I think head counts. Some would say it counts double...it's a pretty intimate act....ask Clinton!

By A.u.n.t. Jackie, at 8:47 AM

Here are some questions...not directly related to you, but I'm sure you can help answer them (let the WAR begin)

Has Sweetlime's face always looked like that?

How often does she shave the hair off of her tongue?

When you slap her ass does it sound like a conga drum or a snare drum?

By ..Sue...Zette..., at 7:51 PM

Your blogs are off the chain Zeezy, but it truly saddens my heart that you come by and read my blogs anymore, you or sweetlime. Where is the love man. In case, you don't remember who I am, this is Monique's cousin. The one who had the b-day get together at TGIF's in Buckhead last year.

How could ya forget about me huh? *sobbing*

By Anonymous, at 6:01 PM

@ zette - first off what kinda of biatch are u that u got to post some bull shit ass questions on another niggah blog.

By theurbanista, at 7:14 PM

@ Sweetlime....hey...you said it was on and poppin...consider it pre-emptive word warfare...challenging me to a word warfare is a dangerous ass thing

By ..Sue...Zette..., at 3:43 AM

Zeezy:

Would you date a woman who was saved and wouldn't allow you to hit it?

By DJ Diva, at 11:10 AM

and Ladies...be eazy...I don't need to know all that drama...

By DJ Diva, at 11:11 AM

DJ Diva: honestly, Probably not.. I would respect her wishes but even though I'm a gentlemen,I'm very mannish so that wouldn't be a good match for me.

Stank You Very Much

I went to Best Buy today to holla at my boy Travis to see if he can let me use his discount . Cuz you know people love da hookup!! So, I was walking down the aisle and there he was. I wasnt sure if it was him because I was trying to figure out why he was at the Best Buy at Stonecrest Mall. So I walked to the end of the aisle I was on, trying to play it cool. Then turned to walk up the aisle he was on so we would be facing each other if it really was him I looked at him...he looked at me and then I spoke..

Z- Wassup folk?
3000- Nothing much, just chilling
Z- How you been man?
3000- Just hanging out.
Z- You still doing the music thing?
3000-Does it look like it?
( he laughed when he said it, so I wasnt sure what that meant)
Z- I mean I hope so dawg. I know how the rap scene is it doesnt take long before a new cat comes in and does his thang. But I'ma be honest nigga, these new dudes couldnt check a microphone for you...thats real talk!
(he laughed )
3000 I know man..they all over the place
Z-I was just listening to "Crumblin Erb" yesterday nigga!
3000- Stop playing nigga
Z- For real dude. I mean I'm in the streets constantly and I keep my ear to the street And regardless of what you think people are waiting for some new shit from you.( he cracked a smile) I mean real talk, no one has come close to you since you left. And look how long they had to do it? Nobody can do what you did nigga!
3000-Ha. Word?
Z- I mean what we gotta do? I'll get on the campaign right now nigga. I know you got some new shit right?
3000- Yeah I do. It's just gotta be right. Matter of fact the new shit is crazy. I dont think niggas is ready for it.
Z- You always come from left field but people are really fiending for it right now
3000- I hear you nigga
Z-I mean I've been on different music websites and there's always some thread talking about when is the new one dropping
3000-Yeah..I feel you though but I just haven't felt "IT" lately.. That rush you get when its time to make some music
Z- The ATL's down for you though. Hell the whole world is . Ya'll made it cool to be from the A. I remember when I bought the first CD at the old Turtles Music Store on Old Nat'l.

3000- Thanks man. ( He starts laughing out loud)I appreciate that nigga. I miss being on the stage, this industry is so full of bullshit..
Z- And it always will be D! We just gotta get past that though. Good music is good music and it always finds a way to get to the people.
( He starts laughing out loud)
3000- You crazy nigga.
Z- Nah nigga. Thats real. You crazy. I know you sittin on some shit. I heard you been out in LA recording with Raphael Saadiq and some more folks..shit

3000- It's coming man, its just gotta be right. I've always been like that nigga. When it aint right you know it but when its right its right you dont even have to question it.
Z- I feel you.
3000- I been working though. I dont want peeps to think I'm just sittin on my ass. .

D- I don't get like this for just anybody though.. Its outta respect.. I remember when you came to my college about 5 years ago man.. I sat out in the hot ass Florida sun so me and my roomate could have a front row seat to watch you and Big Boi perform.
3000- Damn! I think I remember that show..
(he's laughing way louder than before now)
Then I look to my left and see my homeboy travis in beige khakis and a Best Buy shirt who can clearly see that I'm talking to 3000 but still manages to interrupt.
BEST BUY -Wassup man!
Zeez- Nothin much just chillin, just came up here looking for you.
BEST BUY - What you been up to?, I ain't seen you in a minute
Z-Yeah man, I just been working like a Hebrew Slave..
BEST BUY - I feel you man

Then he walks off and I turn to Andre 3000 to finish the convo and before I can start where I left off I hear my homeboy Travis interrupt me again...
BEST BUY - Ummm Zeez? One more question.
Z- What man?!?!?!
BEST BUY - Is it a particular reason that your standing in the Rap aisle talking to the cd's?

By Unknown, at 2:47 PM

Wow, now that is so exciting. I can't imagine going to the store and bumping into some like that! Wow.

Damn, I wish I knew someone that worked at Best Buy. That is one of my favorite stores if not the favorite.

By Superstar Nic, at 6:56 PM

Ohh man! I was just listening to "Spread" as I came to your page. That boy right there is something special with his pint sized self and his banging press 'n curl.....
I hope he comes back to Hollywood, so maybe we could bump into each other somewhere:-)

By A.u.n.t. Jackie, at 11:07 PM

By theurbanista, at 2:25 PM

Sweetlime: I can't believe you are the only one who got this entire post..

You got jokes now!! Ok I'll show some real creativity.

To Everyone else: We'll work on colors and numbers tomorrow. Or some type of reading comprehension program...lol

Trends That Need To Stop Immediately

Today In Black History
Presented By Huey and Riley

I've been rolling in laughter all day with the newly released video of Jim Jones getting his ass whupped by Jr. Mafia and Camron running away like a little girl.. You know what they say Karma is a bitch.. There's something about watching senseless violence especially beatdowns from cats that talk hella trash that tickle my ribs. Check it out for your self.

On To the Real Stuff
It's 2006 now and we are 50% done with the first 10 years of the new millenium. But, there is still stuff going on in the world that needs to stop (Imagine Bernie Mac speaking to you right now) IMMEDIATELY!! These are essentially a list of trends I would love to end and go away permenantly.

1. Celebrities who think its cool to wear a "Grill" because Nelly said so. Also bloggers who also think that the song is cool should be karate chopped in the "thoat"(and no that isn't a typo) It just bothers me deeply that Paul Wall is making so much money off of exploiting our culture. Now I understand that Paul Wall is from Houston and its apart of his lifestyle but why is it that "Pink Toe" is always capitalizing off us and we always run along and co-sign. Its 2006 and we are still participating in a minstrel show.

2. Skinny Dudes and Fat Dudes who have penchant for taking off their shirts in public... Being that I am a swole ass dude trapped in a thin man's body, I too dream off showing off my pecs one day but when you can see a brother's heart beat through his chest cavity its definetly never a good look. Fat Dudes or Big Boned if you prefer.. Stop taking your shirts off as well.. No one wants to see Filet Mignon & Pork Rinds hanging off of your stomach either.. And cover up the man boobs too!
