so today was interesting...i went to the mall to...well to kill time...that is what you do in abilene...upon going to the mall i met some chicks that my homie knew...so we got to talking to them...its dope to hear a woman's point of view on issues...i started to tell them about where im from compared to TX...from there...the convo soured...i was talking to one female who is 18 (from texas but has lived all over) and another one who was 35 with two kids...the one from Texas understood where i was coming from...how i feel held down by my surroundings...and how even tho i had money and everybody home is proud of me im very unhappy in my situation...there is no night life...people here are very fake...ENTER THE 35 year old who just couldn't get over herself...she begin to say how i reminded her of some band she saw on TV (which later we all identified as N*E*R*D) and how it was horrible...she said she hated the way i dressed...(she hated the fact i didn't want to match)....the 18 year old agreed...both of them saying that they wouldn't go any where with me JUST based off the way i dressed...beyond that they really knew nothing else about me...they later found out that i did music...which help them understand a lil more...(but they still said it wouldn't work)...so i was like...maybe i should...wear clothes that matched...make dance music and settle for a white girl (which is what most cats do in abilene) and they looked at my me like "BY GOLLY I THINK HE'S GOT IT"...before they replied "yes, exactly"...my mind shut down and said FUCK THAT...im sorry...i have to do me...i have to salvage what little happiness i can in this hell hole...so i will continue to make the music i like...continue to dress weird...continue to be champloo...regardless of how people feel...cuz honestly i like the way i am...i can only be champloo...and to believe i actually second guess myself for a moment...to go back to the music thing...people have been hitting me up for cudi beats...and while im a cudi fan...i don't want to be homie...i want to be champloo...and even tho when i turn on the TV i don't hear my kind of beats...or even what i rhyme about that is a good thing right??? Cuz when Young Jeezy and the "snap" music was the hottest thing out i bet cudi was sitting in Brooklynn thinking the same thing...
COT DAMN Champloo! You're finally understanding...don't let these people get to you...
cuz im pretty sure the cats i look up too...never let the chatter of a few wack rappers and some even wacker females...stop them...

Why Watch???
so im watching the BET awards...and people are hitting me up...cuz i bash BET like im Huey from the boondocks (cmon now...some of these shows??? Toya and Tiny??? Nefe and Frankie??? its so stupid...one orginal program would be wonderful)...but at the end of the day these award shows are inspiration for me to go harder...for me to strive for better...cuz even tho i bash BET to perform on the channel would be a dream come true...Soulja Boy just got off stage and dapped up Kanye West...*pause*...and one day i'll do the same...but the question arises...do i sell my soul for that chance or stay true to my art? Stay true is the word...one day i'll make it there...it might not be today or tomorrow but within 7 years...i will be well on my way...my bday is right around the corner...but its no san an...im going to stay in stupid abilene and get tatted...im actually pretty hype for this tat tho...its gon mean alot to me...i will def put pics up....along with no san an tho i can get my interface so its a blessing...right?

Real.
If you don't know Michael Jackson passed today. Its crazy because i remember when James Brown passed and i didn't really care. I had just got into production and really didn't understand why he was so important. I do now...but me and my camp went to Taco Bell for a RIP MJ dinner and informed the women behind the counter. One was literally crushed but the other said and i quote "F*** dat N****, he won't nobody" *pause* i couldnt be mad...she was only 16 and lives in Abliene, TX. They don't even have an oldies station. None the less Michael Jackson is to my Hip Hop generation what James Brown was to the early days of Hip Hop. No artist out now can say they were not influenced by his musical legacy. May he truly rest in peace.

you won't be disappointed...but yo...when did i become such a driven person??? I mean its cool as far as music goes but at the same time it sucks for the people i talk to...i feel like im preachin to them about doing something with their lives...i don't mean to but im trying to help...i think from now on if your not doing shit...im just gon let you not do shit...it makes no sense to get all mad cuz you don't want to do anything...i mean if being a bum or being afraid to leave the crib makes you happy then by all means don't let me stop you...im just gon focus on myself for the time being...i been going crazy on these beats as of late...its coo tho...my work as of late has been so dope...its that raw sound i've been wanting for so long...im at least 10 beats in...and i've only had my equipment for about a week or so...but still...feels good...im not slowing up either...im going to order my interface on the 1st when i get paid...once i start recording...i know for sure the mixtape will be recorded by august for sure...in the mean time ms. proper is gearing up to drop her mixtape on July 2nd...my bday of course...imma get zooted and listen to it...i don't know if my big bro Dee will be cool with me getting utterly slammered at his crib on my bday...haha im joking homie...
so the i/o gang is still in its baby stages...but i've been asking God to send me the right team...so after waiting and losing cats...i finally found somebody...only thing is...homie is 16...but his grind is crazy...he's a producer who wants to manage and promote...as well as scout more artists....wowzers word to Kwalifed MC...we shall see where this ends up...

-im bout to cop some shoes next month...any suggestions?-
now as i stated before im getting my equipment together and the last piece i need? An interface...now i don't ask my family for anything...even coming up i never asked them for anything...unless it was something i couldn't do without...so when i did i could use as that to my advantage and be like "i don't ask yall for anything tho"...well i want that interface for my bday...but of course they say "you grown you can buy it"...but then turn around and hit me up for money all the time...c'mon now...there is a problem here...and most times i give them a lil something...my uncle bought my turntable...he sees the dream at hand but the rest of my family don't...they are so proud im in the military...but honestly i hate it...i'd give it all away to be happy and do music all day...i see my homies...no jobs...do music all the time...and get bitched at by they peoples...but they don't get it...at the end of the day people if it makes you happy do it...don't let anybody tell you otherwise...nobody..but i can't wait for my time to be up so i can do other things with my life...
yall heard that kid Chris Breezy got 180 days community service and 5 years probation for beating up Rhianna??? thas whas good...now we can move past this...not saying im taking up for homie...my cousin just went to court for beating his ex girl...and for that reason i had to stop talking to him...i can't condone carrying on what we went thru when we were little homie...my other homie was about to walk away from his own child...really??? it was nights where we cried coming up because our fathers weren't around and we vowed that we'd never do it...and he's about to do it again..start another generation without fathers??? i can't be associated with that...that's too fake to me...our mothers raised us to be men...well i know my mother and the rest of my friends and family raised me to be...it takes a village to raise a child people...real talk...the true meaning of champloo

Keeping true to the SB moniker Nike ditches their new trend of making smaller tongues and laces and keeps them fat. The denim used on the new shoe is much smoother than the older one and gives it a much cleaner look as not as many ridges are shown. Pick them up now at REVIVE.

this is my favorite promo thuss far...im going back in the mixtape Sunday...tomorrow i got meetings out the ass for this whole ILL Ongaku Music Group im starting up...but since i just got back from VA im mad tired...i've been trying to catch up on sleep but it hasn't been working...so i've been just listening to records...finding breaks...until my charger gets here next week...so im hoping i will go in on some beats by next weekend...even tho my left studio monitor is blown already...*smh*...it was free so i guess i get what i pay for rii??? hopefully i get time to skate tomorrow before all the meetings start going on...i go get my new phone tomorrow as well...should be dope...

Dear Ms. Dawson (Purple Rain Mix)
Dear Ms. Dawson,
Im still learning...im still young...but i must say...im growing up...and even tho i tried fighting it for years...its kinda dope...to see how far i've come...i just hooked my studio up today and it made me say "maybe that kid champloo isn't such a bad guy after all"...granted...some pics i posted on facebook might warrant me an african ass whoopin the likes that i couldn't imagine...but meh...she'll get over it...i want to thank you for blessing me with positive women in my life...to help me along this journey...one question tho ms. dawson....
Why is my culture so divided? Everybody is either on the dance craze OR talking about how hip hop is dead...me and ms proper got in a heated debate over this today...i personally feel that your old beau Jay-Z should step away from the spotlight...not even from an artist point of view...but from a fan's point of view...he's tainting the Jay-Z brand right now...i want to remember him in his Black Album classic days not his "Kanye is my little brother but im dressing like him and even biting his lyrics in my rhymes" days...Tiff (a so proper artist) went on to bash Soulja Boy...now...im not a big soulja boy fan BUT...lil homie does his thing...his music is dope if you take it for what it is...party/silly music...na'mean? They act as if just because nas common and Jay-Z didn't have verses on it and Pete Rock J.Dilla and Premo didn't do the beat that hip hop is dead...when in fact its evolving...honestly im one of the few artist who have found a middle ground in the music...mostly because im a producer...and to be honest...producers are the future...we mold the sounds for the artists and choose what the next musical landscape will be...anyway...what ms prop fails to realize that the next generation won't even know who big tupac or Jay are...and even tho some will bash them...you can't really...thas like my uncle bashing me for not knowing Rakim lyrics bar for bar...or my grand dad getting on him for not bumping Frankie Beverly and Maze (my granddaddy can't get me with that...im a old school music lover)...so ms. dawson...as we grow...so must our love for the music...don't you agree...
Love You,

My Name Champloo
The Nike Sharkley 1 model was a big hit upon its initial introduction into the shoe game in 2008, and although we’ve seen several other hybrids from Nike’s arsenal since then, they are still growing in popularity as new colorways are constantly being released.
Here we feature a new colorway which sports a predominantly black design, with patent leather at the base of the upper, a double strap for added support, and mesh for breathability. The upper sits atop a white midsole and blue outsole, with blue inner lining to match. Although they resemble the Air Jordan 11 (XI) with the use of patent leather at the base of the upper, the model is actual a fusion of Dennis Rodman’s “Air Shake Ndestrukt” and the Charles Barkley “CB 94″. Look for them now at Footaction locations.

im back people...VA was dope and i needed the break...now im back in the real world...time to get my mind together and get ready to do everything i need to do...get my money right...get this ILL Ongaku music group together...do what champloo has needed to do for damn near a year now...i saw my cousin today right before i left...and asked her what do women want...
okay before i go on let me catch yall up...due to very poor decsions on my end...ms. day and nite has decided to cut ties with me...i was reckless with a few things...so its my fault...(not to mention my ex finally caught up with me and was trying to end my life for that whole day and nite thing...yeesh...reckless living will catch up to you ladies and gentlemen)
ON TO THE STORY...she replied it depends on what im looking for...she schooled me and told me exactly what i needed to hear...i haven't respected females...at all...i've been walking around acting like an asshole to them because honestly that's what i thought women wanted...but i'll never find more than these mindless champloo zoids or hoes by doin that...and thas not what i want...so i need to re vamp...respect females in my life and start putting together the pieces...tell them how i feel...and let them know the deal from jump...just be the honest young man that my mother raised me to be...my last relationship had ill effects on me as a man...i was dealing with somebody who wanted to tear me down...and succeeded...in doing such i lost myself...now im taking the anger i feel in my heart out on other females who do nothing but try to help...for that im sorry...im only 20...im still learning and evolving as both a man and an artist...so here i stand...a young man...learning from the mistakes he's made...will you forgive? or forget?

Via:hypebeast
PEEP! *drools*
I FINALLY GOT UP WITH SAMPLES YESTERDAY!!! Took long enough right?
we just chilled around went to see Terminator with the fam...had so much fun...did i mention she snuck out from the crib to see me...had me runnin across the world for McDonalds...sheesh...had a great time tho...soooo my mother asked me a question yesterday..."whas good with all these females?"and i replied...nothing...now dealing with the matters of the heart...its two females im really diggin...but one doesn't really like me like that (and if she does her FRONT IS AMAZING)...the other is so far away that it doesnt matter....*sigh*...so what's the point of coming here...acting on feelings that in return will make the heart hurt more??? Therefore i let it rock on my solo dolo tip...i leave for TX in two days and im hype to go back and start back in on some beats rhymes and mixtapes...i can't wait....i got so many business ventures on deck right now...i can't really speak because i need to speak to others and let them know what's going on...big changes are on deck for me...
ILL Ongaku anyone???
now i got up with concise last night...*pause*....THIIIISSSS cat is the orginator of the dummy mission...I MEAN DAMN...he called me like "yo i got two bad jaints at the crib for us"....*PAUSE*...they came thru flying in a mini van and waved us down to follow...now i was like ah shit we fin to get robbed...but we got there and this fool had bags of weed and Jello shots...then it hit me...they gon smoke this weed get drunk and go fuck some other niggas....low and behold that happened...the chick i was supposed to talk to was in a group home...AND KNEW HER DRUGS A BIT TOO WELL...then we went to another chick crib who was hittin on me but reminded me of King Kong mixed with Donkey Kong....she was sittin there movin tables and shit with one arm....i called ms. day and nite talking loud....like "I MISS YOU...YOU ARE A GIRL THAT I AM INTERESTED IN!" didn't work...this chick was determined...but luckily concise sobered up before i got too sleepy cuz she was watchin over me like a hawk...you want something to drink? eat?...i swear i think she whispered something about her ass a twinkie cherry kool-aid and me licking...*grode-iss*...i made it home safe....thank the Lord...my life is an adventure...
