Facts OH KNO U DIDN’T mixtaEP
using Jay-Z instrumentals
The Knoitalls Present: Kiss The Ring
Production from Brisk Oner, Domingo, Scarecrow, DJ Handsome Hands, P Nyce, Mixter Mike and Definit. This final product doesn’t neccesarily represent the final album we had in mind,but we made do. We lost numerous beats, and songs and just never had to replaceme them. This happened on serveral occasions that resulted in way to may set backs. We had decided to not even put it out at all, but then figured we should offer a free download if nothing else.
US > THEM coming up ….

I dug up some goodies from the photo vault. Oh the memories.
I use to love video games. I had the record High Score on and Donkey Kong at Aladdin’s Castle in Orem for at least 3 years. They use to stack up milk crates just so I could play. This is me getting busy on the Atari 2600…probably bodying Pitfall or Krull. I was an avid gamer up until 5 or so years ago. I just don’t have the time anymore. I might have posted this before, but I placed in the top 5 for a National Nintendo Power Tournament. It was kinda like that tourny in the movie The Wizard. I won a Game Boy…I had that baby and 20 games a cold year before it hit store shelves…and my ugly mug appeared in Nintendo Power Magazine. I miss the old video games…sure Maddenn’s fun, but there’s something to be said about the simplicity of a game like Burger Time, or Space Ace. What’s my favorite psuedo current game? Ratchet and Clank.
Say hi to my mom…whats crazy is I took the following photos! If I wanted to make excuses for my life I would start here, but I don’t believe that your childhood has any bearing on who you are as an adult. Sure it might make your road a little tougher, longer and litered with dirty coke mirrors but all in all life is what we make it. I hate when I hear sob stories about how so and so had it tough as a kid…we all have it tough as kids…rich, poor, whatever, it’s never easy. Even though my mom was a colossal failure as a parent I still love her for bringing me into the world and giving me the opportunity to forge my own path…for that I’ll forever be grateful. And she didn’t cut and run like my dad so she gets points for that.
Good old Party at our place. I used to hustle my moms drunk friends out of so much dough. Later on in life I earned a good living selling them ‘party favors’…some of which I lifted straight from their purses or moms medicine cabinet. I was a shrewd entrepreneur.
bump it
This s why I think Streetwear can be so weird. Stussy is now considered cool, well, I guess it is by some people it might be…and it use to be sold at K-Mart.
Gleaming the cube baby….just Gleaming The Cube. Get your concave up!
Not sure who this is…I think it’s my uncle,but this shot is really really dope.

2009 was a good year for some things, and not so good a year for others. I guess we can wait for whatever that rappers name is that does the yearly wrap ups to discuss hip hop gossip. Yawn. Anyway, per usual I’m going to do my best to list my favorite things in the following categories, Hip Hop, Movies, Television and various other events that made 2009 worth living. It wasn’t the best year for movies, but it wasn’t terrible either. Maybe I was spoiled with the year of No Country and There Will Be Blood, but then again, it was nice to have a summer movie season not chalk full of sequels, or three-quels. Hollywood still seems to be stuck in a creative rut…remaking everything from Phelam 1,2,3, to Friday the 13th. I don’t get it. There’s so many original stories to tell why waste time and money on remakes? The only films that should be remade or those that could benefit from new technology…for example, I think it’s smart to remake Clash of the Titans because you can actually give that movie the face lift it needs. But honestly, what are you going to do with a Karate Kid remake? Besides not have a kid as awesome as Ralph Machio attempt to do the crane kick. Stupid I tell ya. Anyway, I’m sure some will disagree or even agree with a few of my entries, and if nothing else, maybe I can point you to a new album or movie you otherwise might have passed over. That’s the beauty of opinions, sometimes it takes reading somebody elses to give you a new perspective. So with that said, I hope you enjoy.

Last week the Fresh Air Tour, or Fresh something tour made it’s way through Salt Lake City. Hip Hop shows like this are more or less a good reason to get together with all the homies…and that’s what we did. I caught maybe 2 songs during Evidence’s set, and a couple of Ali’s. I will say, Ali is hands down one of the best live performers I’ve ever seen. Evidence is okay, but he didn’t hold my attention long enough I guess. He always was my favorite in Dilated Peoples, but that flavor of Hip Hop doesn’t exactly get my blood flowing anymnore..

The Anatomy Of A Hipster.
The Eddicted people in Utah (we’ll refer to them as Chad & Ashley’s) better watch their backs because there’s another ubiquitous cultural sub-set posed to take their spot as the most dominant species. I give you, The Hipster.
