41 Facts about Mass Po

stole this idea from L.Bee, as do I steal many blog ideas.

41 FACTS ABOUT MASS PO
1. I was raised on TV
2. Most classic movies (Coming to America, Purple Rain) I've only seen once and don't remember much about
3. I have a hard time memorizing my own lyrics
4. Smells can change my emotion
5. I love local artist but I hate wack local artists
6. My fav producer was Timbaland before he went all POP on niggas
7. I was Timbaland and Magoo's only fan... lol
8. I always make WAY too many mixtape tracks
9. I spend top dollar on clothes just to make sure they fit
10. I secretly am boosted when people come to my house and ask "how are you able to afford this?"
11. I am blessed as shit
12. I have a crush on pretty much every (non-related, attractive) female I know (with some MAJOR exceptions)
13. I'm a hypocrite in relation to most of my pet peeves. The biggest one is being cut off when I'm talking.
14. I spend alot of time entertaining the chicks I should be with, and chasing the ones that suck. (TMI?)
15. I have developed an unhealthy love for "The Office"
16. I have never paid full price for a television... ever.

21. I can't count that well... lol (you're slow)
22. I hate college and everything it stands for
23. I'm not fond of conversations about music with old people.
24. I love conversations about music with people my age, if the conversation is purposeful
25. I think crying and complaining are two of the least productive things that can be done with the human body. Therefore, I have no mechanism that will allow me to listen to or help you cope in those two situations. My approach is always: "Call me when you need some help FIXING this issue. Cry to someone else." == heartless bastard.
26. Everything I learned about being a man, I learned from people my age

32. I lived in Laurel, Maryland for 17 years of my life

34. If I ask a female to come over, I don't always wanna smash. Sometimes female company is just good. A change of air. ("Mass, you're starting to become lame" -y'all)
35. I keep things as real as I can because most times, people can relate more to my quirks than my common traits.
36. I don't like girls that don't think they are attractive.
37. I'm either madd shy or MADD outgoing depending on how we are introduced.
38. I am more in-tune with my feelings than most men, and I laugh at those who think I'm lame for that... cause I usually take their girls (true story)
39. If we're on the phone and you're not talking to me, then just call me back... that blows
40. If you've ever been in my house, you are welcome back anytime. I love company.
41. I think everyone needs a Tiffany. Mine is the best because I can say ANYTHING to her, about her or around her and she'll never think any different of me. EVER. :)

*smh* Sometimes I Wonder...

I think that sometimes people don't speak their opinions for fear of being labeled a hater. I think that if you mindlessly and maliciously go at someone, or scrutinize their work, you may be a hater. But I think if you can talk about something with legitimacy, tact and support, you should be free to speak your opinion and be respected for it.

I say that because as you know, I have a hard time listening to local artists. I know that sounds so f*cking backwards and wrong, me being a local artist and all. But there is this keep fear of hearing wackness that I often can't shake. Well today I said 'EFF IT' and I clicked on this link from FTDMVO:

FTDMVONLY EXCLUSIVE...BDR (OY BOYZ)

Listen for yourself. The shit is just not good. And I can promise that I listened with an open mind and I really wanted to hear something hot and different. But I heard the same old stuff. The hook was monotonous and barely harmonic. The word "swagg" was used so many times, I felt like I was listening to a Lil Wayne karaoke song. The flow was basic and done before. There were few punchline and none were very inventive. And I made all of these conclusions after hearing the song 3 times. Is that enough times, maybe not. But how many times should you have to listen to a song to come up with a remotely viable critique?

On the post, Judah says:

Can't really understand why he wasn't on some of yall list for most anticipated DMV emcees for 09........... but then again I know why!!!!!

So do I. XO, Ra, JE, G*Two, Ice, Complete, Wale, Tabi, Mouse**... these people are bringing something new to the table. I'm not impressed with this guy. And apparently the "Oy Boys" are a big deal in the area so I may be able to lose alot of fans and damage future relationships. But, I'm not really too concerned. If you think this guy is hot, I'm not sure what we would talk about anyway. *shrugs*

I guess I'm on my Charles Hamilton sh*t right now.

Joey vs. Rans

I'm not really sure why this beef was happening. That would be like Diddy beefing with... me. Like, yeah I'm talented but we're not even in the same arena. Not even in the same game. Why would either of us, ESPECIALLY Diddy, entertain the other one's comments? It was really sad to me. I'm actually glad the Joe ended it. 'Cause Ransom was beat a long time ago, but he doesn't have anything better to do than continue. I mean, think about it. This was the most press Ran has got since... ever. So why would he want to take himself out of the limelight.

And now that Joe has conceded, Ransom will no doubt respond calling Joe a bitch and all that. But at the end of the day, Ransom will have to find something else to do. Poor guy.

this was dead on

Random Resolutions

4. I will listen to any, and all new music by unsigned artists! This one will be hard. Very hard. (no porno)
5. Investing. Stocks and bonds... that type of thing.
6. No more dress socks any shades lighter than blue. One of my coworkers fried my tan colored socks this morning.
7. I will PURCHASE a full copy of Windows instead of stealing and borrowing from other sources.
8. I will 'beat more box than Rahzel has'... lmao!
9. I am going to release a mixtape with nothing but features and no less tha three people per track... prolly call it "Featuring Mass Po"
10. I will stop being so quick to get angry. Remember, my life is rockin and rolling, I can let little sh*t blurr my vision.
11. I will buy birthday presents for my friends. I haven't purchased a birthday present since highschool.
12. More music videos! I don't care what song, how crappy the video is, or how videoy the video is.
13. More good people around me. Stop isolating myself off the humble.
14. More pictures. I HAVE a camera... i just dont be using the joint. Iono.

Quote of the Year (all years)

Sometimes I think I'm from another world
When I'm trynna tell a woman just exactly where I stand at

Creativity

I'm always looking for the most creative thing I can do. And its usually so I can impress myself. So far I have been able to spawn some of the most creative things that many people have ever seen although that are probably not likely to admit to something of that magnitude. Haters. lol. Anyway, because I strive to be as creative and "left-feild" as possible, I always have to give props to people who have managed to do something more creative than I. With all of that said, check out the link below and make sure to follow the directions.

"Just a Rapper" -- a poem by Mass Potential

"Just a Rapper" a poem by Mass Potential

When I think about how I want my life to be

Music is at the top of the list

yeah, I have a list of material things ready for that day

but, moreso, I need music

I have no genre

unfortunately, I’m forced to call it rap

“oh he’s just a rapper”

“rap” is like a curse word in the music world

there are so many horrible artists, that they have tainted the word forever

what about lupe, mos, talib, kanye… people that have somethin to say?

who KNOWS how many people will never hear their words, ideas, schemes and scams because the word “rap” is associated with it

think about how your grandparents would react, if you said “i have a new jazz album I want you to listen to”

now…

replace jazz with “rap” and watch as there smiles turn to looks of indifference and they shrug and walk away

why? why was I blessed with a talent, that no one can appreciate?

If I call my self a poet, is that ok?

Mass is a poet! not a rapper…

I like the way that sounds, but will the record label?

F*ck no. they’ll laugh and send me to the local “quad” or street corner or wherever drummers beat awkwardly and crowds snap fingers.

I guess I’m just a rapper.

but i’m the best f*ckin rapper ever.

tell your grandparents THAT.

GuardeD. -- by Lysha B.

---------------
I wanna fall in love so bad.
But what does that even mean?
I'm anxious to feel complete.
To have someone to live for
& look forward to everyday
Something beautiful
Timeless.

I want to feel sure
& not feel the need to question anymore
Like even when I'm mad at him
At least I care enough to be mad

My wall is built so high
And is so thick
I can't even feel..

All I want to do is.
to feel

a tingling.
a heartbreak.

a love.

2nd and backmost:
I was listening to my last mixtape all day today and I decided that I'm hot as shit. Not even gloating or boasting or none of that. But even when I wasn't nearly as good as I am now, I still made pretty good music. Like it was nothin. Here are two songs off of "Rough Draft Vol.1" from 2007... check em out...

The Universe

I was thinking about stuff on my walk from work to my car, which is a pretty long walk because I parked on the street and if you know anything about street parking in DC, you know you may have to park a few block away depending on where you're trying to go. Anyway, I was thinking about my beliefs and for some reasons I remembered "The Law of Attraction" and how it works in absolutes. I was thinking about that because I was hoping that there wasn't a ticket on my car when I got to it. But then I remembered that that law of attraction causes the universe to bring into existence what you say and think about. I also remembered that it works in absolutes; i.e. saying "I want a ticket on my car" and "I DONT want a ticket on my car" is the same thing, kinda like 1 = |-1| (if you remember absolute values from middle school). Anyway, I just wanted to mention that because I think the law of attraction has had a really big impact on my life. I always think positively and I am always blessed in a constant cycle. Even the bad things that I face always pale in comparison to the things I receive. So, um... you should try it.

When ever I say "the Universe," I think it makes people nervous because I didn't say GOD and Jesus (and Santa Claus... yea I'm an asshole). Now don't get me wrong I'm not an atheist or anything like that. In fact, I'm far from it. I love GOD and his song with all of my heart. I say "the Universe" as an extention of GOD. I think of the Universe as GOD's creation, NOT a replacement entity. I think thats why I'm always so confused about when people say that evolution isn't real but "creation" is. My question is "who's to say that evolution wasn't a divine occurrence?" Old people usually stop talking to me around then... lol

Sorry guys I didn't mean to bore you with religion, but it was on my heart. Eff it.

PS: I actually wrote a song called "Spiri-Chill" that I'm gonna release next week. Yeah... I do this.

When me and my folks get together, WE GO IN!

i've known JE and Complete for years man, and when we get together we become nuts and just go in on everything in site. We did three tracks for my mixtape in like 6 hours total.

Peep us go in over the Jay-Z and Big L freestyle beat (and no I'm not ignorant, I know it's the "Keep It Real" joint by Milkbone... but who ELSE knows that? hmm?)

Other People's Music

When it comes to music, I am by far not adventurous... I be wanting to just listen to peoples music, just click a ZShare link and get it poppin with a new joint. But i just can't do it. I assume that the person will be wack and I keep it moving. Which is hypocritical of an unsigned artist because a great deal of my exposure will end up being people taking a chance and listening to my music. Which I understand. But everytime I'm on Judah or Nando or whoever else's blog, i just can't seem to fucking click the zShare link. Like my hand just wont participate. Its really a weird phenomenon and I may need counceling.

Also, I am teetering back and forth between complete writers block and writing an ILL 16. I'm not sure how that is possible. I think what I mean is that I can write a 16 about nothin and make it sound hot, but when it comes to topicals, I may be running out. Although, I did just do a song about fast food, which was pretty fuckin random and it turned out pretty hot. So maybe I'm not lunchin as hard as I thought I was. Hmm... maybe I'm lunchin and in the midst of the lunchin, awesomeness breaks.

My family is prolly mad as shit that I didn't got to West Virginia for Thanksgiving. It was a reckless idea anyway, they need to be cool. Who's idea was it to drive 2 hours away KNOWING damn well i gott work tomorrow? (This is totally not music related... my bad.)

Anyway, new music coming soon, including that "Fast Food" joint i was talkin about. Also, If anyone reading this wants to pass the mic in the DMV YouTube cypher, I'll take that thang off ya hands... I'm not trippin tho.

MIA

hey everyone... i have been mad MIA and I don't even have a reason... other than the fact that I have been working on my new mixtape and trying to get my old one to as many people as possible. This blogging shit is madd hard...

Also, I HATE MYSPACE! I have never come accross something that I hated some much, as much as I hate Myspace. It seems like such a tool for random advertisements. You're either a comedian, musician or actor trying to whore yourself out to as many people as you can, OR you are regular person looking for your friends or sexy members of the opp. sex, so that you can get their facebooks or phone numbers and talk to them AWAY from myspace. I like blogspot 100 times more than Myspace and I only have 4 followers (two of which never log on) so that shows you JUST how much I hate myspace.


sorry but i felt the need to vent. Thanks

"DJ Soundwave and Mass Potential present: The Unnamed Mixtape Vol. 2 -- Still No Name" will be coming out on Valentines DAY! Get your muthaf'kin pompoms out!!!! the joint will be hot as shit... and not a long as shit like the first one... lol.

So I'm at work (merchandiser for Kraft) and I'm done working the Harris Teeter in Rockville.... on the way out there is a magazine rack, like over near the cashiers. I stopped and looked at some of the hip-hip mags on my way out and I see the above nonsense. You should've seen the look on my face...

I'm not the type to hate. So please don't take this the wrong way... but what the fuck genre is THIS guy taking over? He's barely coherent in any of his songs... I guess VIBE ran out of good ideas... they should just call me. JESUS.

Yo. I remember when I was younger and the 3LW joints had just come out. I had a mean crush on the cute one... you know that there was only one cute one, stop all the fakin. Anywho, I remember thinking, "I wonder what them cheeks look like?". Well apparently someone stole her laptop, and held it for ransom for 1,000 bux. But not before jacking semi-nekked pics off of it.... feast your eyes. I wonder why all Disney actors end up with nekked pics somewhere? Why can't they just all be cool? Relax and maybe the whole world wont be staring atcha buttcheeks! lmao! Atleast do like most girls and dont have your FACE in the damn picture. I done gotten many a nekked pic but no ones FACE is in it... c'mon genius.

I think that if we really thought about how most rap songs, or any rediculous song, were made... we'd all kill ourselves. Think about the most rediculous song you can... anyone. Got one? Ok, now say the lyrics in a regular voice at a regular conversational pace....

Hilarious. Wait, can't think of one? Here are some:

"Soldier boy up in this hoe. Watch me crank and watch me go. Watch me crank that soldier boy then superman that hoe. Now watch me yoo; crank that soldier boy..."

OR

"Ooom bop, a digga dop. Ba doo wop. Digga dop ba doo wop. A digga dop, ba doo. Yeah. Yeah."

Unlikely Collaborations

I love random collaborations. Those often end up being the best songs. Here is a perfect example:

If you woulda told me that Michael Jordan's Grandfather and 8ball did a song with Lloyd, I probably would still be in the hospital from passing out after having laughed so hard that I stopped breathing. And yet, Lloyd laced the hook, and 8Ball and MJG did their thing. Now I'm not a huge 8Ball and MJG fan, but this joint crank... the beat is crazy too!

Beyonce... chill.

Dear Beyonce,
You are hot. Your fans are not. Stop giving them reasons to think they are. They are not. You get them hyped on these songs, they post them as their ringtones, away messages and fb statuses, then they start walking around with their nose undeservedly high in the air. Then, when they try to carry me or my team like WE are the ones f'ing up, we have to put them in their place... that only places burden on OUR work loads. Just stop. Make more songs about how you love Jay and how you dangerous with the love and such. Thanx.

Asher Roth and Charles Hamilton

I think that these two dudes have the game sewed up... atleast as far as I'm concerned. Hip-hop muthafuckaz!. I have been waiting for a while to hear artists that just say what they want to say. Like literally. You can tell that they just sit down and start rapping. They don't think about what they need to get across in the song, what the hook should be... its all so effortless and it just comes to them. Every line is not a gem... no. But thats real. None of that "Lloyd Banks" punchline, punchline, punchline manufactured rap. None of that "I Gotta Make a Party Song or an Anthem To Get On" bs (like local dudes always feel the need to do ALL the time. Think about how many wack DC anthems you've heard. Not hatin, just sayin, do somethin different). They just step in the booth and spit themselves. When you listen to their music, you feel like you instantly know them. In real music, you shouldn't have to interview the artist and ask them shit like "what do you do for fun" or "when's your birthday" or no shit like that. You should be able to hear their music and know the answer to every question you have. And if you CAN'T do that, then you have someone who is acting. If all I rap about is guns and cars, then my birthday is guns and I cars in my freetime. And if that ISNT the case, then why am I lying?

I know I've been rapping alot about these two dudes lately, but I really stand behind these guys (no porno). Its funny because I had a conversation with the boy g*Two yesterday and I was like "aight son, lemme stop being these niggas lawyaers"... but thats how i feel. I feel like this time for people who just get on the mic, have fun and keep it 100% real to be heard. I feel like these guys represent me, cause thats what I do all day... who else could make a song about their iPod but me?

HOLLA!

New Mixtape? hmm

Ok, I've been playing with some themes of my new mixtape. I want to keep it going with "Unnamed Mixtape" series... but I think I wanna take a break from it for a second to do something more topical. I was thinking about a joint called "Welcome Home" where every song is a part of a house. Example track list:

1. Front Door
2. Kitchen
3. Master Bedroom
4. Bathroom
5. etc...

That sounds mad creative... we'll see...

Remember this joint? This joint jy rocks... I might to a song over the instrumental. Don't act like you aint never used to listen to this song...

I've never been a huge Kevin Craft fan. If you don't know Kevin Craft, he is a Comic and a Youtube Vlogger. I was purusing YouTube today and I came upon this video. he makes a good point that I have been making all along! White people need to be cool about black people only voting for Obama because he is black. Becuase when it all comes down to it WAAAAAAAAY more white people are voting for Obama than black people because there are WAAAAAAAY more white people than there are black people. Even in a 50/50 Obama/McCain voting split, black people would STILL make up far less half of the vote. White people (and when I say this, I'm refering to those hatin ass racist white people) be mad at other white people for Obama's success, not Black people.... and also, while youre at it, take a look at the way McCain acts, speaks, and thinks... he's not a good choice people. Seriously.

VOTING

Shouts out to my man JSmooth.

He makes a really good point on the video. What am I saying? He ALWAYS makes good point. When you get a moment, subscribe to his blog: www.illdoctrine.com He's always making really good points. I would go so far as to say that he is the smartest Hip-Hop blogger. Lately he has been making alot of posts about politics, but given that this is such a pivot and historic election, I dont think that anyone would fault him for this.

The point is, is that ALL young voters need to turn out to the polls on the 4th. (SHout out to all of those who were able to vote early!!!!... Shout out to all of those schools who are closed on Voting Day JUST so that everyone can go vote!!!) Our turn out will be pivotal! Honestly, I'm an Obama supporter, but no matter who you want to vote for, go vote and make sure that you were involved in this process. It will be the most historical process ever! Make sure you can say "I was there"...

This Shit Is Hard

Being a blogger is hard. Everyday I think that this will be a good idea... reach out to the people. Let them know that you are a regular person. Be available and they will love you even for more for you realness. But I really just dont have the time to devote to the blogging stuff. No... thats a damn lie. I just need to dedicate myself to it. I need to make sure that everything that I come across get relayed on this here blog... I also need to spiff this thing up. This is a challenge that I am ready to accept. So you will get more and more and more blog post from me.

Right now, I'm not talking to anyone because I know DAMN well that aint no one reading my blog. But I like to think that a bunch of people are. Its like practice for when people actually ARE reading my blog! lol

Also, this is something really interesting that I learned about blogging. I never knew what this meant, but I think if alot more people knew about this, ALOT more bloggers would be read, alot more people would read blogs and everyone would be happy...
WATCH THIS VIDEO



Now, go to your google reader or whatever reader you want to use, start subscribing to your favorite blogs. Now you dont have to go all over the place to read your fav blogs!!!! you can thank me later...
I'll be back soon... I dont have anything better to do... HOLLA!

Turn My Swag On...meh

I'm not like everyone else. Soulja Boy is good with me. While I think he make horrible music, I love his energy. And at the end of the day, he's a young boy makin millions. So even though this song is horrible, I think anyone that hates, is just mad that their "good music" aint makin the same impact is his...
-Mass, myspace.com/masspotentialunsigned

also, I'm boycotting the word "swag", but that is unrelated.

What?!

Aight, aight. I'm on the band wagon. I couldn't just sit idly by while people did things that I can do to. So I'm back on blogspot. But only because its convenient as a Gmail user. Otherwise, I would stil with tumblr... even though no one know what the fluck that is.

Shouts out to Tumblr.

Shouts out to G*Two cause I jacked his "shout out to..." blog-style

Anyway, lemme give you an update... The Unnamed Mixtape is comming to a DMV college campus near you. Palin sucks. McCain sucks. Obama is that dude. Biden's cool. I'm moving to a bigger spot, so ladies bring your overnight bags. I'm gettin a new job, so the bread is getting upped. I'm already working on The Unnamed Mixtape Vol. 2...

Shouts to Judah... where you at man?

When my man J.E. gets back, we are gonna prolly knock out liek 10 songs in 1 day, and it certainly can be done, cause we plays 0 games when it comes to creativity. Plus me and my man Complete gonna have the crib decked out by christas, so the from door is gonna look like the "What That Thang Smell Like" video...

Shouts out to Black Jesus.

And uh... yeah. Holla!

Monday, March 24, 2008

Good morning peeps and peoples. My last couple of days were pretty uneventful. I project that all days until April 16 will be pretty much the same. That day will be the first day of the rest of my life... the day Mass Po becomes a HOME ONWER! I got pics of my condo but they are on my camera and who knows where my usb cord is?... cause I sure don't. LMAO!

On Saturday, my brother came home from school for spring break so we all went to Dave and Buster's to play some arcade bball (Grown men don't say "best friend", they say "brother"... lol). We bet 20 bux on a game and I lost my money faithfully... but it was fun as hell so its all good.

I hope everyone had a happy Easter. Mine was great. I went to work in the morning, came home, changed clothes, and headed SMACK over to my "brother's" house for family dinner. The food was off the hook... so much so that me, my brother, his lil brother and my roomate all fell asleep like a mug in the great room. We were asleep for like 3 hours... it was rediculous... I'll be beack tomorro...

Go peace-lightning!,

Update: Black Civic

Yeah, remember the unhealthy relationship I had with "Black Mags"? I parlayed (sp?) that into a sickness. I found the instrumental on Youtube and I ghostwrote some parallel verses. Start the video and sing along. (disclaimer: don't bite 'cause you will get bit back... by a Jewish guy in a suit that I pay 100 an hour)

Scared of the sirens
No new money

First Post... hmm.

Good morning everyone! Whats the word? Maybe even... whats the sentence for those of you who talk alot! LOL. I'm at work right now, extra bored and decided "you know what?, I'ma make a blog spot!"... yeah, I'm just random like that. So here are some interesting things about the last couple of days that will get you caught up to speed...

1. I'm buying a house on the 15th, so yesterday I signed the preliminary paper for that to all go down. I pretty much signed my life away for the next 30 years, but it's beyond worth it. When them taxes come back in 09, I'm rich prior like late comedians (you don't get it... lol). The lady was getting mad while i was at the signing because I kept asking her questions. She betta get over it. Who's payin obscene amounts of money a month? Me? Thats what I thought... answer the questions CHICK! hahaha, moving on

2. I have developed an unhealthy relationship wit "Black Mags" by The Cool Kids.

The song is so effing intoxicating that I had to have watched the Youtube video atleast 200 times in the last 3 days... and I'm not even sure if I'm exaggerating or not. I pray I am. That song is so dope. I need to collab wit those dudes. We'll hook it up.

2.5. Also, this video is hot

This one too.


3. Speaking of music, how's about I get a computer so I can start recording and producing again. I'll bet most of ya'll forgot that I was a musician at all, I haven't produced a mixtape in like 6 months, whats up with that? I actually have a new mixtape that is about done, but I still to add, subtract, multiply and deny some of the content and Jazzy Jeff it up so I can get some Fresh Prints... hahahah, eff you, thats funny. Anyway...

4. umm... I don't think that there is a number 4. So here's some random questions: When is NERD's CD comming out? Why is Nikki Jean so hot? (talkin music here, not attractiveness, although she is easy on the eyes) What the hell does Nouveau Riche even sound like? Why am I scared to find out? Is Mystikal still in jail? I wonder if he's still any good? When the price for iPhone comes down, will it even be worth it to get one? Why doesn't EVERYONE ON EARTH own a Sidekick of some kind (3, ID, LX)? Is anyone else with a Sidekick receiving Viagra emails every two minutes?... LMAO, thats enough for now.

Peace... its whats for dinner.
