“Liberation” ~ Outkast feat. Cee-Lo, Erykah Badu & Big Rube

Some people have asked me “why revisit the past when your future is so bright?” My answer is simply this….sometimes knowing where you come from can provide a clearer path to where you’re going.

Happy Flashback Friday! buckle your seatbelts. It’s about to be on…

Atlanta Flashback ~ “85″ ~ Youngbloodz feat. Big Boi & Jim Crow

Click Here if you can’t see the video

Check out one of my many ‘A’ town favs, “85″ from Youngbloodz which features my boo Twan…I mean Big Boi and Jim Crow. [SIDEBAR: For those of you who just hit Hartsfield/Jackson International, Jim Crow consisted of Polow Da Don, Cutty Cartel and Mr. Mo.] Some people’s standard introduction to the “A” is I285 where they get caught up driving in a never ending loop…but I’m sure I85 is a close second, leading you from the far north straight to the ‘dirty’ south.

Happy Flashback Friday! Y’all ready for that weekly Atlanta history lesson? It’s coming…hold on!

Happy Flashback Friday people! DJ Nabs toured the world for years with Kris Kross and has several old school videos over on his YouTube channel. Check out Kris Kross, Jermaine Dupri and DJ Nabs appearing on the Arsenio Hall Show…Chris “Mac Daddy” Kelly still had all his hair and Jermaine did too.

Also here’s the link to the actual interview where someone’s BEEPER when off onstage during the show and Arsenio calls em out. Hell naw! What year was this? Dayum I feel old.

Tiny from Xscape BlackBalled…

Quick Question: Who knew Tameka “Tiny” Cottle was such a great actress?!? Hell who even knew she was in a move? Check out this old footage of T.I.’s fiance in some straight to video type flick entitled “Black Balled” where she plays some dude’s baby mama….a real stretch for her. womp womp.

Fast Forward to the 3:08 mark:

That’s old school actor Stoney ‘Jheri Curl’ Jackson starring as the embattled black man (you might also remember him from Michael Jackson’s Beat It video). Is it me or does that other chick look amazingly like Atlanta Housewife Lisa Wu-Hartwell? Anywhoo…I have no idea where this movie came from so don’t even ask but I really don’t think you missed any Oscar worthy performances.

Thanks to NeNe from Tiny’s Fan Site for bringing Tiny’s acting talents to my attention.
