American Gangster Movie Review

Yes, indeed, you read it correctly.
It says REVIEW, as opposed to PREVIEW.

A friend of a friend has a cousin who was at the barbershop, and the barber had a cousin who has a friend that claims to have come across an ADVANCED CLEAR COPY of the flick on DVD, so here is what the feedback was.

If you are expecting some form of a monumental groundbreaking tale of American Criminology, you’ll have to wait a bit longer until someone else writes the script.

If you are looking for something that may entertain you and make for a good evening out, and give you the ability to convey that you are “Up On Thangs” as far as the movies go, be sure to check out American Gangster.

The movie , set in the 1970’s era, is based

on a True Story, regarding a Black Crime Figure named Frank Lucas , and how a White Crime Fighter finally brought him to justice at the end.
Go figure!!

The criminal character was played by Denzel Washington, and the crime fighter played by Russell Crowe.
Each have their own “INNER DEMONS” that are being worked out during the movie and, the two actually wind up making a connection as individuals who receive some form of redemption at the end of the story by forming an alliance, to take down some of the crooked cops involved in the drug trade.

A few Hip Hop notables in the movie include Common, T.I. , RZA , and Fab Five Freddy.
The part of Nicky Barnes, another black crime figure during that era was played by
Cuba Gording Jr.

The storyline basically reflects how Frank Lucas was able to rise to levels of power not ordinarily seen or expected of from black male crime figures, so that it actually worked to his advantage through the concepts of underestimating an adversaries power. He was able to achieve this status by establishing global business connections, ,and interestingly enough, the connections in the story were in the country of Thailand, where he was shown to have traveled to personally throughout his crime career.

Also of course had the Super Fine Gangster Paradise Wife, who was superbly exotic hailing from Puerto Rico, who he (Frank Lucas) introduced himself to at one his nightclubs.

That should be enough to go on for now.
Scheduled release date is November 2, so
Till Then…

The Ghost Of Jimi Hendirx

From United Press International

October 14, 2007 12:27 PM EDT
LOS ANGELES, Oct 14, 2007 (UPI via COMTEX) — New projects coinciding with the 40th anniversary of the “Summer of Love” provide deeper insights into American guitar icon Jimi Hendrix.

Janie Hendrix, the late rocker’s half-sister and chief executive officer of Experience Hendrix, which fosters the star’s legacy, is launching “Jimi Hendrix: An Illustrated Experience” to highlight the man behind the myth.

The archival exploration into the life of Jimi Hendrix features some of his personal diary entries, original drawings, handwritten lyrics and previously unreleased photos, as well as 70 minutes of rare tracks

and interviews, reports the Los Angeles Times.

Jimi Hendrix, who died Sept. 18, 1970, at 27, obtained mythical status as a guitar hero during his brief career at the apex of the hippie counter-culture.

A documentary detailing Hendrix’s legendary performance at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival is scheduled for release Tuesday.

Janie Hendrix told the Times that further works are scheduled for 2008 documenting a Hendrix concert at England’s Royal Albert Hall in February 1969.

“This is him as he was, with his guard down and on the road,” Jaine Hendrix said.

T.I. In Some FEDERAL Shit!!

In The News.
Rapper/Actor/Mogul Cliff Harris, AKA T.I. was arrested on Saturday afternoon in Atlanta, after an alleged plot to purchase a substantial amount of machine guns as well as silencers.

Reports state that a bodyguard, acting as a cooperating witness arranged the transaction to purchase weapons from an undercover A.T.F. agent. A subsequent raid of the rappers residence was said to have turned up a stash of illegal weapons, resulting in his being brought up on charges including illegal possession of firearms by a convicted felon.

PimpHop Perspective.
There are often certain news items that I Wish NOT to present, yet in the fairness of integral journalism, the good has to go with the bad.
I guess what they say in the popular manuscript called The Secret is TRUE, which is that
Thoughts Become Things!!!
Interesting timing, as T.I. is set to appear in the upcoming movie entitled
American Gangster staring Denzel Washington and Russell Crow , set to be released on November 2, 2007.
View The Trailer Below.

Im sure this news will actually help generate increased ticket sales, to help pay everyone else EXCEPT for T.I.

Without viewing the film, I can predict that the story plot will ultimately end with a Powerful African American Male, being “BROUGHT TO JUSTICE” in the end.
What do YOU think?
Guess its what happens when you let SOMEONE ELSE write your script for you.
Rappers have the greatest ability to write their own scripts , which a majority of the youth are imitating on a GLOBAL SCALE, yet many of them are writing themselves in to LOOSE at the end.
All in the name of Street Credibility, like Kanye West States in his song All Falls Down,
White Man Gets Paid Off Of ALL OF THAT!!!

In closing, we ALL are going to make some mistakes, and it appears that a RICH MANS mistakes tend to be much more costly.
Just like the Jay Z and Too Short song collaboration, entitled
SHIT WAS ALL GOOD JUST A WEEK AGO,
let it be a note for all to watch what you say and wish for, as you just might get it.
All of the details have not surfaced as of yet, and the defense team has not been assembled, so lets have everyone focus on T.I. walking away from this whole ordeal with the look of this above post image as his facial expression.

Britney Spears Hands Over Kids To K Fed

Yes, already sure you have heard.In the news, after all the subpenoas sent to assistants and bodyguards regarding Britneys Behavior, a judge recently rules to grant temporary custody of the kids to their father and recently divorces spouse Kevin Federline. from what it looks like, she will proably recieve custody back, as they are in court as of today to work it all out.
In actuality, they are both still officially sharing custody, so I believe that this is simply a temporary matter, urging to get B. Spears to step her game up.News reports say that the straw that broke the camels back rests in he fact that she was cited for driving without a valid drivers license with the kids in the vehicle.

PimpHop Perspective.
Looks Like Britney is one of the Prime Candidates  for PLAYER HATE as of late.
Why so much HATE towards Lil Britney Anyway,I Ask Myself?
What has she really ever done to anyone else in the first place, except tell squares
The TRUTH , which is that
SHE’S NOT THAT INNOCENT?
