The Manor Is Up For Grabs

celbrityaaronspellingcastle

Welcome Home!
Today is another great day, and interestingly enough I was greeted with something that tends to be in limited supply as of late, which is some good news on the Fox Morning News program.

Reports have come in , stating that The Manor, the largest piece of residential
real estate in Los Angeles , is up for grabs for a measly $150 million dollars.

The property was invented in the 1990’s, by the late Aaron Spelling, said to be the most prolific writer and producer of television shows in the entire history of the medium.

He and his wife Candy are known  most recently through their  infamous family conflicts with their daughter Tori Spelling, who starred in the 90’s hit series Beverly Hills 90210, which was one of a long list of shows created and produced by her father.

In past years, after his passing in 2006, news of his daughters tremendously small inheritance  of the enormously wealthy estate was made public, and a public display of disagreement was rampart in many entertainment news outlets. Candy , the widow of Spelling, and their daughter Tori have since been said to have reconciled their differences, which according to most, was initiated through the birth of a child by Tori Spelling.

For whatever reason, at this particular time, the famed estate which sits atop of  Hombly Hills in Los Angeles is now on the market.

The way my mind works, I seem to see it as a fitting place for myself and associates to reside, and if President Obama, now resides in the

Tightest House on the east, I see know problem with me occupying the Tightest House out west.

Everything happens for a reason, and since Spelling had the house constructed as a reward for his unique ability to put words and pictures together and tell a great story, perhaps its time for a continuation of the mission, which appears to be exactly what the game is missing. Just my opinion.

A different perspective to consider.

I am the Urban Dutchess!

If you have read my last post, you will probably know that I am not too positive about the concept of reality tv. But, despite of my somewhat negative opinion about it, I will continue to use reality tv for my own exposure. Let me explain to you why.

The urban culture in the Netherlands is very big. Mainly because there are so many different cultures that live together in one little country and have to find a way to get along with each other. The way is a common interest called the
urban culture. So most of the foreign people here, and an occasional wigger, are interested in urban music, clothes, lifestyle, etc. This results in a lot of artists that are trying to break through in the urban entertainment world of Holland, but there is only room for so many of them. Holland is on a tight budget when it comes to entertainment. Having worked as a video model, I know that most of the urban music videos are low budget, which means that the models in it aren’t paid.

Now, how does a model stand out enough so that she gets paid doing the work most of the models do for free? She can, for example, make sure that she is seen a lot and, in a way, create some fame for herself, which gives her an extra appeal. This is where reality tv comes in.

How do you think people would react when they see a model having a photoshoot on live national television for the first time?

They will say that she is an URBAN DUTCHESS !

And how will they react when they see a model that is lying on a table covered in fruit, impersonating a living fruitcake, for the first time?

fruity

They will say that she is an URBAN DUTCHESS!

So how can I live a glamorous life on a tight budget? I’m the Urban Dutchess, that’s how!

P.S. Stay tuned if you want to see the second part of my photoshoot on live national television…

PIMP- The Story Of My Life..An Introspective Look At Robert Beck a.k.a. Iceberg Slim

pimp-the-story-of-my-life

If Mark Twain were a Black street pimp, he would have been Iceberg Slim
Amazon.com

Welcome back to the show and your patience during the time of my
Internet Fasting.
What I am going to touch on today is what came about during some time spent soul searching and pondering on what direction to travel in regards to this publication and brand.

I have know for some time that there would come a time where a post on this particular subject matter would become absolutely necessary, and we have arrived at this point as of March 26, 2009.

The relevance of this novel, for me at least, cannot be overstated, and due to the current popularization and perhaps exploitation of the term PIMP, this post should do what is necessary to preserve the integrity of the subject matter.

A brief history of the author can be found at the link below.
042-iceberg-slim-gr

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iceberg_Slim

The key areas of focus, which makes this post of extreme importance is that this particular author was writing about his experiences during his time spent in the streets of Chicago and life as a
Gentleman Of Leisure, and history has recently shown that someone with a similar experience was able to use his talents to achieve what many would have considered wishful thinking until the signs showed otherwise.

brock11

It also shows that this particular individual who by most popular accounts of his character type would be considered as loathsome, gives accounts his experiences with individuals , and how they reacted to the scenario of how a person of his pedigree actually possessed an above average I.Q.


With an I.Q. of 175,[1] Beck studied at Tuskegee Institute until he dropped out in 1937. Beck started to pimp at age 18 in the brutal Chicago underworld, soon becoming rich and successful in the trade

Following a familiar pattern as well, Robert Beck a.k.a. Iceberg Slim actually left “The Life” after growing tired of incarceration and other side effects of The Game, decided to SQUARE UP, and made his way to Los Angeles in an attempt to reconnect with his mother.

In 1962 he got a job selling insecticide for $70 a week. He had been a natural salesman all of his life. While making a sales pitch to a college professor, he mentioned that he had been a pimp. The professor suggested that he write an autobiography. Beck wrote the book, Pimp: The Story of My Life, in three months.

During my time spent conducting self analysis and inventory, I often wonder if what has been stated by others regarding my stance is true, which is that I have some gripe or bone to pick regarding individuals who tend to use things from black or minority culture as a source of entertainment through the use of mockery and in some cases for monetary gain. The facts are, that, these assessments  are absolutely correct, and it is simply due to the fact that my knowledge and awareness of the astronomical value of that which is made a mockery of, which actually leads to decadence of ones cultural heritage.

What is also important to note is that while this trend disturbs me, I do not hold the individuals who behave in this way accountable, but rather the individuals who themselves are a by product of the culture ,who do not effectively demonstrate its value do to their own selfish pursuits of fame and fortune.

It is for that reason, that I take responsibility as well as the initiative to provide a solution for the problem.

The fact is that a majority of things that one may find attractive and intriguing in regards to Hip Hop culture actually have their roots in this novel of discussion as well as other discourses of expression from the days prior to when a thing known as Hip Hop culture even existed. Everything starts off somewhere, and it is up to individuals to pay homage to the source in order for the integrity to be preserved.

With that said, I hereby declare, the following stance.

Party like a rock star. yet rock stars have been shown to desire to party like rappers, and rappers have been shown to desire to party like Pimps.
As For Pimps, its a REAL LIFE activity, which in actuality AINT EASY, EVEN ONLINE!

Examples are shown through various public figures.
Ice T who’s name and image are by products of Ice Berg Slim Literature as well as Ice Cube and many others whom are notable in Pop Culture can be counted in the equation.

Interestingly enough, this particular novel has been one of controversy in Los Angeles intellectual property circles, as the rights for a screenplay development of this story have been highly coveted for many years.

In 1973 one of his reality novels, Trick Baby, was adapted as a blaxploitation movie of the same name, directed by Larry Yust.

A movie adaptation of Pimp has been planned for a long time. There were announcements of a movie directed by Bill Duke and staring Ice Cube; that project was put on hold. In 2004 rapper Pras acquired the rights to produce a movie based on the book

For those of your who may have an interest in this and other works of the author, thanks to the Internet, it is no longer a challenge to locate and acquire the work as it once was in times past, yet for me individually, it was part of the intrigue of this type of literature as one of the most popular distribution outlets for the novel was in the form of Prison Libraries across the U.S. as it is known as a Jail House Classic.

In closing, the most important part of the scenario for me, is in regards to the fact that while the novel was created with the intention of steering individuals away from the lifestyle being described, it is a known fact that it has turned many individuals on to the actual lifestyle with disastrous results for many over time.

Out of all the pieces of literature that I have read, I can now confirm that this is the one that has had the greatest influence on me as a motivating factor in exploring the power and value of written and spoken word, which is what you are experiencing in the form of this online publication with a similar name.

Like anything else in life, I believe that nothing is truly inherently good or bad, but rather the intention and application of and by the individual taking the action and holding the desire .

The title of the novel is
PIMP- The Story Of My Life.

Due to the fact that it was brought into existence upon the recommendation of a college professor, I question whether or not it is to say he (Robert Beck) wrote a story of his life as a PIMP, or if it was his decision to PIMP his life story.

Holland’s most famous rapper MC Marino will be releasing his new mixtape, Crunk Funk, at two places at the same time. He will be present at the Golden Tulip Hotel where, at the same time, there will be a live connection through webcam with his release party in Rio de Janeiro. This other party will be shown on a big flat screen TV. So he can have all of his friends together at the same time.and his Dutch guests can get a taste of the Brazilian party.

This is just one of the many highlights; MC Marino has rented out the entire hotel so his VIP guests can party all night long without having to worry about driving back; He saved a room for everyone (including food and beverages).

Also, in every room there will be a private webcam through which the VIP guest can communicate with one guest from the release party in Rio. So you may be getting a hot webcam night…

If you don’t feel like online dating, there’s the possibility to take a midnight tour through Rotterdam with another VIP guest. Don’t forget to leave your girlfriend at home!

The entertainment will be provided by one of his good friends Marcia and her girlfriends. They will be giving a show as cardio striptease dancers that will be hotter than hot! Make sure you don’t miss them!

As if that isn’t enough; MC Marino will be performing some of his greatest hits with some special guest.

So if you want to feel like a true VIP… go get your tickets before it’s too late!

from
www.urbandictionary.com

A great reference (Urban Dictionary) is available at amazon.com, which may assist many in your pursuit of comprehending urban culture.

On that note, today’s lesson comes just in time as the demand has created the supply.

In regards to Black & Minority Culture, or URBAN Culture as it is more politically correct to say, right of the top, if your desire is to earn some street credibility for yourself, being Politically Incorrect will actually lead to the most respect, as it communicates to other souls that you are respectful enough to yourself and your principles to stand and hold your position regardless of how others think you are supposed to be.

In urban culture, it is know as DOIN YOU!

Picture life as an individual or group which was dependent on another individual or group to be themselves and do what they do naturally , in order for you to have an example to follow.

wigger

Would it not indicate that perhaps you are lacking in something naturally, which makes you  synthetic by nature?

Example
109156
Everyone already knows the name of this hairstyle, which is an Afro, right?
Wrong!
It’s official name is a NATURAL, or a BLOWOUT.

It is called a natural, because well, it is what it is, and what it is is natural.

The same exact way that being proud of what comes naturally and acting accordingly would provide you with street credibility and respect on a whole, is the exact opposite result that comes from doing anything other than, which would lead to bad credit on the street, Wall street, Main street or even here on Easy Street as well as Sesame Street according to Big Bird on Twitter!

Even deeper, is when if what comes naturally for you, is to copy that which comes naturally to others and not you, it would make you unnatural by nature and through the natural course of nature , individuals would tend to NATURALLY lack respect for you as you lack it for your own self.

It’s a PRICELESS  lesson to be learned by simply stating that,
ALL ethnic groups, cultures, genders, and different groups of people have something to be proud of from their own particular heritage, that makes Planet Earth a cool spot to hang out at while on your journey. Your ancestors would most likely also feel validated if you were to validate your own cultural heritage which you received from them.

Great things are meant to be shared, and in this great Salad Bowl of the westernized world, each is a key ingredient for the whole salad to be a healthy and enjoyable dish, so if you are a tomato, rep tomato trees to the fullest, as with lettuce, onions and peppers,etc.

Back to some more street slanguage which you may have been expecting to find here.
The fundamental reason why authenticity is the key ingredient in gaining respect is in the following analogy-

When I was a youth, if you were to come out of the house with an off brand type of shoes, attempting to represent them as authentic, the response you would recieve would be as follows…

BWAHAHAHAHA… Aw Damn Homie!
Dems aint NIKES,
fool dems is SIKES!”

Another life in the day at Your Friendly Neighborhood Pimphop.com
Upon discussion, it was decided that it is good to share with our viewers the types of experiences that we enjoy on a more continuous and up close and personal basis.

The above discussion was regarding time.

According to the said laws of physics, in short

two objects cannot occupy the same space at the same time.

{\Delta x}\, {\Delta p} \ge \frac{\hbar}{2}

Uncertainty principle.

Since this is PIMPIN,  I will simply rewrite this physics law to better match the way we see and do things.

1.Take two numbers.
2.Combine the two numbers to make a single number comprised of two numbers comprised of the number two.

2+2=22
Certainty Principle
Now WE CAN have our cake and eat it two.

Got It?
Good, now on with the show.

Supply & Demand



The Worlds Oldest Profession?
What Could You Possibly Learn About Economics, From Something Called PIMPHOP.COM?
Its just fiction, so consider it as entertainment.
Business is Business,
and if it is your pleasure, you have come to the right place.

Today’s discussion will be about something that even the most novice of person should be able to relate to, which is supply and demand, which is actually ate the root of economics as well as human existence as a collective, or what you would call SOCIETY.

First things first.
It is said that ALL MOTIVATION stems from an unmet need.
That would indicate that any action that any individual will take will be motivated by a thought of something which one is lacking.

John or Jane Doe will proceed to move towards toilet motivated by a need for a waste outlet.
Simple enough?
Good.

Now expanding into the dynamics of the flow chart, we would then say that the unmet need (demand) would require the creation of that which serves (supply). With that said, we would have two categories in place
A.Producers
B.Consumers

Here is where the game gets interesting.
If all motivation stems from an unmet need, it would then say that producers would posses a need to create and serve.This is where the line is drawn between the hustlers and the customers.
The concepts of capitalism breaks down to two primary schools of economic thought
1.Supply Side
2.Demand Side

Without getting into a long discourse in regards to the fundamentals, the current state of affairs in the world, as well as in America in particular would point to a class system which consists of three parts, which are upper, middle, and lower.

The debate in last years presidential raise was in regards to Now President Obama’s stance on Taxation.
Trickle down economics in short is based on the belief that tax breast for the upper class will lead to greater production which would then lead to greater demand from consumers as well as job creation, which would also increase production. this is based on the belief that the supply is actually what determines the demand, and the profits obtained by the upper class who tend to be the creators and producers of goods and services will then trickle down to the subsequent other classes.

President Obama’s stance is that although that may sound like a working example in theory, the current results of the economic condition will actually point to the flaw in this thinking.
The antithesis of this ideals says that a tax break for the middle class will actually increase the demand as consumers will be able to keep more of their income and will then stimulate the economy by creating a greater demand for goods and services due to the fact that there are  now sufficient funds available for use in investing into products that meet consumer needs.

I neither agree or disagree with the stance, yet I can ascertain that any action taking towards the middle of anything is usually in an attempt to marginalize and eliminate the mid point as unnecessary
(Cut Out The Middle Man).

Its what we call a separation between the Hustlers and the Customers, and in any economic set up where exchange is involved (trade) a recession is a natural occurrence.

For those who may hear the term (RECESSION), and react one way or the other, it simply states that the economy is contracting in size and the money stays in the hands of fewer and fewer people.
The light will then be seen when we know that those FEW are actually producers/creators as opposed to consumers, so my minimized economic flow chart works as follows.

You have The Bank, as Party A,
and you have said organizations which act as

Party B

and C.

The bank and or government institutions issue capital to each party for the production of goods and services.

Party B and C both have heads of each organization who’s responsibility is to make the organization profitable , and that is usually determined by the greatest ability to produce goods and services with the least amount of overhead costs.

Party A & B both produce products for each other as a body and parcels in exchange for monetary gain, which is then reinvested back into the bank source in order to continue the circulation.

The recession factor then shows itself as necessary as an elimination process to cleanse the circle of circulation of that which is not necessary in the production cycle. Put another way, you are only important, so long as you are useful or necessary.

To bring the discussion back to the language of the common folk, I would refer to a script from a popular pice of literature.

Origin

From the Bible, Acts 20 (King James Version).

In everything I showed you that by working hard in this manner you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’

The simple reason is that in order to receive one must also give, and those who are primarily focused on consumption will be in lack of funds due to their own inability to produce that which serves the needs of others in exchange for monetary compensation.I question if any person who took the time out to read this post would have radially spent any money on something that did NOT serve their needs which was actually created or sold by another and the unemployment rate will continue to grow if individuals as such are looking for employment in order to earn money to invest into products, and are not productive enough to contribute to the production process of the company which they are seeking to attain employment from or retain employment at.

On that note, I commend President Obama, in his visit to my home state of California, which is one of the states with the worst economic climates for the time being.
On his Facebook Page, I was able to see a mutual agreement and similar taste in literature, as one of his few listed pieces is

Self-Reliance (Emerson).

My gut instinct leads me to believe that time will reveal that victory and defeat for most individuals will be determined by the concepts of the above listed literature.

As for me, in regards to supply and demand, if there was a demand for critical thinking literature from Emerson and others, as well as literature from

President Obama,
then there will be a demand for literature from me, which is being supplied to you as you read this. As far as the compensation is concerned, I trust that in due time,it will all come through in the wash, so I am eternally thankful that I have it to share in the first place.

My Motto-“Get it In Writing….. LITERALLY!”

A different perspective to consider.

Keep it real with reality

These days it seems like all you ever see on television are realityshows. From modeling contests to survival tests to datingshows, it just can’t be crazy enough. Sometimes I wonder why these shows are so popular. Is it because through these shows you can laugh at people without hurting them? Or is it because it’s about everyday life and people like to see things they can relate to?

Whatever it is, I know that television producers are very happy with this concept: it’s a lot cheaper for them to ‘hire’ someone without any fame and thus will work for free than to pay some expensive tv-personality.

Being a model, I also understand girls that want to appear in these realityshows. It seems like it’s the easiest way to become famous. And it is. At least in the Netherlands, where I live. When you participate in a realityshow you become an instant celebrity. Television/radio interviews, photoshoots in magazines, free club entrances, just to name a few perks. You will even experience having an occasional groupie (someone that’s only interested in your fame). I know, because I’ve been there.

But like anything else that comes easy, one rule can be applied : Easy come, easy go. Having participated in a realityshow the fame goes away before you actually realize it’s there. When the show you appear on ends, another one will begin. That new show will bring some new instant celebrities to the public eye and magazines and television stations won’t be interested in you anymore. Without them you won’t be getting the exposure you need to stay famous, so there goes your fame.

That probably makes some of you wonder: what makes people want to appear in these realityshows? Is it because lately people will do anything for their 15 minutes of fame? Or do they all think that they will be the exception to the rule? That they’ll be the first ones that will actually have a career in television after the show?

Maybe it is just that. People interested in the entertainment industry can’t keep it real(alistic). Everybody that wants to be a singer, actor, movie producer, etc. is trying to work against the odds. Because seriously, how big is the chance of a Dutch girl becoming an international actress? Very slim. But if every Dutch girl wanting to be an actress stopped trying, the world would miss out on a lot of great actresses. See my point?

So keep on dreaming and do the things you feel you need to do. After all, it only takes one exception to break the rule. Just keep it real when it comes to realityshows…
