Cooking Beef (Originally posted on 9/10/2010)

Hola, good people;   I hope your day is going well. I’m in a good mood. As I’m typing, I’m actually pop-locking (bet you didn’t know I was that talented). Lot of important things going on right now, but I believe it’s necessary to get this beef off my chest. By the way, beef brisket sounds disgusting. I heard somebody on the sitcom “The Game” say, “That’s why you smell like beef brisket.” Almost threw up.

Any who…back to business; Trey Songz, I’m calling you out. That’s right, “Playa”, I said it. You out here trying to show out, and I’m not feeling it. My first point of beef: Calling yourself “Mr. Steal Yo’ Girl”. Really, Tremaine? That’s how you flow? So you mean to tell me when Pick 6 blows up (Check us out on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/pick6time lol) I can’t bring my girl around you, or you’ll try to jack me? That’s messed up, homie, messed up. I recently read at Black Colleges the female to male ratio is 7:1 or something crazy like that. You better take your black behind to Morgan State and get you a bitty! Be reasonable, homie, you should have no problem getting girls. You got a thin mustache, you haven’t worn a shirt since your debut album, and above all, you’re an R&B singer. If you’re having problems getting your own women…I don’t know, call Usher or somebody. But since you want to be a hater, I’M releasing an album to compete with Passion Pain and Pleasure. It will be released under my alias Seis Songz, aka “Mr. Get Your Own Girl”. Fall back brother.

Secondly, I heard you rapping now. I heard you spitting “hot rhymes” on your mixtapes. Come on, Dog! I’m glad to know you can diversify and all, but can you stay focused on this singing thing? SOME OF US like to use your music to set the mood. I’m not going to put up candles, rose petals, get the massage oil, and then have you beat boxing on the track. Slow down. Besides, I’ve never heard Ron Isley or Teddy Pendergrass spit a nice 16. Not necessary.

Now playa, I’m saying all this to you because I know you got talent. You’ve been working hard and it’s paying off, for you and all the brothers who can’t sing so they play your CD to their lady. But don’t let it go to the head, dude. Chris Brown is almost back in good graces with the media, and I’ll convert like Islam.
 That’s all for now; I hope you all are getting ready for the upcoming season of Pick 6. We’ve got a new location, new sketches, guest appearances…and much boogie. Season 3 is sure to be the real deal…Chili cheese fries good. For more info, come here, www.pick6time.com, the facebook page, or follow us on twitter @pick6time. Peace, grace, and Bouillabaisse.

"What's Up, Youngblood?": A Deeper Look At The Old School Player

They are found pretty much everywhere: at the supermarket, on the second floor at your job, and especially at family reunions. Though conspicuous in nature, this species is easy to spot. No I'm not talking about roaches, you heathen; I'm talking about the "Old School Player", aka a "piiimmmmp". Now it is important to differentiate between an Old School Player and a man who is simply "old school". My father, known affectionately as Charles Perry (please say the full name), is old school; he has traditional values, rough hands, and watches westerns like "Gunsmoke". An Old School Player (O.S.P) is different; they are commonly outlandish, shifty, and laugh really weird. These well-tenured romeos carry great influence on the youth of America, specifically young males. Coming into contact with old school playas brings guys to a critical transition in life: the older men become an example for their younger counterparts. Gentlemen decide f...

The Nice Guy Rules

"Nice guys finish last." What a hogwash statement. Seriously; it's baloney, maybe even pastrami. Through entertainment, business, and romance, the belief is that a man with etiquette and morals is one with diseases, like the measles or swine flu. When you turn on your television or read your news...kindle, you witness arrogant, womanizing egomaniacs praised as charismatic men with undeniable "swagger". Men who are interested in helping others and making people enjoy themselves are undervalued. The result is young men trying too hard. These men, known as "Nice Guys", are seen as sweet people who are great to know and make you laugh, but are OFTEN over looked for men who...use less effort to receive approval. As a teen and in my early college years, I played into this. It's such a weird feeling; you become enamored with doing right by people, as if it determines whether people will like you. Half the time, if you are "too" nice, peo...

I'm a Hater (Acknowledging Your Faults and Using to Reach Prosperity)

I, Cedric Charles Perry, am a hater. Whew...though it's tough to say, admission is the first step to recovery. It's a gene that has traveled throughout my family tree; my great-grandmother has been recognized as one of the more influential haters during the civil rights movement. My sister Dee actually holds the Pennsylvania state record for most consecutive statements using the word "corny", with 46. It appears that there are numerous types of haters; my type is called "Conditional Hater", where in attempts to create humor, I will break out in uncontrollable hating. Recognizing that this trait runs in my family, I was bound to be a hater and it's better for me to acknowledge this now and help others who share this condition. To better address this addiction, which currently affect approximately 3.6 million people in America (I made that number up), let's identify what hating is. Rapper LL Cool J once stated that hating is "identifying a perso...
