I Gotta Have It

What's Good TEEEAMMMM? I know, I know; I've been really corny, not blogging at all. Trust me, when you see the end result of what I've been working on, you'll say, "It's cool, broseph." Anywho, I want to give y'all a little poem, inspired by some thangs in MY life lol...it's called "I Gotta Have It."


My man Spike said it best/
She’s  gotta have it/
Nola Darling in the flesh/
I like to test out my theory; I try to send a text/
A post on her wall, or an afternoon call/
Space it out, ‘cause I refuse to sweat her/
Of her dozens of pursuers, only I seem to know better/
Sweetie get jocks likes Dwight gets blocks/
But no twitter romance from this grown man/
...Yet I’m still drawn to her, and she to I/
She swears I’m a nice guy/
Loves the way I make her laugh, and strive to be the best/
My style makes her choke; she got a SWAG reflex/
Mmm, you know I gotta have it/
Dedicated check-out clerk: I gotta bag it/
If she thinks my jokes and my flirting is witty/
She’ll lose her mind when she sees my sensual creativity/
Have her asking “What’s Happening?” like Re-Run and Raj/
In the shower, lathered up with much more than body wash/
Want to talk? I’ll listen; Massage if your back hurts/
Cause this ain’t “Just for Me”; I’m here to RELAXER/
For now, I wait to show her that when I’m with her/
I’m Karl Malone’s son, I was born to deliver/
Yes you gotta have it, but just try it once my way/
I’m what you’ve been waiting for, like 4:30 on Friday.

"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...
