McCain Campaign
June 12th, 2008
Thumbs up, McCain. Thumbs down, Feldman.Sorry for the delay, but I have been thrown in and out of McCain’s campaign in a matter of one week. I was going to undertake the responsibilities of North Carolina’s volunteer coordinator, but the position was scratched and in it’s place a victory chair was given the duty. I have no regrets in signing up for the job, only it left me unemployed midway through the summer. I was really looking forward to having a ongoing report on the developments of North Carolina politics and the presidential campaign. If Obama ends up winning in the fall, my departure might be one reason pundits use to explain it. That and about one hundred other reasons, but I like to think I would have had an impact. Nevertheless, the McCain campaign is down one executive volunteer. The image shown suggests McCain might not need a victory chair in North Carolina, but a laxative and toilet. – Ben Feldman

Plies: Goon with a Heart
June 12th, 2008I was listening to Plies on a Wild 98.7 – a Tampa, Florida radio station (it was posted online; originally broadcast was on Tuesday). After the Deejays played “Somebody (Loves You)” from The Definition of Real:
- a single mother of two calls – she lost her future husband, job, and was in the process of losing her house
- she thanks Plies for recording such a heartfelt song (“Somebody (Loves You)”)
- she says she’s on her way to a job interview
- Plies asks where – and gets directions – saying he’ll be by after the show waiting for her to give her some money to help her out
- the woman starts crying, as do all the Deejays in the radio station
Listen to the whole interview CLICK HERE. Fast forward to 28.00 if you want to hear what I described.
Now, I know a lot of people think Plies is what’s wrong with rap, but when was the last time an entertainer did something like this?
Props to Plies.

Q-tip
June 12th, 2008
As a producer it is very possible (he’s underrated) because most people don’t even know Q-Tip produces. In addition to producing a variety of tracks off classic albums from Illmatic to The Infamous, Q-tip was just as important to ATCQ production as Ali Shaheed Muhammad. Although it is unconfirmed how much of the ATCQ albums he produced, I believe it was at least half or a collaborative effort on most tracks. Anyway, this leads me to the old school joint of the day….a Q-Tip produced song off The Infamous, which is truly a classic hip hop album. Too bad Mobb Deep fell off and sold out. – Ronnie Stern
