AND GOD BLESS MAREE7!!!!

(where are my manners?)

So nice to see like-positivity in motion

LOL @ the Billy Baddazz comment




c ya'll soon HOME!!!

Sky Blue!!! Hey, it always seems a sunny day when i read ya posts!!!
Thanks for more input on the matter of one like myself coming back home to try a piece at personal and national wealth.
I have researched my market, it is actually a market that is virtually demanded by everyone everywhere, the location has developed and its not in the middle of nowhere so my stocks of supplies will go but the thing is to think bigger after 1-2 years of doing it.
Besides, I have other talents that can come in handy like Office working or IT Contracting but I'm really trying to focus on the last thing EVERYBODY is doing, like something that has been ignored or needs attention of very few willing to commit to making it a biz.
Yeah, i did go over board putting my personal b.i in respponse to a post but its a true thing for people to check ones oathes to COME BACK TO AFRICA.
Europeans have scared us into not wanting to return to THE DARK CONTINENT and good or bad meaning brothers and sistas will utter words of encourgement or discouragement as the case may be about coming back after many years to a land that is either VERY BEAUTIFUL/BOUNTIFUL or PLAIN SCARY!!!
My assertion of Naija is the former (Beautiful etc) and it's also my right as a proud black westernized soul to return to Mother Africa to see what his destiny will be in a land they say is truly our home. I've been a traveller of sorts in the past 2 decades, why not travel back to Africa instead of Spain or Italy? Why not have another life adventure somewhere I can call home away from present UK home?
It just sounded funny hearing/seeing a 'joke' that I wouldnt last 2 yrs or so, it takes at least 12 months to see if your biz is doing good numbers and another 12 months for it to to fail with bad numbers/returns even if you put your back into it and it still failed.
All I know is I'm treating my return as my life in my own hands finally and totally so my future for the next 5-10 years depends on that return.
Best believe this JJC is gonna fight life a rat backed into a corner to survive in good ol grimey Nigeria.
I really, really cant wait to come home!!!

Stay blessed, Sky Blue and the rest of the crew, man tummy dey rumble, feeding the dog has made me hungry, LOL!

Peace,

Jesus, this is a nice spot but it seems as crazy as hip hop itself!!!
LOL!!!
See how the thread started in a peaceful manner but degenerated into a fracas!
Some good point, some angry points, some misinformed points and points of intelligent opinions.
Rap imitates life like any other art form, my brothers and sistas!
There are also different types of rap, I will use a descipt i will jack from wikipedia to name a few:
* Abstract hip hop
* Alternative hip hop
* Australian hip hop
* Bass music
* Beatboxing
* Christian hip hop
* Conscious hip hop
* Country rap
* Crunk
* Dirty rap
* Dirty South
* East Coast hip hop
* Emo rap
* gangsta rap
* Ghetto house
* Hardcore hip hop
* Hip pop
* Indie hip hop
* Jazz rap
* Nerdcore hiphop
* Old school hip hop
* Rap
* Rap rock
* Reggaeton
* Southern hip hop
* West Coast hip hop
There ya go, nice n easy,

So who do the haters hate here?
Who do the reppers/rap lovers throw bows to and give a dope head nod to in this piece?

Not one of these will ever accurately describe hip hop, not one of these should be blamed for any ones beef wit hip hop.
Just becos I dont like Down-South or West coast rap doensnt mean i dont like any rap.
Just cos i pay no attention to christian or gospel rap doesnt mean all rapper rap about God, Jesus and wutnot.
I can go on and on, a black man that hates Hip Hop/all rap becos of gangsta rap is a black man lost, of little musical taste if any and one obviously believing the white media hype that it is the music of the devil.
How comes you got Gospel rap then?
Doh!
Me, like many of you have already said, used to like the G-ed up shit till it became played and rapped by anyone and their grand ma (or Eminems mum when she dissed him for dissing her!)
When i got tired of listening to 50 Cent, Camron, Wu Tang and affiliates and Mobb Deep, etc I searched for other rappers to soothe my ear and love for poetry over phat beats.
So now its MF Doom, C Rayz Walz and a few lyrically talented ones for me. I tire only of hearing gunshots and murders on every track.
We all started listening to non-violent rap b4 NWA stepped on the scene, Cool Moe Dee, LL Cool J, EPMD, Ed O G and the Bulldogs were big to us back in the day but how the masses lusted after the violent rappers imitates the movies released and being used as portraits for violent life 'in the American hood' in the time after these guys came out.
Stallone/Rambos films became more violent, Swartzy/Governor of California's movies started to have higher body counts on each release.
Black youths also got more violent maybe watching these dummies movies. in an already shameful setting of being poor and neglected and as violent as the Bronx in real life and all american states these are the guys who stories the time of the era wanted to listen to.
Yeah we can blame the fake gods people, the jews, and other white men for financing the downfall/played outness of gangsta rap but who has been buying it?
We, the masses! as someone rightly pointed out before my long,huffy,protect the neck of hip hop stance was assumed
Hip Hop aint dead, Nas didnt kill shit.
Its all entertainment any way, people are still entertained by rap beefs even though some of us have grown up beyond that.
Remember, you have a little brother, sister, cousin or friend who is now a teen that listened to some of the things you played in your youths.
They are too you to have OUR outlook on rap/hip hop and werent even born when it started and flourished into mainstream media.
Remember the time when they said it would last?
Remember when Rockers where happy to associate themselves with being the baddest music genre before rap pistol whipped it into submission in the charts and movie cameos?
You got more rappers acting now than rockers but rock had its time in the 50's-70's.
Rap/Hip Hop's influence in the media and our lives (drive bys, lil fucking dick head kids thinking listening to rap makes them harder than a grown man that can snap their necks from real life stress with one finger and no gun) is a product of many years of grafting into our very own souls and music/crossover potential of anything rap related into either food (50 water-Saint Ides Malt Liquor by Wu Tang back day), fashion (FUBU, Phat Farm and Sean Jean which alot of you wear or have once worn, heheh)
I know i speak shit long time but i'm sure you must get my drift by now, whatever rap you listen to if any shows what you love/like in life, its just a simple reflection of the shit we get involved in or want to hear/listen to.
Political rap, mindless gun rap, bling bling rap, they are all rap but just different kinds of it.
Dont shit on hip hop cos of one spoiled egg, u aint doing a sensible argument to persecute it any justice with such lame arguments.
You'll sound dumb, slow, misinformed, ranting bout Politics in a music forum is stupid too. Who's that dude ranting bout everybody/swindlers of nations going to hell or whatever Hip hop and rap being evil or some other shit? you been smoking? Come back when sober
Rappers and rap can be dumb but it depends on who you are listening to and what GENRE of rapping he is reppin'.
Not all female rappers drop their draws and talk bout pussy and dick, not every rapper in the hood or from it talks of every picking up a gun to sort his bad hand in life out.

But then again, if Jesus people kill does that mean christianity is bad?
If Mohammed's people kill does that mean all of islam is bad.
Because fake white jews pretend to be Hebrew and kill Palestinians for the past 60 years does that mean Judaism is bad?
Is all religion bad?
Nope but I wonder what God has to say about rap if even his religons aint even doing a PERFECT job in the eyes of misinformed masses.
God? hold, up baby, let me crunk up my Fish Scale track 9 joint up from Ghost Face Killah while every body looking for a reason to kill Hip Hop, see you brothers and sistas later, The Grimey Holy One has spoken

Hi, family!

Uh, oh, a disbeliever in the midst?
LOL!, jeskiddin, i take your outlook on my future prospects with the same way i look at the pros and cons of anything in life.

There are alot of things about HolyMic that will prove you wrong.

I'm a very resilient character, I'm not getting into perishable agriculture such as tomatoes and I'm willing to take a wager that i will last more than 24 months.
I've done more than 24 months in a federal prison, i compare my freedom stuck in the land of my birth as more prison and I miss the lawless aspect of Nigeria which I believe can be used in a more productive manner.
My Father (R.I.P) has left his kids some land, which I propose to use for my biz, and a house, which none of here are in a hurry to lay claim to.
Mum who is still alive also has land and property in Nigeria. Both my parents are from Ogun State. The land/property is in Lagos and Mum also has a bit of land and a house in her hometown.
That takes care of spending, being duped by land owners (yes, my folks went through that already and finally had to use black magic to sort out the last fool to try them, may he not rest in peace, yes he is dead)
I'm not your regular JJC. Thank God I look younger and more harmless than I really am or can be but I tell you this, Nigeria's struggles when i get there will be nothing i've gone through in the West.
I appreciate your comments as it is in truth. A FEW people do try to come back but some swiftly return to the comfort of social care and free lodging in the UK.
Hahahahahhaha, the UK is so my enemy now if you asked them they'd tell u i'm one of the most dangerous British-born Nigerians on the the set.
At the same time I'm not stayin here anf doing my young man gangsta no mo'.
Mikey is older and wiser now, and hopefully more resilient to standing Cockroaches and mosquitoes now!!! LOL, they are my only worry/hate/fear!!
Humans? Snakes? When and if legend comes out of my younger days in the motherland you'd know I catch serpents with my bare hands and I used to train martial arts in the National Stadium back in the day.
I gots no worries bout all that except as you say the outcome of my agricultural venture.
I have no fears or worries of coming back home and I can also contact myself out in the IT industry if and when i have the time.
Mikey stubborn ooo, very stubborn boy!!!

Thanks for your insight but it has only made me look forward to the trip back home becos if i cant make it there then it means i cant make it anywhere, then maybe a self started bizness may not be the thing for someone such as me.
I highly doubt this though, money means survival and survival means many more things.

Have a nice day, I have to go feed my American Bulldog, I'll be coming home with a few of them and pitbulls as security for the biz.
LOL!

Peace, family and stay blessed!!!

@ Sky Blue,
Many many thanks and you are reading my mind as I go along with my plan.
I want to hire the young nephews, nieces or cousins interested in earning and learning with and and from me.
If all goes well in the next year or two I want to set up a charity, in Lagos, Ogun and Oyo states,for orphans. I have had my family around me most of my life and things are still hard.
Imagine what is like for someone with no one to call mummy, daddy, sister or brother.
I know/remember what its like to sleep hungry and without toys or special things that shape us to grow up to be healthy. happy and helpful adults later in life.
With the Almighty at my side I hope to make a (positive) change to something on the mighty planet and in our Great Nation; NIGERIA!!!

Bless!

, and also BRAIN DRAIN!!!
Remember the fact we Nigerians love anything 'Foreign'.
We love learning 'foreign'
we love living 'foreign'
A lot of us that can make a positive differenct to Nigeria's Economic growth don't even come back to chip in to the development of our Ancestral land.
I'm one of them BUT I plan to return this year ending to make a difference.
It takes years or maturity to realise that Africa has the same job/work/self employment opportunities that the West has to offer.
I can't speak for anyone else but I'm pretty much tired doing a London 9-5, having stupid breaks in contracts and the time in between.
Again, the day I become self employed fully becomes a time of uncertainty which I'd rather face in Nigeria.
In the UK u have the welfare system that takes care of you, pays you rent and such b.s when you are not working and this lazy lifestyle is one alot of us Africans have become accustomed to in the lands of 'Foreign'.
I watched 'The Great Debaters' awhile back and something Denzel's character said is very very true. A welfare state takes away a mans will to want to work or strive for a better future.
I want to return to take advantage of the agricultural needs of my Father's nation as I understand there is a need to fill that gap in certain markets/areas.
In the UK I work white collared jobs. Before that I was a cleaner, etc while studying for Network Engineering (IT)
The way I see the world chasing the same limited jobs amazes me but it shows if everyone is running around the world chasing such jobs who is going to feed the masses?
It (agric) is an area where one can make himself with the same magnitude as one wishing to open up JUST ANOTHER INTERNET CAFE OR CAR DEALERSHIP down the road.
Everyone has to eat. Maybe more so than logging onto the damn internet.
I have never had shame in the jobs I choose to do.
I understand even in Nigeria the westernised mentality of I WONT DO THAT JOB, ITS BENEATH ME is very prevalent. I havent even been there in over 15 years but my brother went to Nigeria to get married last year and his wife says some of the tings I propose to do back home are looked down by others than can actually do for themselves and be happy with an income.
Better for me.
The world is what you make it, Africans should take charge of their destinies the same way the Orientals (Japs, Chinese, etc) have.
And in more honest means than just international fame for fraud/419 and being dishonest bizness people ready to swindle good honest people that take risks in doing any bizness here in the first place.
If my mates that were born in Nigeria and live in London/NY are afraid to come here for some of the above last mentioned reasons how do you feel mr chingchong would feel about helping us be the best we can be.
Sounds like WE have to do this OURSELVES.
Somehow, slowly and surely,
God Bless all Africans!!!

Becos your mother didnt raise you right or wasnt in your life!!!
I see topics like "Of What Use Is My Girlfriend If I Can't Have Sex With Her?" and some slob crying about his woman making him poor.
Did your mum make your dad poor or enhance his wealth?
There is a difference btw prostitutes that take from you and a woman that will give you what you give her and if you are lucky MORE!
Love and relationships is a 50/50 deal and arrangment.
If one of you is unhappy while doing the best you can for the other be it man or woman then something is wrong.
I can understand a bit why men lament uselessly online becos women teach their friends to deal with a man appropriately but men are shy to talk when they have been pussy whipped till its too late or a too proud with a false manly ego that they are in charge even when the woman he loves makes him do the world for her and he gets or asks for nothing in return.
Its an in thing to have a woman on your arm and no one wants to look gay. (men)
Not withstanding if you cant manage your woman properly and be honest with her the way she tells you to financially support her ass then you aint a man yet!!!
Boys, you make me laugh and cry at the state men have lost their balls to modern media spinning of de-masculising of men and making us be some chivalry obsessed bleeps even when NOTIN FOR YOU!!!
Pussies! (not the women this time, the men making dumb posts that they aint really MEN)

Peace to those who want it
