THE TRIUMPHANT
I have come to the conclusion that Lil Wayne and his label are OVER.
Kanye West and his label G.O.O.D. Music are the future.
Pusha T released a song last week that dissed Drake, saying that he’s weak and he signed to three labels just so he wouldn’t flop. And that’s true.
Then Lil Wayne just comes on twitter and says “Fuk Pusha T and anybody that love em”
Well fuck Lil Wayne then. His label has always been shit, and I’ve never wanted to say it because I have friends who like him, but now I’m gonna say it because his lyrics, his style, and his label has gone to hell in the past three years. He beats his fans with skateboards and threatens their lives, he disses people because they reveal the truth of his shitty label.
Let’s be honest, YMCMB only has Busta and Wayne. That’s pretty much it. None of the others are respected anymore.
Kanye West is a music VISIONARY. He changed the rap genre to a more respected style of music, and his musical sense is absolutely perfect. All of his albums have been regarded as art, and no one can change that.
His label has the best artists in the music industry. Not rap music, the MUSIC industry. Kid Cudi, John Legend, Big Sean, Pusha T, Cyhi, Common, GLC, Q Tip, 2Chainz, and tons more.
G.O.O.D. is the future. YMCMB is dead. Deal with it.
You sold us out, Clark. You gave them the power that should have been ours. Just like your parents taught you. My parents taught me a different lesson… lying on this street… shaking in deep shock… dying for no reason at all. They showed me that the world only makes sense when you force it to.
For years, Kanye West’s music label has been giving us great quality music that makes us scream with joy. Seriously. So Appalled and Take One for the Team are fucking great.
And now, G.O.O.D. Music is finally making their mark with CRUEL SUMMER, 2012’s most epic music album.
Everyone from G.O.O.D. Music is on it.
Kanye West, Kid Cudi, John Legend, Pusha T, Big Sean, etc.
GET IT!
MY TOP TEN COMIC CHARACTERS OF ALL TIME (MY OPINION)
I’ve been thinking about this for years, and now I’m finally posting it. My opinion will probably change in another five years, but right now this is it. This is a list of comic characters that I love and that touched my heart in a way that others didn’t. I hope you guys like it/agree.
10) Blade - Eric Brooks’ mother was bitten and killed by a Vampire while she was pregnant. This enhanced his cells and gave him more energy, which he used to slay Vampires. Fifty years later, the scientifically-created Vampire Morbius tried to infect Blade, but instead it turned him into a half vampire. Now, he is the Daywalker. He is all of the Vampires’ strengths, and none of their weaknesses. What can I say? Badass. I first saw him in my old Dracula comics when I was like eight. Love at first sight.
9) Dylan Dog - Italy’s favorite comic character, no doubt. I met him about two or three years ago, before his crappy movie came out. I’m a huge fan of supernatural and horror stuff, so he caught my eye instantly. He’s basically a private detective who investigates the geekiest stuff. Zombies, Vampires, crazy demon cannibal gangsters, even Trolls living in the basement of a mansion. He’s accompanied by a hilarious assistant, Groucho, and together they have the funnest adventures that you’ll never wanna put down.
8) Melaka Fray - Buffy wasn’t the last Vampire Slayer. Waaaay in the future, a punk girl named Melaka was chosen to be the next slayer. Her rebel manner and awesome dialogue got me crushing on her in seconds. I love her.
7) Doctor Doom - If I was making a list of villains, Victor Von Doom would definitely be numero uno. This guy may not have any real superhuman powers, but he is the smartest person in the Marvel Universe. He can pretty much do anything, with anything. MacGyver doesn’t have shit on this guy. I love him, mainly because he speaks in the third person. Why is he doing this? He’s literally recording his life for some big autobiography thing. It’s awesome.
6) Parallax - The old one. This new one they have is freaking stupid. Around the early 90s, DC Comics figured that Green Lantern comics were becoming a little bland and they decided to replace Hal Jordan with Kyle Rayner (a much better GL if I do say so myself). Hal Jordan’s hometown of Coast City was destroyed and he pretty much went psycho. He took the name Parallax and tried to kill everyone and take over the universe. A lot of people agree that this is where Hal Jordan should have been…forever.
5) Frank Miller’s Batman - I know what you guys are thinking. Why this Batman over the real Batman? He’s just some alternate guy. Oohohoho my friend, he is much more than that. This incarnation of Batman first appeared in “the last Batman story,” The Dark Knight Returns. He appeared again in a sequel titled The Dark Knight Strikes Again. These stories took place in the future, but he appeared again in the past in Batman Year One and All Star Batman & Robin: the Boy Wonder. This Batman doesn’t fight crime because he has to, he does it because he wants to. He gets high off punching people in the face. He hates other heroes and sees himself as the only relevant one in the world. His attitude and view on fighting crime are really interesting to read. Check out those books.
4) Spider-Man - We all know his deal. It’s been told so many times it’s pretty much a bedtime story. What I love about the Web Head is that with whatever happens (Aunt having a heart attack, being impersonated and cloned hundreds of times, etc) he never forgets his uncle’s dying words: with great power, there must also come great responsibility. He never stops fighting for the greater good, and that right there is Amazing.
3) The Punisher - Frank Castle, Vietnam vet and ex federal agent was in a park with his wife and two kids one day. He loved them. But, during their picnic, they both witnessed a horrifying gang attack. Castle’s family were the only witnesses, so they were gunned down by the gangsters, leaving Frank barely alive. When he got into peak condition he let the world believe he was dead and became the Punisher. He got his revenge, and now every time he pulls that trigger flashes of his family come into his mind. He’s an amazing character that deserves more recognition (and better movies!).
2) Yorick Brown - Who the hell is this guy, right? He’s number two. Which is a huge deal. This guy was the main character of one of Vertigo’s most acclaimed comic series, Y: The Last Man. In the series, a devastating plague wipes out every living being with a Y Chromosome (basically every dude). Yorick Brown is the last guy on Earth, and together with an agent he’s secretly in love with and a lesbian doctor, they travel the world, trying to find answers on the plague and how to maybe clone Yorick or get him to start reproducing. This character is normally a wise cracking hipster, but deep down he’s a hero. Who wouldn’t love him?
1) Daredevil - Yes. This is my favorite comic character. Blinded as a child, Matt Murdock found his other four senses had been enhanced by the toxic chemicals he was blinded by. When his father was killed but the Fixer, he was trained by a blind martial artist named Stick and became the costumed vigilante known as Daredevil. Frank Miller’s run on the series, followed by Brian Michael Bendis’s, showed how human this guy really is and how he can survive in the realest of worlds. Right now, everyone suspects him of being Daredevil and he can’t even do his lawyer thing anymore. He has to teach people how to represent themselves in court. Also, the feds are all the way up his ass with questions. With all the depressing stuff, Daredevil does what it takes to protect his neighborhood of Clinton, New York (Hell’s Kitchen). He is easily the greatest comic book character of all time.
Hope you liked my list guys! Remember, this is just my opinion. Thanks for reading!
The Incredible Hulk#7
BRUCE BANNER IS NOT THE HULK.
THE HULK IS THE HULK.
Let me explain.
Doctor Doom, trying to get Banner not to reveal any of his dirty plans for the FF, was able to split Bruce Banner and the Hulk into two separate entities, so the Hulk could kill Bruce Banner.
I’m just going to say it right now, since no one really reads this series.
He does.
The Hulk kills Bruce Banner.
It’s a massive explosion that destroys most of the jungle/island thing Banner was living on.
So…
I’m not that sad. Bruce Banner was always a pussy. Now that the Hulk is actually a badass without a speech impediment, I can finally enjoy comics again.
Thanks, Marvel.
