So I’m not big on Celebrity gossip but when I woke up this morning and heard that Tila Tequila was choked by San Diego Chargers Linebacker Shawne Merriman. I mean Tila Tequila is a small girl and Shawne Merriman is 6'4" 265lbs! Definitely an unfair fight! Merriman May have just ruined it for all the guys by choking her. A shot at love for the guys may be out the picture now. Well that was my 2 cents about some celebrity gossip.
Man Oh Man, I put in a super good workout today! Seriously I gets it in and the transformation is going great. I'm transforming for the good, so I guess you could consider me and autobot...naw'sayin!
I’ve been working on some stuff and it is still in the rough stages but here it is:
[Untitled] I’m living on the of Martians Myspace con-artist Facebook scholars and Twitter Followers Universe planet hoppers Located within Galaxies of fallacies And status is not based on impact but by how many stars you know We plant apple seeds and pick Iphones from Trees While gathering blackberry’s from bushes Horses with Gucci Manes are ridden by Louis Vuitton Dons But I can offered Sean Jean But I smell Good So I pronounce that I Am King of this Fantasy Land Where purple haze skies and Kush Clouds Leave my people dazed and confused And radio frequencies hypnotize the masses to believe that hip hop is dead………..
So that was that and it needs a lot of work still but yeah. Well I would like to leave you all with one of my favorite Family Guy clips involving Cool W(h)ip!
As I sit here watching Pootie Tang, while producing another Blog, I realize that Pootie Tang is one of the WORST movies ever made in movie History! So I’ve been working out everyday going through this transformation to get the body of the Black Greek God Zeus Tholoneus King (Please don’t try to Google or Bing)! Next time I come to California I’m going to be a little bit bigger than normal, so watch a Cali Peeps! Truly this weekend I need to call some friends and catch up, and see how things are going. I’m the worst at getting back to people when it comes to phone calls. I want to try to make work this weekend while I’m off so Pick up the phone if I call because it is a rare occasion.
So I was browsing the Internet I came across this photo of Keri Hilson on the cover of Complex magazine. Honestly how can you not like Keri Hilson! She is one of the sexiest women with short hair, and if you don’t think so, you probably like cock and balls (No homosexual offense intended).
I have been slaving since Sunday and it will definitely be a relief to have the weekend off! I’ve been pondering, noticing, and writing a lot during the week so I’ll have some brilliant topics for the weekend! I’ll add a hint of Arizona experiences in there for you all as well! Until then, I’ll leave you with a video from Fresh Daily! If you don’t know, now you KNOW Fresh Can Spit!!!!SHOUT OUT TO ALL MY DAY DREAMERS!!!!!
We live in a world that has been polluted by chorus driven Hip Hop with no substance. Smog composed of ringtone rap, swagger, & trends, makes it hard to rely on real Hip Hop as a source of fresh air. It seems like every where you go; it is hard to get away from the Radio Bull Shit. I stopped attending clubs mainly because of the fights, and the atmosphere was always the same. People always say, “I just go to have fun with my friends,” which could be a true statement at times. #1 reason why I stopped going is because the DJ’s play Bull Shit!
I’m officially happy to say that I have found my breath of fresh on Saturday nights in Phoenix, Arizona, at a place called the Hidden House! If you are a fan of Rakim, The Chronic Snoop Dogg & Dr. Dre, M.O.P., J. Dilla, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Living Legends, Exile, Oh No, Slum Village, Atmosphere, KRS-one, Little Brother, Steel Pulse, Bob Marley, Erykah Badu, Old School Outkast, Chaka Khan, and the list can go on forever! As I was saying…..if you are a fan of Artist such as the few that I listed, The Shop on Saturday Nights at The Hidden House is the place the be.
The Shop was started by DJ Al Page. Being a DJ in Arizona, he was fed up with playing the music that everyone else wanted instead of staying true to his roots, so he created The Shop.
“My dislike towards mainstream comes from the fact that 99% of that shit is whack. Clear channel and MTV have a system that the average person buys. People are too lazy and settle for what is fed to them. There isn’t one artist on MTV or the radio worth a fuck as far as I’m concerned,” stated DJ Al Page.
The music and the positive vibes is what always keep people coming to The Shop. I also forgot the mention that the drinks are cheap to and you should always tip your bartender. The dance floor is always packed due to amazing the music and the incredible people on 1’s & 2’s. Rather be it DJ Al Page, DJ KGB, DJ Ms. Robs, DJ Osama Big Serg, DJ Dn3, DJ Kris the fist, or the sexy DJ Brazilia, playing best in Underground Hip Hop, Classic Hip Hop Funk, Soul, and Reggae, The Shop is always the place to be on Saturday nights in Phoenix, AZ.

As I sit here bored out my mind watching MTV’s true and drinking an extremely nasty beer (Leinenpiugel’s Sunset Wheat Beer). The only thing I get out of this show is that there is love for everyone out there. I’m watching a broke fat guy with a beautiful model type looking chick. How did it happen…who knows? Can I hate…No! As I sit here and watch the TV I was thinking. Have you ever made it to point in your life where you get tired of working for someone else due to the fact it is not what you want to be doing in life? I’ve been at the point for a while now, that’s why I have made the move. I can’t wait to finish school and obtain a journalism degree but the same time I would It be amazing to own a night lounge and doing up the way I want it. Being your OWN BOSS would be the dream Job! Lot’s of stress and pressure but everything is done your way! I can’t wait for school to start so I can get back on track, and come back to California Successful! That is the plan in this small journey of mine while having a good time.
Two things I do not like right now are Black Guys in Skinny Jeans wearing UGG Boots and the Skin-It Commercial done in Auto-Tune!
I’m currently listening to the Kooley High Mixtape in my Car out the moment. My favorite track is Kooley is High. Check out the video Below!
Well I’m at a loss of words at the moment….So Arizona Peeps can catch here tonight! Cali Friends feel free to drive out and check it out!
Welcome to a Mixtape Sunday edition at WakeUpMrBess.Blogspot.com. I thought I would keep it simple today because I feel as if I have a 60 year old soul within me. I went out last night and came home at 3am. I would work at 7am, and it just so happened to be the roughest morning ever! Woke up with bug bites on my ribs and I was crazy tired! I don’t know if I can go be going out like that anymore.
So I downloaded 2 Mixtapes last week that have the potential to be albums. The first is by an artist by the name of QuEST. One of the most anticipated mixtapes of the year. Back by major Hip Hop websites Hiphopdx.com, illroots.com, & 2dopeboyz.com. Well the wait was definitely worth it! The Broken Headphones mixtape is must download and is Wake Up Mr. Bess Approved!
The next Mixtape I took a shot in the dark at because I didn’t even know who Fresh Daily was! What a breath of fresh air! I am proud to say I that I can’t stop listening to it. The Tomorrow is Today Mixtape is one most creative concept albums. It needs to be in stores for sale, but it is here free for your listening ears. Both Mixtapes have the Wake Up Mr. Bess Stamp of Approval So Download them NOW!!!!
Born BLACK with a NAPPY AFRO and a BIG SMILE, I was given the Name DARRYL W. BESS JR., but you can save your breath and call me DJ! I'm just try'n work hard now so I can kick back later. I think I am a SIMPLE but EXTORDINARY guy. So If you Want to know More just hit me up on AIM = DBESSJR315.
