Basically J.O.K.E.s are the names for my opinion pieces now. Short for “Journal Of King Eljay”, I’ve decided to OD and make some of these public. The topics will range from music to whatever I feel like addressing at the time, so just be prepared. I’m just sayin’…”
~~~
Finally, I come up with a clever name for my opinions. Took long enough, right?
“J.O.K.E. – To Provoke A Monster” (8.7.09)
“I got enough dirt on you to murder you…this is what the F**K I DO…” Why did Mariah have to diss Eminem?
“J.O.K.E. – A Lack Of Respect” (Originally written on 8.11.09)
Sorry, I’m not a big fan of Raekwon after the Rock The Bells incident…
“J.O.K.E. – To “Hound” A Hater” (8.16.09)
Vick was wrong. But what people are trying to do to him? I feel that’s the bigger injustice…
“J.O.K.E. – A Letter To…(Charles Hamilton)” (8.20.09)
Who’s faster: Sonic the Hedgehog or Usain Bolt? Let’s ask Sonic’s biggest fan himself…
“The Response… (Charles Hamilton)” (8.27.09)
Ok, so C.H. didn’t answer. That was to be expected…but someone else did…
“J.O.K.E. – ‘Last Day’ Mindstate: RIP DJ AM” (8.28.09)
Inspired by the events of that day (but not directly related)… I sometimes wonder if people understand what it means to live a day as if it’s your last…
“J.O.K.E. – Hi Hater…Inspired By Jay-Z Fans Everywhere” (9.2.09)
Since when can people NOT agree to disagree without resorting to names? S.M.H.
“J.O.K.E. – The Mr. West Complex” (9.15.09)
It’s funny how one of the MINOR stunts Kanye pulled on Taylor Swift has garnered the biggest response…
“J.O.K.E. – An Introduction…” (9.15.09)
K1ngEljay.com’s theme song…for lack of a better term, lol.
“J.O.K.E. – A Different Opinion” (9.17.09)
I didn’t think this follow-up was needed until President Obama called Kanye a “jack*ss”…
Since when did the word “real” lose its real meaning? That’s backwards…
“J.O.K.E. – A Letter To Rihanna” (11.7.09)
You’re dead wrong for what you’re doing. That’s not cute at ALL. Leave C.B. alone.
“The Informative J.O.K.E. – The Bigger Picture” (11.12.09)
When it’s all said and done with, it makes sense why Beanie Sigel would diss Jay-Z. This is just adding more details to it…
“J.O.K.E. – A Letter To FaceBook” (11.16.09)
See, this social site right here is frustrating me…lowkey..
“J.O.K.E. – The New York Anthem Award” (12.2.09)
This isn’t a debate… Frank Sinatra’s anthem is better than Jay-Z’s anthem. On to the next one…
“J.O.K.E. – Being Normal Again (The Re-Introduction of Charles Hamilton)” (12.7.09)
Homie is back… here’s to hoping it’s for good this time.
“J.O.K.E. – The ‘New’ Ultimate Hustler?” (12.12.09)
Dame Dash? HAHAHAHAHA no. Try Kelis. Yes, Nas’ ex-wife.
“J.O.K.E. – A Letter To…Shane Sparks” (12.19.09)
Is there a polite way to call someone an idiot? I used the ‘sandwich method’ for this one…
“J.O.K.E. – Seriously, Lupe…” (12.22.09)
My favorite J.O.K.E. so far… Music is more than just music to some people. If you can’t understand that, then your maturity level is pretty low…
“J.O.K.E. – A Quick Question For Bow Wow” (1.7.10)
1 Million downloads in a day, Bow? Ok, props, but tell me why it’s a good thing for you not to be able to GIVE AWAY your last CD, but you can give away your mixtape with the best of them… I’m listening…
“J.O.K.E. – Bullet Points” (1.14.10)
Not the brightest moment Gilbert Arenas ever had… Just saying.
“J.O.K.E. – A Letter To Slaughterhouse” (1.18.10)
I hate beef, and I dislike Benzino. But…I dislike Benzino more than I hate beef…So I’m willing to make an exception.
“J.O.K.E. – An Illuminating Theory…” (1.23.10)
Is Jay-Z a freemason? Part of the Illuminati? Are we possibly overreacting maybe a little? I think there’s other issues in music that we should worry about more than this…
“J.O.K.E. – A Slight Difference” (1.26.10)
Haters make the world go around. Sometimes. And then, sometimes you just have to ignore them.
“J.O.K.E. – I’d Rather Not: My Issues With The ‘We Are The World’ Remake” (2.16.10)
This is one of those ideas that just seemed destined to be screwed up from the start and, well, we saw what happened.
“J.O.K.E. – The S.T.D.” (2.24.10)
S.T.D.’s are not cool, even if they are made up acronyms to describe Tiger Woods’ mentality when returning to the public eye. Just saying.
“J.O.K.E. – An XXL Complaint” (3.10.10)
I still don’t understand why OJ Da Juiceman is here. Seriously.
“J.O.K.E. – Sacrifices” (3.17.10)
A lot of times, choices have to be made in order to pursue what you love. Some people can’t live with those choices, and when I wrote this, I was dealing with that as well…
“J.O.K.E. – A Tale Of two Simmons” (3.23.10)
Truthfully, Diggy is dope. How his brother reacts to that fact will show more character than anything they could say.
“I’ve heard people call me insane, but I’m IN my sanity, so it doesn’t seem as bad.” If that went over your head, just skip this post.
“J.O.K.E. – It Could Work: Sonic And Robotnik” (3.31.10)
If Sonic and Robotnik could team up on video games, then the real Sonic (Charles Hamilton) and Robotnik (Rhymefest, lol) could too…right? Ok, let me explain…
“J.O.K.E. – Bulldog Tenacity” (4.6.10)
Never give up. It benefits everyone, whether you know it or not. Take the Butler Bulldogs for example.
“J.O.K.E. – Seriously, Tiger” (4.8.10)
At first, I only suspected, but now I KNOW Tiger’s not sorry. If he was, he wouldn’t try to exploit his situation like THIS.
“J.O.K.E. – To Each His Own (The Shyning)” (5.4.10)
Everyone has an opinion about something. This is my opinion on Shyne’s barrage of music… (Mystikal > Shyne)
“J.O.K.E. – A Word Of Thanks” (5.10.10)
To put a few things in perspective, sometimes you need to appreciate a few things. Family being primary.
“J.O.K.E – Breaking Promises” (5.22.10)
I hate talking about ladies of the evening hustle (ha), so here’s to hoping this is one and done. My thoughts on Kat Stacks…
“J.O.K.E. – State of Address: Drake” (5.27.10)
State of Address are just me developed opinions concerning a few of todays brightest stars. Today’s subject is Drake…
“J.O.K.E. – Pointing Out the Obvious” (5.31.10)
Diddy went to visit Lil Wayne in jail. He says it was innocent…I say that’s false…
There’s a reason why Eminem and Kanye West are my two favorite rappers. Hopefully this will explain it.
“State Of Address: Part II – Lupe Fiasco” (6.7.10)
Let’s watch and see how many people miss the point of this article…
“State of Address: Part II – The Lupe Addendum” (6.7.10)
Truthfully… I usually don’t respond to people if they’re stupid, but…
“Catfighting: The Lil Kim / Nicki Minaj Issue” (6.19.10)
This is one of the stupidest one-sided beefs I’ve seen in a long time. Lil Kim’s doing too much.
“Catfighting: The Addendum” (6.21.10)
After further consideration, I think I know why Lil Kim might be lashing out suddenly… it’s still stupid, but it makes more sense when you tie in Diddy…
Hypothetically speaking, would it be a bad thing if Drake outsold Eminem on the strength of first-week sales?
“State of Address: Part III – Eminem” (6.29.10)
While we’re on the subject of Eminem, here’s my State of Address on him…
“Lebron-ism: The Art of Overthinking” (7.5.10)
Watch as an NBA fan thinks entirely too hard about the future of one of the most dynamic NBA players he’s ever seen play…
