Due to the continued disturbance of our right to quiet enjoyment by the powers that be, we've moved down the street to a much more tolerant neighborhood. With thanks to Ubiquity Hosting, always keeping it straight gully, we are living large at.... somethingvicious.com. Serious respect to Melty for sorting all this shight out. Big ups!
This will likely be the last post on a blogspot account. It was fun while it lasted but we are taking our vicious swagger some place else. cause its fun.
Fuck street signs.
While at our new domicile, please enjoy a complimentary listening of the Something Vicious vol. 1 mix.
What a strange coincidence...Kanye releases a track off his new album which is a somber and downtempo song about keeping his love locked down but then is arrested for assaulting a member of the paparazzi. SMACK! He definitely couldn't have gotten so amped from listening to his new tune! For me, the song is kind of a let down, but the remixes are hott! Maybe Kanye was all geared up from the recent work his new track has received. Either way, keep fighting the good fight Kanye. Remixers have got yo back.
Some of you may already be familiar with The Death Set (refer below to the negative thinking remix my bro and I put together). These guys are definitely on blast right now with their new remix album. There's a remix of negative thinking on the album by a little known producer who goes by the name of Treasure Fingers. Who the fuck is this guy? He seemed to come out of nowhere.**
I would like to bring everyone's attention to a new fad I'm encountering on the regular...stupidity. Its in. Its like the new pink. This fad is openly embraced by the popular media: youtube, news outlets, and resonates, along with bass, at party scenes. There's a sense of populism fueling this movement. And instead of ranting about this cultural trend I would like to provide a soundtrack. So turn down the smart and pump up the stupid!
First up, Bill O'Reily. He's a self-proclaimed "culture warrior" and has convinced millions of other nonreflective Americans that they too can be like him...dumb as hell.
Next, we have the infamous Soulja Girl. You know I really do feel bad for this girl. She obviously has some rhyming talent but instead of yelling from the vocal booth to get her headphones turned up she turns her inner thug on an old woman sitting in a packed train. Bipolar or not, thats stupid mean.
Moving on to our next thread of stupid, hatin' on Obama. dumb, dumb, dumb. The next track was crafted from a minister's sermon showering criticisms on our future president. But, instead of reflecting this man's apparent ignorance, DJ Excel made this track into an instant banger that can be appreciated in clubs and dirty basements everywhere. Oh Bama gettin' money!
So, where can we look for a remedy? Exposure. Get your ass to the library and do work son...

Its been a while since I last posted. School started so that means classes to take and teach. Im really not complaining. Grad school is not easy but its better than the range of alternatives. Either way, there has definitely been some vicious posting activity lately and I want to keep this crazy train rolling. Check out my bro from buffalo Chae Hawk. He's one of the realest and hardest workers Ive come across. Show his myspace some love and be on the look out for this dude.
