I only discovered Yelawolf aka Catfish Willie early January on Hip Hop IS Read (Thanks Ivan) when he released his album “trunk Muzik”. The music is exactly what the album title describes. It’s some supper 808 bass beats perfect for your wolfers and bazooka tubes in the back of your trunk. And don’t you dare think of Miami bass or techno bass.. This is HIP HOP maing!! And there is no question about it. At first when you hear Yalawolf rap, you may stereotypically think of eminem. But please keep listening because Catfish Willie is far far away from 8 Mile. Yelawolf comes true with lyrics that only an Alabama back roads gangster can really speak speak about. Dude is talking about driving 120 in the 20 with some liquor in one hand, being chased wondering to himself, what the F**k and I doing right now? Or he’s got a guy named Santana who is in the basement “Mixin Up the Medicine” then they “get jailed, jump bail”. He’s got a sick hook “Don’t make me go pop… the trunk. On you!” That’s tight. Basically I recommend starting at the first track “Trunk Muzik” and play each song in order.
Yelawolf “Trunk Muzik” is the best album I’ve heard in 2010. I know it’s only the end of January but it gonna hold up fool!!! lol

I stumbled on this movie over at http://frank151.com . It’s a different kind of documentary about street artists from all over the world doing big things in their realm. These artists are not your typical graffiti vandals yet they are exactly your typical graffiti vandals. I say vandals because society has not yet figured out how to deal with such amazing creativity like this in the world, so until we do, art like this will remain illegal.
Have you heard of the Google Wonder Wheel? Well I’m one of those people who just recently heard of it. The Google Wonder Wheel is a fun new way of executing a search on Google by taking your search word or phrase and putting it into a bubble and surrounding it with other relevant search results. “It’s really easy to do! First you limp to the side like your leg was broken Shakin’ and twitchin’ kinda like you was smokin’ Crazy wack funky People say ya look like M.C. Hammer on crack, Humpty…..” whoa whoa whoa!!!! sorry that’s another article lol.
The Google Wonder Wheel to me is like one BIG brainstorm. I learned to brainstorm when I was in elementary school. first you think of a word or an idea. Then you write that word or idea in the middle of a sheet of paper and circle it. This is your brain idea. When you think of a similar word or phrase to that original idea, you write it next to your brain word, circle it, and draw a line back to the brain word. You then continue to write and circle words and phrases and ideas off of each other resulting in lots and lots of new ideas. I love to brainstorm because I get so many new and creative ideas from it.
The Google Wonder wheel is just that. it takes your original search word or phrase puts it in to a visual brainstorm exactly the way I described so yo can see all the related search results and get new and creative ideas. I’ve included the diagram below so you can see for yourself how to work this thing.
Step 1. Type in your search query and search Step 2. Click “+Show Options” Step 3. Choose “Wonder Wheel” Step 4. Click on different search results to go deeper into your search-
