    ZS Awards 2007: The Year End List (No Imus)

    Written by Zillzâ„¢ on December 31st, 2007 in Events, ZS Awards 2007, Zilla Says

    You really don’t know how long it took me to write this out. I did this for you! I had to listen to albums all over again, rethink the thoughts, then I realized that it was Dec. 31st. I had to put the finish the touches. At first I was going to break it down over the year, but it wasn’t going to work. So I put it in one big massa portion. Well I hope you’ve all had a great year, and hope that you have another great year ahead. If I had to give you a piece of advice for the new year it would be this: Do not sell yourself short. Do not let anybody tell you that you cannot do what you want. It’s never too late. Take your destiny in your hands. Never stop learning. Expose yourself to everything. And teach the youth so generations will learn. Love one another. Never hate. It’s what Martin Luther King, Jr. wanted us ALL to do.

    After saying all of that, I will see you in ‘08. I’ma be drunk from now ’til the tomorrow morning. Peace bidges.

    Wait There's More

    RIAA Now Says It’s Unlawful To Copy Your Legally Purchased CD To Public Accessible Folders

    Written by Zillzâ„¢ on December 30th, 2007 in News

    Amazing.

    …the industry maintains that it is illegal for someone who has legally purchased a CD to transfer that music into his computer.

    The industry’s lawyer in the case, Ira Schwartz, argues in a brief filed earlier this month that the MP3 files Howell made on his computer from legally bought CDs are “unauthorized copies” of copyrighted recordings.

    The RIAA’s legal crusade against its customers is a classic example of an old media company clinging to a business model that has collapsed. Four years of a failed strategy has only “created a whole market of people who specifically look to buy independent goods so as not to deal with the big record companies,” Beckerman says. “Every problem they’re trying to solve is worse now than when they started.”

    The industry “will continue to bring lawsuits” against those who “ignore years of warnings,” RIAA spokesman Jonathan Lamy said in a statement. “It’s not our first choice, but it’s a necessary part of the equation. There are consequences for breaking the law.” And, perhaps, for firing up your computer.

    That third section that is in bold, is the straight truth.

    Music: Little Brother - “Step It Up” [ Sleepy Grocery Mix ]

    Written by Zillzâ„¢ on December 29th, 2007 in Music

    It’s Day 7! And LB not only gives you another mix from the Getback files, but also some advice when dealing with the opposite sex.

    Ladies and Gentlemen, Phonte Coleman:

    Tek sent us this one with Dion’s hook already in it, so there wasn’t much to add save for the additional harmonies I sang during the last hook and the ‘baby do you want a massage’ part. Honestly at first, me and Pooh didn’t think too much of the song after we did it, but after playin it for countless people who swore it was THEE jam, we decided to keep it. (Further proof that artists are very often the worst critics when it comes to judging their work…)

    With this one, I wanted to make a song that talked about the growing pains of dating and trying to find someone. Everybody goes crazy over the massage line, but the one part in the song that sticks out most to me is Pooh’s, ‘everybody gettin judged by who they standin with’ joint. That shit is real on SO many levels. When you’re in a relationship, its no longer about you and is moreso about “y’all.” Everything your mate does is a reflection of you and vice versa, so once you learn to discern between the ‘bitches’ and the ‘B’s’ you should handle with care and elevate your way of thinking, imo…

    Also, a word of advice to my ladies out there: Unless you trynna make a sexy time (c)Borat, don’t let your first date with a guy be at his house (or yours, for that matter). To him, it means you trynna fuck. The ’sit on the couch and watch movies which leads to dry humping and an eventual 4AM smash’ date is mostly for niggas in college and women of the vertical leapoff variety. If you really want a man to take you seriously, ask him to take you out.

    Now fellas, understand that when a woman asks you to take her out it ain’t gotta be on no standard ‘dinner and a movie’ steez (*yawn*) Nor do you gotta act all Raphael Saditty and be braingin a satchel of rose petals with shea butter and oils and shit. This is your opportunity to bring her into your world and see what she’s really all about. Its never about spending a bunch of money, so much as its about being fun, creative, and imaginative. Offer to take her go cart riding, or miniature golfing, or to take a stroll thew the park swaingin pankies together and feedin the ducks at the pond. If she refuses any of these activities without coming up with a viable alternative, chances are she’s boring and/or lazy as hell and will always be looking for you to entertain her. A woman like this, while physically attractive, can’t offer you much beyond a slice of pussywaffle and has probably spent many years coasting off her looks…..sad, but true…

    The word for today is pussywaffle folks. That’s some realness Phonte was speaking. Alot of these people (men and women) are just boring and hate theirselves. People, if you ask a person of the opposite sex what is one of his/her favorite hobbies and she says “going out to eat”. Cut the conversation. That person has never been anywhere, doesn’t want to go anywhere and will kill your wallet unless you’re going to Golden Corral or something. But don’t take him/her there. Save your money.

    How the hell is FEEDING YOUR DAMN SELF a hobby? Okay I spazzed.
