Float Session Volume 2

Didn't I say we would do it? All we need is the third installment now and we'll be good.

Life Lately

Hey young world. I know, it's been a while since I've dropped knowledge but life has been hectic out here on these streets (see Paid in Full), so now that I have a couple stories to tell, I might as well hit you all up.

We just had a long weekend out here at school, so as you know, we've been going fairly hard. I personally have kept it pretty low key, and my one instance of bugging out almost made myheart beat out of my chest, so I'm waiting 'til it's all out of my system before I show you who the iron lung is. But, for us the weekend starts on Friday, during class.

That's Ju Ju singing to our Spanish teacher since someone bought him a valentine's day song. really homo, but the illest way to waste time on a Friday Spanish class that no one wants to be out, even though we all love Sr. Cuchillero.

A while back, there was this percussionist lady named Evelyn Glennie who came to our school and performed. This is a snippet from what little I could sit through.

She's deaf. I'm not joking.

Then the weekend came. We played lots of Rock Band and some CoD4 (pointman gets it in), and there was a little lovefest in Vinny's bed. This is the latter half of what happened, but the real pwnage was the 60+ seconds preceding my recording. We were too busy laughing for me to think to pull out the phone, but some of the penetration still exists.

Yeah, living in a dorm will all guys gets a little homosexual, but it's all out of love....and entertainment.

On a slightly less funny note, Rock Band sent us a message when we tried to name our band "Deez Nutz". Apparently, the name isn't "classy", therefore any online play would have to be preceded by a name change, or else there would be no online play.

What's wrong with Deez Nutz?

I Love New York

I've been back home for a couple days, and until now I haven't really remembered why I love NYC so much. Then, I had a normal day, and it all came back to me. 

The day started a little past noon, when I was able to witness a new phenomenon in my house. Apparently, my cat and my mother have had an ongoing feud as to who is the queen of the household. My mother and cat love each other dearly, but also attack each other frequently. This is what happens when my cat and my mother decide to brawl on the staircase.

Then I went grocery shopping, returned, and spent the afternoon with my brother. We went to check and see if he could get a quick hack in chinatown for his psp, and we went to this arcade and watched Street Fighter 4 get played. Akuma is NICE son. Shouts to that Asian in the suit who was just WHOOPING ASS for so long. You're nice fam. You are nice. We also saw this:

Ummm....we went back uptown, and on the train instead of matching kicks I saw a woman with a bowl cut 

and it balded all around, but the hair was died blonde, and she was greying, so the bald part was growing in with streaks and it was weird as fuck. I was shocked to see it, but that's just NYC.

I also saw Paul Mooney in the Starbucks near my crib. THAT'S REAL.

Step your Float up people.

Wasted No Time

On the way back to my house last night, I saw a couple literally wearing the same pair of sneakers. I had to take a picture, so this is what you all get. I'm so ashamed of his soft body actions, especially since she was actually rocking them harder than he was. Quick guess: Which pair belongs to the male, which to the female? Answer: Since he's so soft, they both belong to the female. He also had a lip ring.



That's Friend A, who kept assuring us that she was, indeed, herself. She also showed quite a bit of resentment toward a friend of hers for not allowing her to float as much as she would have liked. I like her out of school quite a bit, not to say that i don't like her in school.

As I was walking to meet them, I saw and recorded the craziest paint job on a car I have ever seen. It was really weird stuff, and it reminded me of those crack is wack murals kinda, but my camera sucks so the car is all dark and i kinda rushed since i had people to be meeting, so this is a very raw version.



So yeah, I went out there, went to NYU, and chilled in a room with 6 girls, all of whom were a little like me at the time. It was a nice moment, although I made the conscious decision to not make moves on floated freshmen in college, although it wouldn't have been too hard seeing as I was the only guy there. The only one, for serious. Yeah, we talked, Friend B and I made sure that Friend A got in the cab, and I'm pretty sure everything is okay right now.

Oh yeah, I have another video of friend A just going on and on. Terrible vid, cuz I was multitasking at the moment it was being made, and there are other pics/vids to document the night for us all. I remember it all, but I'll bet a few of the people I was with didn't. This is yet another bad video from a floater's night out.

Late Float...

Wattup y'all, it's Thiz!

Late night.. early night for my standards..

Two things send me floating: A Tribe Called Quest and graffiti... So I'm bringing em both to you all..



One of the best moments in graff history in my book.. Skeme TNT's "Crime in the City" wholecar.. Literally changed my perspective on life when I saw it/saw this clip from "Style Wars"...



One of the best moments in hip-hop history in my book.. The opening of "The Low End Theory" entitled Excursions...

"We gotta make moves, never ever ever do we fake moves.." -Q-Tip, clearly a floater.

Quick Float

Yeah. Today was an alright day I guess. A little while ago, me and some people were in the PACC [comp center] bored as fuck since nobody has any real class tomorrow, and people started doing what they do. No provocation, no nothing, just acting like fools, as per the usual. I have a video of it for those who need to see something to make today a little bit better, although I doubt that many of you will enjoy this as much as we did.

Sharpie Action

Floating late one night.. Inspired by a DJ Premier beat, the album booklet for M.I.A's "Kala", hunger, and procrastination..

Union Square

Wattup y'all, it's Thiz!

The Clan was floating sometime this past summer in Union Square (Shouts to H. Dunn and the Octagon). We were all seriously airborne, so we figured there was nothing better to do on a floating summer night than to get lite (for those not up on it, youtube "dcole"). We hit the Square, and there were mad heads floating there already..

A crew of breakdancing Asians, some European chicks visiting the city, some hipsters, some skaters, some posers, some Free Huggers, some cops, some other dudes gettin lite, and a DJ running his speaker system off of a generator on wheels.

The Clan got the circle together and started the handclap. The DJ picked up on the vibe we were trying to start and started playing straight dance music. We were trying to get the other dudes gettin lite to battle us, but they punked out. We were going so hard that we began to gather a small crowd around us, and once the DJ cranked up his music, and the cops didn't make him turn it down, we knew that we had started a full fledged party in Union Square. Like true floaters do.

The European chicks were a little timid at first, but eventually caught on to the vibe and started floating with us. Once the DJ dropped the Electric Slide, we had a crowd of about 15-20 people with their heads and hearts in the clouds and their wrists briskly slapping towards the ground (one wife pulled her husband towards the crowd and forced him to Electric Slide with her, obviously reminiscing on floating moments they had together in the past).

As a huge game of soccer broke out alongside a nearby jump rope competition, all amongst people who were strangers to each other an hour prior. The Clan met Doofington from Brooklyn. Doofington's name was a hybrid of the words "Doofie" and "Piffington". "Doof because I'm like, big and I'm kinda doofie. -ington because you know, I got that piffington." He was clearly floating.

There was some pizza, some girl on girl action, and a couple freestyles, that I feel it necessary to share with you all.

The night came to a close and we headed back to the Octagon to finish watching the Olympics. Michael Phelps had just floated to his 8th gold medal, and we were all amped.

When you float, you can have nights like these. Start parties wherever you go.

You Don't Want That

Me, Sykes, and Lemmons were Floating in my room on a Saturday night once, just chilling. Sykes was drinking his gatorade, Lemmons was eating his mike and ikes, and I was watching my anime. This was the good life.

Then, in the corner by himself, Sykes started laughing uncontrollably. Lemmons and I were confused, and wondered what was happening, but laughter is contagious. After a while, Sykes finally got up, and started to tell story, mainly to me.

"Yo son....I was just...like....watching this movie....like in my head right.....And imagine......if me.....and you....was to just....smackthisniggaJordan'sMikeandIkeslikeCH-BLOW!!!!!"

And in the instant he finished his sentence, he put all of his speed into swinging his hand upwards and knocking the FUCK out of Jordan's Mike and Ikes. The box flew up and started rotating, so that mike and ikes literally flew all over my room. We then all proceeded to DIE laughing at what had just occured, to the point where Jordan had to leave the room because he was gonna piss in my bed, which would not have been a good look. This makes us all laugh to this day. So, I felt the need to share that moment (in part) with all of you.

I don't feel like going through the archives for music right now, so I'll share another floating moment with the bums right now. This is me, Joris, John, Yuuki, and the Legendary King Hiro (the one with the hat on) dancing to "Asagohan". Yes it's really gay, but it's a floating moment.

Floating's fun people. You should try it too.

Classroom Floating

This is me during a not so average day at Phillips Academy. Sometimes I wonder if I should even be in school, but since I'm not failing out yet, I guess I'll stay. I know Milton and Middlesex feel my pain, although they may not float like I float. Tell me if you've ever had this feeling during a test too, so maybe I won't be so lonely in the clouds.

And you might need some music right now too. I'm still in the archives for now, but I'll drop some new stuff for you once I start plugging back in to the music scene. Post December look for that new Kardi, cuz the streets need more. We will now be one of the OFFICIAL Kardi drop spots, so understand that we will have those exclusives that NOBODY else will have.

Hello World

When you wake up in the morning, and for some reason you're still smiling from last night's adventures. Or when you remember those moments that made you laugh uncontrollably, and hours, days, months later you still get the same joy. When your whole body starts feeling better, and the moment becomes more important than anything else. You blink, and suddenly how you got there doesn't matter, but the fact that you are there makes all the difference in the world. When worries disappear, and your greatest fear is forgetting how to breathe because the jokes are just too strong. When you stop paying attention to everything around you, and run into your own little world, full of all the pleasures in life. When everything is important, because nothing could possibly go wrong.

That's floating. That's the world I want to take you to, so share a few floating moments with me.

Since this is the first time around, I guess I should give something away. This is some pretty old stuff, but if you don't have it, this should help out. If you do have it, this should remind you to put it on rotation for a little while.
