The re-recording/re-release of Sincerely, Jacobo is here and finished. Yea, it's a week later than I expected, still I think it turned out pretty good. The download is free; So take a listen if you've never heard it and even if you have, it sounds better this time around I think.
Sincerely, Jacobo
P.S. Yes, I'm still working on the LP and you can expect at least one more EP to drop in the meantime before it's finished.

Mas On The Newness Like CHEA!
Well here we go again, with some more stuff for you. I'll break this up into 2 sections, my music news and then things I feel like telling you. Shall we begin?
Ish I Wanna Tell You:
GO OUT AND BUY Royce Da 5'9's album "Street Hop". Hip Hop album of the YEAR(yea, I said it!)
If you haven't seen "This Is It" what are you waiting for? It's out NOW, go peep! Vocally MJ owns, Human Nature is definitely the highlight vocally as you could probably infer from the previews.
If you wanna eat like a baller on a budget, Wendy's is the answer! 2 doublestacks, 5 pc nuggets, fries, & drink for slightly over $5. Get it while it lasts.
My Music News:
Ok, so I've got a few things coming up soon. Over the last 6 months I've been simultaneously working on Jacobo Is Horny (FREE download here if you haven't heard it yet), another EP that has yet to be named, and finally I've been re-recording Sincerely, Jacobo. The re-release of Sincerely, Jacobo will probably drop before the end of November. It's one of my favorite releases and I figured about 5 months back that it deserved some new life. So be on the lookout for that in the meantime. The other untitled EP is almost done, waiting on some fellows MC's to help flesh out the last song with their verses. All in good time I suppose. That's all for now.
Peaceness!

Check It!
Here's the rundown, since its been a while.
WTF Sizzler?!?!?!? No more cheese toast!?!?!?!? I went about 3 weeks back and they gave me GARLIC BREAD!!! MOTHERFUCKIN GARLIC BREAD!!!! Needless to say I was not pleased. Luckily, since I used to work at Sizzler I do know the recipe for the cheese toast. I suppose I'll have to begin making it at home for myself now.
I wish I could comment on "The Big Carl" and tell you how it compares to the "Big Mac" but since they still haven't gone back to the old fries, I still haven't been back to their establishment.
Oh, hey. Morgan Spurlock is still a douche.
Ok, Kanye is too.
Those of you who follow me on twitter know I have a penchant for making ice cream runs to Thrifty's at the weirdest hours of the night. That no longer happens. Apparently the Rite-Aid by my house which has the Thrifty's ice cream shop inside is no longer a 24 hour venue and is now closed by 11pm. My heart and stomach continue to weep.
Let's see, what else? Oh!
FUCK SCHOOL! This shit is just eating up all my time. I'm trying to get the music done as quickly and efficiently as possible, so just bear with me.
So with that said here's the agenda:
Gonna drop the Jacobo Is Horny EP next week on September 22.
So, make sure to keep your eye out for that.
Gonna drop ANOTHER EP. No title yet, but you can expect that sometime in mid to late November. A few surprises, collab wise will be on it.
Other than that just constantly recording whenever I get the chance. Still trying to put the full length album together and it's coming along at a nice and steady pace. So we'll see what happens with that.
Till next week. Peaceness!

Oh Jeez...
So I've been MIA for a while on the blog tip. I suppose you can blame twitter for that. I seem to be wasting all my best material on there. Take a peep if you care too, Jacobo on Twitter. I'm here though with some news to bring of sorts. First off I hope you've been enjoying the demo for "Sweatin To The Beat". You can expect to hear the final version on Jacobo Is Horny when it drops sometime in the middle of July. I'm still workin on one final song for it which I think will be worth this extended wait we've all had to endure with the EP along the way.
Also I've realized how my multi-tasking has begun to wear me down a bit. Workin on Jacobo Is Horny along with My Mom Thinks Cool and simultaneously gathering tracks for the On The Promo Tip EP (which you can get here for FREE) has caused a burn out of sorts for me.
Ok, things you should know......
Fight From Above's music video is officially the video of the week on KROQ's website so take a gander there or peep it right here
Disney has decided to finally drop a REAL animated movie in the same vein as Aladdin, Beauty & The Beast etc. instead of their usual as of late Pixar garbage. Peep the trailer here.
The final season of the Gilmore Girls has finally come to ABC Family so now my love affair with the absolutely stunning Alexis Bledel can continue.
See, I don't lie.
Lastly,everyone needs to STOP ducking Shane Mosley. Manny Pacquiao is a bitch for choosing to fight Cotto instead of Shane. If you wanna prove you're the man then you go and fight the man.
Anyways I'm off to make another run to Thrifty's for some ice cream.
Till next time.....

Where Do I Begin?
So much has gone down in so little time.
Fuck the music updates for right now because something else is bugging me. If you peeped the status on here a while ago, you saw the TRAVESTY that was the Food Network's Best Burger list. I really don't care about what was said for the other states because I don't live there so I can't speak on the accuracy. What I can say though is that the pick for California was COMPLETE and UTTER BULLSHIT of the worst kind.
The Double Double?
Seriously?
If only it was that big right side up.
This undersized and overpriced piece of shit is the BEST California has to offer?
I think not, so wise up douchebags at the Food Network. I'm going to school you. This may not be the best burger in ALL of California but there's no two ways about it, it is BETTER.
Begin to understand.
That is a man's burger. A man's meal. Notice how the size is NOT deceiving. Order a double double and tell me if it's as big as it looks in the picture once it's in your hands. Order yourself a double cheeseburger from Tommy's and when you get it out of the wrapper it is a massive sight to behold.
The next thing that disturbs me about this choice that the Food Network has had the gall to make is that In N Out NEVER makes a WELL DONE burger. In the 6 times I've eaten there in my life, every single burger has been PINK with a tiny RED center. Hamburgers aren't supposed to look like that. Never has a restaurant's name so accurately described it's products' life cycle.
Oh one more thing........ your fries suck.

Feeling bueno
So I just wanted to bring you guys up to speed on some ish. Since I've got a couple of things in the mix.
Re-recorded Sincerely Jacobo over the last week and a half. It's basically at perfection now. 8 tracks in it's new and current form and not one you'd wanna skip from the start to finish. Since this one is very dear to me, I wanna keep the run pretty small for it. So I'm thinking of getting something like 25-50 copies pressed up. If you want to purchase one bring your funds to a show sometime next month.
Which reminds me, show this Monday on 4/20 over at the Airliner. It's being hosted by Room342. The lineup that night is gonna be cracking and you can check all that out under the shows section of my page.
Ahhh hang on. I gotta pee.......................
..........
..........
..........
Ok. Anyways, Jacobo Is Horny is still on the way and it should be ready around the same as the reissue of Sincerely Jacobo. What I really wanted to talk about right now though is that for the next couple of blogs I'm gonna try a little experiment and post the blogs here and over at the new blogspot ish I just got. Well I suppose if you're reading this on blogspot then you can just skip the next paragraph.
Right now it's got a few of my favorite blogs from the past year. Reese's Cookies, Morgan Spurlock is a douche, and let's re-enact the Scotch scene from Mrs.Doubtfire. So I'll be droppin the link to that for a while along with posting it up here.
There's a bunch of useful links there that relate to me, if you're interested like my:
Twitter
YouTube
Facebook
and so on....
So there we have it. Oh and can someone tell me what the fuck happened to the french fry section of my Banquet Chicken Fingers tv dinner? All I ever seem to find now are the ones with that bland mac n cheese in place of the fries.
Till next time, Peaceness!

Time To Throw Down!
So I dunno if you noticed or even cared, but I've been lagging on the blog tip like big time homeskillets. With that said I felt it was time to come back with a vengeance for all my dagglies, doogles, homeskillets, peeplies and fans. So let's get it on!
First order of business, as always.......
THE ALBUM - I suppose I should bring you up to speed as best I can as to what's been going down in the past 3 months or so. At this moment in time I have over 80 tracks for the album and I've been trying to come up with a cohesive track list for it. The problem with that is.....I've created 2 distinctly separate sounding albums. Befuddled with this problem I took the initiative to cherry pick the best from each playlist and form then into one new merged playlist. The result you ask? CHAOS and EXTREME RANDOMNESS. It was at that point, that I decided to work on some tracks to make the musical transitions and differing styles less blatant and more subdued. The new result? My Mom Thinks I'm Cool, so be on the look out. I'm dropping this bad boy in May, if all goes according to plan.
Next order of business on the rude block. Get ready to have multiple ear-gasms reapeatedly. The Lost Arts album is coming very soon. Yes, I know I say this pretty much everytime; but I can say without a doubt, that at this moment in time we have approximately 14 tracks or so to work with. So get ready new tracks will be going up on the page soon.
Also, and I'm sidetracking a bit here....I just want to say that Crush by David Archuleta has been stuck in my head for about 3 weeks or so now,. Basically ever since he was on iCarly. Anyways that song is ill; FUCK YOU, if you don't agree. I have a thing for songs with syllable elongation, I can't explain it, I just do.
Ok so back to where I was...the last couple of things you need to know is:
Writing while buzzed is the ISHMON
Karaoke is the answer to all the problems in world
Scotch is best! Ask Mr. Lundy or Daniel Hillard, they'll set you straight.
And finally, show at the Airliner on Tuesday, March 24th, 2009. BE THERE! I'm going to rock a dope set, we shall catch up, have drinks together and re-enact this scene:
