I'll be filming some for my final audio project, n I'll be workin for Godfather collecting email addresses for his ELECTRO BOUNCE label... so holluur atcha guurl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dancing to ghettotech is usually done like sum pitched russian folk dance... lower body parts movement on a fokin freaked electro beat... it's called the JIT n maybe the most skilled dancer in this league is my friend STRINGZ (Haleem Rasul) from Detroit... he tours worldwide givin workshops on this artform... real impressive stuff... too bad he's on the wrong side of the atlantic ocean maaEYN that water is a BITCH... wish it wasn't sucha biggy to cross that mf... anyhow here's sum of his footwork...



STRINGZ is also a part of the crew HARDCORE DETROIT.

p.p.s. really amazed that I've got so many regular readers out there n that people check stuff I wrote ages ago... sumone recently made a comment to a really old post jus sayin "people should read this" haha... really appreciate every positive word cus there are quite sum haters out there who simply wanna eff up the joy of being EMELI PONTÉN. ain't that a pitty. make sumfin wiv yaself instead of wastin yur time hatering dat hate on a hate plate...

this is drug music

even socially accepted poisons such as alcohol will f* up your brain, your physical strength n your ability to actually achieve something... so make sure to prioritize every now n then... doin the gospel on yo wasted ass haha naah jus remember no matter what condition you're puttin yourself through, you'll be aaright as long as you learn to recognize your limits... n that is one tricky task I KNOW haha but doin your best is good enough...

c'était une soirée réussie

I really wanna go back to Paris soon... qu'est que ce passe? If I didn't have a workshop all weekend I'd def go for Questlove on the 21th, keep bookin good stuff Emmanuel... when I was there last spring I had sucha great time, totally laughin my brains out... hooked up with Naaem Juwan n some of the Andrea Crew posse at Maroussia's exhibition in Pigalle... n the rest was jus faire la fête GRAVE at a couple fashion week mingles n Le Baron... c'est plus fort que moi... jus love dat urban madness...



YLVA TU ME MANQUE!!!! KEEP PARIS POINT CHAUD 'TIL I'M THERE!!!!

I also can't wait to meet Marie, Zoe, Maroussia, Nadir, Farrah, Kirikoo n all the rest......

p.s. the suburbs of Paris commonly have a raw n rough environment which is one of the reasons why there's some seriously heavy hiphop produced in those areas... check out RAP FRANCAIS & 90BPM & 13OR-DU-HIPHOP & FRENCH RAP & ABCDRduson.

5:00pm - 10:00pm
DRAKEN
Fridhemsplan 25
Stockholm, Sweden

p.s. the other day we saw the preview of The Wackness here in sthlm (ye I know we're way behind here in Europe), n my friend maria/DECIDA's first words were "THEY DIDN'T HAVE DOORKNOCKERS IN -94!!!! IT WAS TOTALLY OUT OF STYLE BY THEN!!!!" hahaha she's really passionate about her stylin n got total fashion control... check her blog >> THE DECIDA STYLE <<

p.p.s. in the previous post I wrote about Linn as all she did was livin thugish, gotta correct that... her main thing is design and she (& Elina Bygdén) creates really extreme but still gracious street wear >> WE ARE ELJEST <<

rock on wit ya bad self

I love people here in sthlm n I especially love the women I have to say... many of us have a bold way of living that you don't usually see in the rest of the world... it inspires you n it makes it possible for anyone to push the limits without gettin that nasty talk behind your back... it should be a human right to go nuts every once n a while... so you'll stay sane when it really matters...

my top 3 inspirations right now:

LINN - this girl has "thug" tattooed in her lip (yeah seriously true) n her arms covered with them, she's got a dirty mouth, she likes to eff little boys n I totally love her... if you know swedish check her blog... HETTMA

BRANDY - my baby brandy is someone you can't possibly pass without noticing, even though you're bitchdrunk... she's in your staryeyed face with a style n personality your jealous ass won't ever possess... she writes for a blog that she shares with sum other real amazin women... ZTYLE IZ FREE

HANNA - this lady is a new aquantence of mine but I've seen her around for years, she's right on like RIGHT ON n dares anything... big inspiration... check her blog it's hilarious... YOU GO GIRL!



talkin bout dope women I brought a young mc talent to the gig with Akil the mc (of Jurassic 5)... Akil begged her to go up on stage, since there are extremely few women doin the mastering, n naturally she took the chance n totally rocked the show... being only 19 that's real mf heavy... after the gig Akil talked to me about doin a song with her, he was really impressed n so was everyone else... FARANG YOU'RE THE SHIT don't let anything come in your way now ok... the cermony was mastered aaready...

p.s. sum abnormal ish goin on in the world today... havin an afroamerican president in the states, Berlusconi (prime minister of Italy) commented it as "there'll be no problems establishing good relations with Obama since he's young, handsome n tanned..." hahahahahahahhah I have to stop now gotta go kill myself

we are a proud people a live people a lost people a beautiful people...

Mos Def checked my blog n decided to come to sthlm anyway... aaaright okey some cred to Guerilla Union/Luger/Live Nation as well... surprisingly enough he was afterpartyin all night instead of watching the election, you know being all political n conscious up in dat image >> “If I was president..." << but ye the perfect way to prepare for CHANGE is naturally partyin with some fine friends, great music, swedish women n wee... I mean water. De La Soul, Nas, Kelis and The Pharcyde were at the afterparty as well n it was some surreal shit talking to Nasir like he was an actual human being... he's not... he's made of plastic. ye for sure you can tell by his mad perfect skin. n inside of that solid cover you'll find pure braincells gettin joookin on intelligence. anyhow they were all very humble n kind, the only diva in the room being our own Elena haha love you baby... jus choose your battles...

tomorrow the 6th we'll have another great rapper in town...
AKIL THE MC of Jurassic 5

and on saturday the 8th all the way from South Africa...
TUMI AND THE VOLUME

talking about rappers I'm grateful to be one of FORM ONE's friends, an excellent swedish mc who also opened the RTB concert in sthlm... check out his new musicvideo... n see if you can spot me hehe... me n MTV-Elinor reppin the sheeemales daemn hiphop should be called manhop instead, men men men all over... ain't complainin though haha...

Form One - Away from DLX Entertainment on Vimeo.

p.s. been reading some friends thoughts concerning the political changes the world is to experience due to the newly elected president... this is a global and historical moment bigger than we might ever comprehend... I was especially touched by the blog post LEIF/Khalif put out on his myspace... n Scribe's facebook status: Ben is moved by the enormous healing moment this is, especially 4 ppl of african descent, but also 4 ppl of all "races", in this country and in the world.

If I was a proper christian I'd say Amen but WUURRD'll do jus fine.
