@RoryQ - man, your back is looking amazing! I could look at it all day... (no homo... ok maybe a little ;) ) How has it been doing one day on, one day recovery, then another session? By the looks of it your not going on to the butt?

aaaaaaaaah sheeeeeeeeeit! we can't have some jazzy numbers in this thread without this ;) (P.s the jazzmatazz series where/are dope.)

@Ursula - the funniest thing is since yesterday I have pretty much been constantly going "doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo doodle doo do". anytime, anywhere, for no reason in particular. BUT it has encouraged other people to do the same, and at Uni today I had a line of people doo-doo-ing behind me ;) (by line I mean 3 other people but it was still pretty darn funny)

we must all continue getting work to keep this on the top of the first page

Well if thats how it has to be, then thats how it has to be. I'd change it if I could but... you know ;)

p.s I SPIT HOT FIYAH! ;) & when Dylan starts choking Wyclef "YOUR TO CLOSE MAN!"

I also love the sketch where he's all "what if i had become a rapper" and it cuts to him as a goat centaur rapping hahahaha

When he drops into the 'pan-pipe solo' while walking around in circles... I loose my shit every time. (Maybe we need a Dave Chappelle thread?) AND i just realised the clip you posted @Ursula is the extended version?? Is that on the extras on the season 2 DVD? (asks the guy that owns it himself lol, I'll go check)

In about 6 weeks I will be traveling back to Japan to complete my sleeve and although there are some amazing Tattooers here in Australia (especially in my hometown) I thought it'd be cool to have at least one piece done by a Japanese Tattooer.

It started off as a one point while on a holiday, and then figured it may as well be completed by the same artist. Once its finished, I'll have travelled approximately... 45,000kms (27963 miles) and 3 trips for one sleeve lol. I probably could have been a bit more efficient with time but eh, its just how its worked out and each trip has been amazing so no complaints here.

And I intend to make a trip to the SFO convention one of these years ;)

More from Horitsune II

@irezumi - apologies, I forgot to post who the artist was but this is by Horitsune II

And just incase anyone forgot who the 5 best rappers of all time where ;)

inspired by @Ursula ;) I'd almost forgotten how dope Ice Cube was... And adding George Clinton to pretty much anything is going to make it the shit.

(sorry but I had to ;) actually I'm not sorry, shit was ill when I was 7)

@Jaycel Adkins - Oh Shit! How have I/anyone else not dropped any Talib, Mos or Black Star until now??!! SACRILEGE! ;) And The Roots for that matter. Sometimes I wish we could hit 'Like' more lol.

^^ I realise its the same track but sheeeeeeeeeeit, Mos kills it.

Thought this was probably as good a place as any to put this ;)

I definitely get 'nervous anticipation' when waiting for my next appointment. Part of it is I'm excited, part of it is not looking forward to the pain (mostly because of decent size sessions and at the moment going 2 days in a row) AND because I have to wait 6 weeks to have my sleeve finished ;)

Oh, and because this sleeve is being done in japan, I don't really 'like' flying as such, but love traveling so that sort of trumps any fears.

But the conversation (the "zen" thing is not my style)

I honestly prefer to be chatting and shooting the shit when being tattooed - it makes it easier for me to get my mind off the pain... However, I've had to embrace the 'zen' way of thinking recently (the whole having only very basic Japanese skills can be a bitch)

@ThaliaCamille - how is your arm coming along? very keen to see what Rachi throws down!

He also talks some non-sence about "freehanding" everything

Capt. I think he was only talking about 'freehanding' the Maori/Polynesian work that he does?

(Funny thing for me is, the guy who has the second palm tattoo Dan is a good friend of mine and great tattooer from Westside Tattoo - Professional Services - Brisbane, Australia | Facebook )

@Ursula - Kris Kross went on to release 2, possibly 3 other albums after their debut... but all where nothing to write home about ;)

@David Flores YES!. Outkasts earlier stuff was amazing. And in honor of that ;)

A lil somethin from NYC

And some shit from the bay area that I grew up on ;)

^^ we supported tha Liks when they came out a few years ago and we got Tash to do this ILL freestyle for a mix tape that was never released. IF i can somehow get a copy out the studio I'll post it for y'all
