A little Inspiration

I Love watches and It's known that It's the most important accessory in a man's wardrobe. I don't have mine yet but I'm working on it. I want that Rolex, but a Breitling will hold me for now. My Co-Worker handed me his Breitling SuperOcean Chrono a couple weeks ago, below is a picture of It. He does that from time to time. He's a connoisseur of timepieces. When ever he say's the word movement, I laugh but I take him serious, this an knows his watches. The cheapest watch he owns is the one he works out in and thats a Polar.

Obama Newspapers/ The Rap World Conversation


Some papers that I bought. This is History I want my Children to see this, and Grandchildren.

I got home from work at about 2:30 am. I went to the Newsstand around the same time. I wanted to know when those Newspapers were coming in. The guy in the store told me at about 5:30-6:00 am. So I told him I'll be back. I went home and started messing around with the computer and my Turntables. I even watched a little Television until the early morning. The first papers I got was the New York Post and the Newsday. I waited for the Daily News and The New York Times until some later hours. I was done getting all my papers at about 9:00 am. I've seen it all in between the time that I was waiting for the paper and by the time I left. The clerk in the store was pushing papers like Crack. He started charging people anywhere between $5.00-10.00 per paper. People were going ballistic. He charged one guy $5.00 each for the Post and Daily News. The guy made himself a Coffee in the store and said "He's not paying for it, call the Cops and tell them. I don't care" It was hilarious. I've seen hundreds of people come in for the paper(s) this morning. From old to young, Black, Hispanic, White.

I got the chance to build a little bit with several people. A young man that lived about a block away from me, we had a great conversation about 90's Hip-Hop to what's going on right now. Another Brother a little bit older than us got in the conversation too, while messing with his Lottery scratch offs and waiting for his paper. The Thesis was that Music from that Golden Age was critiqued on a different level. Everything had to be hot, It was so much competition. It just forced all those Emcees of the time to be creative. No one ever used someone else's techniques to do recordings in terms of plug-ins and effects. More stories were told. The beats moved you to the point that you would rewind a song about 4-5 times in a row and that was a cassette tape. Styles were original. Even clothing was original. I miss that time in Rap, that's what I fell in Love with, the assortment of greatness. I seen Rap change and go in a different direction through the years, things have been more glamorous. Video girls getting more shine in magazines than the rappers on the tracks. I Like rap music from the East, West, and South. I should call out some names, but I'll save the specifics for a different post. Music that's out now isn't bad, It's just a different time and generation. The Internet has really took over that sector. There are still less great albums coming out every year and less honorable mentions. But that's what people like now a days. So to each its own. It's a business first and foremost. The Label executives put records out to make money and Artist do it to make money. I'm not paying there bills and there lavish lifestyles, I'm just a passionate ear listening to get a fix of sonic melodic quality. I understand recording techniques because I was trained in that area. So I know good recordings and bad ones. There are ways to make people sound good. From Vintage Microphones to Vacuum tube channel strips and following the basic principles in capturing a great recording. Get a good take and don't try to fix It in the post. Technology is vastly improving every year. So I guess more and more people are going to try to record. As a listener you just go differentiate what you like and what you want to hear.

BARACK is Living History

Patrick King aka dj Paul Kersey

It's a new day in Washington D.C. and for the rest of the United States of America. Mr. Barack Obama took his oath today and gave his Inauguration speech. He is the Official 44th President of the United States. I never taught I would see this day. I recorded it to DVR and this is going to be one of the first things I archive to some type of media. I was touched and even had some uncontrollable moisture in my eyes while watching him take his oath. Mr. President I know you have an arduous job ahead of you. Me and the other citizens in the country will have to do our part to rectify the situation. If Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was around he would of been very proud to see this moment. You definitely made part of his Dream come true. You also gave a lot of minorities like myself hope, that anything is possible with hard work. A line that my mother had remember from the time when I was a little boy probably no more than 8 years old, was from President John F. Kennedy January 20, 1961 Inaugural speech "ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country". That Quote has been in my head for years. I always took it as take initiative and don't wait for things. On that note be sure to check out the new White House website If you haven't already done so. Take a look at the agenda.

NOTORIOUS the movie


As a Brooklyn representative to the fullest I had to check out the "Notorious" movie directed by George Tillman Jr. Starring Rapper Gravy aka Jamal Woolard as The Notorious B.I.G. and Derek Luke as P.Diddy. In my Personal opinion I thought the movie was really good. It showed the Life and times of the Late Great Brooklyn rapper Christopher Wallace. From his young days as a kid watching the older kids to the days as a man taking care of his family. I don't want to ruin it for anyone that hasn't saw the movie as of yet. But It's highly recommended If you were a Biggie Smalls fan. The Soundtrack was also great, It had to be someone like Puff behind this movie to articulate all the little details that were in this movie, all the way down to the old NYPD RMP cars that rolled up on Big in the movie. The details all the way down to the clothing and cars is what really helped in addition to the acting and strong supporting cast. Naturi Naughton as Lil' Kim and Antonique Smith as Faith Evans did a really good job. I don't want to say to much more right now. Go check the movie out where CROOKLYN at? I'm waiting for the DVD because this is a Classic.
