F_CK GREYHOUND...

Not really hip-hop related, but sorta. It's beef!

Being that J-Zone hates flying and his car is not to be trusted for any trips beyond the tri-state area, he's been dubbed "The Greyhound Warrior" in the last few months. Yup, this rap star rides the bus. Recent shows in VA, NC and MD are too far to drive and to close to fly, so he's been carpooling and using the good old Greyhound bus. Yeah, for $52 you can get around in those areas while sitting next to the big, 2 seat using, greasy bitch eatin a sandwich that gets mayonnaise on your shirt by accident or the dude with Xactly (see the latest album for definition) on his breath that loves to talk politics. Better yet, the dude that's gangbangin and throwin up gang signs to another passenger. Then there's the rude ticket agents, bad overpriced food at the stations and the 3 hour layovers during transfers. But all that is indicative in the cheap price of travel and therefore you just deal with it.

But then there's this situation. The bus is at a rest stop in VA, an hour from and enroute to Richmond, for a 10 minute break (what the driver said). After 2 minutes, Zone decides to stretch his bad knee and take a piss, so he gets off the bus. 2 minutes later, he comes out the bathroom to discover the bus just took off, with all his shit still on board. He unsuccessfully chases the bus 4 blocks, further injuring his bad knee and now realizes he got 4 shows and 4 days ahead of him with no clothes, no merch...no shit! Just a cel phone, wallet (at least he had those) and a bag of Jet Blu Airlines' brand of animal crackers. The sight of the bus pulling away was equivalent to watching your ex girl take your ATM card and go shop for her new man while you're handcuffed to the bed. Long story short, he got LUCKY and the promoters in VA met the bus in Richmond and got his luggage and he got a lift to the venue from somebody related to the opening act that happened to be in that city.

Everything worked out, but we must use this platform to rob Greyhound of as much future revenue and business as humanly possible on principle. We hate em so much that we will promote cruelty to the actual greyhound animal. Fuck y'all, fuck y'all, fuck y'all...next time, we gonna bite the cost and roll to all shows in limos, regardless of location. Thanks to those that came out to those 4 shows and made the drama worthwhile. Now back to the rap news...


MO IGN'ANT

J-Zone has begun work on a compilation of the type of music found on his highly demanded but hard to find Ign'ant Mix CD's. No release date yet, but the work has begun. If all goes as planned, the compilation will be 100% legit (meaning all songs officially licensed from theire respective owners and available everywhere with legitimate packaging). Still in the baby stages, we'll keep ya'll posted. Until then you can anticipate the re-release of Zone's Ign'ant Mix CD (Volume 2) in the next few months. Previously, it was only available via purchase of his A Job Ain't Nuthin but Work album via sandboxautomatic.com, on the Sleazy Listening European Tour, Sound Library (NYC) or on your favorite download sites. Stay tuned...


I SWEAR, IT WASN'T ME!

I guess the mentioning of this a few updates back failed to reach everybody. After more e-mails concerning a J-Zone myspace.com page that somebody is neglecting, I'll clarify this again. I'VE NEVER HAD A MY SPACE PAGE, NOW OR EVER!!!!!! Apparently somebody thinks my life is cool enough to pose as me! Sorry to bust your bubble homes, but if you're gonna pose as a music person, try Nelly or John Legend so you can at least pull some hoes! The name J-Zone will do nothing for you but get you crazy psycho bitches and angry feminists with bats at your front door. Y'all know I got dial-up on my Grandmama's phone line, so I try to just check my e-mail and order a few thangs from eBay and get offline before she starts bitchin about her friends not bein able to get through! So once again for the people in the back...THE PERSON WITH THE J-ZONE PAGE ON MY SPACE AIN'T ME! We have an impersonator in the building. This paragraph will stay posted on this New Ish page until I stop getting asked why I don't respond to my myspace page or why I responded the way I did, hahaha.

Sorry for the thin update. There's a lot poppin off at the Old Maid Man$ion, but we're waiting on confirmation before we pop off at the mouth. Stay tuned...
