Where Has All the Time Gone?

Back in May on a hot boring spring night I was laying on the couch watching, "Sleepless In Seattle" while I snuggled up to 10 piece family meal from KFC, and after I ate all the mac n cheese and potatoes in gravy mixed with the buttered biscuits, I found myself passed out in a 3 month diabetic comma... And I don't even have diabetes.

All jokes aside, I know I've been a lil M.I.A. these past few months and I just wanted to take the time to apologies. While I've been go I've been working on a new album, Stand Alone, I've been planning Desert Ego's first official album, and I've also been working on other small projects like my blog...

Did GOD Mess Up And Make 2?

Is it just me... I think I'm seeing double! I'm setting on my coach flipping channels when I stumble across that horrible Stallone movie, Judge Dredd, and at that moment, the antagonist "Rico" flashes across the screen in a fight scene filed with steroids, saggy skin, Geritol and bad acting. I was like holy sh!t is that Michael Lohan?

I've recently seen a lot of Michael Lohan on the new season of Celebrity Rehab lately, and It looked like his busted broke down, zombified, drug induced coma looking @ss, but I never heard of him acting before... but I guess it could be possible since his daughter, Lindsay Lohan, is one. May be he just wasn't successful like Angelina Jolies dad, Jon Voight. So I jumped on IMDB to research who is the actor that played the roll of "RICO" and to my shock it wasn't Michael Lohan... It was Armand Assante. Check it out for yourself, Michael is on the left and Armand is on the right. Hit me up and tell me what you think... Do they look a like?

Captain America

Is a must see movie.... PERIOD!!!
It's not just for jobless 37 year olds who live in their mom's basement for free, and spends most of their time at the local comic book store playing "Dungeons and Dragons" and arguing with 12 year olds over who would win in a fight between The Incredible Hulk and the Amazing Spiderman. It's amazing to see the efforts and quality that is being put into comic book movies these days. They are becoming more than the typical deranged manic trying to take over the world with a twisted plot of infiltrating and raping every bank in the city with a platoon of goons dressed in pink spandex welding advance technology while a cape crusader saves the day. Marvel comics lead the way with their new stream of movies, perfectly blending with imagination, relevance and an organic feel.

And all the superhero movies leading up to the formation of The Avengers such as Ironman, Hulk and Thor have been impressive, but I was floored by this new Captain America movie. Everything about it was perfect. They modernized Cap just enough that they didn't tarnish his golden age look at the same time preserving the essence of the original series.Before I get into Captain America's movie I have to say, I'm so happy that comic book movies are no longer out of shape actors in their pajamas jumping around to a soundtrack of horrible suspense noises and porn music, but to tell you the truth it kind of P!sses me off that some many people are jumping on the comicbook bandwagon because as a kid I had to hide my lust for comic books from the kids at school like my older brother hid his playboys from our mom. Get caught with a comic book in your backpack and any popularity you had up to that point would be lost and you'd be labeled a geek, and your sit at the cool table would no longer be available... Completely outcasted!!! So sorry if you are one jumping on, but now I feel better.

Back to Captain America, with out spoiling too much. I'm happy to be able to inform you that this movie follows the storyline of the original comic almost to the "T." Even in the present, Captain was found in ice after 70 years of being M.I.A; however, as you've probably scene on the previews there has been a major change to Cap's uniform, but it is a refreshing update and moderation of the suit without making it cheesy. Speaking of not being cheesy... The Red Skull looks phenomenal. I expected an actor running around with a horrible red mask that look like a kids failed science project, but I got an authentic looking and believable Red Skull. Lastly with out ruining the rest of the movie, all I can say is... Go see Captain America!

I give it 5 Stars Up

Taking All The Wine Out Of The House

Today, Scrolling across facebook I came across a hilarious quote that caught me off guard, "I'm drinking because Amy Winehouse died." Is this a joke? I'm a have to research this... Yeap unfortunately no matter how much humor is behind it, I found conformation on TMZ's website. Amy Winehouse died today at the age of 27 from saving an orphan baby seal stuck on a shrinking glacier from a pod of killer whales.... HAHAHAHA if you believe that you're so naive. Here let me give you a big hint

The unofficial word is that Amy Winehouse died of an overdose. Her body was found in her London home this morning. They'll be performing an autopsy today and we'll have an official report of cause of death. I'm setting here listening to her song "Rehab." It has a catchy tone, but it's such a serious statement that was so easy to overlook.

All though I'm not a huge Amy Winehouse fan, I assume that thousands of toothless addicts, drug trafficers and Dr Drew are in morning, and I know Amy's lifestyle was degenerating, but it still sadden me to see someone prematurely pass away especially so talented. Amy's talents were out weighted by her excessive lust for heavy drugs. It was almost as if I knew this day would come after finding horrible "Coked out" pictures of her looking like a morbid zombie floating around the internet that would put 28 Days Later combined with Resident Evil to shame. I hope Amy has finally found peace with all her demons. I also hope people out there battling their own demons might learn from her mistakes. My sorrows go out to her love ones.... Yeah, believe or not she is someone's daughter!

Once again count your blessing. What is your reaction to Amy's passing?

Friends With Benefits

I hate to admit it but Justin Timberlakes and Mila Kunis new movie "Friends With Benefits" was an amazing movie. I'm that guy that walks past Harkins Theatre that has seen every freaking movie on their list, so I'm trying something new. Ok... just like every other husband/boy friend out there, I was dragged out to the movies tonight by the woman I love to watch another mushy romance movie. Basically in my eyes "Friends With Benefits" was the same movie as "No Strings Attached," and too be honest... I went into the movie thinking I knew exactly how it would begin, climax and end, and yes, unfortunately, I was right. It is the same old love story; however, to my surprise what makes this movie stand out is how they tell it. No Spoilers, but I'll tell you I spent the entire time laughing hysterically out loud and that the beautiful Mila's semi nude body made the movie very easy to enjoy, and in addition Justin is developing into a great actor.

I'm going to end by saying to my friends if you want to make some serious brownie points with your girl while not boring the sh!t out of yourself or girls if you want to firm your abs by laughing your butt off while out for ladies night, purchase some tickets for "Friends With Benefits" and get ready to enjoy the night.

Gotta Get Plugged.

I'm so Hellas tired of my Skull Candies breaking on me. Everywhere I go, you can catch me mobbing my Skullcandies glued to my earlobes blasting tunes thru my iPod or Evo. Seriously... I live music. Its part of my everyday routine from being an artist to being a fan. When I'm working, cleaning, chillin or even fading off to land of dreams, I gotta have my music, and since I'm not rude by intruding my addition of good tunes on everyone else, its very important that I have properly functioning earplugs.

This morning I throw my latest addition of Skullcandies in right before I start mobbing. Halfway thru my day to my disappointment they go out on me for no reason. I wasn't bending, turning, stretching or even vigorously jogging when my skullcandies decide to take a dump on me. I'm not going to lie, I love Skullcandies vivid sound but I'm so tired of them going out on me for no damn apparent reason.

Does anyone know of some other fresh and affordable plugs?

PS I just picked up some new earbuds I found called Ozones, so far they are alright, but it appears one side is louder than the other side.

Good morning! Thank God its Friday

Love Is Amazing

Love is amazing. When you see your "better half" on the other end of a table of friends and she still gives you butterflies, you are truly blessed. Tonight my spouse and I went out with a group of friends for some "adult beverages" and we happened to sit on opposites of the table from each other as we surrounded ourselves in the appropriate gendered conversations when I noticed my heart vigorously beating in my own infatuation as I was watching all of her mannerisms like a sociopathic stalker with "Hungry Eyes". It made me sit back and think... Man, I'm such a luck man.

Is it just me or have you ever felt this way?

Rising Like A Hot Air Balloon

Flammable as hydrogen filled zepplin and quickly rising like the temperature in Yuma Arizona, Desert Ego is a rock rap group comprised of several completely different individuals and their music is clash of different genres. A lil bit of rock... A lil bit of punk... A lil bit of grunge... and a sh!t load of rap. They base their music around down to Earth topics and real life situations that most people can relate to at sometime. I've attached a clip featuring lead singers Kenjo and Xanax perfoming their track "Can't Hold Me Down" live on Track 74

My Singing Could Break Glass...

And not in a good way either. My singing can make birds drop dead out of the sky, whales ram into glaciers in desperation of making the pain go way, and In a time when "T-Pain'in" on a track with excessive Autotuning is not only completely abused but also ridiculed worse than a creepy @ss Michael Jackson trying to convince a minor in to sleeping in same bed as him, my non singing @ss is working on a track with a hook that needs to be sung, so YO... I need a dope MALE RNB SINGER. Know any down for collaborating. I'm not just talking about your brother's best friends nephew name Pookie who just got of prison on a 10 year bid for stealing his grandmothers laundry money so he could buy a can of paint to huff.

What I mean is I need a good singer... A singer that's as good as Michael Jackson himself when he wasn't wearing a diaper and spreading peanut butter on Bubble's back in Neverland... I'm not talking about just any MJ, but MJ with the wide nose, nappy hair and dark skin... You when He still had soul.

"I want to rock with you.... All night, Dance you into the sunlight"

"Cause this is thriller, thriller night. And no one's gonna save you from the beast about strike"

The track I'm working on is called, "Moments Like This." I don't want to reveal too much about the track but it's based on the moment you realize you're falling in love. I personally think this song has a lot of potential especially if the hook is done right. Right now I have a rough version of the song with me singing. I'd share it but I don't want to be sued for people's sudden hearing loss.

Once again.... Do you know of any talented male RNB singers thats whiling to colab on a great track?

I Claim Independence!!!

I wish I could claim independence from my job but still get a pay check every 2 weeks... Lol! If you can wrap your mind around it, imagine just the thought of that.... You walk into your boss's office and slam a sheet of paper on the desk claiming independence from his/her confined reach of abusing you like an underpaid Mexican National slaving in the U.S. agriculture fields while still receiving your biweekly paycheck. It would be like retiring, but before your life is plagued with multiple health issues. Man, that would be awesome... stick it to the tyrant that drags your day time fun into the dirt, get payed like a con artist with a fraudulent insurance claim and still be able to chill all day by the pool sipping on pena colada!

All jokes aside I just wanted to drop a Happy independence day wish on ya and also salute the arm force for preserving our freedom. Man, I love our country!!! OORAH

BangerMGT 2.0!! I'm lookin for HOT new trax, artists 4 features and listener song request... So get at me

$100 Parking

Ridiculous... Are you serious do people really pay $100 for parking. These people should be ashamed of their selves trying to profiting off the 4th of July weekend. The family and I drive out to San Diego just to find out when we arrive there people want to exploit the sh!t out of our needs. When you think of San Diego or just plan California what is the first thing that comes to mind? The beach right!? Well I no different. The first thing the family I do is head straight to one of our favorite restaurants on the beach, Firehouse.

The streets were packed with cars crammed in parking spots. It was so bad that I have no idea how they would get out. We searched high and low for our very own parking spot with every time coming up short. The one thing abundant was locals holding up signs saying, "Parking All Day... $100."

Honestly, would you seriously pay $100 just to park one day by the beach?

Wow.... It went from being 120 degrees to 100mph wind. now there's an actually sand storm. It looks like the trees are going

My last

My last
First of the first this is my last
I'm a bout to drop out a head of the class. a dying king of a long lost breed

Never again will I write another damn song. It hasn't even started but it feels too long. I love rapping but tired of the right and wrongs. The more that I write just prolongs. My pain.

I'm too grown for this shit to play This kid games when you wanna hear that fire spit call my name.

Almost Vaporized

Holy sh!t... It's hot outside. I almost vaporised out there but Im still enjoying the heat.

Man, I'm up here at work dried up, dehydrated, and working like a slave. All I need is some Jesus sandal and a loincloth and I'd fit right in with slaves that built the great pyramids. I walked outside at 8am this morning and its already 90 degrees. The sun just barely came out. My job requires me to travel from site to site and the distances are so short from each other that my d@mn A/C never gets a chance to completely kick in before I'm already shutting it down. I live in the desert. We only have 1 season... HOT and HOTTER!!!

I don't know why but I jump on the local weather channel to see if it'll ever cool down, and come to find out its a major heat wave going on. New york 106... Vagina 105... Michigan... 98 and so on. A few states even got it worse! They not only have to deal with the heat but there also getting rain on top of that, do they are hot and muggy. It makes me step back and appreciate the dry Sonoran Desert I live it. Question... Do you think this is signs of the end of the world in 2012?

Words With Friends

Hey if you play Words with friends hit me up... KENJOL
Just a couple days ago I was going thru my normal day of texting 3,000 times to all my p!ssed off friends for blasting there phones with text messages filled with empty content when... No Lie, my cheapo phone I've been cling on to for that last 2 1/2 years finally crapped out on me.I remember it so vividly, it went something like this my thumbs were smoking from hitting my phones buttons at approximately 45 buttons per second, so I slid my phone in my pocket to give my solder thumbs a cool down. I probably made 2 steps before I was flooded with replies. I immediately pull back out my phone to respond when it decided to display Russian. I had no clue my phone could translate to any language especially Russian.

I'm a notorious butt dialer, so I just figured that my phone bouncing around in my pocket changed a few settings.... NOPE!!! Long story short the m***** f***** decided to reverse very thing so I was forced to run down to my service provider for a new phone. Well to my enjoyment I picked up a new EVO and for the first time I have a smart phone. I've been on the internet non stop. I'm glad I'm able to say I'm no longer texting the crap out of people. Now I'm just hooked on "Words With Friends". I play it in the shower... I play it at work.... I play it cooking... I play it driving, OK wait that's a bit much, but I do play the crap out of it, so if you want an exciting game of words hit me up @ KENJOL.

By the way I'm horrible at it.... HAHAHAHA

We Over Look It Everyday

Good morning. its a beautiful day the sun is shining theres a breeze and the best part is we still living. YES... I said we are still living! I wake up to my mundane life after hitting the snooze but a million time before I stagger out of bed. I contemplate calling in sick so I can snuggle back up in my bed before I take that conscience leap towards my day. I sip on my usual coffee with the same amount of sugar and cream just to get myself going. I slip into boring clothes with no imagination just because it fits. No expression, no Imagination, and no excitement for life. Unfortunately you probably feel the same way and if you do we are guilty of wasting something so precious... LIFE!!!

We never think about it and WE OVER LOOK IT EVERYDAY that we are so blessed not only to have a life to live but also to have our health. Every second of the day there are tons of people losing their lives for many different reasons. Some sick... Some accidents... Some planned... Some overdosed and the list goes on and on. I know what your thinking, but thats not me. I'm healthy, cautious, not suicidal, and I don't do drugs. Neither do I; however, the reality of it all is that we are not guaranteed tomorrow. In a blink of an eye it can all be gone tomorrow.

Remember Anthony Acosta story


SO... I'm going to stop over looking the blessing I have in life and start enjoying the small things like each breath I take. The biggest blessing I'm going grab on to and hug promising to never let go is my family. Life isn't boring and half empty. Its exciting and half full. Think about it this way... You only have on life to live. Take advantage of it. Pursue the things you love. Jump out of planes... Make music.... Start a company or whatever your heart desires just no regrets and never look back.

Be a kid at heart again. Run... Splash... Frolic in life like its a river. Kids make the best of everything no matter what they are doing. They can spend ours playing with legos, dolls and even a plain deck of cards with out getting bored. If they don't have those to play with, they'll still come up with a game to play like hide and seek.

Question... When did we as an adults lose our imagination?
