"That's right squallies get up on some of this smell good" (circa the year I played basketball with this ni&&a named Kier)

Ayo!

Just poppin in to say how funny it is that people will just blatantly post comments on another artist's page that basically says:

"F#@k this guy!  You were tryin' to find my sound and heard them first by accident!  I'm over here CLICK ME!"

Okay okay of course it's not that bad.  And, for most artists on myspace in the first place, the whole purpose of being on here is to reach you guys.  That logically means that, for any hungry artist, you're gonna use all means possible to get to other ears.  So:

"Hey thanks for the add.  Diggin' the music.  Check out my page and let me know what you think"
*With a little/dope/creative image or somethin'*

...is not bad at all BUT:

"WE GRINDIN' YOU BASTARDS CHECK OUT OUR PAGE!"
*Written in huge bold print above (and below) an image that takes up half of the page*

.....
is some blatant a$$ $h!t.


I was friend surfin' and noticed that this is a common thing and it made me laugh.  Think about it like this:

  You're at the merch table at a show.  You went to the show to see XYZ becuase you dig their music and you heard they have a live show.  After XYZ get's off the stage they mosey over to the table and you begin to have a short conversation with them.  Usual things like "Good sh!t man" or "yeah I heard you guys are (fill in action here)".  Everything is chill.  Then suddenly, some dude with a 10 gallon neon flashing hat bursts into your conversation honking an air horn and holding a hand full of CD's that he's merchin' off.

"This guys okay but have you heard THIS?"  He shoves the cd so close to your face that you can read the copyright paragraph.  Then he shoves an earbud into your ear, scrolls through his ipod, and plays his favorite track just loud enough for you not to be able to hear the music in the club clearly.

  No one's gonna do that in the real world but to quote Professor Eboneezer Freshens, "The internet makes heroes of us all".

Come to think of it, if I saw that guy I might actually buy a cd for the sheer funny factor. 

A'aight suckas, see you at the next AB's show.  I'll be the guy in the 11 gallon hat with tv screens playin our video and 5 air horns sewn onto the top.  Let's see how your hat matches up with that son!!!!!

I know what you're thinkin:

"Dang...these cats have a penchant for strange names...and buggery."

No we didn't rename ourselves to prepare for our healthier image.  No the boombox will not be replaced by an AbLounge.

It's the Ay Beez yall!  Fawnkiness, newness, dopeness, Lochness. Knauusayin'?

I can't go into total detail but publicly The A.B's means the "Alias Brothers".  We have a more personal meaning for it and if you ever see me on the street I'll tell you face to face.

A'aight so to sum it up:  Only 2 of the 4 members of  The AB's are even able to refer to their stomachs as abs so we couldn't in clear conscience name ourselves like that.  Although, that would be ill if  The AB's stood for "The Amazing Bellies".  My belly is pretty freakin' amazing.

Say it with me when we're in your town:

"The Ay Beez!"

"The Ay Beez!"

"The Ay Beez!"

"The Ay Beez!"

I, ROBOT AUTHOR'S ESTATE CHALLENGES HIP-HOP ROOKIES OF THE YEAR FOR NAME


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


May 22nd, 2006 (Jacksonville, FL) -
In what reads like a classic Hollywood drama, 2005's newcomers of the year Asamov are announcing that the estate of science-fiction author Issac Asimov are challenging the four man group from Jacksonville, Florida for the rights to the name "Asamov." A cease and desists order was issued by Asimov's estate in January to the group's management, distributor, and label 6 Hole Records. This caused new retail orders of the group's award winning debut album And Now not to be shipped for months causing a scarcity of the record across the country as well as awkward questions from concerned fans.


Resolving the dispute, an out of court settlement is being announced today as well, but will require the up-and-comers to change their name of five years from Asamov to "The AB's". The settlement avoids costly litigation for the group and its label and ultimately begins a new chapter in their careers which have been on a steady up-hill trek. In conjunction with the name change, The AB's have reportedly recorded a new album set for an early Fall release which speaks directly on both the name change and their rise into the Hip-Hop spotlight while staying true to their funky, soulful roots.


Recently, The ABs have become underground media darlings winning critical praise for their Golden Era beats and rhymes exhibited on "And Now..." The group has been featured on Myspace Music, named "Top 10 Hip-Hop Groups To Watch 2006" by The Boston Globe, and just this month were named to URB NEXT 100 list. The group also wrapped up headlining their first national tour called the Video Trapped The Rapper Tour with Percee P, Tableek and others...
