Assault with a Deadlee Weapon  So I have been feeling like the Michael Douglas character in the movie, FALLING DOWN. I am very testy, and short on patience. I get frustrated with people and their fucked up ways. I went to a Food Market in downtown LA a few weekends past. I had company including two rappers who I am mentoring/managing. As I entered the parking structure for the market, I saw that parking would be validated for one hour with a stamped ticket. That seemed easy enough, and after we ordered our Tortas, I had the cashier stamp the ticket. We downed our food and made it back to the car with time to spare. We start to drive out and get to the parking ticket booth. I handed the man the stamped ticket and waited for the bar to raise up. The ticket man looked at the ticket and told me I would have to pay. I looked at my cell phone and we still had time under the hour to spare? He said that the ticket was stamped but I failed to take it to the front desk to get a second stamp. A second stamp? WTF? - I told him I stamped the ticket as the sign said, and saw no further directions of a second stamp. He told me I would have to pull to the side and go get the second stamp. I had company remember, so I am trying to be on my best behavior. I told him I didn't want to go all the way up 3 levels for a second stamp, as we had a sound check to get to. He did not budge-- I was not going to budge-- the entire time biting my tougue as to not make a scene for my guests. The tension was rising, cars behind me were now 4 deep. This was a stand -off for the ages. I finally blew my lid, I could not take it anymore! I began shaking violently and stared him deep into his soul--"OPEN IT OPEN IT OPEN IT AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" With that violent out burst he raised the bar and I screeched off!! The company were laughing hysterically, and I felt justified. Now tell me why the man would really give a fuck about a second stamp -- oh I know he has a job to do-- but cmon! Why does the city add such dumb fuck rules. A second fucken stamp? WTF is that about? I had another parking incident yesterday, when the GNC store did not validate my ticket. They claimed they were out of stamps, so I went to the McDonalds in the same Mall to get a stamp-- they said I would have to go to the B of A. I went to the Bank, but the lady claimed she would not get me a stamp because I would have to take money out the teller, and she saw I went to Mc Donalds. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh The ticket man tells me GNC does not buy stamps, so I would have to pay. The price was 3 bucks for every 15 minutes. It was now like 25 minutes. WHYYYYYYYYYy is it so difficult to step out my fucken house to get vitamins, or a fucken Torta? Why so many rules on top of rules. I am getting to the point were I will be just be a hermit, I do not have the patience to deal with all this bullshit!! Shit is about to FALL DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dayum it's been a minute! I been so into the Pinche Myspace and my own blog at www.deadlee.com , I have ignored livejournal. I figured what better time than January 1st 2009 to return. I am feeling that good things are around the corner. I posted a flyer for a new show I am presenting at Highways Performance Space www.highwaysperformance.org . I thought it would be a good idea to get things rolling quick in the 2009. I am a procrastinator and really need projects and deadlines to keep me on my toes. So these are some goals of mine for 2009. 1) Acting is on the top of my list - I have signed with an Acting Management Team in hopes of getting auditions to higher profile gigs. I got my first lead in 2008 with Hoochie Mamma Drama http://anotherdeadleeblog.typepad.com/ho 2) I have been involved with LIL MILO MANAGEMENT, and this is a high priority. I love helping new talent reach for their dreams. http://www.myspace.com/LILMILOMANAGEMENT I have plans to make this a big success along with my Manager, Camilo! 3) I am about to release a cd with my best homie, Down Low along with our own Record Label- http://www.clydenclyde.com/ I also have a solo project on the front burner working with a new Kat from Germany doing production! I also want to work on my personal self. Be a better son, friend, and boyfriend. I need to go back to the gym and lose about 20 pounds. Ok enuff of the New Years Resolutions - I got to get to work to achieve them - I am out!  http://www.outhiphop.com/street-cred-101/ It was 1992 and I was still fresh to LA - I was a huge Howard Stern fan , listening to him religiously. Howard and his team of zannies were coming to LA to celebrate their first place finish in the ratings. There was a live telecast off Hollywood and Vine and of course I went. I was in a crowd of a few thousand in awe of my idol. It was already a great week since earlier that weekend I met MR. T and he wished me luck with my rap aspirations. So here I was watching my other idol - Howard Stern and to my amazement his guest that day was my idol #3 EAZY E!!! I stood and watched and told myself that one day I was gonna be on the radio with Howard Stern. Eazy E finished his interview and worked his way through the crowd and stood directly in front of me. I met my rap God face to face and shook his hand! I was one of the last to stay waiting to see Howard leave by limo. I ran like a crazy fan after the limo and Howard rolled down his window and waived one last time as I screamed his name!! Lets fast forward to March 2007 - I was just interviewed by CNN and went on a trip to Mexico with my Mom. I had no idea the CNN interview would be the catalyst to more opportunities. One of these opportunities was a letter from Howard Sterns producer requesting me as a guest. My manager off hand-idly told me - " you want to do the Howard Stern show?'" He had no clue what that meant to me - and 3 months later June 7th, 2007 I was in the NYC to be on Howard Stern. I achieved my goal I set years earlier. Of course we all know Eazy E has since passed RIP . - but here I was carrying the hip hop torch. I took fellow gay rapper, SOCE and my spiritual advisor Khalil Amani with me. We entered the building with a camera in my face and questions thrown at me. " Deadlee, how does it feel to be on Howard?" It was so surreal - here it was my dream and when you are actually living it- its hard to explain. I felt sad in away - but I think I was so happy I wanted to cry kinda thing. When it was time for me to actually enter the studio - my heart was pounding. One of the producers lead me in the golden doors. I think i just entered my heaven!! BAM!! right in front of me behind his mic was HOWARD!!! He looked to Robin Quivers his cohost and said my name- "Robin- here he is Deadlee" - I could not believe he said my name- I sat down on the couch and I think it was all a haze -the show went well. Howard asked a lot of questions about me coming out, who I'd fuck on his team of zannies - and of course played a sexual game where I had to see some of his staffs penis and ball sacks ha ha - When the interview was over - is when I was the happiest I have ever been! Howard told me before I left that he supported all i am doing and wished me luck - and Robin gave me a big hug - all his staff expressed how cool it was to meet me - I did a few aftershow interviews with his Sirius news team and left the building. So, where do I go from here? I set a goal after meeting my three idols that week that I would be a rapper and I would be on Howard Stern. I guess I set the bar higher - and keep pressing on. While i was in NYC i recorded a song and video with fellow rapper, SOCE. the theme seemed very appropriate as it is called "LOOKING BACK " with a refrain GO AHEAD!!! I think it is always important to look back at what you went through and always go ahead to the next challenges in life - so the next goal may be MTV awards - magazine covers, Grammy's - ?? I might even set the bar higher, as I see it's possible to achieve your wildest dreams and goals!! HAD A BLAST DOIN THIS VIDEO WHEN I WENT TO NYC!! ENRIQUE IS TOO COOL FOR DOING THAT - HE IS DOWN FOR HIS GAY FANS TOO! |
