Get off ur asses and do something!!

My worst fears are starting to come true. The Indian Govt is sitting on the issue of LTTE-SL war going on right now. This is something that will bring grave consequences to India. I'll tell you why.

Tamil nationalism was something that was brought about by the birth of the Dravidar Kazhagam(DK) headed by E.V.R(Periyar) in the 70s. This was Self-Respect movement swept across Tamilnadu making youngsters hate "hindi" and everything perceived as "anti tamil". This sense of nationalism continued during C.N.Anna Durai and the young M.Karunanidhi in the Dravida Munetra Kazhagam(DMK). However, Karunanidhi is only a sympathiser to the Tamil Eelam cause. His contemporary MGR, actually funded the LTTE as their startup rag tag guerilla force in 1983.

This tamil nationalism grew leaps and folds. Some even going on to say Tamil Nadu needs to secede from the union of India. All these elements were silenced with the killing of Rajiv Gandhi in 1991. The LTTE were branded terrorists and supporting them openly meant supporting anti-nationalism.

Till 2006, the pro-LTTE stance was taken by very few people. Vaiko was the first to "morally" support the LTTE, for which he spent 2 years behind bars. Thirumavalavan is also actively providing moral support for the tamil cause in SL.

With the rise of Eelam War IV or the Water War, the tamil nationalism card is being played by all political parties. This was witnessed today, as a resoultion condemning the SL Govt was passed in the TN assembly.

From my own personal experiences of interacting with various college youth, young professionals, lawyers, tamil news media, I see a new sympathy for the LTTE emerging. Something like the Hezbollah in Lebanon. The SL army destroyed almost everything in their way. The world media is slowly showing both sides of the story. A lot of people in TN support the tamil cause if not directly feel sorry for the LTTE.

The Indian Govt has chosen to remain mum. They havent condemned the attrocities of the SL govt. Nor have they said anything about the peace process which lays in tatters. The more time they sit on it, the more the tamil sentiments are starting to flare.

I ask this of the Indian govt. IF you were facing such a situation as the tamils in SL, would you keep quiet? If innocent people are being murdered, if a whole community is being denied voting rights, denied right to exist, would you sit on it? I see a spark of extremism igniting in TN. There are so many people who feel let down by the role the Indian Govt has chosen to take. And they still have the IPKF fiasco in mind. The war crime where Indian soldiers of non-tamil origin raped, killed innocent Tamils and Sri Lankans. A big mistake for which Rajiv Gandhi paid with his life...

The lasting solution in SL can only be acheived with active involvement from India. Only India knows about the sensitivities of the Tamil people as it shares a region' common history, culture and language. The more this war goes on and the more the tamil civilians killed, it is bad news for India. If you found this post, extreme, think again. I am only analyzing it from all angles. Much different to some of the tamil newspapers here who are outright crying fowl of New Delhi.

My worst fear of the start of a rebellion (albeit political) in TN is growing day by day. The faster New Delhi acts, the better for India. For a sovereign, free, independent India to survive, it needs to adress the concerns of all its peoples. The growing tensions in SL prove that New Delhi perceives the war in SL will not affect India. Think again Mr.Singh, we lost one prime minister over the SL war. Act now to stop this madness.

Pattiyal Poga Poga Lyrics

DISS-CLAIMER:
I'm reserving the right to publish these lyrics online. Coz I spent 20 mins of my valuable time typing this damn thing. No website's is allowed to copy paste this stuff without mentioning my name or a link to this site. Those not followin the norms gonna get sued in Cyber Court! Serious.

I know I've not been posting that frequent, but c'mon maan. No1 in the whole wide tamil rap fan world has deciphered these lyrics yet. I took a little hiatus from writing n mcing for sometime, still you guys havent still written the lyrics for this song n put it up somewhere. I was expecting some dude to atleast have the tamil verses so that my job was made easier. Anyways, I bring u the rap lyrics as well the whole deal from Pattiyal. This song is song by some south-accent rapper with a nice flow. I dont got comments on that but Yuvan Shankar's fell off with his latest Vallavaan. Posts on that coming up later. And readers who get here thro google, pardon me if my tamil lyrics are partly wrong. If any changes have to be made, buzz me.

On the whole, this is a decent rap. Better than the unbearable Prem Gangai Amaran a.k.a Prem G shit we been fed with. PremG, if u're reading this, please! Stop!!!! We deserve someone better to rep the kollywood rap game. Now its not out of jealousy or hate or anything of that sort, jus that his "b-o-y boy..boy inna payyan" type of verses are outrageous to any hip hop head. I mean after hearing the likes of Eminem and the rest, even Blaaze, PremG is like a baby in terms of his lyrical content. Enuff said. Adios n until next time, this is the Big N signing out.

Poga Poga - Pattiyal:

Rap Verse:
yo i know a lotta y'all wouldnt expect it

now check the next hit i set trends on stage
when u devoid of ur age u copy my patience

rock sampling like a rock band

The KING is back

Yup! Eminem is back to doing what he does best. Sending a crowd of, hold ur breath, black(african american for the politically correct) fans crazy n shocked to see the beleagured, battered, divorced and over-weight Marshall Bruce Mathers III back in action at the BET Awards 2006.

This is a clip of the Touch It remix from Bussa Bus' Big Bang. Eminem dropped a verse n i was like "DAMN!!!!". I bring u the lyrics too. Enjoy! Oh n one more thing. He's gonna make a comeback. And he's set the ball rolling!!

Here are the lyrics to Touch It remix ft Eminem.

As I combine all the juices from my mind,
heal up, reel up, bring it back, come rewind,
powerful impact BOOM on the track, CONTACT , (SHADY),
guess who's back!
Everybody in the place take a look at the face,
I disapear without a trace, took a little hiatus,
new year, ooo yeah, who's here, new plans, new gear , screw kim !
I'm about to scream at the top of my lungs and
I don't even know what I'm screaming ARRGH HA HA HA HA
And I'm screaming on the wrong part of the song,
Bus you did it again let's turn it up more!
Let's turn it up loud, and I'm no weakling!
And I don't even know what the chorus is saying!

5 Reasons Aamir Khan can't SHUT UP!!

The most interesting person I've come across in recent times is Mr.Aamir Khan. He's had 2 movies since Lagaan (which was like 5 yrs ago). He's acted in RDB, the biggest piece of trash being hailed as a classic and contemporary film. He's run his mouth more than once, at venues he has no business in the first place. He's had a hush-hush failed marriage, escapade with his current wife under the media's glare. He's what I would call, a publicity machine of this decade. Even if he scratches his balls, it makes the headlines. Why? Coz he's the cool, right thinking, in-your-face "teenage" role model your mom will want you to be /your mom will want you to marry.

Aamir Khan is now on my growing list of frowning hippies, anti-establishment "activists". The others in this distinguished list include Arundhati Roy, Medha Patkar and the likes. However, this isnt a personal tirade against any of the aforementioned. Anyone who thinks so, your imagination is running wild.

Coming back, aaaah.. Yes. 5 Reasons Aamir Khan can't SHUT UP!!

1. He's growing old and grumpy. He's woken up to the fact that he cant continue to make a living out of acting after some more years. He ain't the Big B who still does heroic roles in his own sweet way.

2. His personal life was in shambles and everything happened under the media hype, RDB helped hide some of that. Now, he has to move on to his next movie. So what does he do, he pulls a stunt like this to create more hype and publicity for "Fanaa", which takes the limelight away from Kajol (making a superb comeback). That ways he hogs centerstage.

3. He wants to ensure his acting career doesnt undergo "complete destruction" which for my local readers is what "Fanaa" means. So the more press he gets, the better it is.

4. Refer the first 2 lines. He's not having any movies to act in nowdays. Looks like he's on his way to finding an alternative career.

5. The girls love him. The guys admire him. Rang De Basanti rubbed off on all the "jelly" minds of young India. It wont last for long as someone else will grab his place. Make hay while the sun shines is what Jr.King Khan is thinking.

At the outset, I thought of writing 10 reasons. But everything seems to be coming back to one. "Cheap Publicity". So for all you movie stars out there, get your ass and support some hippie cult. You're stars will start to shine. Long live democracy!!

Game, Set & Match!! MK

And as usual, my vote went a waste. Although, Congrats to MK & Family for stealing victory from JJ's feet. I hope I dont get lynched by e-dmk supporters. But what the heck, this is democracy! Hip Hip Hurrah!!!

Battleground Set! FIGHT!!

ADMK+ or DMK+, democracy will speak. And so will I. Muhahahahaha!!!!!

Whoever wins, people are gonna be fooled yet again. But get your butt out and vote tommorow. Coz you cant complain abt shit until next time you get the chance to vote.

Eat My SHORTS!

I'm a LEGAL adult now. *French* the free world!

Ouch!

I'm a regular reader of this CNN IBN website which is supposed to be "India's first interactive news site". Brilliant! Just because they have comments enabled on most of their news, it becomes "interactive". However, I do have my thoughts on it.

Maybe its just my high-headedness or sumthin, most of their news content sucks. In their showbiz column, in a news report, they had spelt "Obie Trice" as "Obi Trice". Obviously, being a hiphop head, I commented sayin "Get ur facts right". Voila! Its comment moderated. Just like this blog. And the nincompoop never published my comment. Sad. Its not as interactive as I thought.

Anyways, most of their live news also sucks bigtime with most of them reporting wrongly, frequently changing facts. Rajdeep Sardesai has failed to live up to the hype. However, NDTV has not cashed in on the oppurtunity and in fact suck even more nowdays when it comes to reporting live. RS is being missed in the "Big Fight". Everyone's running for their piece of Gandhi.(Scroll down).

Coming back, http://www.ibnlive.com is really a farce. They got videos that run at snails pace on a broadband connection. They got a heavily moderated "interactive" comments section. Hundreds of Google Ad Sense Ads. Journos blogging for the heck of it. Some good. Some really pathetic. But hey, most of the people visiting the place seem to lap it up. I hate it. My hate for it can also be attributed to the fact that idiots seem to comment on hiphop topics and get it published whereas, I, someone who's followed it for 7 years and read up on almost everything in its history, dont get to make myself heard with a "democratic" comment. Perhaps they dont like criticism. Bunch of scaredy cats.

After reading my CNN-IBN bashing for the past 3 mins, I'll give you an excerpt I got from Chika's Blog there (Mr.Krishnamachari Srikkanth). This is a true "Ouch" moment.

Ulhas Shirke : Robin Uthappa reminds us of Kris Shrikanth of 1983. He has found his place in the Indian team at the most crucial time, when the selectors were on the look out for an opener, who would play aggressively as an opener like a typical one day player. he fitted into this category, with his superb performance. This boy will be very useful for the 2007 world cup. a perfect one day player. ( Posted: Saturday , April 15, 2006 at 23:02 )

----->>> ulhas - please dont compare robin uthappa with srikanth. robin is a far better and dashing batsman than srikanth and also robin is a responsible player. ( Posted by sneha on Saturday , April 15, 2006 at 23:13 )

HAHAHAHAHAHA! Dont belive the mod actually allowed that! These guys make me wanna rub **** on their.....naaah. I'll save that for later. So till next time, this is the big N signing out.

P.S : Where does Gandhi exist nowdays???? Think..

R.I.P Proof a.k.a DeShaun Holton

"They say the good die young........"

DeShaun Holton (October 2, 1975 – April 11, 2006)

On April 11, 2006, Proof suffered a fatal gunshot wound to the head at approximately 4:30am EDT (08:30 UTC) following an argument at the CCC Club — where Proof had begun his career years earlier — on 8 Mile Road in Detroit, Michigan. He was then taken by private vehicle to St. John Conner Creek, an outpatient treatment site, and was pronounced dead on arrival shortly thereafter. According to reports, Holton died instantly. Another man, Kevin McLaughlin, who was shot along with Proof, is in critical condition at the same hospital.

Police have no suspects in the shooting, but McLaughlin's family members claim that Proof was the one who shot him before being shot himself.

On April 12, 2006, Mario Etheridge, 28, of Detroit was taken police custody after turning himself in. Mario was a bouncer at the C.C.C. Club where Proof was shot. "Police said he is a cousin of Keith Bender Jr., the bouncer who was allegedly shot by Proof during the fight." The fight that started inside the club is reported to be over a pool game. The argument was taken outside where "A shot was fired in the air, Proof allegedly pistol-whipped Bender, knocked him to the ground and then shot him. Etheridge then allegedly open fire on the rapper, striking him four times in the head and chest. " Etheridge is a cousin of Keith Bender Jr., the bouncer who was allegedly shot by Proof during the fight."

Official police reports state that Proof fired the first bullet at Keith Bender, 35, another person at the club, hitting him in the head and leaving him in critical condition. Following Proof's death, rapper Snoop Dogg called on fellow musicians to unite, describing the incident as "a loss to the hip-hop community".

Proof was known as Eminem's longtime right hand man. Known for his freestyle ability, the Detroit emcee also served as Slim's hype man during concerts.

Proof's untimely death has overwhelmed his friends, fans, his peers in the music industry and Detroit residents who loved his friendly demeanor.

"I've seen him everywhere," said Kimani Journery, a local promoter who along with other fans had gathered out of the Triple C club to pay respect. "He was just real. He was no problem starter. He was just love."

"He never made it seem like he was better than anybody else" added Linette Knight, a close of friend of Proof's. "He stayed humble, he never forget where he came from. It feels like somebody just punched a hole in the atmosphere and just left it there. There is a giant void here. It hit me hard just because I knew him before he got to where he was. It's a loss...a big loss."

Proof is survived by wife Sharonda, sons DeShaun Rice and Elija Abel, and daughter Katieva Walker.

Whats all the fuss about

Disclaimer : This post is written for its sheer satirical nature and is intented to poke fun at people who I think act funny. You may have your views about it. Good. We respect each other's views and move on as the World's Greatest Democracy.

Medha Patkar is fasting for the 8th day straight. So, Why should everyone give a damn? I'll tell you why. Since the death of Gandhi, we haven't had someone to call a "peaceful" fighter. The BJP, Shiv Sena n their likes beat the crap out of anyone who comes their way. The Congress does shitty submissive stuff like pulling a political stunt out of resignations n take the so called moral high ground.

Medha Patkar is the only hippie who's had the guts to belive in something and actually pull of a big stunt like this. By holding a whole government to ransom, using her cult following n news-hungry channels, she's trying to do the impossible. MAKING THE GOVERMENT ACT PEACFULLY ON A CONTROVERSIAL ISSUE

Ground Reality : Sardar Sarovar dam was built. So many villages submerged. Govt of India rehabilitated them. The Narmada Bachao Andolan tried its best to stop them from doing anything. As usual, it fell on deaf ears. Now, they're gonna increase the height again. More villages are going to get submerged. Medha Patkar goes on a hunger strike to make the government promise proper rehab n stop increase of height. She's fighting for her life n gaining sympathy. Thus making a mockery of what we call democracy.

The greatest thing about governments anywhere in the world, is to push policy thro the backdoor and face the wrath rather than openly debate on it, maybe abandoning it at the end. That is seen as a failure of the government. Major political gimmicks later, you may see the government falling. All these, no government will be willing to bring upon themselves. So wat do they do? Slyly push controversial stuff thro.

Like the Ordinance for office of profit, inter-linking of rivers and several such disputes. Some fail. Some succeed.

Coming back to the hippies. Medha Patkar, Arundhati Roy and other hippies sitting on a hunger strike can even starve to death. The goverment will NOT give a damn. Govt will only lower their offers to something like a better rehab package. The dam height will be raised. This is money we're talking about. In the face of Capitalistic invasion of India, Patkar n her cult can't do much to fight for the aam-aadmi. The aam-aadmi must learn to fight for him/herself n work his living out. If he/she can't, then join a cult like the aforementioned.

What we see now is a total failure on the part of the Legislative, Judiciary and all the netas to solve an issue concerning the people of India. Also, its a shame that hippies like Patkar are encouraged to continue such facades and wasting their time when their voices will continue to be supressed. All of them have lost touch with reality.

As I conclude, I do wish Medha Patkar and her cult all the very best in their efforts to try changing the attitudes of the goverment. If she does succeed, it is dangerous. For every tom and harry neta turned hippie will start going on hunger-strikes and hold a nation to emotional blackmail. Bottomline, both Patkar and the Govt should end up as losers.

Long Live Gandhi (on rupee notes).
Long live democracy (the very fact she's not been put into jail or made to focibly eat is inspiring enough)
Long live such cults (they make news channels strike a chord wid public emotionally)

P.S : If you're fuming after reading this, this democracy in the 21st Century man. Wake UP!!
