Okay, this is whasuup. I had this Blog on Xanga, but it didn’t get enough hits 4 me. So this is what I’ll do. I’ll move it so Condom Rappers. I’ll start it here. It’s called…

Spotlight on…

The Urban Author

Y not be selfish? Don’t worry. There are four weeks in a month and 12 months in a year. That means (um…carry the 1, multiplied by--) I will have a spotlight on almost 50 people a year! That’s like half a hundred. In years that’s five whole decades. Do you know how many different genres of music where created in half a century?

Oh! I know… We’ll interview the people. This’ll be such fun!

Urban Author: Current projects?

Urban Author: Straight to the nitty gritty. I like that. Well… Currently I’m doing a lot to get some eyes on my book. I got this blog. I’ve put some business cards in Military Circle mall… I’m also putting together some ideas for an after hours spot that I’ma be apartta in Columbus.

U. A.: Georgia?

U.A.: Ohio.

U.A.: Oh yeah—that’s right. I’ve gotten it from a crazy amount of sources that you love Columbus Ohio.

U.A.: Who?

U.A.: I can’t reveil my sources. So tell us a little about this.

U.A.: Reveal. Yeah, Columbus is like a crazy ass semi- psychotic girlfriend to me. When I’m away from her, I miss her to death, when I’m with her, I can’t stand the bitch! I dunno. Donna said that she thinks I love the fact that it has such a progressive black community, which is true…. And the diversity of people is astounding. The fact that the biggest city in Ohio has a college with one of (if not) the biggest campus in the nation-- you got a mesh of people coming from everywhere!

U.A.: *snoring*

Associate
Producer: Psst! *nudge*

U.A.: Huh—wha? Oh…um *throat clear* Yes….me too!

U.A.: Asshole.

U.A.: So, what is your infatuation with Columb—hold on… *shuffles his notes* I mean-- Okay. I hear you airbrush as well. Is that correct?

U.A.: That’s correct. You can see me in Virginia Beach working at Kozy Korner on 16th and Atlantic until November and every summer until I die. And from November 2005 until May 2006-- Damn! Can you believe it’s about to be 2006? I remember when the millennium was just a thought. I was like thirteen thinking, “I’ll be 20 yrs. old in the year 2000. I’ll be an old man. I don’t—“

U.A.: Sir. Stay on subject, please.

U.A.: Oh yeah, sorry… Um…

U.A.: You’ll be working at…

U.A.: I'll be working where?

U.A.: In November?

U.A.: Oh, at Danny’s shop in the City Center. Did I say that I was moving back to Columbus in November? Yeah, well I am. Well, hopefully I’ll be working for him. I kinda haven’t told him yet.

U.A.: You play it dangerously, don’t you? (Gawd, how much time do we have left?!)

U.A.: Dangerous Art! That’s what it’s called. Get it?

U.A.: no.

U.A.: oh.

U.A.: ….

U.A.: ….

U.A.: So, how bout them Steelers?

U.A.: PITTSBURGH! You know, after last season’s upset, I didn’t wear my Roethlisberger jersey all damn summer… But I put that bitch on just recently… What are we? 3 and 0?

U.A.: And that’s all the time we have left (thank the powers that be!) Remember to check out The Urban Author’s web blog right here. And be sure to pick up his newest book—

U.A.: Only book.

U.A.: --only book, 79 Ways 2 Die at redleadbooks.com. And like he said, you can find him airbrushing in Virginia Beach at Kozy Korner T-Shirts on 16th and Atlantic until November and in Columbus starting in November at City Center Mall.

U.A.: I’ma also be starting school at CCAD in Jan—

U.A.: It’s over. Join us next time when I will be interviewing Donna Marbury, Communications Specialist for the Ohio Chamber of Commerce.

Donna
Marbury: I’d rather you put that I was a journalist.

U.A.: Oh shit! You scared the BeJesu—Where the phuck you come from? Security!
