We all know of Barack Obama’s humble beginnings sweeping the floor at a diner in Hill Valley… but who knew that his decision to run for the highest office in the land was inspired by a time traveling skateboarder wearing a life preserver?

# 18 - Overdose on Life Feat Travis and Drake Prod By Omen
Inspiration: Drake’s verse, Success, Omen’s production.
Omen sent this beat and I was honestly perplexed. I didn’t write my verse till I heard Drake’s. I knew I had to step my shit up. And boy did I. Then I heard Travis verse. I was like Uh Oh. Then the hook came in… Game Over…
# 19 - Jumanji Feat Nakim, Nymesis, Charlie Clips, Smoke, Curtains Prod By H
Inspiration: Spirit of Competition
H made the beat and Steve-O initially wanted this to be a start off record to a rap crew named Jumanji. But due to schedules this was the only record we recorded. I rewrote my verse cause it was so much competition and pressure. Everybody killed.
# 20 - Live Water Feat Lauryn Hill
Inspiration: Lauryn’s words, Past relationship, H20, Love
I wrote this record about a special someone in my life at one point. I compared what we shared to the one thing every living organism needs to survive… Water. The outcome still has females dripping…
# 21 - Good Money Prod by 9th Wonder
Inspiration: The root of all evil, Steve-O
Alotta people don’t realize how lyrical I can get because I dropped The Supra Song. So initially Steve-O wanted me to rap over a Madlib beat. Nothing against it, but I aint like it. Then 9th Wonder sends over the beat. This was a record I felt needed to be heard by the people. I broke down different concepts of how the Almighty Dollar is interpreted.
# 22 - Naturally Feat Jade
Inspiration: Jazz, My song Automatic
Whitebone found this Jazz sample one day. I heard it and said Wow, I’d love Jade to sing over this. So I arranged for her to sing over it and me to rap over it. The outcome was crazy. It also gave awareness to Jade.
# 23 - Rockin N Rollin Prod by Precize
Inspiration: Lyricism
This record was created by accident. Precize stumbled upon the beat. Me and Steve-O came up with the hook on the spot. I freestyled to it on Youtube in a Suede Blazer and look where its taken me. Ha!
# 24 - 6 Letter Word Prod by Jet Audio
Inspiration: Racism, Nas’s album title, Steve-O
Steve-O says one day, “We need to stop saying the word: N*gga.” I was like word, I don’t say it anyway. He said well write a song about it and let the people know your true feelings on it. I did and that’s how that song came about. I feel I got my point across with it.
# 25 - Machine Gun Ft Portishead
Inspiration: Violence in the world, Pain, Steve-O
When I heard the beat I was fucked up. When I heard the first verse I was more fucked up. When I read the title, I was sold. I decided to take the lives of 3 people and show how Machine Guns shaped their worlds. I had the first verse written then Steve-O said come back and write about George Bush Jr being a Machine Gun. Crazy… Alotta people love this song.
# 26 - Rockin N Rollin Remix Feat The Cool Kids Prod by IllFonics
Inspiration: Rock & Roll, The Cool Kids, IllFonics
The IllFonics felt we needed a lil more edge to the already popular song. They took it and went crazy. I still listen to it and make the ugly face. Lol.
# 27 - Incredible
Inspiration: A milli, Lyricism
Wow. I wrote the song heading to Virginia. It was supposed to be Leak #25. It was supposed to have Nicki Minaj on it with me. It was supposed to be Sebastians big break record in the States. Instead I turned it into the underground ‘Amilli’.
# 28 - Keep Moving Ft Fresh Daily
Inspiration: Jazz, Lyricism, Fresh Daily
I saw Fresh Daily perform this at Knitting Factory and I was like Word?!?!. The beat was crazy. It fit into what I was doing. His flow was crazy. So I reached out to Consequence to get on it. No avail. Reached out to Talib. No avail. But it was perfect with me and Fresh. That’s Whitebone acting a fool in the beginning.
# 29 - Africa Ft D’angelo
Inspiration: The motherland, D’angelo’s words, Joy & Pain
One of my favorite D’angelo Records ever. This song evokes emotion. I was compelled to talk about something positive and that’s what this record was. Almost sent me to Gabon… Almost
# 30 - We Ain’t Ft Tanya Morgan & Keys Of Life Ft Robin Thicke
Inspiration: Tanya Morgan, Robin Thicke, Skin Color, Racism, Hate, Steve-O
Honestly, this Leak was stressful. We didn’t have a Leak. Lol. So Tanya Morgan had sent something over to us to do that week for their project and I decided to take a Robin Thicke sample and get busy. Resulting in 2 leaks. Von Pee went off on We Ain’t.
# 31 - Sublime Prod by Precize
Inspiration: Spirit of Competition, Steve-O
Ha… Steve came up with a concept of sending subliminals at my homies that’s making noise in the industry. Not to gain a buzz either. Just to show that its a competition and at the end of the day its all love and we can get over shit. No hate. All love. This record wasn’t a diss song. Steve to this day says I shoulda said something about myself. But the reality of it is if u never had a problem with me, the record wouldn’t affect you. It ruffled feathers and to those it did everything is cool. No love lost… Hopefully
# 32 - Going Nowhere Prod by Precize
Inspiration: Music, Money, Kyle Connaro, Ricardo Santiago
During leak #29 we decided we wanted the fans to be apart of The Leak. So we made fans pick concepts for me to rap about. We got some crazy ones. But two of em stuck out. Rap about being a dollar bill passed thru the hands of different individuals and rap about being a Vinyl, Cd and Mp3. Ingenius. Precize made the beat skip to bring the second topic in. Wild!!!
# 33 - The Rush Ft Smoke Dza Prod by Ibe
Inspiration: The Rush, Steve-O, Life
Ibe had this beat that was just insane. It gave you that ugly face when you listen. I brung my old buddy Smoke Dza to wild out with me on it. We was in the studio and Steve-O started freestyling saying: “I’m feeling like”. I was like ooooh shit! So we talked about the different rushes people had and I how we felt like at that time. Inspirational like a mufucka!
# 34 - The Inspiration Prod by Black Friday
Inspiration: Everything!
I had soooo much on my mind when I wrote this. I had wrote it to Lost on Coldplays album but according to Steve it wasn’t “Inspiring” enough. He wanted me to go off and let all of my anger out. Talk about everything. Good and bad. So for 9 minutes. I wrote and wrote and wrote about what was inspiring. Classic.
#35 - Swahililand Ft Jesse Boykins & Cocoa Sarai
Inspiration: Saint, Langston Hughes, Jesse & Cocoa’s vocals, Ahmad Jamal
Initially Talib was supposed to do this with me but it wasn’t no drum pattern. I was discouraged and decided to not do it at all. Then Saint was like get Langston Hughes on em. So I decided to drop jewels. Then I wanted a duet. Cocoa murdered. Jesse was in Baltimore!!! He didn’t record his part until 10 on Thursday. I was mad and satisfied at the same time. Its so soulful.
#36 - Pick Up The Bass Snippet
Inspiration: Dancing
First single. Nuff said. Made it 8 months ago… Talk about timeless

I Love Italian Ices
August 23rd, 2008 in Uncategorized
So i decided to do some research on the company. lol. I’m clearly bored.
New Yorker Marketing Corporation has announced that it is has entered into an agreement to acquire Olympic Ice Cream Company the manufacturer and distributor of Marino’s Italian Ices. Marino’s is one of the best known frozen dessert brands in the New York-New Jersey-Connecticut Tri-State area, the name conspicuously displayed in pizzerias and other foodservice establishments throughout the region, as well as in supermarkets and groceries in single-serve cups. Terms of the deal, which is subject to certain conditions such as obtaining the necessary financing, were not released. New Yorker president Ted Ketsoglou said the acquisition would substantially increase his company’s sales and noted that it would be a “major accomplishment” in New Yorker Marketing’s continuing objective of acquiring additional frozen dessert manufacturers and distributors. “We believe that Marino’s reputation and distribution network far exceeds any of its competitors and would be a strong building for the company,” said Ketsoglou.
Dennis Vourzeris, President of Olympic, told Ice Cream Reporter that the arrangement with New Yorker was a good deal for both companies, and would certainly result in both growing. He noted, for example, that the current lineup of 16 flavors would surely expand. The Marino’s brand is currently marketed in individual 6-oz. cups through smaller “mom and pop” type groceries and similar convenience-oriented outlets, as well as six-packs for supermarket distribution. The company has been in business since 1953.
New Yorker Marketing began its existence as Mike’s Original Cheesecake Ice Cream. While continuing to sell its cheesecake ice cream, the company changed its name earlier this year to New Yorker Marketing to emphasize that it was intent on broadening the scope of its operations to include other frozen desserts. The new name came as a result of an acquisition in early 1998, when Mike’s purchased two prominent New York City ice cream distributors, New Yorker Ice Cream and Jerry’s Ice Cream.
Those acquisitions were the first step in the company’s effort to enter new product categories, with both distributors serving a full range of products and brands to customers ranging from independent grocers to large foodservice establishments. Since then, New Yorker also reached an agreement with the juice marketer Veryfine Products to manufacture and distribute a line of Veryfine Frozen Juice Bars.
