Note: When the mail out comes, you shgould b able to click on play and then it sends you a playing mp3 of my song "I got steps".

Oh no she didn't!!!

The Friday just gone, I went to my friend Taneka's private birthday. The festivities where situated in a sophisticated club right near fabric. 2hours in the bashment set was live. Everyone was in the vibe. (But still keeping it sophisticated) ...Then dutty whine came on, and the girl in the pics thought it was 2007 and she was in the video or in cameos night club. Now back to 2009 and if you pay attention to the pics. You can see she is putting in a 100% effort. Knees stuck in! Only one problem... ......No carpet! Just concreat. Kneck was swinging. kneck was swinging so bad that her weave came out! But she kept it gangster pulled it out, and carried on swinging. The tune ended and she stopped. Her weave in hand and her knee caps ashy (but not bleeding!)

She gets my respect! She went in.

The moral of the story is GO HARD, OR GO YARD!


P,S
Please don't try this @ home (If U have no carpet). After I saw her leaning against a pillar, weave tucked into her belt. Coco butter in her hand. Creaming the knee caps!

Penny 4 your thoughts : The present.


Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.

Aura level 92% (12th - 18th

As i type this my aura should go down to 90% because I'm eating a lasange that taste like sweat. (Yes i do no what sweat taste like. There was this time I got an armpit to the face. But I'm not gunna re-live that story.) But where talking about last week so it is not counted.

So Before I digress any more let me tell u about my quite alright week. So I didn't make it to City Love. But I heard lots of people didn't get in and got hit by hail stones. (Not gunna lie that made me feel much better. Because I know the team was never gunna b early, and that would be me out there with them.)

But went on the road trip to Southampton, to club Junk and the event called Angel. It was heavy! Saw Team Ora do there ting and had the whole place bumping and jumping. Nice vibes and no drama. Just the way we like it. nothing but jokes on the way there and back.


I was suppose to go U got jokes, but was running way to late, So just passed thru the Sunday show 4 like the last half an hour. Toju the comedian was hilarious as usual.

Can u spot me in the pic?
Is it me or is Mr Raekwon who took this pic (and I swiped of face book) the most famous pic taker in London town?

Earlier that day I went to a Ghanaian naming ceremony. It was joke and i learnt a lot to. I was proud of my self, because I almost failed the drinking ban like my friend Simone, only one week in. But I will talk about the naming ceremony later on as an update on the drinking ban.
Art wise got more commissions to do. Had a meeting with Terrance, and the exhibition is almost hundred percent set 4 summer. Stay updated to find out more in the future.

Also had a quick talk with Ben Wynter a founder of Origins Media. http://www.originsmag.com
We might have some work in the pipe line soon. Fingers crossed. Meeting with him this week to get more finalised ideas.

Music wise the video is on the way. Going to look @ a ruff cut soon. Press releases are almost ready. things are coming together nicely.

Heard some more amazing stuff out of the UGC camp. There production is amazing.

No wonder my Aura's @ 92% - minus the lasange!

Drinking Ban : Failed (Not by me!)

If u have been reading or checking on this blog U will know that i have been on a drinking ban.
Lot of people said yeah right. Others showed lots of support. One of my friends in particular was like "wicked! I'm going to join you"! I said yes. A shoulder to lean on. I told her I was going to put it in my blog. She was like no please don't. I was like.... OK i might mention U hear or there. But I wont bate up your face and your name is common (I know like 10 girls with the same name.) So no one will know its you. She was skeptical but was like aight cool. That was a week ago.

I didn't actually put nothing in my blog yet about it. But then i spoke to her on face book and she was liked she had a drink. Only a week in she gave in 2 pier pressure. In one weak she was Week (I know the wrong way around I'm DIFFERENT!)
She begged and pleaded with me not to put it in my blog..... Yeah right! Its here Simone. ?Yeah that's right to name and shame. If i was hanging off a cliff i know your hands not gunna b pulling me up.

& just 4 extra fun value i put the Transcript of you begging me not to talk about it in my blog.
(In Crazy Dictator/Mad scientist voice!) HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Drinking Ban: 1st challenged passed


Seeing that I'm not going City Love (the man dem flopped me!) I might as well type how I did with the Road trip with some of Team Ora in Southampton @ Club Junk, @ the rave called Angel http://angel.junkclub.com/
I did it! I passed. With flying colours like I was flicking my paint brush in the air.

So went Southampton on Thursday. Shocka B looked after me nicely , "Thank you sir!"
As soon as i stepped in V.I.P it was on! Shocka B asked me "What am i drinking ?" Free drink!? ... I cant deny that. Oh but i did! Coca Cola with Ice please. I did it baby!... But then... Hour later sweating like a 20 stone man in a heat wave... Bang! a bottle of champs get put in front of me. A present from V.I.P from these 2 6 foot 5, Heavy D/rapper security looking guys. But really they are big ballers who have come over from the Congo. (I think? When they was telling me this girl was eyeing me up and my concentration went, plus the loud music. It was some where in West or South Africa.)

So what was i to do? I need a drink.... Its right there... There is only one thing I can do....
....Look like a PIMP! i tapped these two girls who were dancing very sexy next to me (They wern't sweating or nothing! Don't now how they did it, cause this rave was hot. Even the toilet attendant was sweating.) Gave them the 2 glasses and the Bucket with the champagne. Took my hug and kiss on the cheek and bopped!

Bopped all the way to the bar and got myself another Coca Cola before i collapsed.

Didn't drink no alcohol the whole night. I will talk more about the rest of the rave on Monday.

I can do this because I duz this!

Drinking Ban (1st challenge)


Ok quick one, im about to leave to go meet ace and Milk Tray. Road trip to Southampton. My 1st challenge of saying no to any free drinks! I do this cause, I Duz this!

Hope we dont brake down on the motor way like last time. Have i still got RAC cover?

Wednesday 14 January 2009

Refund please! The spirit

1st of let me start off by saying I didn't even wanna go and see this 2hour waste of vision, thinking and hearing. I wanted to watch 7 pounds and see Will Smith give another great performance (He chooses good scripts) But it was not out, I was a week early (Mental note: Next time just be patient!)





So after I have paid an extortionate price 4 food and drink (consisted of a drink and popcorn) which almost came to a tenner. I, with my other viewing guest who came to accompany me sat down and watched the trailers. Now I thought yeah cool, I can put my feet up and kick back there is space. (There is only like 20 - 30 people in this screening. Must be because its a week day. No not cause its a week day because the read the reviews and went and saw something else.)

So 4 minutes in I realise feet up in a cinema, is not as comfortable as it is @ home on the sofa. 6 minutes in my accomplice leans over and says "this is going 2 B shit!" me being the optimist I look @ this pessimist(Who hasn't seen Sin City or 300) and say "It just started, give it a chance...." ....So 15-20 minutes in I see a familiar face its Eva Mendez looking sexy as eva (get it?).
I have never seen an oxymoron look so good! She comes out the cold water looking hot! Then not soon after the action is on. Out comes Samuel L Jackson, YES! its gunna get good..
...errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Nah. Weak jokes weak script! Good design and stylised filming.

1hour in, I'm shaking my head cause it just sunk in how much the food and drink was. Plus its starting to hurt the left side of my face because of how bad the film is. Out the corner of my prorifial vision I can C lots of moving. Then my audio censors picked up moaning!!! I leaned over to my partner in pain and asked "Are they f**king!? " All I got back was Laughter.

So now I'm trying to block out the extra surround sound and make the most of this film. But its dragging. Really dragging with really bad jokes! Weak one liners coming from everyone. Even Samuel L got in on the act "I said I don't like egg on my face!" ....

Now I'm thinking have I been influenced by this pessimist next to me (who chose this as a replacement.) Or are they not a pessimist, just have good fore sight. Is it just us or are others feeling the same way?

No sooner had the thought crossed my mind, and some people got up and walked towards the exit. When they reached the exit they Told of the rest of us still in our uncomfortable seats "This film is shit!" which got the most chuckles of the night.

The rest of the film just got shittier, the noise to my right just got louder. The high light of the film was seeing Eva's bare buttocks. But I've seen them B4. (Training Day)

I don't know the name of the leading guy. I don't care he is not worth googling!

Definitely in top three selected worst films of this decade!

And the Popcorn was just dry! I asked 4 sweet!

Straight 2 Ipod!


DJ Twin Bizzle (Not that twin, the other one) Gave me a link to one his mixes. Now if you are a Garage fan and a funky fan, This mix is 4 U. He blended the old with the new like it was pineapple and Coconut (The green carton) and it came out sweet. I was practising my steps, in the mirror nicely!

Here is the link to the mix: https://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=bVlDNU1BcG9KV1BIRGc9PQ

Here is the link 2 his myspace to ask 4 more: www.myspace.com/twinbatangles

Don't b shy get messaging and ask 4 more!

Aura level (5th - 11th of Jan)



Yes that's right my aura is still very high. I don't know what going on in 09, but I'm getting compliments all over the place. And its not me saying them to myself in different mirrors all around the house. There coming from other people!

All this hype I've been giving myself since is college is passing through peoples, "Whatever I don't care!" barrier and there starting to see the glow and the star quality.

I got to banging 2 steps beats from Kwame of Undasound production (http://www.myspace.com/undasound) so gunna write to them this week.

I found a place that does prints. so reprint of my painting are coming.






Also Spoke to Old schoolfriend Terrance another amazing painter (www.myspace.com/yourportrait) About putting on a exhibition this year.


Plus i was searching 4 a brown scarf and could find one in the whole of westfields. Then my flat mate gave me one brown scarf (With difffrent shades, better than what i was looking 4 to.) they just got and didnt really like.
So its a positive start to the year. And 24's season 7 begins tonight.

My aura should b @ 90% but i went to the cinema, to watch The spirit. Crappiest film of this decade. talk about that later...



Overall I'm in my happy place and motivated! Yeah baby!

DRINKING BAN (The introduction) & Week 1

Now the 08 was great, I don't know about you but I had a lot of fun, and got a lot done. Lots of organisation for 09, but a lot more raving! With raving came drinking. DON'T GET IT TWISTED I'm far from an alcoholic. But when its time to go in, no half hearted game player round here! As the saying goes. "GO HARD OR GO YARD!"

Only problem the outcome can have side effects... Me and my friends felt them on a few occasions.

Lots of swaying, wobbling lots, of mumbling, occasional passing out, Some ppl become the angry loud drunk (JCX).
Others cry! (They say I'm prone to do that , and have got video footage. I'm not crying per-say it was tears of laughter! Anyway...) And the most common... the hangover.

I used to think I had the ultimate procedure for combating the hangover was 2 litres worth of water when you get in your house to cleanse you insides. Then have lots of bread to soak up the alcohol.

It was fool-proof until the 4th of January 2009. My friend Ace from bbc 1xtra (4-7pm weekdays PLUG) Cousin had come over from the Bronx. Nah he is a real guy. But he proved his realness 4 no other reason more than this. It was his birthday the day before and we went faces on the sunday. Now he drinks Hennesey STRAIGHT! I don't know how but between the 2 of us we backed the whole bottle before we got in the club. I don't remember the rest of the night but here are some pictures from this random girls camera.


The next thing I know, i was walking to house in the snow. Then all I remember is waking up with the best hangover. Didn't do a damn thing all day!(that's the way to start my 2009, Excellent!!!)
In my vulnerable state is when one of my flat mates came up with the bet of me not drinking for the rest of 2009. I back down from no one or most challenges. The forfeit is doing any thing of there choice. I'm not feeling the openness of that, but it is what is. I dont lose (usually)


This has been the 1st week not struggling or nothing. But then I have been out out. Next week will be the real challenge Choc's city of love rave and a christening. Lets see how i do...

Here are some random picture of me and my friends drunk in 08

WHAT I DUZ!!!!

Hello there, the name is flamer flames. I'm just a regular guy that does extraordinary things.

If U personally know me, U can vouch that I am somewhat blatant. (In a positive way!)
Come across me in person and i will usually B smiling and catching joke.

Most of all I chat of very high intense entertaining nonsense condensed in with a few interesting facts and knowledge here and there. So seeing that this is the start of 09 its time! its time 2 document the continuous adventure, we call the life of FLAMER FLAMES. Because last year was so much fun, but got blurred, smudge & stained, through the mix of jokes, tears, sex, music alcohol & food.

Not this year mate!

So there will be regular updates of certain subjects and random bits in between.


Word of warning! - My spelling and grammar is less than up 2 G.C.S.E standards. This is due 2 the fact, i was 2 busy doodling in lessons. Plus my memory 4 long words is one of the lowest. (Get bored by the 6th letter.)
Also some words look better spelt wrong. Or spelling them wrong gives extra pizazz 2 the word when it is spoken out aloud. (Try it, U will C how much fun it is.)

These will B the regular categories, that i will have much to talk about.


My Weekly Aura.
Right now I'm in my happy place. Its fun hear warm n Cosie. My mum noticed my glow that i have got. (She asked if i was getting regular sex. I walked off in disgust. "WE R NOT COOL LIKE THAT MOTHER!" We don't discuss matters of that nature.)
So we will be keeping a close look @ the percentage my Aura is glowing week 2 week, and the reasons Y. (It was 85% but went down to 80% because of mummies comment.


Fortnightly Events
I made a conscious decision that to keep my aura rising I would have to do and see more things. (It will probably just involve raving . If you got any ideas holla man down!) Whatever it is its going up in the blog.





Drinking Ban
Due to the fact over the Xmas period of 08-09, I got tipsy or overly drunk thrice 2 often. I have made a bet with on of my Flat mates that I will not drink for the rest of 09. (excluding my birthday)
After making the bet I realised that means nothing! Not even 2 4 one cocktail @ mint bar. Not impressed with myself again. But being that I'm out to be a man of my word & I'm a winner... Its on!




Girl of the week.
During my travels of 08 I came across many a wonderful & beautifully amazing ladies. (Lyrics!!!)
So hopefully this year the pleasant pleasure of being round and conversing with the
finer gender will continue. Slightly shallow but only photogenik will make it on my blog. The facially challenged will not get posted. Neither will the ones will ugly souls. DAT NAH MEK IT!


Penny 4 your thoughts
I have many thoughts so I will just jot them down.


Working Progress

I'm an all around artist! No really I am. I make music and am a portrait painter. So when i need ideas and motivation plus constructive help, I'ma put here so U can be the 1st to help out with the things i love so much to make.


Battle of the Sexes!

The way the XY and the XX see things from different angles amazes me. There is always something new 2 talk about on this subject.


Entertainment
When things entertain me, if 4 the right reasons or the wrong reasons. I will have to let you feel my joy o feel my pain. (can I get a group hug!?)

Bitch move of the month!
Last year men was acting like bitches and women were acting like men. Hopefully this year wont b the same. But if i come across any bitch maneuvers, I'ma expose people.


Good deed of the week
I'm trying to be a better person. So I'm gonna try and do a good deed a week. (This might not have any updates)

That's it 4 now. Let us begin. Thank U 4 your time. If u C me out and about and your lady come and give me a hug. If your guy just nod!
