Man it went the hell down last night. Little Brother backed by the band Orgonne just straight rippin' thangs! Grit Boys were going to open up, but things didn't quite work out, so for all y'all who missed them, here's the NEW VIDEO FOR FRE$H!
Feel the real! Grit Boys album is the best album to come out of Houston in a long time save for Devin the Dude, who in my opinion is on a whole nother level than just rap. So don't hate, get that Grit Boys album. It doesn't sound like FRE$H, it's even fresher.
Anyway last night was another magnanimous Scion event at Warehouse Live. I'm telling you every one of these shows has been off the chain, but Little Brother really surprised me. I've seen them before, hell I saw them a few weeks ago, but backed by LA's Orgonne, they were like one of the best rap groups I ever saw in my life. Seriously they kilt it.
As eveidenced by the action in the crowd.
Shit was wild.
New friend and old influence, Willie D joined them on stage and said something like "Them boys on the east coast wanna say hip hop is dead, but I'ma tell you right now that shit ain't dead, it's alive right here with these boys! He gave it up HUGE to Little Brother.
Stacey of OGPR.

the boy detective at work
I love the folks at Stata, but right there in the Stata manual:
I've got a lead, but I don't think I'm going to get this solved before I have to leave to meet people for this Boston Harbor Islands adventure today. Ugh. I'm already pushing it time-wise (if you are wondering why I'm writing a blog post then, it's that I'm waiting on Stata to execute something).
Apropos of nothing, last night I heard Kiss's song "Beth." I've always wondered: do you think the guy is really not going home to his beloved because his band needs to practice? Or, do you think that's just an excuse he's using because he's really out tomcatting around? He is a guy in a metal band, after all.
As always, Stata is 100% compatible with the previous releases...If only this was true. Instead, when Stata goes to a new version, my collaborator and I have to go through and figure out what parts of our programs have been broken by changes. I've spent the last two hours trying to figure out a bug that has been caused by a change to their -asmprobit- command (alternative-specific multinomial probit, which to my knowledge has never actually been used by a sociologist, and I actually think that's just as well). Whatever the problem is here, it is so ridiculously subtle it is putting my boy detective skills to the test.
