More Tales of Real Rappers

Yo what up world, whats the deal, this is the blog, and I am CP.  I had a good thanksgiving, gained some weight and chilled with some good people.  My baby girl had to go back home to Tennessee the day of though, because she had to fuckin work the next day!.... on some fuckin bullshit.  Anyway that sucked, then the next day my mom wakes me up and tells me that my dad has been in a car accident and they are air lifting him to the hospital... I think I got dressed and showered in under 30 seconds and i was out the door and in the car before we actually knew which hospital they were taking him too.  We found out and drove down there, and after about an hour of waiting we finally got to see him.  Turns out he got rear ended at 55 mph and pushed into on coming traffic only to have another head on collision at around the same speed.  He was in a 1984 Toyota Tacoma pick up truck with a wooden bed, no airbags and a seat belt that snapped upon his second collision.  He has fractures in his left wrist, two of the finger on that hand, and his sternum.  He also chipped his pelvis and bruised his lungs, but overall he is okay (as crazy as that sounds).  I thought I was gonna loose my dad... something id never wish on anyone.  Now watching him in the hospital I find it hard to imagine the type of pain he must be going through, this was such a serious accident that the EMS workers told him they couldn't believe he was alive. All because some fuckin piece of shit wasn't paying attention to what he was doing on the road... containing my fucking murderous rage toward this person is very hard, especially because we know nothing about the accident accept what my dad has told us.

Let me say that again in case you didn't catch it: The only fucking person who has been able, or willing to tell us what happened to my father is he himself.  The police have made no attempt to contact us and let us know insurance information, accident report information, weather or not the waste of human life that plowed into the back of my dads car was drunk or not. They didn't even set foot in the hospital where he was admitted.  So, I call them the night he is put into the hospital, and this pig that answers the phone has the gull to tell me to wait 2 weeks for the accident report, and that they won't just send it to us, we have to send a self addressed stamped envelope to the station and they will send the report off to us.  I have a feeling the scene between me and the boys down at the station might not turn out so pretty if they don't work with me when I go down there to get the insurance info. 

Anyway all this bullshit aside, I played the show at the Knitting Factory last week and it went down real nice like, everybody had a good time, everyone else on the bill was ill, and we partied hard.  Ive set up a plan for getting on my performance game when i get back to Tennessee, and I have a lot of work yet to do while I'm still here in the NY, NJ area.  Don ripped his set at the KF show by the way, ripped it so hard they gonna have to Knit a new stage over there. aight I'm out, holla at cha boi myspace.com/cprhymes, holla.

First off I want to send my love out to CP and his family right now.  I actually got a chance to spend some time over at CPs crib a few months back while recording our joint album and his parents were two of the sweetest, coolest people I've ever met.  Besides the great food and music they provided a place I almost called home.  Not only were they funny and had endless stories to tell but they supported CP and even me 100% in the booth!  Yo CP we gotta get them on this CD, I got the track in mind already.  Anyway, it was a great experience and seeing them again at the Knitting Factory (coming all the way from bumblefuck Jerz) wasn't even a surprise.  This situation is so crazy and really gives us time to sit back and reflect on everything - the good and the bad.  Regarding the Knitting Factory and CPs first show - I never seen someone so nervous do so good.  haha!  CP was shittin bricks but wound up remembering all his joints anyway.  Below is some video from my set during the show, well try to get more on here next time.  I'm going to end this blog early and save all for next time folks.  In the meanwhile, get better CPops!
