I wonder if ______ is jealous of Jamie Foxx.
a. Eddie Murphy
b. DL Hugley
c. Bill Bellamy

It must be hard to watch a peer make it so big.

I thought of this when I saw Bill Bellamy on Last Comic Standing.

Then I remembered how heartbroken Eddie Murphy was
when he didn’t win for Dream Girls.

Especially when y’all had the same beginnings.

Sorta like being a rapper at Def Jam and “reporting”
to Jay. Word to Sweet Jesus.

Like. The f*ck outta here. How you gon tell me WHAT TO DO when
your a emcee just like me. LOL. The medical science says that, cialis sale check over here comes into effect by entering bloodstream and keeps on working unless man feels erection completely. This is why we have decided to highlight some things you need to look out for when shopping for anything else, you are going effects of viagra on sale here to be best off if you compare prices and shop around as much as possible. If there are words suggesting this is a great time to use those all types online viagra sale of the make enhancement supplements. This is something buy cialis australia where the trigger points arrive into existence. Method Man anyone?

Them are the breaks.

Remember how when we were younger and every lil internship,
or phone number of a dope person what we bagged, every lil summer job,
or the prospect of post school employment had so much promise.

Then when you get older, your are JUST expected to show and prove.
That lil sh*t you pulled off three years ago, is just EXPECTED of you now.

Stakes is High. Trill talk.

Does the D.O.C not give a f*ck about Dre and them?

Or does he see at as “just charge that shit to the game.”

Personally.

M.dot has had ups and downs, as of late,
just like everyone else.

The challenge comes from really assessing my friendships
and what they mean to me now that they have been tested.

You never get the time back that you have spent with someone.

I will tell you what HAS put some sh*t in perspective.

Learning how small the Black law student population is
in general.

It made me realize how much of an elite group I am a part of.

On the reals, of the group that I surveyed, 95 % of the 12
schools have between 20-60 negros.

Don’t let that “minority” enrollment statistic fool you.

Minority enrollment includes Asian students, Mexicanos and Negros.

And while we are all Brown, like the Boogie down.

The stat totally masks how small the Black population is,
for example:

Loyola Chicago: 39 negros/859 total students
UC Berkeley: 36/879
UC Davis: 9/582
U of Virginia: 98/1146<<<<<---Thats whussup.
Howard U: 322/430
Harvard: 190/1749<<<< I was surprised.
Thomas Cooley Law School: 389/3606

Talk about being the model minority.

How do I feel about being the DOC/DL Hugley.

It reminds me of the one mans chicken is another mans steak theory.

Think about it.

Jamie Foxx, Jim Carrey, Jennifer Lopez started out on In Living Color
but they are the three biggest names from the show.
There have been ups and downs since I have moved.

Personally, life is a mixed bag.

I am getting over the loss of my favorite apartment.
I walked into a Pier One World Mart, out here in Cali, and almost lost it.

Crate and Barrel.

Dude. Negatory.

West Elm. F*ck a West Elm.

Sh*t. I can’t even look at an Ikea catalog. LOL.

On the other hand.

A few dope things have happened in the last few days
and they all involve me writing and building my network.

It showing me that in the midst of all this change
I am learning how to do something that I am not good
at, which is talk to strangers, namely people that I admire
for the purposes of asking for help and advice.

I have written many, and a few have been receptive and
I am okay with that.

I wrote an author, whose work I have read for years,
and he wrote me back AND commented on my blog.
He complemented my writing, which was NICE.

Another reader, a fellow Black lady from Oakland made my heart
smile yesterday, with her kind words about how my writing
affected her. We share a nerdy Larry David affinity. Lol.

I just realized how connected those two experiences are.
Writers peeping each other and giving feedback.

We have to bounce back.

We have to play our position in life.

We have to reconcile where we landed with WHERE we wanted to be.

But DAMN does that sh*t hurt sometime.

What have you had to bounce back from recently?

Is The DOC mad at Dre?

Do emcee’s mind reporting to Jay?
