It’s been a really fucking rough year for East Oakland, but at least the kids have D-Lo. His single “No Hoe” is all over the place in California, and apparently he’s Snoop’s new favorite rapper.

It’s been a really fucking rough year for East Oakland, but at least the kids have D-Lo. His single “No Hoe” is all over the place in California, and apparently he’s Snoop’s new favorite rapper. “No Hoe” should be on MTV by the time you read this.

Like most amazing music, the sound coming out of East Oakland right now is best described as adolescents shouting over really fucking loud drums and bass, and little else. Obviously, the omnipresent strippers and scrapers remain intact. If a song is of the utmost quality, it is said to “slap.” They just get bummed when you call it “hyphy.”

On a chilly afternoon off 50th and International, D-Lo finished his Chinese food and we went to the store to get a blunt.

STREET CARNAGE: Do you like Swishers?

D-LO: Yeaah, I fuck with Swishers right. This is what I smoked my whole life, and then I started fuckin’ with Backwoods.

What about these?

D-LO: I don’t even like blunt wraps. I don’t like those, at all. Period.

Amateur hour, huh?

HUNGRY (pictured): They’re too soft.

D-LO: But THESE though? I FUCK with theeeese. I started fucking with Thizz and Mac Dre and them people and then I started fuckin’ with Backwoods, and ever since then I’ve been, you know, smokin’ Backwoods. It’s harder to roll them but you get higher.

  21. no.thanks. says:

    now, just get some coverage on the skinny pants wearing jerkin’ kids in LA and you will have fulfilled your ‘stuff that black people do that white people are amused by’ quota for the year.

    dutchmasters were my choice back in the day. backwoods were a little harsh for me. we were smoking expensive cigars at a party the other day. I saved the short from mine and rolled a blunt out of it with some of the CA medical and damn that was smooth. nothing but $20 cigars for my blunts now. thats how I roll baby.

  23. Hyphy says:

    Shit’s hyphy. Fuck blunts, zig zags are the way to go.

  25. zzzzzzzz says:

    @Anonyourmom

    I can’t figure out whether you are putting me on Double Ironic Secret Probation, or whether you actually think I am a “FUCKING EVANGELICAL CHRISTIAN” who quotes Marx and comments on this website. Either way, something awesome is happening in your comment/brain.

  33. Beef says:

    People who smoke blunt wraps are ‘lil baby boys. Faggots need cute candy flavors even when they’re getting high. I’d love to put Ricin in all of the blunt wraps across the country.
