Puts Oxnard in the Spot - Light
Oxnard
U-tUBE Star
Lo-Boy is making quite a stir
with his You-Tube debut of L...Lo
Boyyyy-This
Is
How I Bang.
Be
it what it may - as in a GangStaRap video - it is a tribute to
Oxnard's ambition to be known as a multi-media - multi-cultured
community.
Aside
from it's "female mongrels" and common every day garden tools "Hoes",
this video is an eclectic mix of live actualities and real street video
taking you from the stage of a front porch, east-side of the Boulevard,
to a melodic dancing and gang-signing action in strict succinct
synchronization with a barbaric beat that excites the senses and reminds
us of the harsh world we do reside within. The alluring moves of
white tee-shirted lads to the narcotic beat of rhythmic rap or rapture
music, if you can bust a move, takes you to the sublime side of Oxnard's
"La Colonia" where the beat begins. Of course this beat can be
enhanced with large woofers and sub-woofers, regardless, this video is
fun to watch and extremely educational.
The
initial stir in Oxnard comes from a major scene shoot (perhaps with
permission) at a downtown landmark.
set
was struck for this video at the landmark "Pat Holden's Liquor" on 'A'
Street.....Didn't know the Hommies go there, but that may explain for the success of
this long-time Oxnard landmark. It is surmised that the current
property is still retained by the Oxnard Mayor's family.
The Mayor's father, Pat Holden, was a pilar of Oxnard's formative
years. He grew the business featured exclusively in this video.
Holden's
corner spot was always a good place to buy beer, wine, and fine liquors
and now it appears to be on its way to another form of landmark status,
that of being featured a mere 340,000 + times already world-wide, in LA
and in the OX..
The
Ox-Jo would like to know the significance of hanging sneakers from power-lines.
Will calling
my Boss "Gangsta Poke" get me in good with him and his Boss?
I am hoping that I can avoid being a "whussy that rolls up and does a
'Fly
By' without offering at least a "Haley-Rah".
You'll hear this in
the first
30-seconds of the vidi-upload. Budweiser is prominent throughout - but the
two main characters of the video procure a bottle of light-blue liquer
known as "Hypnotic" which is contrivance of massive
euphorication
which is not akin to Budweiser or even beer. Along with the 'Bud' there are some serious
'buds',
or "Chronic" as the term goes for the hyper-THC-content smoke
which is artfully exhibited in the story-line. It's
all good in the hood and the video gives you hints on how to
survive.
Lesson One: Don't do Hand Signs
Lesson Two: Obey Lesson One
Lesson Three: Be Cool ...it's all good in the hood.
I understand the sneakers
indicate the availability of something one usually sought in the A
Street alley. It's all good in da 'hood.
The
Ox Jo can't immediately post your comment on this video - but I will
post all
e-mails. So please send your thots on this viddy.
We are waiting for you to 'plost'
back. .... so hit us up -
In
Da Hood.
