Quarashi was perhaps one of the most entertaining hip-hop groups I’ve ever seen live and meeting them after the show was awesome as well, even though they spoke English like Borat. I love it when groups from outside of the US can come to America and get huge.
You see, Quarashi is a group from Iceland…yes the same country responsible for Bjork. They enjoyed some stardom in Reykjavik on their first 3 albums, but it’s when they made their international debut with Jinx that they became a somewhat household name in many countries. This is one of the tracks that appears on the album, but I’m not sure of the nautical nature of a song called “Baseline”. This album was essentially a ‘best of’ with 5 new tracks, but it was still a damn fine album and one I truly appreciate.
I sit upon my throne as the owner/shogun of this site, WatchPlayRead. But it wasn't always so. I too have had blogspots, I've done other community blogs, I've even written professionally for other sites out there...yet none of them provided the content I had a real passion for.
It is then that I became tired of being a small cog in a big machine, and of writing about nothing but game news after game news article and the periphery that comes from such schlock, like knowing who Michael Pachter and Bobby Kotick are.
I decided to start MediaWhoreNetwork.com and ran up my post count there for about 2 years, commenting about any and everything that I wanted to. I even started a weekly podcast that I feel has come into its own.
It wasn't until earlier this year that I realized that having the word "whore" in your URL might be a bit limiting to my potential audience. I then made the website and its branding move over to WatchPlayRead.com.
