Dumbfoundead. Safe. Video.

What’s good world! Here’s my new music video/song “SAFE”. After the last Academy Awards and the regular whitewashing of hollywood roles,i wrote this song and made this video adding my piece to the conversation. If you have any experiences or stories about this issue join the discussion …

[intro]

You took me as safe, that was your first mistake, who said i was safe

[verse 1]

the other night i watched the Oscars and the roster of the only yellow men were all statues,
we a quarter of the population there’s a room of fuckin’ 1 percenters laughing at you,
fuck a bambu ceiling, guess i gotta play the villain,
ODB up at the Grammys on the mic like “Wu-Tang is for the children!”

Bruce Jenner is woman, OJ was acquitted, Kim K is a hero,
the sky is the limit any minute now they gonna let an Asian brotha’ get a lead role,
shots fired ima reload, never saw this side of Chino,
he was always quiet keeping to himself, never messed with anybody else thats the Jonathan that we know

[hook]

Seems so safe, till one day things go cray,
i swear if things don’t change, my actions can’t be blamed, [STAND UP]

and now you gotta duck! you know you never gave a fuck.
i came to get my cut! (fuck you, pay me) you know i never gave a fuck!\.

[verse 2]

i ain’t never heard of none f y’all fools, i can do whatever every one of y’all do,

if i never get a chance you might see the homie show up on the 5 o’ clock news,
you aint never seen a yellow boy wild’n yellow boy shinin’ , sound the alarm i got news,
go ahead and pro-file em’ i aint pro-violence, shhhhh, silence is how yellow boys move,

its been the same ol’ thang, i swear the game don’t change,

what you talkin bout there aint no space, guess i gotta go and make more space,

you know I’m cool as a motherfucker chillin’ in the cut hella quiet with the loud pack,
since I’m a cool motherfucker you think everything is safe till i ask you where the safe at.

[hook]

Seems so safe, till one day things go cray,
i swear if things don’t change, my actions can’t be blamed, [STAND UP]

and now you gotta duck! you know you never gave a fuck.
i came to get my cut! (fuck you, pay me) you know i never gave a fuck.

[outro]

you took me as safe,that was your first mistake, who said i was safe

Wiener-Dog. Trailer. Ellen Burstyn. Kieran Culkin. Julie Delpy. Danny DeVito. Zosia Mamet.

tFrom director Todd Solondz, WIENER-DOG is a dark, starkly funny story of a single dog and the many different people she touches over her short lifetime. Man’s best friend starts out teaching a young boy some contorted life lessons before being taken in by a compassionate vet tech named Dawn Wiener. Dawn reunites with someone from her past and sets off on a road trip. After leaving Dawn, Wiener-Dog encounters a floundering film professor, as well as an embittered elderly woman and her needy granddaughter—all longing for something more. Solondz’s perversely dark comedy offers an appallingly honest look at the American experience, brought to life by its all-star cast.

Star Trek Beyond. Trailer. Idris Elba. Chris Pine. Simon Pegg. Zachary Quinto. Zoe Saldana.

“Star Trek Beyond,” the highly anticipated next installment in the globally popular Star Trek franchise, created by Gene Roddenberry and reintroduced by J.J. Abrams in 2009, returns with director Justin Lin at the helm of this epic voyage of the U.S.S. Enterprise and her intrepid crew. In “Beyond,” the Enterprise crew explores the furthest reaches of uncharted space, where they encounter a mysterious new enemy who puts them and everything the Federation stands for to the test.

Gente-fied. Trailer. America Ferrera. Alicia Sixtos. Art Bonilla. Edsson Morales. Rafael Sigler.

GENTE-FIED is a web series that follows seven characters as they deal with the effects of change in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Boyle Heights. Some are young Latinxs with bi-cultural tastes, hustling to create spaces in their community that celebrate their Chicanx identities. Others are old-school paisanos and business owners trying to make sense of the changes that are threatening their livelihoods with rent hikes, a housing crisis, and a slow stream of outsiders whose fascination with their barrio [neighborhood] has created a fertile ground for gentrification.

Each episode is seen through the point-of-view of a different character and explores the complications that arise around gente seeking to improve and preserve their community; complications that are rewarding in some situations and corrosive in others. Both subversive and hilarious, GENTE-FIED is an explosion of fusion tacos, LGBTQ raza, micheladas, defiant murals, generational clashes and more, as our characters fight to stay rooted in their changing community.

    The Light Between Oceans. Trailer. Michael Fassbender. Alicia Vikander. Rachel Weisz.

    DreamWorks Pictures’ “The Light Between Oceans” is a heart-breaking drama about fate, love, moral dilemmas and the lengths to which one couple will go to see their dreams realized. Starring Michael Fassbender, Alicia Vikander, Rachel Weisz, Bryan Brown and Jack Thompson, the film is written for the screen and directed by Derek Cianfrance based on the acclaimed novel by M.L. Stedman.

    In the years following World War I, Tom Sherbourne [Michael Fassbender], a young veteran still numb from his years in combat, takes a job as lighthouse keeper on Janus Rock, a remote island off the coast of Western Australia. As the island’s sole inhabitant, he finds comfort in the monotony of the chores and the solitude of his surroundings. When he meets the daughter of the school’s headmaster, Isabel Graysmark [Alicia Vikander], in the local town of Partageuse on the mainland, Tom is immediately captivated by her beauty, wit and passion, and they are soon married and living on the island. As their love flourishes, he begins to feel again, their happiness marred only by their inability to start a family, so when a rowboat with a dead man and infant girl mysteriously washes ashore, Isabel believes their prayers may have finally been answered. As a man of principle, Tom is torn between reporting the lost child and pleasing the woman he loves, and against his better judgment he agrees to let Isabel raise the child as their own, making a choice with devastating consequences.

    The Accountant-Ben Affleck-Nude Penis

    Christian Wolff [Ben Affleck] is a math savant with more affinity for numbers than people. Behind the cover of a small-town CPA office, he works as a freelance accountant for some of the world’s most dangerous criminal organizations. With the Treasury Department’s Crime Enforcement Division, run by Ray King [J.K. Simmons], starting to close in, Christian takes on a legitimate client: a state-of-the-art robotics company where an accounting clerk [Anna Kendrick] has discovered a discrepancy involving millions of dollars. But as Christian uncooks the books and gets closer to the truth, it is the body count that starts to rise.

    Hell or High Water. Trailer. Chris Pine. Ben Foster. Jeff Bridges.

    A story about the collision of the Old and New West, two brothers—Toby [Chris Pine], a straight-living, divorced father trying to make a better life for his son; and Tanner [Ben Foster], a short-tempered ex-con with a loose trigger finger—come together to rob branch after branch of the bank that is foreclosing on their family land. The hold-ups are part of a last-ditch scheme to take back a future that powerful forces beyond their control have stolen from under their feet. Vengeance seems to be theirs until they find themselves in the crosshairs of a relentless, foul-mouthed Texas Ranger [Jeff Bridges] looking for one last triumph on the eve of his retirement. As the brothers plot a final bank heist to complete their plan, a showdown looms at the crossroads where the last honest law man and a pair of brothers with nothing to live for except family collide.
