The Foreign Exchange DC Show Pt. 2: The Videos

I now present video from The Foreign Exchange show at the Black Cat on Sunday. Forgive my Foster’s-fueled trash-talk and rhyming along to Nic’s Groove at the beginning of this clip. My antics were referencing the episode of What’s Happening where ReRun was bootlegging The Doobie Brothers’ concert. That memory of ReRun dropping the tape recorder while dancing to “Takin’ It To The Streets” will never NOT be funny to me! The music stopped and everything! Michael McDonald looked at him like “I’m gonna knock 50 pounds of black off your big ass for taping my show!”

Don’t worry, there are more clips…but before I get to them, I have to give style credit where it’s due: Phonte’s hat/suit combo is as smooth as it gets. That outfit made ME want to go grown-man shopping and step my adult contemporary game up! Read the rest of this entry »

The Foreign Exchange DC Show Pt. 1

If you’re not up on The Foreign Exchange, I don’t know what you’re doing with your life. It’s really that serious. You are missing out on true musical talent, in an era where chanting “AY! AY!” over a hot track like some kind of mentally challenged homosexual is all you need to get on the radio.

No offense to gay people, the mentally challenged…or even OJ Da Juiceman, because I’ll openly admit to having that song on my “guilty pleasure” playlist. All dumb-ass drug deal anthems aside, let’s get back on topic.

Sunday night’s Foreign Exchange show at the Black Cat in DC was flat-out great. I had a really good time, and I will continue to give Nicolay, Phonte, Yahzarah, Darien Brockington, Rapper Big Pooh and Co. good press over here on ListenToLeon.net as a token of appreciation for their music. Here are some of the highlights:     Read the rest of this entry »

If You’re Ever This Drunk, Please Go Home!

Don’t try to buy more beer. No good can come from it!

Creative Health Care Reform Protest Photos

I’m all about civil disobedience, especially when it involves fake butt cheeks! For the past few days, there have been people protesting about a block away from my office in favor of health care reform. The two folks I saw with hospital gowns, fake asses and signs that say “Are you covered?” were the ones I thought you guys would enjoy the most. Isn’t creativity great?      Read the rest of this entry »

Smurfs Are Real!

…and they’re taller than me :(

Now you guys now know why I write a comedy blog. It’s not even Halloween yet, and I’m already befriending Papa Smurf on U Street. I almost decided against putting this up here since I was having a bad hair day, but photographic proof of the existence of Smurfs is too important of a find. Not posting it would make me worse than Vanity Smurf walking around with his mirror.

Ladies: Don’t Get TOO Comfortable Around Your Man

Yes this video is a little cheesy, but it makes a great point. Ladies, when you’re in a relationship, please don’t get TOO comfortable around your man and stop wearing sexy clothes for him. Hell, it doesn’t even have to be sexy; just wear feminine stuff around the house instead of the same unflattering sweatpants and head scarf. Every.Single.Mother.F*cking.Night. There’s something to be said about allure. Once it’s gone, the light in which we view y’all changes a little, whether anyone wants to admit it or not. Read the rest of this entry »
