planet asia

no, this name has nothing to do with planets or asia for that matter. i have no idea why a rapper would name himself that. however i guess i should do a bit more of a background check on him to understand where he's coming from. what i DO know about him is that he's from south central california, and he is all for keeping the west coast in the "rap game". now you give me one west coast rapper who is not overly proud to admit to his west coast heritage. i feel that the "rap game" IS kinda vain like that. "shout outs", "hollas", "props"... it's always been like that.
but i digress...
i went to the planet asia and afu ra concert at sonar last thursday. it was actually supposed to headline with inspectah deck, but due to whatever reasons it might have been, he got held up at the airport in vancouver. i think he couldn't even make it to any of his other canadian shows. anyways, after planet asia's set, he ended up kickin back and sittin right beside where me and my friends were at. he was hilarious. to every girl that passed by him, he'd reach out and take her wrist to pull her up to him and get his mack on. it was funny, cuz it happened to a blonde girl, then an asian girl, then a brunette... i was so impressed at his confidence that i turned to my friend and said "dude! i wonder if i walk past him if he'll grab my arm too!"... see, i'm not saying that i wanted to get picked up by him. them girls looked like they wanted to go home with someone that night. i was rollin wit my homies so really, i didn't need anymore testosterone. i jus thought that it'd be funny to see if, lookin plain as i do, i'd make the "cut". so yeah, i showed my friend exactly how i'd do it, pretendin to walk past with my arm extended, as if i'd be expecting him to grab it... and while we were giggling, planet asia turned to me, looked me in the eye and said "i can hear what you're thinkin!"... i was busted for clownin on him!! it was so funny. then i went up to him and was laughin cuz he pulled me close so that the brunette wouldn't here him say "you wanna know what i'm doin? i'm jus bull shittin... that's honestly what i'm doin." he was a funny guy. and as my friend said, i'm lucky he wasn't all diva bout it.
and that's my story.
