Flavor Flav, reality-show star and member of Public Enemy, was supposed to shake the Seattle rap scene over the weekend with tracks from his soon-to-be-released first solo album, "Rise-Fall-Rise." But when he arrived Saturday at The Premier, a 1,500-person venue, fewer than 50 were there to greet him.

[bjork]

It couldn't have anything to do with his album being about FIFTEEN YEARS LATE, could it?

Whenever I see this man, I am overcome with the desire to weep uncontrollably. While humorous to some, to me he is just a sad, sad man, with apparently no ability whatsoever to look at himself objectively for two seconds and see how he really is. It's fairly obvious that the whole concept of The Surreal Life is to put these people in the worst light possible, yet they eat it up. ?

Do you watch The Surreal Life? There's certainly more to it than what you say.

 

[Jewbacca]

This is far more appropriate...

To be fair, I am not a regular viewer. I have seen a couple of Season 2 (I think?), and a few from Season 3, it's just not something I enjoy. Based on what I've seen, it just appears to be a vehicle through which B-grade celebs get to be reminded of their has-been status in front of the whole country. If there is some depth to it, by all means, please enlighten me.

:lol

We had a larger turnout for our school function-instrumetnal(mostly)- "rock orchestra" of a bunch of stuff most people don't listen to.

That's sad.

 

[miyuru]

:lol I can't believe this. So I guess the show went on?? :lol

 

[dskillzhtown]

Why in Seattle? Go to NYC or Philly at a club. The regulars will fill up the place atleast.

 

[MadFuzzy]

It's OK, Flav's getting over it by appearing in this really lame reality show in the UK at the moment: http://www.five.tv/programmes/thefarm/

Along with lots of other z-list celebs, some of whose claims to fame include "erm I used to go out with someone who used to be in a soap opera once".

 

[sc0la]

Should have titled it Rise, Fall...

 

[Jacobi]

What was The Surreal Life ?

edit :
Flavor decided to chat up the chickens instead. “Yo, y’all lay me some eggs, I’m hungry,” he hollered.
