Life is not over for hip hopers from yesterday. Many are still working and expanding their names (brand) by doing voiceovers, acting and even... dare I say... STILL performing. MC Lyte is one of those people. Check out this interview.

WHAT? Kevin's on Nutri System
As I've told you guys many times before, doing this blog takes a LOT of hours and work. Quite often, even though I work out, I found myself making bad choices in food. I don't like to cook and it's so much easier, I thought, to just go and get fast food. It's even more convenient because I live within walking distance of several fast food type restaurants. This seemed OK...for a minute but then I noticed I started picking up weight, like I said, EVEN though I try to get a run in daily. Before I knew it my clothes stopped fitting and I'm a middle aged man now and you know where we get it worse... the mid section. Let's face it, a gut is just not attractive. It's hard to sit down and get up and it's just in the way all the time (laugh). Don't even try tying your sneakers (laugh). I needed something that was easy to prepare and something that didn't have all the fat and grease in it.
I was watching TV one night and noticed the Nutrisystem commercial. This is a program that I had tried before with success and I was impressed that they were using men to promote the product. So many of the other weight loss programs act like men don't have weight problems too. I said this is perfect for my busy lifestyle. I ordered, completed my first month and I have lost a whopping 24 pounds.
I'll be telling you more about my progress and the program in the weeks

FORGIVE ME INDUSTRY FOR I HAVE SINNED: Kevin Ross Says: I've Had to Ride the Bus!
Yes, it's true. Two years ago I would have NEVER told y'all this but that was when I was busy trying to be like everybody else. I HAD to make it to an appointment the other day and you know how this industry economy is, I'm not trying to spend all my money on cabs and shit trying to act like it's the music industry circa 1999 and I'm still makin, $20,000 plus a month. Gas it high, food has gone up and it's a LOT and I mean a LOT of black industry folks out of work y'all.
The other day, I rode the train and yes, I have to admit, LAWD.... I had to get on the BUS... Oh the SHAME!!! Who Knew? Can you imagine, an industry vet with my credentials, getting on the got damn BUS? There must be a support group for people like me... If you know me, I don't mind trying new shit. I was actually amazed at how much of life you miss by having a car. My car is headed to the shop to replace the transmission AGAIN...YIKES: Savings Account Money SPENT... All my entrepreneurs in the house say Ho, Oh... say ho ho...
Anyway, I just had it replaced a year and a half ago and it's 5 mos out of warranty. I went to the old white dude that fixed it the first time thinking he might give me a break and he told he would do it again for the same price. I told him to suck my... for free
Riding the bus made me see a lot of things that surprised me. First, and this is not funny, a sister got on the train with two kids and she plopped her little boy, maybe 2 next to me. The little boy was filthy, dirty clothes and he smelled like he dumped on himself. I could only think about all the black mothers out there who are single and do the best that they can with little or no money and the screwed up black men who screw without condoms or concern for the baby that might be born out of it, but how much does it take to wash the child's clothes with a bar of soap in the sink if you have to? That shit is abuse...Let me get off of that..
Another thing that surprised me was all the white people, I mean SUBURBAN white people, REPUBLICAN types ON THE TRAIN and the BUS. Riding to the airport with their luggage and shit. I guess they're thinking... "You stupid niccas can ride around in your gas guzzlin'cars and SUVs if you want to, but I'm saving my shit for a rainy day. Dayum coons!"
Then this drunk man got on the bus and he was talking the whole time. He was actually funny. He looked at this OUTRAGEOUSLY obese sister (maybe 500 pounds) who was eating a bag of cheeto's very delicately (help me). She had one ass cheek in each seat and he said "You sho got some great big tities" The WHOLE bus HOLLERED. She was embarrassed but that shit was funny.

My Industy Life: Kevin Ross (some old ass industry pics)
I was looking at my photo box the other day and realized the industry pictures that I had were getting old as hell, they had dust on them and some were fading... I decided to run some of them online. If you have old pics send them in so that I can run there here too. The link for the pics is here or you can just click on one of the pics in the upper right column
