OK, Im going to try and not sound like an asshole here, and I am not saying this to anyone in particular so dont take offense... BUT please,

PLEASE, stop using the comments area to advertise your music, your release, your event, your business, etc

(i had to make this larger because people STILL continue to advertise their shit.
As a business owner, musician, etc I understand the need to hustle and get your music or whatever out there, but find another way. I will only make 1 exception to this rule from now on, if the advertisement is promoting something I am involved in, or friends of mine are involved in, then I am all for it. And by friends, i mean REAL LIFE FRIENDS, not myspace friends... so if you dont know my phone number, havent been to my home, dont know my real name, etc... dont post an advertisement in my comments section. Otherwise, be warned, it will be deleted. I'll leave the ones that are on here now, but no more [rant over]
Oh yeah, and for those that have asked. Yes I really am in the movie Who's the Man. Unfortunatly the TV release cuts me out of the frame (is this shitty movie available widescreen?). But for those that really are interested, im in 2 scenes, both near the beginning of the movie. The scene outside the club Im on the line and Bernie Mac calls me a drug dealer. The other scene is in the club, i couldnt pick myself out in that scene if you paid me to.
