Nasty Tai Boogy: How long have you been rapping?

J.J. Sinatra: 13 years

Nasty Tai Boogy: 13 years thats wonderful. What made you decide to start a career in music?

J.J. Sinatra: I know this sounds kinda played out, but when I was 5 years old I saw Michael Jackson on T.V. doin' the moon walk and I said to myself, "that's what I wanna do". The only problem was I couldn't sing or dance. By the time I was 10 rap was on the come up and I fell in love with it. When I hit 16 I found out that I could rap and decided to pursue the dream of bein' a rap star.
Nasty Tai Boogy: What is your inspiration?

J.J. Sinatra: A lot of things inspire me, but I think what inspired me the most was what everyone who doubted me had to say about me bein' a rapper. Ya know, stuff like "you're corny, stop tryin' to be black" and "you're chasing a pipe dream", and my all time favorite "you're a fake ass white boy who thinks he's down". Yeah, blowin' up in everyone's face who hated on me is my inspiration.

Nasy Tai Boogy: Who are your influences?

J.J. Sinatra: Well in the rap field I'd have to say Jay-Z, Nas, Biggie, Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul and of course Ghost Face Killah. I'm also influenced by Dean Martin, Andrew Dice Clay and who else but the late great Frank Sinatra.

Nasty Tai Boogy: What are your future goals?

J.J. Sinatra: Besides bein' successful in music, I'd have to say my ultimate goal is to be a great actor. I really love rappin' but I'd rather be in the movie business. You can act til your old & gray and keep reinventing yourself. You can reinvent yourself in music but I can't see me bein' 50 years old droppin' my 23rd rap album.

Nasty Tai Boogy: I feel you on that. Are you signed to a record label?

J.J. Sinatra: Yes. I'm signed to a indie label called Jimmy Franks Recording Company, but my distribution is under Fontana which is a Universal Records corporation.

Nasty Tai Boogy: What artist are you currently listening to at the moment?

J.J. Sinatra: On the real, NONE!!!! I'm so into what I gotta do right now that alls I listen to is instrumentals that I plan on crushin' for future projects. Also there's a lot of garbage on the radio these days. Once in a blue I'll pop in Jay-Z's first album or Ghost Face's Supreme Clientele. Other then that you might catch me listening to the jazz channel.

Nasty Tai Boogy: What producer and/or artist would you love to work with and why?

J.J. Sinatra: I'd love to work with Primo from Gang Starr simply because I came up on chopped up sample beats like the ones he's famous for. Kayne West is pretty nasty with the beats too, plus I think his ego & my cockyness would be super obnoxious on a track. Obnoxious in a good way of course.

Nasty Tai Boogy: If you were a superhero, what would your name be and what superpower would you have?

J.J. Sinatra: My super hero name would be Dr. BIGWOOD!!! Use your imagination to figure out my super powers.

Nasty Tai Boogy: Lol at Dr. Bigwood. Everyone and their mother has a twitter now, do you have one?

J.J. Sinatra: You're makin' me feel old!!!! I kinda gotta idea of what Twitter is, with all the textin' all your people and then some at once, givin' 'em a blow by blow of what you're doin'. But naw I can't lie I ain't really up on that shit. I suppose when I'm officially famous enough then I'll get my Twitter face on.

Opening Scene: Beanpie is laying in bed thinking about a new sham to make some easy money. He is a self proclaimed hustler in the suburbs of Connecticut. In his mind he is the ultimate hustler.

Beanpie (to self): Alright govy, today is the day you make it big. You've come too far to stop. After today's sham everybody will know this name, BEANPIE!

*Beanpie is in the bathroom singing and mixing a solution in the bathtub when his little brother Tailgate comes into the room.

Tailgate: Move I have to pee.
Beanpie: Just go, I'm no meat gazer govy. Plus you have a malnourished tallywacker. I heard NASA put the Hubble Telescope into orbit just to try and find it.
Tailgate: Shutup!

*Tailgate starts peeing

Tailgate: What are you doin?
Beanpie: If you must know, I've come up with the ultimate sham
Tailgate: Why don't you just get a job?
Beanpie: Listen mate, Beanpie works for no one. I'm a business man, besides you can't look this good and not work for yourself.

*Tailgate finishes, turns around, and puts his hand on BP's shoulder

Tailgate: So, what are you making?

*Beanpie jumps up and pushes Tailgate's hands off of him

Beanpie: You nasty little bugger! Get those little pee pee sausages off of me and wash your hands.
Tailgate: Sorry! Always Mr. Sensitive. Sometimes I wonder if you're my big brother or my big sister.
Beanpie: Whatever govy. What we have here is a solvent that will knock the dirt right off of any dish.
Tailgate: You're gonna bootleg dish washing liquid?
Beanpie: That's the idea
Tailgate: So, you're gonna hustle soap?
Beanpie: I said yes
Tailgate: Wait a minute, this from a guy they called "Deputy Dirt" in the high school yearbook?
Beanpie: Shut up and get out!!!
Tailgate (singing): I washed the sheriff, but I did not clean the deputy.

*Tailgate runs out of the bathroom

Beanpie: Alright, now to get this soap off and running.

*Beanpie starts mixing this liquid and adding numerous things until finally he is finished.

Beanpie: Aha, now to get the bottles.

My brother from another mother Khalid, just graduated from undergrad and going to purse his graduate in January. I only known him for a year and its seems like forever. He is down to earth, funny, and a music junkie. I was his apprentice learning how to DJ at the college parties on campus this past school year. It was DJ Kha Kha and DJ Tai Boogy on the 1's and 2's almost every Saturday. (Some Saturdays we were studying for that test or paper due on Monday lol) Even though he graduated, college friends last for a lifetime. Check out his blog The Everything Bagel
