Don't Change



As we tip toe (no Xmas until the 20th rule BROKEN) gracefully towards the holidaze, toqued and jammied, it is a real Christmas miracle to receive today's mixtape. Seriously, on par with the immaculate birth of the world's most famous bearded dude.

Who? ME!
NO! Not you, Mcshane! Jesus!


ME!

NO! Not you fake Bunyan! Mcshane had a better chance! JESUS!


We sent Schimmer's new mixtape to @JesusHChrist, and this is the picture he emailed back.

The Winnipeg born, Montreal heeled, Charlotte NC based Schimmer is always on the list of Grilling It's favourite Djs. Schimmer is a disc jockey with a mandate to make you hand shake. That is to say, he plays feel good music for people to love themselves. It is for breeding not for brooding. His usual milieu is fresh re-contextualization and funk vacations through house, boogie, breaks, and raps that are as good for long haul road trips as they are for dancehall aerobics.

Much like the man himself: funky, upbeat, and full of heat.

Shake hands with yourself as you bask in the warm love of Schimmer.

Rap your presents.

Santa came down the Internet and went straight to the fridge. Gathering up all the beers, billowing smoke, he spoke with the wisdom of his years: "they're for my reindeer."

A Matter Of Style (Ball)


A Poem, by Jason Parker Quinton

I Am Very Proud Of Myself For Not Napping


To be a true baller you must master the following three concepts:

1) Be happy where you are
2) No care what anyone thinks
3) Give generously of your time, money, and spirit

If you can't give it you don't got it. If you aint got it, you aint balling.



What do you do if a mountain is there?
(move it)
How do you answer to a challenge in today?
(take it)
When your back's against the wall?
(fake it)
What do you do when you've done it all?
(ball)

-Ray Steezvens

It wouldn't be cool not to play you out with this classic Grilling It choon.
