"That Isht is Universal"

W'sup peoples,

I am currently down in Ecuador scouting locations for our first Hip Hop Karaoke: South American Edition. OK, not really. BUT while on a bus from Quito, the capital, to the city of Banos about 3 1/2 hours south, we hit this village with one dusty road that couldn't have had more than 50 people total, all of them selling empanadas, corn, or beads. Lo and behold, what do i see out of the corner of my eye on a big, wooden board but a crudely-drawn Wu W with "Wu-Tang" written below it. Unless it's Cappadonna desperate to keep the name alive, it was a nice reminder of how universal hip-hop is. ¨Wu-Tang es por los niños!¨ Happy Holidays and get those Rothko tickets!
