A Critical Study Involving Live Fast Die
I know most of you readers are either out of school for the summer and don’t even want to think about anything considered “critical” or could care less but I was just reading some excerpts from this book “To The Extreme: Alternative Sports, Inside Out” and stumbled upon the BMX chapters. In Kyle Kusz’s essay BMX, Extreme Sports and The White Male Backlash he uses FBM’s “Live Fast Die” to back up his theories on the stereotypical angry white male, subcultures, and sports in general. It’s sort of interesting and available on every luddite’s enemy, Google Books, here (page 153).
That photo has nothing to do with FBM’s Live Fast Die but looks pretty cool and dude looks like he probably lived sorta fast.

Da Ol’ Jersey Bastard
Tame One, Da Ol’ Jersey bastard, the former Artifacts member, now reppin the Weathermen, this Newark, NJ native has over 25 years in the rap game. He has recorded a PCP themed album with Cage, an album with Del the Funkee Homosapien and his songs have been used in three Animal videos for Butcher’s sections. The most recent of which is an exclusive track he recorded for the new Animal video Cuts. If that doesn’t get you interested then I don’t know……subject matter touches on what them grimy east coast vets already know: substance abuse and PCP addiction, graffiti, dirty Jerz, being broke, triflin hoes, etc.
