I'm back,
Malaysia was cool.
Well actually it's hotter than hell.
Tropical weather all year long, hot and humid 24/7.
It was nice though, Muslim country split in half.
The Muslims are in the West and everyone else in the East.
I was in the West with all the Muslim cats.
It's a trip, you do see a few Christians, Budhists, and Hindus.
But just a handful. All the women cover their heads at the very least. And some of the men wear traditional Islamic gear.
Shit I could've sworn our cab driver was the prophet Mohammed himself.
The people are real friendly, and there is very little crime there.
Shit, the immigration form visiters have to sign has a small warning written at the bottom. It reads, "Warning, drug smuggling is punishable by death in Malaysia"....
Kinda intimidating eh?
It's actually the 3rd time I go out there.
So I kinda know my way around.
Kuala Lumpur is dope, that where you find them twin towers. The tallest building in the world.
I gotta say though, they love hip hop over there.
Problem is, they only listen to what's popular over here, meaning Nelly, 50 Cent, and Eminem.
Shit I got to listen to some Malaysian rappers, not bad.
I had a few demo cd's of our own shit, and they loved them.
I took Lynch's new album, some Pac and Techn9ne and they was lovin it. So they like rap in general.
Shit, my girl's brother kept my Darkroom Familia cd.
I got to kick it with some Brittish cats.
But I tell you, as a Latino.....
Man I saw no fucking Latinos over there.
I got to see a handful of black cats, most of them were from the UK or Africa. Got to see some white folks but they were all Europeans. But I'll be damn, I was the only Mexican there.
It makes you feel isolated then a mutha but at the same time it's cool feeling so far away from home.
The best thing about Malaysia is all the piracy imported from Hong Kong. I get tons of cheap ass PC software, video games, etc. Even movies, all bad quality though. But hey, you get to watch Terminator 3 at home for about 2 bucks.
We took a weekend vacation to Northern Malaysia in Sarawak. World known for it's head hunter villagers in the jungles.
I got to seem some of these cats. Not a pleasent site, most of them are half naked.
I was tryin to take a picture with like the last real head hunter alive but the tour guide was scared to go into the jungle.
It's a trip how these villagers are identical with the Indigenous people found all over the Americas. Shit they even do their rain dances and wear feathers.
