joaquin the mic

when then actor joaquin pheonix announced that he'd be hanging it up in favor of a music career, i imagined that he'd be doing some country ish, maybe a little indie rock, something with some synth perhaps. but the "walk the line" star, currently channeling rick rubin with a big, overgrown zz top beard, has other ideas. when asked whether his announced rap career was a joke, pheonix responded that while his career may be perceived as "laughable," he's dead serious. and you know what? i like the homeless guy swag. and maybe it's the poor video quality, but his flow is reminiscent of trick daddy.

hmmm...
