I'M ITALIAN

2011-09-18T12:36:00.000-04:00

Meeting 2mor with Blackbox Productions!!

2011-09-08T10:26:00.000-04:00

Blackbox is the production company that shot the "I'm Italian" video, I'm meeting with them tomorrow to take a look at the final cut of the video!! Me and Tommy Rosario from Blackbox have seen eye to eye on all aspects of this project so far so I'm sure I'm going to like what I see. We are literally days away from this premier!! Word has spread fast about the song and I have co-workers coming up to me telling me that they can't wait to see the video, this makes me very nervous and after you see it's content you'll know why!!

"Getting Anxious"

2011-08-30T11:05:00.001-04:00

Hopefully this week sometime I'l get to see a rough draft of the "I'm Italian" video, I have total faith in my boy Tommy and I know it's gonna look money!!

Now to decide which project to work on next....

1) Raw Dog Song
2) Brolic
3) Doodle Song
4) My Mom thinks I'm the nicest
5) Darkness
6) Blood Runs Cold
7) A Tight Situation
8) Through these eyes
9) Sucker for love
etc...
Something tells me the Raw Dog Song will be the funnest video to shoot!!

"How stupid do they think I am?"

2011-08-24T14:36:00.000-04:00

Got a call today from a casting agency telling me that I match the profile perfectly to act in a movie featuring Johnny Depp and Nicole Kidman, and the job pays 800 to 900 dollars a day!! So of course I say "OK where's this audition?" So he tells me in the thickest Indian accent I've ever heard that before he can give me the information that I have to pay 120.00 dollars for him to be my talent advisor for the next 6months. As if I want a guy who I can barely understand to be my talent advisor!! First of all, I feel I need nobody!! There is no need to be stifled by agencies, I am going to stay focused on MY projects and open my own window! And while there will always be somebody trying to keep me down, I'm confident in the fact that I'm retardedly talented and diagnosed with up-syndrome as I continue to pass even my own expectations!!

"IT'S A WRAP"

2011-08-20T09:29:00.000-04:00

Making this video was a f*cking blast, but I'm happy to say it's finally over!! I'm still amazed at how much work went into a video that's only 4min long, but no matter what happens it's all been worth it just watching it come together. Last nite was a total success. I really wanna thank everybody who came out and supported the project, this thing could'nt of gotten done without you!!

"Google's Holding Me Back"

2011-08-11T10:21:00.000-04:00

Google was soo mad about how much money I made in such a short period of time, that they raped me for my advertisements!! With over 1,300 hits in only 2 weeks, the advertisers will surely regret it when my traffic quadrupels after this video drops!! I will be moving this blog to a different site shortly just to give everyone a heads up. Anyway back to the real, our final shoot is just about a week away and I can smell the finish line!! It's been a long time coming and to be honest I'm looking foward to moving on to the next project, but I need to stay focused!! I have about a dozen more songs in the works but rhino vision is key at this point! Next friday should be alot of fun, I have the place for 4-5 hours so hopefully we can bang out the shots we need and spend the rest of the evening celebrating!!!

"CASTING CALL"

2011-08-05T21:36:00.000-04:00

Save the date!!! Friday August 19th. Calling all guidos, guidettes, party people, and supporters who want to come out and be apart of the "I'M ITALIAN" VIDEO!!!!! Yes finally...the date is set for our final shoot day, which will be FRIDAY AUGUST 19th at the Colonial Inn from 7pm to 11pm!! Its a Club Scene so everybody come looking daper, sexy, and ready to have some drinks, fun, and possibly hear my song a few times!!

"Lunchtime Is Crunchtime"

2011-08-05T09:43:00.000-04:00

Gotta maximize free time to bang this out, shooting on my lunch break today!! My Director Tommy Rosario showed me some of what he edited so far and it's looking awesome!! I'm getting really excited and motivated now to finish this thing, I will know the date for the club scene tonite so stay posted!!!

"GET INSIDE MALIZIA"

2011-08-03T17:21:00.000-04:00

Got an interview tomorrow at Kaufman Astoria Music & Sound with Matt Lehtola from Breakthruradio!! I'm gonna let Mr. Lehtola and the rest of the world know exactly where I'm coming from and I'm not just talking about Italy!!

Club Scene Coming Soon!!

2011-08-01T16:33:00.000-04:00

Me and my crew have accomplished a lot but theres still plenty to go!! I still need to get my shots for the scenes that take place in the night club! Ok so Bioggio's is OUT!! I have a meeting with the owner of the Colonial Inn this weekend, and I will have a definite date at that time. The owner agreed to open the bar for us, and they will be serving beer and wine to keep everyone from getting restless during the shoot. Of course I was able to work that out even before I got a time and date for this thing, but hey what can I say I keep my priorities straighter than my liquor at 9:15!!

Pics from Saturday that fell thru the cracks!!

2011-07-27T19:10:00.001-04:00

"Ok Joe this scene calls for meat sauce,
so why don't you go ahead and put some sausage in there!!"

"When you stand behind your old lady
do you think maybe you could be just a little more misogynistic?"

"With the rite amount of cover up,
I should be able give your nose more of a petite appearance"

On lookers wait for this miracle to occur.

"Almost done let me just add some finishing touches and voila!!"

"Ummm...Yea maybe just put some shades on him"

"It could be worst Jamie, instead of being accosted by a connoli
you could be doing a scene with a ball python like my last model,
look up for inspiration!!"

Does anyone else feel like Pee Wee Herman
could sit down next to Jorgey at any moment??

Don't sweat it Jamie this is the last picture of your crouch!!

"OFF TOPIC"

2011-07-26T16:11:00.000-04:00

My girl said "Before I met you I never listened to the lyrics"
I said "That's precisely why Hip Hops only here in spirit"
How do I give food for thought when nobody's brains thinking
Can't quench your thirst for knowledge by smart water drinking
The artist wouldn't be starving if the consumer stayed hungry
Let's resurrect conscience words like Christ on Sunday!!!

"WETTER THAN THE MOZZ"

2011-07-23T23:59:00.000-04:00

2011-07-22T11:59:00.000-04:00

RARELY DO YOU GET TO SEE BEHIND THE PEOPLE WHO ARE BEHIND THE SCENES!!

SOMETHING'S FISHY AT THE MALIZIA RESIDENCE!!

"Get the hell outta my shop otherwise Pizza's gonna call out for YOU!!"

"OK TIM PRETEND THESE ARE JAMIE'S BOOBS,

"Jamie I know I'm a sexy baker so I was expecting the cream
but where the hell did these chocolate chips cum from???"

F*ck two & a half men we got two Gavones & a Guido!!
While Sheen's bangin goddesses and 7 gram rocks
were bangin our mistresses and 7 gram meatballs!!

"Ok Joe now when you insert the Cannoli make sure you...matter a fact let me just show you what I mean"

I felt as if she was gonna hit me with some sort of cooking utensil throughout the entire day!!
Thanks for holding back Jenn!!

THIS IS WHAT XMAS IS ALL ABOUT RITE HERE!!

"I"M GONNA STAND UP HERE JUST IN CASE SHE"S A SQUIRTER"

MOZZARELLA CHEESE'N

"OK KIDS GATHER AROUND I"M GONNA TEACH YOU GUYS SOME SEX ED ITALIAN STYLE!!!"

MY FIRST CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENT!!
NATALE'S PIZZERIA KICKS ASS!!

"MOMMY WHERE DO CANNOLIS COME FROM??"

Tommy directing my fathers projectile while I eat the props!!

Tommy giving Justin direct orders, Sean's like " I don't think that's such a good idea buddy!!"

Brian keeping an eye on Sean to make sure he doesn't pull a "Hansel & Gretel" on him!!

The guys on the end have no idea what's going on!!
Little did they know that they were Italian for all of 10 seconds!!

This was the shortest scene of the day yielding the most amount of pictures!
Jamie your a rockstar!!

ME HARD AT WORK WHILE MY WOMENS SLACKING OFF!!

PREP'N THE PARM!!

Everybody in this room knows that I do not need make-up,
that's like painting over a Picasso??

DID THAT SLICE OF PIZZA JUST TURN EVIL??

"IF I WASN'T ITALIAN WHY THE HELL WOULD I BE WEARING THIS SHIRT?"

JOLI & JORGEY founding members of team AWESOME!!

THERE WERE A LOT OF LAUGHS TO SAY THE LEAST!!

AND NO IT DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH ME IN THESE SHADES!!

Jenn looks like she's from the 50's, Gia looks like she's from the 80's
and Tim from the future like "WTF"

Of course my old lady isn't happy
she's cooking and cleaning and I'm Cannoling some guidette in the living room!!
"Why? CAUSE I'M ITALIAN!!"

"If I have to deliver another baby with my bare hands

FORGET A BUN, THERE"S A LOAF OF ITALIAN BREAD IN THIS OVEN!!

"HEY MAMA WHAT DOES MALIZIA MEAN IN ITALIAN?"

"IT MEANS BAD ASS MOTHERF*CKER!!"

"YEA THAT SOUND ABOUT RITE!!"

"HEY IS THERE ITALIAN STUFF GOING ON IN THAT KITCHEN?"

Blood is thicker than sauce!!!

2011-07-18T14:03:00.000-04:00

More shots on Saturday than an alchy when he binges
Although the day was dope we weren't shootin with syringes
Cause the man in the back had the Cannon for that
Capturing every moment like Sals hand when he smacked
...Me in the dome twice
Brian was my home slice
Jenn was my house wife
With curlers in her hair with a stare like "I hate this"
When Sean poured the sauce she was not a happy waitress
Justin's drinkin the props with his hand on the brew
O'callihan mad at me like "Who the fuck you talkin to?!"
Joli kept us on track like locomotive coals
And special thanks to Jamie even the cannoli felt at home
The whole damn day flowed steady like the Nile
I don't think anyone was ready for my dads projectile
But the parm wasn't vile cause my mom made the food
And Gia's experience for sure set the mood
Everybody stay-tuned they'll be pictures posted soon!!!

Hope Everyones Ready For 2mor!!

2011-07-15T11:00:00.000-04:00
