The following in from the Canberra Musicians Club:

    Pimps and Pornstars: Coolio Desgracias steps forward to drop his first salvo.

    What: Coolio Desgracias CD Launch
    When: Saturday 28th March. 8pm, doors 7pm
    Where: Corroboree park hall, Ainslie
    Who: Coolio Desgracias, Los Chavos, Mechanical Pterodactyl, Sanjiva De Silva and Professor Anarchy
    How much: $15 entry/ $12 concession/ $10 for Canberra Musicians Club members.
    Coolio Desgracias CDs $10

    Presented by The Canberra Musicians Club and Astroblack Productions, Pimps and Pornstars will launch Coolio Desgracias’ debut album. Besides Coolio himself the featured acts include the Sri Lankan Bob Dylan Sanjiva De Silva, the mid-west mauler Professor Anarchy, the divine Mechanical Pterodactyl and dance favourites Los Chavos! There will be a break-dancing competition, prizes for the best dressed and more! Pimps and Pornstars is a licensed event and food will be available.

    Representing North Canberra, Coolio was born and raised with hip hop. He was there when Herbie Hancock’s Rock It won a grammy, saw Breakdance and Beatstreet at the movies and was in high school during the golden age of hip hop. Taking a leaf out of Outkast’s book, Coolio seeks to bring the hip hop to any style he inhabits. Whatever he does will always be that pimp shit, that freshly baked schwarzwald kirsch kuchen shit.

    Armed with a swag of original material, some help from Canberra’s music community, copious amounts of ginger beer and a house full of instruments, Coolio spent January 2009 recording his first album. The result is a mixture of hip hop, funk, disco and country that will get your toes tappin’, your hands clappin’ and start any party right. For the moment Coolio is solely a studio project but there are plans for him to tread the boards in the future. He will make a special appearance at the cd launch.

    Be there y’all!!!

Kizzle, they will be waiting for you in Fyshwick and will be more than happy to see you after the launch to compare outfits.

Where are the hoes?

Yo! Hit me with that freshly baked schwarzwald kirsch kuchen shit already!

Ohhhhhhhh, cake!!

Mmmm. Cake….

It’s just the German name for Black Forest Cake, although as a noun Schwarzwald should properly be capitalised.

Most people know what a pimp is. What needs explaining is ‘schwarzwald kirsch kuchen shit’. And do it soon…

“pimp” when used as an adjective means flashy / ostentatious. The etymology is from the loud over-the-top outfits pimps were reputed to get around in (the kind of fashion you can get from pimphats.com).

Can anyone translate this into English for me?

No points for originality with that theme.

The event doesn’t really sound all that bad, but he hasn’t done himself any favours with a title like that. It’ll be going on the places to avoid list.

“Whatever he does will always be that pimp shit, that freshly baked schwarzwald kirsch kuchen shit.”
So what does the promotor mean by that “pimp shit?”
Will he be beating on his “ho’s” or something..
