What’s up, everybody? It’s June 22nd, 2024. So excited about Manchester United. I’m a huge fan and supporter, and my little brother is a big Arsenal supporter. We’re going to see both of our respective teams play in a friendly clash for the MU Summer Tour (don’t forget to enjoy MU RADIO, my Rock N Roll and Alternative Music Radio Station) this summer in California. Very excited. #Football #Soccer #Bros #Guinness (or) #Heineken PS, Alex Ferguson, if you have a day off, please come over. Wear your Hublot watch, I will wear my SEIKO Japan watch.

PPS. Even more exciting, I think my little brother is finally buying himself a Playstation 5, meaning I can give him my red DualSense controller, that was his favorite PS4 gamepad color. EA SPORTS FC 24 or FC 25 ought to be fun next time around.

Until Next Time!

What’s up, everybody! It’s June 20th. Here’s a keynote video about #COVID19 and the brain, long story short, COVID-19 gives you “mental retardation.” Therefore, next time, people tell you not to get vaccinated and there’s a chip in it or some other bullshit, remember that vaccination is very important, that’s how Pediatricians vaccinate children at a young age, so that they do not fall deathly ill. In fact, before the age of 10, you receive about 10-12 vaccination shots. There is nothing more STUPID that rednecks who love to vaccinate their dogs, but refuse to vaccinate themselves. Over 1,000,000 dead Americans, because they listened to Trump instead of Doctors. I am embarassed. I have to watch King of the Hill, and play Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, just to explain to my fans and supporters who are in the realm of being conservative or country music fans, that you were CONNED BY TRUMP, and TRUMP KILLED ALL OF YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS, therefore, next time, vote for a Democrat. I don’t mean to always sound superior, I am not, I am simply a college (university) graduate. In case you didn’t know, there is essentially ZERO COLLEGE GRADUATES IN THE MAGA CULT. Get yourself an education, it can save your life. Mic drop.

BLOGPOST UPDATE IN PROGRESS

What’s up, everybody! It’s June 19th, 2024. Here’s another VLOG from March. I hope you were able to celebrate JUNETEETH in peace and tranquility (#BLM). Should you continue your celebration into the weekend, I have just released some new episodes of OMEGA RADIO, including special episodes 283, 284, 285, 286, and more. Future episodes into the 290s are on the way in due time. Enjoy. As always, the expression is “50 more years of Hip Hop.” Please understand that I am familiar with American and French Hip Hop. The next frontier is Japanese, German, and other countries who do Hip Hop. Did you know that Ukraine has Hip Hop Rappers? Even in the Middle East. There are even lots of Spanish-speaking Rappers, but I may save those for BUENO RADIO, my latin-dance-music station. We shall see. BUENO RADIO has a long journey of 3 years, until the World Cup in America/Mexico/Canada where my dream final: FRANCE versus MEXICO, with French Commentaries, and Spanish Commentaries. Quite possibly the greatest football (soccer) match of the 2020s decade. Let’s hope America can make it to the quarter-finals at the very least, but there’s a lot of work for them to do. Even my local club where I live has yet to make it to the MLS. Lots of work necessary.

What’s up, everybody! It’s June 18th 2024. Here are some VLOGs from early March 2024.

I hope you understand the dangers of not voting in the Presidential Elections, and Midterm Elections. I hope you understand what can happen if you do not vote in European Elections. Biden is losing 50/50 to Trump the Pedophile in America. Macron almost lost France to Front National / Rassemblement National (LePen / Les Nazis). It is imperative to #VoteBlueToSaveAmerica (vote Biden/Harris in November 2024) and vote Nouveau Front Populaire at the end of June and early July. This is what can happen when #MAGAcult + Russian/Chinese Hackers can take over Social Media platforms. These are the dangers when I cannot tweet from @IAMZAKI on Twitter. Look what happened after 1-2 months. Imagine the dangers between now and November 2024.

What’s up, everybody, it’s June 12th 2024. Now, every teenage girl in High School dealt with “Mean Girls.” I adored the first movie with Lindsey Lohan. The second movie was a bit too flamoyant. Hopefully, in Mean Girls 3, Lindsey Lohan will return and teach wisdom to the next generation.

I suggest we help the doctors/nurses/EMTs of Afghanistan, especially Doctors Without Borders, also known as Médecins Sans Frontières.

What’s up, everybody! First and foremost, that new Call of Duty Black Ops 6 trailer looks amazing. Great job by the team at RAVEN, and we all look forward to it. On 02-23-2024, people like JOCKO talked about ego, and the importance of not looking at your phone and paying attention. People also refused to acknowledge that they needed my help. Guess what happened that day, EVERYBODY WAS WAITING FOR ME, and I was not there. Why? I said I needed a new German-Engineering vehicle. I politely asked for an used A6. Then they made me wait. Then I said, donate an A7. Then they made me wait some more. Then I said A8, since I love The Transporter. They made me wait again. Guess what, now I want either an RS6 Avant or a RS7. Enjoy always relying on me and not paying me, on 02-23-2024, everybody had to admit it, we need ZAKI/ZACK/IAMZAKI and we completely forgot to give him a paycheck or funding for his VENMO/PAYPAL/GOFUNDME so that he may purchase himself his first new vehicle, since he first drove a car at 16. He is now 40 years old, and despite his fantastic work, resume, and portfolio, for some reason people are using the excuse that he spent all his money on Coffee. Listen you stupid fucks, even if I spent money almost every day at Starbucks for 17 years, that’s $17K. I worked over 25 years and collected paychecks, and still couldn’t afford a car, due to costs in health insurance. I’ve spent the last 10 fucking years, since 2014, on my startup/podcasts/etc. I want my fucking car. You are all depending on me you say. You are all waiting on me you say. The longest you make me wait, the more the demand increases. You should be lucky I ask for an RS7 now. If you keep this up, I will ask for a fucking Bentley, since it is owned by VW. I would love to own a RS4, unfortunately they are not available in USA anymore. Therefore I would settle for an RS5, RS6 or RS7. The RS3 is too small for me since I am very tall. I have an university education, 12 years of corporate experience. I’ve worked over 25 years including retail and about 5 years lately unpaid. If I am not the owner of a new vehicle in 2024, there clearly is a global conspiracy. Anyway, while we wait, the 2020 RS6 Avant is inside Need For Speed: Unbound Volume 6. Anyway, as always I am trying to introduce you all to French Rap, therefore, here’s a video from Skyrock FM, enjoy the music and a can of RedBull. More of their music available on OMEGA RADIO. There will be RnB music on future OMEGA RADIO episodes. PS. I will talk to Paramount Plus to speed up giving the greenlight Seal Team Season 7 ASAP. Their CEO got fired for being nonchalant.

Until Next Time!
