Capone of CNN just dropped some new music especially for 4/20.  Nice lil’ joint (pun intended) produced by RoadsArt and featuring Pone’s man Haiti.  As long as they’re freshly packed, weed songs never get stale.  Follow Capone on Twitter @CaponeQB to keep up with his latest endeavors.  Last time I checked, he and his longtime […]

Starbucks was founded in Seattle and recreational marijuana will be legal in Washington as of tomorrow, so it only makes sense that the state becomes the new Amsterdam with cannabis coffee shops sprouting up everywhere.  Escaping New York (a.k.a. Bloomberg’s Kingdom of the Rich) has been on my mind lately and Washington is now a […]

Usain Bolt is a record-breaking, four-time Olympic gold medalist but now the sprinter’s legacy is truly complete.  Marijuana dispensaries in Orange County, California are selling a new strain of weed called “Usain Bolt OG” as a tribute to the fastest man in the world.  With this honor, Mr. Bolt has finally arrived. Bolt admitted to […]

It’s always a blessing to open my mailbox and find something other than a pile of bills. My friends at Girls Gone Weed sent me a care package full of goodies, bringing joy to an otherwise mediocre week.  If you’ve been at The Spizzy for a while you already know how much I adore GGDub’s […]

BAD NEWS BY KHALID STRICKLAND a.k.a. BLACK PACINO *Sigh* This is a huge blow to my “Bucket List.” One of my goals in life is to travel to the Netherlands and get smoked-out at Amsterdam’s famed marijuana coffee shops.  But unless I beam over there right now via Star Trek transporter, that magical trip won’t […]

Damn! Even the crib ain’t a safe haven for tokers no more. Look what my cousin T showed me at The Gothamist: The Supreme Court has ruled that if cops are passing by your hotbox and they smell reefer, they’re legally entitled to kick your door down without a warrant if they think you’re destroying […]

PACINO718 SAYS FUCK THE MAINSTREAM Brother Hood 603, the street-minded rap duo hailing from BKNY (Gunset Park), is the shit.  The brothers who comprise the group, Thanos & Arewhy, score A’s in both production and lyrics. I’ve already posted the joint they did with my man Lost Soul, “We Don’t Play.” Now, they’ve teamed-up with […]

PRESCRIBED BY DR. PACINO718 Propostition 19, the Marijuana Legalization Initiative, was defeated on the California ballot this November 2nd.  Still, I think Mary Jane will eventually be decriminalized and cigarettes will be prohibited in its place.  But that’s another story.  For now, we discuss advances in toker technology. WeedMaps.com is a community where medical marijuana […]

WORDS BY PACINO718 PHOTOS BY HIGH TIMES MAGAZINE There are two types of marijuana user: Average smokers, who puff dirt so long as the bag is phat… and true connoisseurs who believe in quality over quantity. I fall in the latter category, that’s why I went to the magazine store and copped Best of High […]
