My Videos : People Out There Love Me...

Hi All

Okay, I can now confirm that I have secret admirers, lovers, stalkers, and potential freaks that want me (or at least my friends). As you may know, I mashaAllah recently went to Madrid and London for a nice one week mini-vacation (well, Madrid was technically for work, but it wasn't like it was crazy busy or anything like that). So, tonight I finally had some time to upload some fun video clips from Madrid to my favorite website - Google Video - and decided to take a look at this "Reports" section for my account. Well, what's really friggen cool is that you're allowed to take a look at your Viewing Information and see how many people have viewed your clips and downloaded them, too.

So, now, this is the pretty cool and equally scary part of it:
My video clip called, "Imran's New York Trip" has been viewed a total of 1585 times. Look, I know that you're gonna say that about 1580 of those views could be credited to me, but I assure you (for once), this just isn't true. Further, the video clip (which has been on there since early January 06) has been downloaded 20 times!!

So people out there...who the hell are you? Where do you come from? What's your name? Why are you so interested in me? And are you a single, attractive, and nice Muslim girl? (If 'yes' to that last question, please email me!)

Haha, okay, I admit: it is a little presumptious and arrogant to think that 'random' people are out there doing this when it could (and is most likely the case) be my friends, but just allow me to humor myself. It's doing a nice number on my ego, man.

So the Imran's New York Trip clip is the one, from feedback I've received, that's the best b/c it's me 'singing' (though I have since learned that what I qualify as 'singing' is actually considered attempted murder in some states) to a Kelly Clarkson song and then I subsequently get really excited and very ghetto upon seeing the highway exit sign for Manhattan... [sigh, good times...]

The next most popular one is called Imran, Erik, Taha: Hoopage. Now, the popularity of this one I kinda resent. It shows Taha ridiculing me by addressing me as 'Hey, Fat Man' like I was some out-of-fashion former superhero or something. To upstage T-Man, I showcase some of my basketball, well, let's just say 'skills.' Anyway, you'll be surprised to know that my little talent show was received with vicious (snake-like, in fact) snickers by Erik and Taha. Jerks!

The third most popular Imran video clip is called Farooq & Imran: King Kong, Dawah. You know what? I kinda resent this one being so popular, too, because Farooq had the gall to draw parallels between my masculine physique and King Kong's. I'm not sure how I should take that? Specifically, after showing the Empire State Building in NYC, Farooq commented, "...and Imran's king kong ass is gonna climb that..." That hurts, man. How many people did you fwd that to, Farooq?

So, my loyal and most likely drunk 'fans', please continue to watch these video clips. I appreciate and value your committment to everything that's ME. In fact, just yesterday you people viewed the Imran's New York Trip clip 9 times as well as Imran Shakur vs Taha Ghani (hmm, wonder who viewed that second one, Taha?!). Soon enough, you'll all fulfill my dream of appearing on the 'Popular' or maybe even 'Random' links on Google Video. So, until then!

Alright, those were your higlights of the top three clips. Just thought I'd share that with all ya punks! Look out for four new clips from Madrid coming soon...!

Chow!
