Golden Tate Did Not Catch That Pass

"The Recipe" - Kendrick Lamar ft. Dr. Dre

Dope new track. Kendrick is by far the illest rapper out right now. Try me with someone else. Just wait, when Good Kid in a Mad City drops, game over. Michael Jordan.

Advertising @ it's finest

At least Alejandro is happy...

13-year old Iranian Girl Sings "Someone Like You."

Beauty is the feeling of goosebumps. The goosebumps that scatter themselves across my body acknowledge the beauty in this young girl's honest passion and love for the music she sings, and for those friends/family that she seemingly sings to. From country to country, beauty cannot be denied. Misunderstood, maybe. But misunderstanding is not absolute, and only needs time to be resolved. It only takes time for one to realize how beautiful this camcorder video of Tara singing in a garage is. How honest it feels in its simplicity, and how speechless the voice of one young child can make us. And while my goosebumps escalate as Tara makes her way through the chorus, allowing her voice to trail off so desperately romantic, I patiently wait for those goosebumps to emerge within another so together, we can feel the beauty of goosebumps without saying a word.

Alex Day - Rubbish is the Majors

Interesting story about Alex's major label encounter. It's funny that major labels, who have been damaged the most from the Internet Revolution, haven't learned to master the "little things" that would matter to an artist. At one time, and for a long time, the Majors had clout and leverage over the artist. The Label had resources the artist wanted, and so the Label could leverage their resources to make the artist want them. Nowadays, and Alex is a perfect example of this, its the label that should want the Artist. Thus, the label should know Alex's "other songs," or have an idea of what they can do for Alex, BEFORE meeting him in person. Labels, whether indie or major, have to take this approach or else Musician's, like Alex, will just continue to do their thing DIY and assemble the needed tools "in-house." They've already proved that they can do so.

Check out Alex's hit song "Forever Yours" below.

Wale - The Cloud ft. Tiara Thomas

A dope track and a dope video with some finely rolled B's. Love Wale. Attention Deficit is a classic. Peep it. And Peep the retro all-star jersey from the '95 game in Phoenix. Dopeness. Question is though, why Scottie Pippen's jersey?

R.I.P. Nate Dogg

Rest in Peace to one of the greatest hook-delivering R&B singers of all-time. Nate, real name Nathaniel D Hale, suffered from 2 strokes over recent years which may have contributed to his death. A true legend in Hip-Hop, Nate Dogg, you will truly be missed

Myck Kabongo - Sick High School Point Guard

I saw this dude play on ESPN the other day. Right now he plays for Findlay Prep in Nevada and next year he'll be going to Texas. Rick Barnes is going to have fun with this guy. P.S. He's a Canadian! Cue Michael Buble outro music.

Lebron ain't got shit on the Greatest

About a month ago I posted a video by the people of Cleveland responding to Lebron James' "What should I do" commercial. Now the Great One himself has responded to Lebron's arrogant statement. I respect MJ for teaching the boy a lesson on what it takes to be a man and take his message to heart in my own way. I also perceive this as a taunt by Michael, who is notorious for being a vicious competitor, by reasserting his title as the greatest basketball player ever. Lebron was likely the only player so far in history that could battle Jordan for that title. Kobe has the rings, but has never had the numbers that Jordan had. Lebron had the numbers, Numbers that were better than Jordan's, but just needed the rings. The rings could have come... now they don't even matter.
