Uconn is Stacked

 

I know everyone is in NFL mode but I still gotta keep a eye on my defending Champs the Uconn Huskies mens basketball team.  The Huskies and a whole bunch of other top colleges and Universities have been recruiting one of the nations top 5 big men, Mr. Andre Drummond. Uconn has a history of landing talented big men like, Emeka Okafur and Hasheem Thabeet, just to name a few. Now that Drummond has declared to come to Uconn this fall instead of attending prep school, this puts the Huskies right back into title contention for the next few years, since the Champs started 3 freshman in the 2010-2011 season the future looks bright.   

Watch The Throne - Review

Watch the Throne has officially been released to the world, and its another great album. I was fortunate to get a early digital copy of the album, so I listened front to back, and on shuffle, just to make sure I could appreciate each song individually. I think the album is a classic Jay-Z style album as far as song selection is concerned infused with great Kanye beats. The lyrics are also dope because each rapper expresses their wealthy lifestyle and personal life issues with great metaphors, mixing current slangs with exclusive name drops normally known only to the rich & famous. But they both have a way of making you feel whatever tax bracket you fall under, you are a baller just like them. Go support and join the Throne.

Waddup Harlem

 
KB oops I'm sorry, I mean KD, Kevin Durant has proved himself in the NBA as one of the current and future superstars to carry the torch.  His game is crazy and now he has brought it to the hood to prove to Harlem USA what his street game is all about.  He dropped 66points in the world famous Rucker Park and had the crowd going wild after hitting 5 straight 3's from about half court.  I give much props to any NBA baller who steps into the Rucker and displays their skills for true fans.  Its one thing to play organized coached basketball, but the Rucker demands your roots, wherever a baller comes from.  Who got next??

Football is Back Baby

Wow, after months and months of arguing and fighting over billions the NFL owners and NFL players have finally come to agreement on how to split revenue. As a football fan all my life I am ecstatic to hear this news. I never actually thought this lockout would cost actual games but the season has been slowly creeping up on us, which made today's news pretty clutch. I do wonder what type of effect it has on the game though, will the players be off cue, will there be a lot of procedural penalties, quality rookie players, or just overall trust in the team? I'm pretty sure the first few weeks will be a little rough but I think we are in for a treat. Are You Ready For Some Football!!!(Hank Williams Jr. Voice)

Watch The Throne Otis

Just heard this on the radio the other day, Flex played it for about 45mins straight..lol.. But in true Jay-Z form after about 12hours on the net it was basically removed from every legit site pushing music.  Thanks to my college education I was able to do a little trickery and get my hands on the official, so let the sharing continue.

Carbon Foams

 

Whooo!!! Nike is really doing there thing with the foamposites the past 10 months. Here is a sneak peak of a few carbon fiber foams that may or may not hit the streets, but i know regardless what happens sneaker heads will love these.

Not Again

With the NFL already locked out, the NBA has come to the same crossroads and threaten  to sacrifice the entire 2011/2012 season.  Will we have any sports to look forward to this fall and winter??

2 Pac Back!!!

Rozay is back at it again with a more solid team, Meek Mill & Wale, because we all know Ross's homeboy Gunplay is a trash rapper.  The marketing plan MMG came up with is genius by releasing the video to their hit single Tupac Back the same day as the late great rappers would be 40th birthday.  The Self Made crew isn't the only ones in the spotlight in relation to Pac, according to Billboard.biz a incarcerated associate of Jimmy Henchmen has confessed to the 1994 Quad Studio's shooting. Dexter Isaac told authorities “Now I would like to clear up a few things, because the statute of limitations is over, and no one can be charged, and I'm just plain tired of listening to your lies," he went on to claiming he was paid $2,500 and kept jewelry stolen from Shakur during the shooting.  If this story is true then this would be huge to the Hip Hop world, but we all know that convicts can't be trusted.  Through all the lies and cover ups, I don't think we will ever know the truth, all we can do is let 2 Pac rest in peace and enjoy his influence on our beloved Hip Hop Culture.

The Next Best Thing

I need a new phone, and luckily for me i'm a free agent this summer. I have the option to either stick with my current carrier, or change teams. I take into consideration, home team loyalty, monthly bill, and of coarse the available phones. With that said my only option is to stick with the home team and get the new HTC EVO 3D. It is a 4G phone, and is the 1st and only 3D phone, without the need of glasses to view 3D content. I'm pretty excited for this phone because my bill won't be as high as an iPhone plan, and the Android market offers just as much apps as iTunes. There currently is no concrete release date or price for this phone but due to my loyalty I should be able to pre-order and charge to my account, which means no money out of pocket. This deal is done.
