Hey there! It's been awhile (for no particular reason) I know. But I just wanted to let know know that I didn't forget about you. Anyway, it's show and tell time.
It's officially less than two days until I go to the Glow in the Dark tour featuring Ye, Lupe and N.E.R.D. in Chicago. Obviously, I cannot wait and I'll definitely be bringing a full report back. From what I've heard the special effects are crazy and this being the first time back in Chicago, Ye has to be doing something special. Hopefully the raps can match (I know live rap usually sucks) but I've got huge expectations for this one. This youtube video doesn't help to lower my expectations either.
In the spirit of the Glow in the Dark tour I got some new stuff with Lupe Fiasco. This Bun B and Lupe track is called Swing On 'Em. Lupe's verse is his typical amazing and something tells me that this summer the beat is gonna grow on me. Also, this is one of my favorite new jams from Crooked I featuring Akon called Big Dreams. Seriously, you didn't forget about Akon's hook prowess did you? Finally, I know in the last entry I posted Put On, which featuring Kanye stealing T-Pain's voice synthesizer and rapping, well, I think Ye passed it on to Usher. This track is called What's Your Name featuring Wil.I.am. I only post this because I know it will blow the fuck up and feel obliged to (and so what if i sing along when it does).
Also, there's a couple new Nas joints floating around the internet. The first one is TRE' Williams featuring Nas called I See You Coming and the second is off the new album no longer titled Nigger, called, you guessed it, N.I.G.G.E.R. (The Slave & The Master). Here's a new cut from Nappy Roots called Good Day. I know it's not gonna be everyone's cup of tea but I enjoy it, especially the last verse (even with the kids on the hook Scott). Finally, a song I've been bumpin' like crazy lately is The Dream's I Luv your Girl. Well's here's a remix to it featuring Fabolous (not Jeezy, no typo) who fuckin' kills it. Maybe most important is TI's jam No Matter What. Just download it, you don't even have to listen to it first.
The NBA has finally reached the conference finals and as I type this the Laker's and Spurs are playing in game one. Being an official member of the I hate everything San Antonio Spur club, I just wanted to post this masterpiece on how the world is not a good place when the Spurs are in the finals, coming to us care of the blog FanIQ.
Now it's time for a little ESPN bashing. The Stanley cup finals starts this Saturday, yet the only angle ESPN could find for a hockey story this week was a story about how hockey fans are backwoods, blood-thirsty tyrants who only desire fights. This pisses me the fuck off as a hockey fan and once again, the whole network can blow me, I'm not even going to post it. Hopefully the get the email I sent to the Ombudsman. Oddly enough, I'm not the only one that has an issue with ESPN.com Page 2's very own Bill Simmon's (the very enjoyable Sports Guy) has issue with his employer, who's cramping his style and trying to change it a la Stu Scott. Check out this except from a recent post. From background on the two going splitsville this interview with Simmon's. Sadly, I do care about this that much....fight the power.
This being the official outlet to bitch about the price of gas, I want to remind everyone that gas is four dollars a gallon and the government doesn't care about you.
Peace everyone.....OH WAIT...
How could I forget about the R. Kelly trial?....According to reports, Robert Kelly's lawyer's defense is anchored by the believe that they don't see nothing wrong with a little Bump N' Grind. Free R. Kel's T's coming to a blog near you.
