Drake was asked if this year’s list is tarnished because XXL had to find two other people to put on the XXL 2010 Freshman Class because he and Nicki Minaj declined. He's respones was that they were “Freshmen” last year too and that he’s just “returning the favor” translation: *middle finger*.
This video shows a behind-the-scenes peek into the The Hundreds headquarters as well as some insightful commentary by Bobby Hundreds. The Hundreds easily have the best web site of any brand. Period.
Audi RS5 ($104,000). This thing is MEAN! Thanks to a 4.2-liter, 450hp V8 engine, a dual-branch intake and exhaust system, and a seven-speed S tronic transmission with two clutches and two subsidiary transmissions for lightning-fast shifts, and also offers high-end features like quattro permanent all-wheel drive, optional 20-inch wheels, a powerful and internally ventilated disc braking system, an MMI navigation system, and Xenon HID headlamps. I know I just dreaming right now but....is there anything wrong with that!? I added a video below just so you could see how it handles.
Naledge & Double-O sat down for a quick interview with Bongoboy. They talk about how they met, working with Justin Blaze & who they want to work with in the future. Naledge also spits a pretty dope verse freestyle. I've said it time & time again, that Naledge doesn't get the respect that he's due because he's in a group.
Came across this video on Kanye's Blog. I'm a sucker for a song with dope horns! This track has a very old school feel to it. Mayer Hawthrone is a "real soulful dude"!
Cudi is featured on his fav rapper Snoop's new song off the Malice N Wonderland re-release, More Malice (March 23rd). I haven't gave the Snoop album a listen. Simply because I normally don't care for Snoop unless he's being produced by Pharrell & Chad. *shrug* Seriously, how many nephews does Snoop have?!
I love honesty and people keeping it real. So for a grown man to admit the crazy things he did (and may still do) for a woman is real. Because men will go out of there way and bare there souls for a woman. And not always for sex but sometimes just to see them smile. I personally love smiles because I love to see people happy. So I put this song for all my people who I love there smile. Some smiles that stand out to me are Andrea, Rachael, Orri, Hershey, Joya, Claytrice, Ayanna, Munchkin, Lene, Alisha, Zanefa (she has three dimples ;) ), Coco, Brittany, Crystal, Nece... I could just keep going but a smile can light up the room and change the mood. Share one.
Here's a new one from The Dream, supposedly the first single off of his next project Love King. The song is entitled, well..., "Love King." If you're familiar with Dream's style and production team then the formula on this track shouldn't be a surprise... which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
You know, it wasn't until recently that I realized this a solo album for Ludacris and not a joint venture with him and Shawnna. Wasn't they supposed to do an album together??? *Shrugs* N-E-way...

I was doing my usual web searches and stumbled across some information that i thought was funny and wondered whether it was factual or not, my XY chromosomes, please let me know if this is true, and XX chromosomes, please let me know what you think as well. Here we go:
Men's Rules-Women should learn these!
Women, learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.
Birthdays, Valentines, and Anniversaries are not considered by us to be opportunities to see if we can find the perfect present again!
Sometimes we are not thinking about you. Live with it.
Sunday = sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.
Don't cut your hair. Ever. Long hair is always more attractive than short hair. One of the big reasons guys fear getting married is that married women always cut their hair, and by then you're stuck with her.
Ask for what you want. Subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!
We don't remember dates. . . .Period!!
Most guys own three pairs of shoes - tops. What makes you think we'd be any good at choosing which pair, out of thirty, would look good with your dress?
Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.
Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.
If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.
If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us. We've been tricked before!!
If something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.
Let us ogle. We are going to look anyway; it's genetic.
You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.
Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.
Christopher Columbus did not need directions, and neither do we.
The relationship is never going to be like it was the first two months we were going out. Get over it. And quit whining to your girlfriends.
ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.
If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.
We are not mind readers and we never will be. Our lack of mind-reading ability is not proof of how little we care about you.
If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing", we will act like nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.
If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.
Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as navel lint, the shotgun formation, or monster trucks.
Foreign films are best left to foreigners. (Unless it's Bruce Lee or some war flick where it doesn't really matter what they're saying anyway.)
BEER is as exciting for us as handbags are for you.
Young Mula Baby! Seriously, is Bow Wow really signed to Young Money?! Because he hasn't been in any YM videos or on any songs. He wasn't even at Wayne's going away party last week after the super bowl.
As many know, I am a PC (and proud of it). I have used Windows Mobile for some time now and have been hearing rumors of Windows Mobile 7 since the Windows Mobile 6 update. With the addition of both the iPhone and Android mobile operating systems, it looked like all hope was lost for Microsoft. After much anticipation, Windows Phone 7 Series was unveiled in Barcelona, Spain (on February 15) at the Mobile World Congress event. An extensive preview of the OS was given and I must say that Microsoft has potential to re-establish itself as a mobile contender and not just an alternative. The OS sports a whole new UI (User Interface) that centers around bringing all your apps, information and web services together in what VP of Program Management at MS, Joe Belfiore, deemed “Hubs”. Below are videos that demo the OS. Enjoy!!
Windows Phone 7 Series Features
Windows Phone 7 Series Demo
SideBar – In my ongoing quest to find my next (an hopefully last) phone I stumbled across the HTC HD2 (here is the original post). It has been confirmed that the HD2 will be coming to T-Mobile this year, but the best part is the extra goodies that come with the U.S. version of the phone (as opposed to the Euro version). It comes with a 16GB Micro SD card (instead of 2GB). The RAM was increased from 448MB to 576MB, while the ROM was doubled from 512MB to 1GB. The ROM increase is significant because that means the HD2 should be able to run Windows Phone 7. As promised in the first post, I will do a review of the phone when I get it and if the HD2 receives a Windows Mobile 7 update, I will do a software review as well!
For those of you that don’t know who this is, it’s Cooper Projects own Joell Ortiz. You may have heard him on his first smash joint, Hip Hop (New York needed that). He is also part of the Slaughterhouse camp. Listening to this song bought me back to a more simpler time, before bills and kids. The beat is hot and Joell steps up to bat as usual.
Yeah, I know! I should have posted this commercial a week ago, because it aired during the Super Bowl. But since I never posted it on LCA, no one saw it...RIGHT?! Anyway, this is a remake of the classic and one of my fav commercials of all time... OF ALL TIME! McDonalds commercial featuring Micheal Jordan & Larry Bird playing H-O-R-S-E.
I've been saying this for years. There's a double standard when it comes to dirt people do. Men do dirt and they're "the man" and "players". Women do it and they're "gardening tools" and a smorgsaborg of unflattering terms. I'm glad Luda addresses this. Don't hate the "players" hate the game. Only play games u can win kids. Unfortunately relationships are a gamble.
If you don't think J. Cole is next. Please send your emails or concerns to thegreat042@yahoo.com and I'll be happy to send you a razor in the mail so u can kill yourself. The world will be a better place without u. lol. (i kid) [mostly]. Here he goes in one of the best beats Kanye ever made.
I bought my first pair of Gourmets this past season. When Gourmets first came out I was "on the fence" on them. Because, on one hand they were like nothing I had ever seen before...but on the other hand, they were JUST like something I had seen before. Get it?! lol I felt like with their first season being Jordan inspired, they where a band that used gimmicks. I've never been into fads & gimmicks, may it be fashion or music. But after a while I began to warm up to them more & more. So if you haven't bought your first pair of Gourmets, I suggest you do so. Plus, you be much cooler than those douche bags who still wear Creative Recreations! lol But if you still or ever wore Creative Recs...um..... #MyBad! lol
SideBar - Creative Recreations = Male version of Mellisas!
SideBarToMySideBar - If you do get a pair of Gourmets, make sure you go up a half a size. They fit somewhat narrow. You're welcome!
Donnis: “Today is a big day for me. Thanks to everyone who has helped me get to this point, especially LegallyCrazyATL all the blogs and websites who have assisted in getting my music and videos to the fans. THANK YOU! The first part of my plan is complete and I’m happy to be part of the Atlantic family. The works continues though, alot more to accomplish, alot more music on the way. 2010, Its The Academy!”
ComicBookMovie has posted what they say are the plot rumors details to the next Batman!!
* The Riddler is the primary villain and he figures out Batman’s identity. * Arkham Asylum will figure prominently in the story. * Several classic villains will cameo, including the Penguin and Mr. Freeze (though as Dr. Fries, not as the supervillain). * Barbara Gordon will have a featured role. * Commissioner Gordon will mention Metropolis and possibly Lex Luthor. * Dick Grayson may be in the movie (though probably not as Robin)
Finding out that the Riddler is the villain in the next Batman blew my mind. Because Jim Carrey killed his role as the Riddler in Batman Forever (1995). I remember my sister and I repeating what we thought was the quote of the whole movie over & over, "Don't kill him. Because if you kill him... he won't learn nothing!".
The all star game was the best part of all star weekend. I've lost respect for LeBron for refusing to participate in the slam dunk contest. I think he's scared he's going to lose, which would make him look stupid. But when Jordan & Dominique Wilkins were battling in the dunk contest in the 80's, they were the top players in the league. I feel like, if I felt like I was the best in the NBA I would be trying to prove that. May it be the dunk contest or a playoff game. I don't know... maybe I'm different.
SideBar - Shoutout to Paul Pierce for winning the 3 Point Contest. Even though I HATE the Celtics!
So you meet your love interest, you have big plans for the evening, your not exactly sure what they are because it is a surprise, you're handed a box, the dimensions look somewhat familiar, and you rip the paper open, s l o w l y, and there it is, the 2010 Valentines Day Edition nikes.
A pair of sneakers is just what makes a sneaker connoisseur's day, its the perfect gift. (Jewelry is always nice, but change it up some times), Me personally, I don't celebrate V-day, but a pair of sneakers anytime is a good gift for me. My favorite Valentine's Day Sneakers are the 2006 editions. The 2005's were very hot as well, Check out the: 2007, 2008 & 2009 editions.
We already covered subliminals. So in all likelihood if/when someone feels your taking shots at them shots may be returned even if they know they can't take you verbally. Rappers can be sensitive and violence only begets more violence, even if it's lyrical.
I have two problems with this song. First, everything was cool till they autotuned it out! Two, what the heck was LL Cool J doing on this?! Smh. At least the cause was admirable.
Seeing the movie Couples Retreat changed my life. Not the movie, but the location: Bora Bora.
Known for their water bungalows, beautiful weather and breathe taking scenery, Bora Bora is the place to go when you want to experience that "new level of luxury", and why not, don't you deserve it?
What really got to me about Bora Bora was the glass floor that is offered at the bungalow's there.... the fact that you can see thru the floor, into that beautiful ocean was remarkable to me.
The next facet that really made me fall in love with this place was the fact that you have access to the water right from your bungalow. You do realize that you walk down your stairs and just jump in the ocean from there..... bananas...
Honestly, I'm sold just off of those two elements alone, but Bora Bora does have a lot to offer, whether you want services at the spa (some offered in the water), water sports, historic tours, or just to lay and be waited on, while soaking up the sun, Bora Bora has it all. If you plan on going anytime soon, I recommend Le' Meridian, that is where I will be staying when I go. Make sure you get a over water bungalow with the glass floor view...
If you haven't seen Couples Retreat, make sure you go rent it:
My lovely sister Ayanna was talking to me today about the lack of good male R&B singers. I mean what happened to love songs? Please don't confuse with the everpresent sex songs that are popular (i.e. Trey Songz [not a diss just stating facts]). The above picture is Lee Fields. My dude like 70 and still making better music than people a third of his age. His voice really resonates in the song and the bassline is crazy. J. Cole used this instrumentation in his song on The Warm Up of the same title which u should already own and have on the ipod. Support greatness and download.
The young man above that is Eddie Kendricks. You may be familiar with this little group he was part of called The Temptations. U may also recognize this song from a little singer from New York who used this simple for her Unplugged album hit single.
But not all major artists make crap. Sometimes the real jewels are in their demos or unreleased songs. The-Dream wrote and produced the song below for Mariah Carey for the song H.A.T.E.U.. You can't write something like this without experiencing it. Unfortunately I'm encompassed in the lyrics currently.
And finally we have Teddy Pain. Great song, sounds incomplete since there is only one verse and an open verse on the song. It sounds like it could've been (or still could be a hit) it has a spring/summer vibe to it.
This commercial will start airing this weekend for NBA Sprite Slam Dunk Contest. There was a low quality version that leaked last week. But why your time if it ain't quality!?
I love this song because of it's "nice mellow groove". Not to mention the fact that the concept of the song is right where my head is. I need to be boarding a flight to somewhere other than... here. I need to go somewhere where the temperature is high & the water is blue. How's Bora Bora this time of year?
You remember when I told you that the Spiderman & Superman kids were going to be on The Jimmy Fallon Show? Well... they killed it! My favorite part is when Jimmy starts to talk to Peter Parker Marquise through the mask. Jimmy Fallon actually surprised me, he went in on trying to copy the dance moves.
SideBar - I've received hate IMs, had subliminals on Twitter, hate filled Facebook messages! All because it took me to long to blog this! These stage parents are crazy nowadays! lol I'm not really joking! looool
"Lord have mercy!" <--That's exactly what I said at the 0:16 mark. Is it possible to fall in love with someone off of a 3:45 video?! Because I'm close!
I like seeing people vibe to music. I've vibe'd so hard to music that I don't even remember driving to where I was going. It was like I blacked out. lol This is unreleased footage of T.I. and Lil Wayne in the studio back in 2007.
I sprained my ankle a month ago , and I am still not back to normal. I really needed a pedicure but I was afraid to go get it done because I felt like they wouldn't know how to handle my fragile ankle/foot, so I opted to do it myself.... in case u forgot the basics, or need some pointers, these handy dandy you tubes, will work. for you. Here are some useful tips on how to keep your feet healthy, and looking good.
I almost died laughing at the lyrics of this video. It's been obvious that Mr. West has been AWOL since TaylorSwiftgate, but it looks like Kanye has some things in store for us in 10'. He's said to be working furiously in the studio on his & Common's next albums. He also posted on his blog yesterday that he's working on another blog. So will see.
Footage of ?uest spinning at a J Dilla tribute show at The Bell House in Brooklyn last weekend. I didn't realize Dilla produced "The Light"... that kinda touched my soul.
So, have you ever waited in 40 degree rain for 2 hours to catch a sneaker sale? Well me and a host of others did on Friday at the Wish sale. Its crazy what you will do to stay fly... The pictures speak for themselves.
People like him took them all......
These are the ones that I almost took home with me, long story.....
