BTW, I'm a big LeBron fan, but he is human...so I really don't see what the big deal is.

Cliff Skighwalker x 88-Keys Interview

@Skighwalker is my homie and a champion.

After the 88-Keys in-store at Burn Rubber Sneaker Boutique, I got a chance to chop it up with 88 and talk to him mostly about his experience on The Great Hangover tour so far, as well as if he really gets along with the other artists on the tour. I definitely place 88-Keys in the category of not only being super talented, but very cool, humble, and very far from acting Hollywood.

Dwayne Wade: From Converse to Nike

There has been a major development in the world of athletic shoes, and to no one's surprise, it involves Nike (NKE). Dwayne Wade of the Miami Heat has taken his shoes and gone from Converse to Brand Jordan. Wade stated that he "didn't want to be in the Converse brand anymore because it seemed like they didn't know what to do with me." In addition, Wade told the Associated Press that he wanted to global, and this move was necessary to achieve such notoriety.

Superhead has arrived!



Seriously, I was going to go into an in-depth post...but no need to. I do not and will never refer to her as Karrine Steffans, she'll always be known as Superhead to me.

But I will say, not many women/men can go from being known for amazing oral skills to being on Oprah, the Today Show, signing book deals, etc.

Throwback Track: Chingy

Idk why I'm posting this...well, I do. Last night I was extremely bored and I was going through Free On Demand - Music...and this is one of the videos that I decided to watch.

Unorthodox Collab (Supra x Palms Hotel)

You're not dope until you have a sneaker company, New Era, or a dope clothing line that wants to collab with you and your business. Nowadays that's what's in...and the newest collab is an awkward one.

Supra gets together with the Palms Hotel Las Vegas to collaborate on a Skytop high top sneaker. On the weekend of the 4th of July Jay-Z and DJ Am performed at the hotel. For the occasion Supra made a special run of 23 Skytops for Jon Gray, the man who always makes sure to keep the Palms the busiest place in town. It does not look like there will actually be a general release, but we will keep you posted.

Starting From Scratch

The story of my life.

This picture symbolizes where I am w/ a lot of different things in my life. My friendships, what I want to do in the future, where I want to be, etc.

I'm starting from scratch. They say you can't start on one chapter until the previous one is finished. Well, if that's true, I'm not onto another chapter, I'm picking up another book.

I have certain breaking points and once you're past that, you've disrespected me, you go sea-saw w/ our friendship, you try to use me, you don't value me as a person or you mis-read me and try to spaz on me...I'm done w/ you. Period.

So this is where I am right now w/ my life. Starting from scratch.

In Current Rotation

If you aren't familiar w/ any of these albums, EPs, or mixtapes. Your music game is losing.

Today's Hater: Bill O' Reily

I never liked this dude anyway, so when he pulls stunts like this, it doesn't surprise me!



Honestly, this guy is like Charles Hamilton to me. Non-existent, irrelevant, and someone I'd probably smack if I met them in real-life (and he's on a very SHORT list of people).

Dumars. I'm Done.
