Bruno Teabags Eminem-MTV Movie Awards
Eminem looked pissed! Was this part of the show or was Em caught off guard as part of a Bruno prank? Any clue when this movie "Bruno" comes out? I can't wait to hear what the whole deal was with this stunt...
I hate being on the West Coast for the fact that this was ruined before I atcually saw it live. Oh well...
Lakers vs. Magic (NBA Finals)
Well, to the disappointment of the NBA, Nike, myself and sports fans around the world...Lebron James and the Cav's lost last night to the Orlando Magic and have been eliminated from the NBA Playoffs. Unfortunately we won't be seeing the Kobe vs. Lebron match up everyone was hoping for. Honestly though, I think this Lakers vs. Magic series will be a much closer series. Dwight Howard and company have been impressive throughout the playoffs and I look forward to watching this series. The NBA Finals start on Thursday.
My prediction: Lakers in 6
Nike Air Max 97 Lux
Would you pay the $375 retail price tag for these Air Max 97 Lux's? Me neither, but in case you are one of the rare few....check out CaliRoots for details. I really like the design and colorway but I don't know why this would inflate their price to 2.5 times of what a normal Air Max 97 would cost. Hype...
Eminem on the cover of SOLE Magazine

Lebron x Kobe x Nike (Car Jump)
I think I've posted most (if not all) of these Nike commercials. I think this is one of the best themes they have had going in a while...very entertaining.

More pics of Kanye x Louis Vuitton Sneakers
More pics have surfaced of the Kanye x Louis Vuitton sneakers. With the price tag associated($700-$1200 depending on the style) with these kicks, I don't know why anyone would actually buy them. I guarantee hypebeasts will be lined up waiting though to spend a month's rent on a pair of ugly sneakers.
The sneaker game is going in the completely wrong direction and it is because of Kanye and his overpriced, overhyped sneakers (Nike and Louis Vuitton) and Jordan Brand and their packaging of sneakers. Thank god I have got more selective in my old age. LOL.
Take Yourself to School : Wiz Khalifa
While only 21, this Pittsburgh artist, Wiz Khalifa, is no rookie to the industry. With many mixtapes already under his belt and a debut album, including his hit "Say Yeah", this young emcee is ready to take the industry by storm. On the verge of releasing his Warner Bros.-backed album "First Flight", Wiz is also working on a mixtape "How Fly"with Curren$y which is set to release before the end of the month. Keep your eye on this dude because he definitely has a bright future ahead of him.

Scracth!
Scratch is a video game that is coming out with the Guitar Hero/Rock Band concept but with DJ equipment instead of the usual stuff. Sweet!
Mike Posner - Kiss Me Through The Phone
Mike Posner flips the Soulja Boy track for a dope remake. No lie I have listened to the Mike Posner and The Brain Trust "A Matter of Time" 100+ times already and I am really looking forward to more material from him. Make sure you check out the mixtape if you haven't yet...

Air Jordan True Blue III
If I look back over the years, the Jordan True Blue III is one of the sneakers I most regret passing on. One of my favorite J's (III's) and a unique colorway make this a MUST COP for this August when they re-retro. Get ready for lines and mayhem because these are very popular amongst Jordan heads and many will be trying to add these to their collection.
BTW...it looks like these won't be in a pack. YESSSSSS! Along with multiple other shoes which are rumored to release this year and be "packless"...Jordan White/Cement III's, Space Jam XI's, Red/White XII's, etc. Hopefully Jordan Brand will go back to the philosophy of single shoes and ditch this whole pack effort they have had going the last year and a half.

Nike Total Max Uptempo
Nike had retroed a lot of dope shoes this year and next comes the "Uptempo's". The Nike Total Max Uptemp is set to start releasing in stores in July of this year. Keep your eyes peeled, because these should move quick!
Supra TK Society - New Colorways
Two more colorways of the Supra TK Society are set to release shortly. Thoughts? There is something about these shoes that has me posting them up, but I don't think I would ever actually buy them.
MORE Jordan 1's???
Jordan Brand had officially O.D.'ed on the Jordan I Colorways. Here are two more shoes slated to drop this year. Anyone have a count on how many Jordan I's will release in 09'? I think it has to be over 20 colorways already!

D-Block- That's D-Block
The album drops June 2nd...curious to see how this turns out. I'm a huge fan of Kiss, P and Louch but really can't stand any of the next generation of D-Block. I'm definitely more excited about the LOX album that's suppose to drop later this year.
Lebron's Game 2 Winner/Interview
WOWWWWWWWW. What a shot! I'm pissed I missed this game, but from what I've heard the Cavs blew a 23 point lead and the game came down to this winning 3 from King James.

Mr. Jefferson - True Devotion
This is the first single off of Mr. Jefferson's upcoming mixtape "The Hip Hop Bailout Plan Vol.1" that is coming soon. Check out Mr. Jefferson's Music blog under my "Blog Roll Call".
Jeezy, Weezy, Drizzy
Young Jeezy, Lil' Wayne and Drake - I'm Going In (Full Version)
This track leaked back a while ago with a different dude named Truth instead of Young Jeezy. That was the unofficial version and this here is as official as a referee with a whistle. This appears on the Young Jeezy and DJ Folk mixtape "Trappin' Ain't Dead" that is set to release shortly.
Louis Vuitton - Black/Grey Damier Belt
I have loved this Louis belt for a long time now and think I am going to actually make the purchase sometime in the near future. A few more sneaker sales and I will be in business. It is WAY too much money to spend on a belt, but fuck it...you only live once.
Jordan V White/Dark Army
A closer look at the Jordan V White/Dark Army via kicksonfire.com and marqueesole.com. There are smaple size 9's of these floating around going for $900. $900? They are a good looking shoe and my favorite Jordan model but let's be real here.
Jordan XVI's for Sale - $200 Shipped
I'm selling off some of my Jordan's and other Nike's that I have doubles of or don't want anymore. I'm planing on taking the money from that and buying myself the Louis Vuitton Black/Grey Damier belt I have been wanting forever now. These won't last long (aka they are basically sold already...).
These are DS Jordan XVI's from the CDP pack and they can be yours for $200 shipped.
