Real Recognize Real.

After watching this interview, I have even more of a respect for Cudi. The dude is real and he makes music that he believes in. He isn't directed by the "Champagne Poppin" artists out there who's music are strictly commercial driven.

lol staying on that club beat tip, here's a tribute to Scatman John (R.I.P btw)...on a lighter note I fucking love this song lol this guy was SICK haha, remember this one Jay ? =P

Work That

Japan's own Teriyaki Boys collaborate with Pharrell for this one. Their actually speaking English for the most part too.

Time after Time

NBA's new ad campaign is pretty creative and is hella funny. They use a mini tour bus to follow around the behind the scenes of all star players.

she was a go-go dancer



pretty catchy tune, kinda getting tired of Akon singing on ALL the songs nowadays though...whatever happened to nate dogg? joe, mario winans, ginuwine, maybe even kells could've worked for this song but anyway. this song will get your head bobbing so check it out.

some of that electric circus flow







alright so the other day I heard these tunes and I literally LOL-ed because I was just thinking back to the days when I was little we used to have this show called ELECTRIC CIRCUS, they'd go live to air from queen street (T-Dot baby!) and it was in a club type thing on the channel citytv. They played nuff club and house beats which back then I didn't really like but I'm loving that ish now...but anyways get nostalgic my people EC FOREVER! lol enjoy.

Jigga's tune is already tuff but this track is TUFF, I don't know I think both went equally hard on this one, but Crooked I sounded HUNGRY I like that aggressive flow my dude good looking out.

don't sweat the technique!



this dude spits some ILL shit man, his flow is mad fluid and just overall DOPE. check out this hot track!

California dreaming

Smooth Operator

Gentleman, stay smooth.

JESUS SHUTTLESWORTH



I haven't really done a movie recognition in a little bit. Another big movie I used to love when I was younger was He Got Game directed by Spike Lee. Basically, Ray Allen plays Jesus Shuttlesworth, an aspiring and promising baller from Coney Island. Denzel plays his father, who is incarcerated for accidentally murdering his wife. Watch the movie to understand the "accidentally" lol. The movie outlines the pressures of a rising professional athlete to super stardom. From girl troubles to the unwanted pressure of the media, everyday is a struggle. On a side note, y'all need to go out and check out Seven Pounds.

Gifted...

N.A.S.A featuring Kanye West, Santogold and Lykke Li. Nuff said.

Da art of story tellin.

Payin homage to where my home is. Everybody has their own path, and it's songs like this that paved the way for me. I feel sorry for today's youth who have to resort to Soulja Boy for music.

I get on the TTC.

This is mad corny but deserves props for creativity. These dudes had some time on their hands and made this parody. Shout outs to all that "Ride The Rocket" and fuck the Scarborough Rapid Transit, that shit gets packed. I always just go to Kennedy lol. I've ran into all types of stuff on this shit, from seriously unclean people to insane people yelling in my face. I knew something was wrong when I walked into the train and everybody but this one dude was sitting on the opposite side.

Have you ever pulled a Pharrell?

You ever walk through the mall and get booked hardcore for staring a bit too hard. I'm not going to lie, I've been caught in the act before when some Victoria Secret model type girls walked by, but honestly, what is the most nonchalant way of "looking"? lol. I used to joke with my dude Glenny because I swear he was the LEAST nonchalant dude when window shopping. His replies were mostly "I don't give a fuck, I know she's interested" and so on. I think girls are more ashamed of getting caught staring because it's outside the norm. The ladies are probably just way more advanced in the art and never let a guy know they're looking. Sorry to say, but if I look over at you to check you out and you are already staring in my direction, it's obvious you were looking girl. One of my girls let me know that, in her opinion, if you turn you're head at less than 60 degrees, it's not making it that badly obvious you're looking, but if you're head is at 90 degrees, you're staring hard. Lastly, if you're head turns more than 90 degrees when looking back, you're straight up hounding.

EXTRA GOOOOOD

TUESDAY'S TURNING BACK TIME VOL. 3



and oldie but a goodie, this is that GROWN FOLK MUSIC that really hits home. Now see kids being a 90's baby (best time to grow up imo) I took it upon myself to listen to a lot of the music from that time, and you know what? This was a time when music MEANT SOMETHING...not just beats, and synthesizers, etc. but anyways...just reminiscing a little here, if you don't already know this song do yourself a favour...crawl under a rock somewhere and die =). Enjoy (Y)

This is my art.





If you didn't know. I cut hair and barbering is a big part of my lifestyle. The elite barbers look at cutting as more of an art than a simple haircut. Toronto has a big amount of ill barbers out there. I just been cutting since I was young as more of a hobby.

Manila Guerrilla



Last night was a great night for all my Filipino people out there. The Manila Guerrilla went to work and totally outfoxed the Golden Boy. There was a lot of hype surrounding this fight and Pacman didn't disappoint. Oscar is a historic fighter and will go down as one of the best, but it was showed that he's getting up there and can't really keep up with the elite in speed and power. I want to see a Pacman vs Pretty Boy fight next, set it up.

Lykke Li

Alot of you know Drake just remade one of Lykke Li's songs called Little Bit giving it a bit more of an RnB vibe. As an artist, she's very talented and has her own genre of music. I was playing Fifa 09 and this is one of the tracks off the soundtrack. I have to admit that Fifa always has some of the sickest music collections. It's called I'm Good, I'm Gone.

Autotune



It's good to see rappers like having fun. Not always shooting up clubs, threatening each others, selling drugs, having sex with 'em biches. B.O.B. is quiet talented with & without autotune.

WEDNESDAY'S WAYBACK PLAYBACK VOL. 2 (Story of my fucking life)



this song is and will always be a timeless CLASSIC that pretty much everyone can relate to at some point in their life. these lyrics hit so deep I'm pretty sure most people know this song by heart, I know I do.

Smitch Fired.






Sam Mitchell was fired today and it was announced around 5 pm. Mitchell was the winningest coach in the history of the Raptors franchise at 156-189 (.452) The decision was made after the Raptors were made a mockery of last night in Denver losing 132-93. The former Canadian coach and current Raptors assistant coach Jay Triano will serve as the interim head coach for the time being. Brian Colangelo means business and he's committed to taking the franchise to another level. I personally enjoyed Sam's time as a Raptor's coach and his bouts with the media were pretty amusing. I wish him the best and hopefully this will work out for the best for the Raptors. I'm just wondering why this couldn't have happened when Mike D'Antoni was still available.

Little Penny. 1¢

Anfernee "Penny" Hardaway is one of the greatest ballers of all time in my mind. His days in Orlando with the Diesel were too sick. These Little Penny commercials bring back memories and are hilarious. Shoe heads, peep all the kicks too.
