Nike Sb Video

A day in the life of Paul Rodriguez.

Dope video with cameos from Eric Koston, Kobe Bryant, and Ice Cube.
I just wish they hadn't chopped ice cube's song up so much.

Paul D’Amato

Scoped this out over at booooooom.
Great stuff.
Check out Paul's work here.

Kid Cudi Ft. Kanye West & Common- Make Her Say

Apollo 11 - Saturn V Launch

Go ahead and watch this video if you have 10 free minutes to spend and don't have a hefty object within grabbing distance that you might be urged to hurl at your monitor. I say this because listening to Pat Buchanan's blemished logic might just make you want to lob obscenities at your computer and tear your hair from its roots. Just knowing that some people in this country still hold sentiments of this kind really makes people wonder; how far have we come?
Poor Ms.Maddow sensed that Pat Buchanan was about to fire a shot at Sotomayor so she decided to swiftly change the subject of the conversation to affirmative action. Unfortunately for her this only diverted Pat's nescience to a broader subject and didn't spare us from catching quite possibly one of the most awkward dialogues in recent history. I sure am glad Rachel ripped him a new one. I know she's off limits for my end of the spectrum but she sure did look mighty spicy in this clip. wowzzers me-ow

oooooooof

I haven't posted anything in forever.
I'll try to post more.
I've been listening to a lot of Cam'ron lately.
Maybe too much Cam'ron actually.
This is two years old and I still find it hilarious.


I also saw the "Santana's Town" parody the other day and thought it was genius.





Why am I blogging about old dipset shit?
I'm that bored I guess.
I should be doing an essay on Hamlet right now.
Oh well. More updates coming soon.

The Thrill Lives On

Michael Jackson died yesterday. Probably the biggest passing I have experienced, the death of Michael really hits a chord for me. My parents are both huge fans and Michael's anthems were regularly played in my house when I was young. Michael lived an extraordinary life, one that had it's share of highs and lows. I can only hope that his death will bring about a shift of focus away from his flaws and more towards his achievements. This is the death of an icon and possibly the last music superstar of this stature. No one since Michael has been able to replicate his success or universality, His music just oozed perfection, from songwriting to the instrumentation, to the substance and moral and musical value. Not to mention he was the gold standard when it came performing. He was undeniably the King of Pop, I'd even go as far as to say the King of Music. Even though he is gone, we still have the music that he made, and boy is that a statement in of itself.





Michael Jackson, Rest in Peace.

o hai.

New pac-div video for "Mayor". About time guys, I've been bumping this song since February. Everything about this video just screams Los Angeles to me. I love it.


The Clipse. What can I say about these guys? One of my favorite hip-hop groups of all time and with Kanye behind the boards, you just know it's gonna be a classic. 'Til the Casket Drops drops sometime in September. Is it weird that I'm anticipating this one more than the new Jay-z or Wu albums? Not at all.

I'll be back.

Stuff.

Relief.

I finished my first year of college today. 11 classes down, a bajillion more to go. This last semester was probaly the most stressful semester I've ever had. Since Monday I slept a total of about 7 hours. Sooooo tired. I can't even write anything remotefully involved because my brain is exhausted. The Lakers won one of the craziest games ever tonight and life couldn't be any better. I just thought I should write down the feelings I am experiencing right now because they don't come around very often.

Friday "morning"

Every Friday morning I sleep until 12 o'clock noon. Every Friday morning my dog sneaks into my room, hops onto my bed, and uses my foot as a pillow. I don't think there's anything better that I can wake up to. You could argue; "What if a hot supermodel sneaked into your room, hopped into your bed, and used your foot as a pillow?" That actually has happened to me before. It's not as good, it's just not as good. I love my dog.

Next week is the last week of my spring semester. Last week was one of the most stressful weeks ever. I think I slept a total of 9 hours over 4 days AND I still have a bunch of work to do.

I downloaded Dom Kennedy's mixtape, FutureStreet/DrugSounds about 3 weeks ago. It's actually really impressive. While he might not be the most lyrical of the bunch, his delivery and flow more than make up for it. Perfect car music. "Menace Beach" is bananas. The beat on "Hellagood Intermission" might be the most chill beat I've heard this year. Check it out on Imeem.


This is the work of Anthony Davis. The lighting in some of his shots is just amazing. Really great stuff. One of my favorite photographers. I especially love this set.

redemption.

I've been a Laker fan since I was 5 years old. I've been through the ups and downs with them. They are my team. Nothing else makes me happier than watching this video.


I always say I'm gonna update this blog more often but I hardly ever do. I think once the semester ends I'll be able to post more. From now on I think I'll post random art and photography I find on the internet and hopefully you will appreciate it just as much as I do.(click the picture to go to the artist's site)
