Take It Back a Bit: Erykah Badu- Love of My Life


Y'all know how I met her
We broke up-got back together
To get her back I had to sweat her
Thought she rolled with bad boys forever
In many ways them boys made it better to grow I had to let her
She needed cheddar, and I understood that
Looking for cheese, that don't make her a hood rat
In fact she's a queen to me, her light beams on me
I love it when she sings to me

BRING IT BACK: Patrick Ewing Rogue 2(this is for you rich)




Do you remember Patrick Ewing's signature sneaker line from the early 90's? Well, if you do you've probably been looking for a brand spankin new pair for years. Ewing's sneaker brand started off with Ewing Athletics and later Next Sports took over the company. Anyhow, the Patrick Ewing sneakers are highly sought after by tons of sneaker connoisseurs making them a must have for serious collectors. The Rogue II (2) was obviously inspired by the Nike Air Jordan VIII (8) due to the use of the criss cross straps.(via shoe game)

Air Jordan 12 (XII) Retro Black / Red


Earlier this week i wrote about the white/red jordan 12 color way. Well, it is rumored that Jordan Brand is slated to once again retro the black / red colorway in the Air Jordan 12 (XII) model. They have been dubbed the Flu Game editions, which refer to MJ’s 38 point performance in Game 5 of the NBA Finals in 1997. That particular performance is best noted because of the fact that Michael was suffering from flu-like symptoms. It is also rumored that the black area will feature a suede design. Like i already mentioned, this is a rumor, but they are said to be releasing in November and will retail for $150. Most likely, i wont be gettin these....first because of the suede aspect of this retro but more importantly because i will be getting the red/white colorway. (via kicksonfire)

No official pictures yet, but if you aren't familiar with the True Blues, here's a picture of the 2001 Retros.(via jumpman kicks)

Teddy Afro: Jail Sentence Reduced


One of Ethiopia's most famous pop stars, Teddy Afro, had his hit-and-run manslaughter jail sentence cut to two years from six by an appeal court Wednesday. The singer, whose real name is Tewodros Kassahun and who is known for belting out lyrics critical of the government, was convicted in December last year of killing an 18-year-old homeless man while driving in the capital Addis Ababa in 2007. Afro has always denied he was in the car. Appeal Judge Dagne Melaku maintained that Afro was guilty but said the victim had been drunk and was lying unconscious on the road when he was hit by the performer's car. Melaku added that the police had failed to move the victim to a safer place. The singer has been in prison for almost a year and could be free in less than 12 months, once time served and good behavior are taken into account. Afro is hugely popular among young Ethiopians and sings mainly in the local Amharic language. As with all of Afro's previous court appearances, small groups of young fans gathered on the streets surrounding the courthouse Wednesday awaiting the appeal verdict. Hundreds protested outside the court when his trial began in April -- an unusual event in a country where dissent is rare. The pop star's songs have been used as protest anthems by opposition supporters who have taken to the streets and his fans believe his conviction was motivated by his music.
Afro's last album, Yasteseryal (Redemption), coincided with Ethiopia's 2005 election, which led to violent protests and the jailing of opposition leaders. Opposition politicians in Ethiopia have accused the government of clamping down on dissent ahead of parliamentary elections due next year.(article via Barry Malone)

The Role


look at what we did
look at what we did
oh God forbid
look at what i did

i look so stupid wandering
map stares back like nigga look
lack of concern to pay attention
taste confusion as it roles down my cheek,
raps around my lips and falls carrying that shit
anointing my head with the oils of agony
baptizing the bullets holes that say my name
the reoccurring scene in this movie is heartbreak
this is how its always been
this is how it always will be
everyone has a role on this world
some are doctors some are murders
some hate and some love
some are loved and some....just aren’t


look at what we did
look at what we did
oh God forbide
what didn’t I do

Fuck the Flowers


I love the lord
But sometimes it's like that I love me more
I love the peace, and I love the war
I love the seas, and I love the shore
No love for no beach, baby that's law
But she doesn't see, therefore I spoil
I trick, I fall, run up in raw
I love her with all my heart
Every vein, every vessel, every bullet lodged
WITH EVERY FLOWER THAT I TOOK APART
(lupe fiasco, the coolest....excerpt, verse 1)

green stems and beautiful white petals
sweet smell of a bright young morning
clear eyes, cloudy thoughts
all of whom arrive to one casket
stomach filled with a meadows butterflies
same place where daisy resides
in a ways i understand
so hello and goodbye
the flowers however remain intact
theres no need for destruction of beauty
no need to use Gods creation for lack of character
so in that breath, i say FUCK THE FLOWERS
i dont want to smell your enchanting perfume
i dont need ur beauty to make me happy
the hope you give with every pull
fuck the flowers, white, yellow, and green
fuck you daisy, and the thousands like you
......fuck you

Air Jordan 6 (VI) Retro




This isn’t some crazy pair of j’s that cant be found, there is nothing truly amazing about them. I just simply want them andddddd I was bored in mosaics 2 so BLADOWWWWW…..The Air Jordan VI (6) was released in late 1990/early 1991. In the 90-91 season Michael added the only thing missing in his awards and titles received in the NBA. The Bulls finally won the NBA Championships beating the LA Laker’s in the final. After having lost the first game they won four straight games and were without a doubt the strongest team in the NBA in a long time(via kicks on fire). The ones pictured here are a part of the Carmines (Countdown Package 6 / 17) released in 2008.

2009 Chevy Stingray Concept


General Motors used the Chicago Auto Show to introduce the world to its latest concept vehicle, the Corvette Stingray, which will be featured in the upcoming Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen movie on June 26th. According to GM, the vehicle is nothing more than a styling buck that was influenced by the original 1959 Stingray racer when it was spotted by director Michael Bay while he was touring GM's operations looking for inspiration for the first Transformers movie

SOULJA BOY "TURN MY SWAG ON REMIX" (FEAT. LIL WAYNE)

Say what you will about him: he’s corny, he’s trash, he’s ruining hip-hop…..anyway u slice it, I LOVE SOULJA BOY TELL’EM!!!! To me he’s funny, he’s entertaining, and most importantly he brings something to hip-hop that has been missing for years....THE FUN!!!! Remember the days of kid and play? The days when it was cool to dance and have fun at a party; instead of standing on a wall, mean mugging other people cause they’re havin fun. Sure, he makes dumb songs with slightly retarded lyrics, yeah he’s extremely superficial and will probably loose all that shit anyway…I get all that but honestly, he’s still fucking great in my eyes. Why is it so wrong to enjoy his music, cause on some real shit, there isn’t one person that has been to a party in the last 2 years that hasn’t done the Soulja Boy!!! Now with all that being said, don’t get me wrong, you would never catch me walkin down the street with “Booty Meat” blastin in my pod, but at a party, or with my friends in a car, HELL FUCKING YEAH IM TURNIN MY SWAG ON!!!!!

HappY Early V-Day to Me

"Ready For Love" India Arie

I am ready for love
Why are you hiding from me
I'd quickly give my freedom
To be held in your captivity

I am ready for love
All of the joy and the pain
And all the time that it takes
Just to stay in your good grace
Lately I've been thinking
Maybe you're not ready for me
Maybe you think I need to learn maturity
They say watch what you ask for
Cause you might receive
But if you ask me tomorrow
I'll say the same thing

I am ready for love
Would you please lend me your ear?
I promise I won't complain
I just need you to acknowledge I am here

If you give me half a chance
I'll prove this to you
I will be patient, kind, faithful and true
To a man who loves music
A man who loves art
Respect's the spirit world
And thinks with his heart

I am ready for love
If you'll take me in your hands
I will learn what you teach
And do the best that I can

I am ready for love
Here with an offering of
My voice
My Eyes
My soul
My mind

Tell me what is enough
To prove I am ready for love

I am ready

...this just hit me so hard

SHE CAN GET IT: Kerry Washington





From what I’ve seen (I mean I don’t know shit about her) Kerry Washington seems like everything I would want in a future wife. There’s just something about her…..eyes, smile, lips that always leave you with the implication of something more, and damn those sexy ass cheek bones!!! Oh and not to mention one of the best bodies I’ve ever seen on any female(those who seen "I think I love My Wife" and "Lake View Terrace" can testify). And no I’m not that superficial, from the roles she’s played(I realize she’s acting and may not be anything like the characters shes portrayed) she seems like this playful vixen with a tender and loving nature. Oh and lets not forget her amazing sense of style, mixing a classic elegant look with high end katore. Anywho all this leads me to the phrase…..SHE CAN GET IT!!!

BRING IT BACK (NIKE AIR PRESSURE)





With the Nike Air Pressure, Nike aimed to create a custom fit support with the use of air in the chambers inside the ankle support. These shoes marked quite a turning point for Nike. An inflatable hand pump device was used to pump air, the more air you pumped, the tighter the fit! The shoe also featured a valve on the back to release air pressure hence the name from the shoe. Unfortunately, Nike Air Pressure were only produced for one year(via nice kicks). ONCE AGAIN, NIKE PLEASE BRING THESE BACK!!!
ONCE AGAIN NIKE PLEASE OH PLEASE BRING THESE BACK!!!!

Macbook Mini Concept




Desiged by Isamu Sanada, the new concept from apple is exciting and will no doubt bring a whole new generation of users.The three-paned design would fold up into a long, thin casing, but open up to give a surprisingly large palmrest area. That would give plenty of space for a big multitouch trackpad, underneath a well-sized keyboard. According to Sanada’s description, it would allow for a full-sized keyboard, 10-inch LED-backlit display and 128GB SSD, all in something just 28 x 13.8 x 1.68cm. Still, im not sold on macs in general. Don't get me wrong this looks really cool, but im still not sold on apples opperating system. Windows is still the king in my jungle and will remain so until I leave this earth.
