All of us here at dP.com love to celebrate the tragic comedy of Dontrevius Wenters every year right about this time…
This week’s special guest on the Combat Jack Show was stand up comedian and radio personality Artie Lange (formerly of the Howard Stern Show). Artie discussed some of the high points and low moments in his career from his stints on MadTV and Howard Stern’s spaceship.
Artie even spit a verse from Biggie’s notoirous catalog.

The Miami Heat’s NBA Finals victory now cements LeBron James into the league’s franchise seat which was forcibly vacated by Kobe Bryant. I’m not mad at how LeBron achieved this title because even tho’ he didn’t display the killer DNA myself and so many other fans wanted to see from him Lebron showed a true grit and an ability to be an all-around basketball player.
The triple-double James recorded in the deciding game is an underrated feat. It describes the sacrifice to grab rebounds and the unselfish nature which is needed to help other players get baskets. For crissakes, Mike Miller, who is one quarter of the role player he once was looked like Bill Lainbeer, hitting threes and taking charges. That was LeBron James motivation which enabled Miller to be great.
LeBron will still be someone who I think cries to the refs too often but so did Jordan and Kobe in their own respective ways. At least now LeBron James has a ring so those tears will be champion tears instead of alligator tears.
When Action Bronson announced he’d be on the bill for the City Parks (SummerStage) show at Red Hook Park I knew he was gonna bring out Meyhem Lauren for at least a track.
I’m looking at the pictures of these dudes with the NYC sky turning to dusklight and I feel a sense of satisfaction from their accomplishments. Its a funny thing to actually know these cats and to break bread with them and to talk the artistry and lifestyle of a rap singer.
These dudes were all real before I even met them. Their trajectory is still pointed upwards and onwards. They gonna have to do a track now called ‘Excelsior’. Pardon me internets, I’m just in a New York state of mind.
My lifestyle isn’t just about rockin’ Lifestyle, but yeah, it’s about just being free to do the things which give you peace.
I love my kicks but sometimes I h8 the game.
The Kobe 7 Supremes are slept on heat rocks.
On my way to this Epic Records meet and greet I fell thru Lord & Taylor on West 39th Street after I got the e-mail that today was the last day to use my 20% Off coupon on clearance items. Lord’s had this hat from the Modern Explorer series I had been scoping out. I was ready to copp that to top of my outfit architecture.
The cap I wanted wasn’t there but I found these two pieces in the $20 bin and with 20% Off that took them down to $16 apiece. A plaid newsboy cap and 5-panel camper joint with a little side patch action. And why the fux not?
After the Epic Records event I decided to slip into Midtown Comics and pick up a couple of books which have been on my mind. We’ll talk about those comics in a future drop.
