In Memphis, The Answer Is The Question…

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

iverson

Allen Iverson has become as enigmatic as Stephon Marbury when you consider their playing careers and off-court issues. It doesn’t look like Allen will be a starter in the league any longer, not even on a team that smells like asscheeks. I wouldn’t mind if the Knicks picked him up once the Grizzlies release him, but this is why I have a weblog as opposed to a GM position. I doubt Allen could win us any more games than the current backcourt players have a chance to.

My problem might be that I’m still thinking about 2001’s Allen Iverson who was the best player in the game of basketball. Allen might still be reminiscing on that player as well.

Sadly, and ultimately, time marches on.

Why waste it practicing?

Lady Gaga Owes Cher A Check…

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

cher

Cher is the OG drag queen songstress. Lady Gaga owes this chick a check for everything about her steez including her audience.

Lady Gaga is certainly the spectacle I will give her credit for that much as she makes her music videos the equivalent of attention grabbing trainwrecks.

I keep watching in hopes of catching a glimpse of the dead bodies strewn about. Oh shit, I think I just saw JonBenét Ramsey…

Cher was an entertainment atomic threat because she could sing, dance and look effin’ hawt all at the same time. Lady Gaga is more along the lines of a Madonna-type popstar who is more proficient at taking still pictures and posing seductively as opposed to actually being a bonafide talent.

Plus, who in the game other than maybe BeYonce has as many wigs and butterfly wings as Cher does?

Exactly.

Dry Your Eyes…

Bajah + Dry Eye Crew – ‘Honda’

bajah

The Roots Jam Session last night was a total OKayPlayer family affair. Bajah + The Dry Eye crew was in the building to do a mini set from their mixtape ‘Kings Of Salone‘.

B+DEC is from Sierra Leone and their music reflects the global influence of Hip-Hop and dancehall. It’s been so long since anyone has used to rap music to oppose images of the gun that I almost forgot what that sounded like. It takes artists from war torn regions to remind us of how special life really is. This is the feeling you get from watching Bajah + Dry Eye Crew perform. Singers and dancers fill the stage like a house party.

I’m still waiting to get a copy of the feel good anthem for 2009 – Tell Somebody The You Love Somebody. That can’t be the title but it is the refrain of the song. Bajah is more dope music that you need to have on your hard drive so you can switch gears inside of the rap music lane.

Curb Gets Back 2 Basics…

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

larry david

Larry David’s smash series ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ is on its way to basic cable. ‘Curb’ is one of those moments in television that you can recognize is instant vintage. I laugh out loud for all the wrong reasons. Larry David has shown us all to be bigoted, self-absorbed sycophants. He is the only one among us to have the courage to always live in that space. At least on television.

The best part of this cable deal is that TV Guide and TV Land will be acquiring broadband licenses to bring ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ to the internets. Good for them. I will enjoy when I can view entire episodes of ‘Curb’ from my computer…


props to the Internet Goon

2 More Chances 2 Get Over…

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

hl roots

There are only two more dates remaining to catch the Roots live jam session at the Highline Ballroom. The Roots have been tearing the roof off this venue during their run as the Jimmy Fallon show house band. Each show has been incredible as guest performers sit in with the Roots every evening and create magical sonic blends.

hl roots

The Roots are the perfect band to host these jam sessions because their talents are in morphing their sound to fit any subgenre of music. They got rock, reggae and rhythm and blues all down pat along with their obvious Hip-Hop and rap (natch). It’s been fun to watch the band shapeshift to match the style of their guest’s music as opposed to making their guests come find them.

hl roots

Music is a movement in your ears and your eyes. Good music rises upward like so much of the WBW smoke you will find inside of the Highline Ballroom. The Roots climb to higher ground during the sets everytime. Just when I think I have had my mind blown they find a way to do it all over again. Treat yourself to a Roots show at the Highline and tell me if my hyperbole isn’t just honesty.

hl roots

Shouts to Nattiez on the flicks above. Thanks to Shamz, Dan and Ginny over at OKayPlayer. Biggup to JaiSlayer, Polotron, Ruffian, 40Diesel, Blagavelli, Braden, Joe, Cymone, Stevie, and all the DP.commenters that have met me up in the spot.

Two more to go party people.
