I’m still on my Air Jordan 2012 ish hardbody. Especially when I can copp a fresh pair for -$80 Off the MSRP. Air Jordan 2012 has been so slept on this year but that seems to be the trend of Jordan kicks. They only sell out as retros.
Two weeks from now I go HAM for the retro 6 ‘Olympics’ colorway. I’m shooting that video in Atlanta. Holler if you see me in the Underground.
We’re gonna get into this leaked Alchemist project this weekend titled ‘Russian Roulette’. There are loads of features on the album and the Outdoorsmen are figuring prominently on the project.
Here’s a little clip I posted from a track with Meyhem Lauren dropping a guest verse. As always dude comes super hard [ll].
I feel like I’ve been waiting for this film for forever and after watching it I was like, “What the FUX?!?” This is some BULLSHIT!
The Alien franchise has been one of the most intriguing and dramatic series put to film. It’s started to lose its way and become a B-movie camp series before the promise of this Prometheus prequel. And then a few weeks before Prometheus was set to release the creators tightened up. They started saying that Prometheus wasn’t directly tied to Alien, but these events occurred in the same universe.
That is what I call ‘Sucka Shit’. How the hell they gonna get the world hyped to see what birthed the greatest horror sci-fi flicks and then retract the whole setup? Those are the type shenanigans people play when they know their end product isn’t up to snuff. Ridley Scott and his team overshot the target for this film and in the process may have ruined the whole point of the prequel.
My biggest complaint tho’ was the simple idea which humankind was spawned from a humanoid type species. The human dominates Earth not because of their bodies but because of their minds. If an anthropod were three feet tall and could talk they might would be Earth’s dominant species. I have to believe that whatever put humans on this planet can put something here way better and badder than we are. I consider humans to be a ‘dry run’.
The alien from the OG flick rears its ugly head at the end of the film and then I ask myself how is this movie NOT related to the first film? There is the alien from Alien. Well sort of. Prometheus didn’t really know what it wanted to be. I blame that shit on 3-D and CGI technology.
When the original Alien dropped in 1979 nobody had all this visual tech to ruin your story. You had to make a good movie back then. Now all you have to do is make that shit 3-D and people will forget they are in the theater to have a story told to them. That’s why I go to the movies. Or sometimes I go to beat the summer heat and enjoy some air conditioning.
That’s the only thing you might get out of watching Prometheus… Two and a half hours of good air conditioning.
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.
Shouts to Combat Jack for tipping me off to this new series from the GOAT comicbook artist John Byrne.
Here’s the spoiler alert. One of the three mains is a Black kid. ‘Nuff said. I’m going in.
