Super LINtendo!

Wednesday, February 15th, 2012

Dontrevius Wenters once had the fairytale narrative of the greatest undrafted Knicks of all time. Jeremy Lin has changed all of that and inspired the city of New York to believe in the Knickerbockers once again.

Dontrevius, ever the optimist has changed his narrative to be the greatest unsigned Knick of all time.

Defend Queens!

timeless truth

Timeless Truth was added to the Hit Squad reunion lineup yesterday. Holy effin’ shit Internets. Between Meyhem Lauren and Action Bronson bringing that kingly Queens rap to the people I am about to see my Corona brothers take flight to the Hip-Hop heights.

‘Rock-It Science’ will be Timeless Truth’s debut full length LP dropping in just a few veritable minutes. All the things I have espoused in my fandom for rap from day one are being represented by these brothers. Undeniable lyricism and trendsetting style, just like Kool G Rap, LL and NaS.

It’s crazy to see all of these dudes making major moves simultaneously as I literally met them all one after the other. It was all a dream Internets, right out of the pages of Word UP! magazine…

Happy VaLINtine’s Day…

LINsanity goes north of the border to avenge the Knicks loss to the Raptor’s earlier this season. Amar’e Stoudamire and Carmelo Anthony should both be back in the starting lineup. Now we have a chance to see the running and gunning, swishing and dishing team that Mike D’Antoni’s offense dreams of.

I’m a little upset at the success of Lin because it means that D’Antoni is spared the axe, but I’m having way too much fun enjoying the wave the Knicks are on right now. You know that Lin is a miracle worker because even Jared Jeffries’ play has become fun to watch.

Rap’s New Generation…

Monday, February 13th, 2012

I told you before about the video I shot with Esso for one of his songs on the ‘Son Of SAMO‘ EP. Esso is such a thorough young artist that he even understands how to do his own marketing to move his music.

Esso made a small clip of us kicking it after the shoot wrapped. I’m learning a lot from watching this young veteran handle his business.
