It goes down like THAT at the strip club… like shrimp & salmon with mac & cheese? Like THAT??? Apparently so in Atlanta. And Yung Joc is going to kick off this “Plates And Poles” series and bring you the real deal full meal on it.

Man, you’ll be ogling what Chef Kelz puts on them plates about as much as you’d be ogling the ‘shoe models’ at The Blue Flame. Hahaaa!

Making French Montana’s “Unforgettable” Provided Opportunity & Footage For A Compelling Documentary: “My Project, Their Reality” (Video)

Remember that “Unforgettable” joint that Montana did with Swae Lee? This documentary/behind-the-scenes is about the place (Uganda) and people that provided the backdrop and warmth for the video. Gave French Montana life again when it came to Hip-Hop. Watch and get a feel for why…

(After the jump, in the pics, you see the most gripping moment of the short film… The kid, Ronnie, said “if” he grows up. “IF”… no kid his age should be ‘hedging’ in life because he may not live to grow up. Wow. Well worth watching this story.)

CyHi The Prynce – “Dat Side” feat. Kanye West

Lots of new music dropping. Some considered ‘big releases’ because they have big names attached. Now, this CyHi x Kanyeezy though… more than two ‘big names’… quite literally, this is that Good Music. You will probably hear enough of what they are doing over there. Take a tick or two to check out “Dat Side.”

Watch This “Flights from Hell” Documentary From Channel 4 (Video)

Daaaaamnnn! Might need to make this required viewing for the Jayforce Travel Squad! People can make things go loco, and at 30,000 feet that ain’t good. And this is not just some sanitized report. This is passenger-shot footage used to tell the story!

This shocking, surprising and entertaining documentary uses footage captured on passengers’ cameras and phones to reveal extreme behaviour in airports and on planes.

Eye Candy: Denise Bidot Is Such A Cut-Up In Her Monokini (Video)

Monokini. What a nice way to say, “Sexy one-piece.” Shorten that right on up and make it skimpier and hotter. I have actually borne witness to many a sexy thick Miss in a ‘standard’ one-piece. But this style on Denise is that cut-up. Mmm…

(Imagination. It’s a beautiful thing. Like Denise Bidot’s fine self!)

#BeachBodyNotSorry
Be unapologetically you.

Adam Saaks has made sexy hand-crafted suits for everyone from Heidi Klum to Jessica Alba, but you won’t believe the one he designed for Swimsuits For All model Denise Bidot.

Dave East Is Happy For The New Generation, But They Do Not Do It Like He Does (Video)

Always a good interview when East is in the house.

Hard Knock Tv’s Nick Huff Barili sits down with Dave East for an in-depth interview at Truth Studios. In part 3, Dave shares what conversations were like early on with Nas when they first met and later what advice Nas, who signed him in 2014, has given him. Dave East also talks about there needing to be subgenres in Rap because what he and Lil Uzi Vert do are not the same. Dave said he is happy for the new generation of rappers doing their thing but lyricism and storytelling is more his thing.
– Hard Knock TV

No doubt! Dave is a different breed, a thoroughbred emcee. And for our end, we will be thorough enough to include Parts 1 & 2 of this interview after the jump.

Li’l bouncy. Li’l saucy. Definitely sexy. Check out this hot dance track from London-based producer Eden Prince. She enlisted Cassie to pour some sugar on it in an “Obvious” attempt to appeal to our sense of sensuality.

Oh yeah. That sh!t working!

Technology/Gaming: Learn To Make Car Repairs In Virtual Reality (Video)

Perhaps not an age-old question, but a cool one to answer: “Can I learn to fix race cars without risking damage to something expensive (like a car, or myself)?” “Oh wait, follow up, I don’t have a car, garage or tools of my own; does that matter much?. Oh, and wait, do I have to get ‘dirty’ and stuff?” Hahaaa!

Fix your car…in VR!

It’s time to get your car ready for racing without getting your hands dirty. “Wrench” is an indie game for virtual reality that lets players assemble photorealistic components for a custom race car. Players diagnose problems with their speed machines and try to fix them.

The game is still in development, and the developers say it won’t include any driving simulation either.

Well, there’s your answer!

Kairi Chanel Is The Apple Of Dave East’s Eye, And The Center Of His World (Video)

Getting a real look at the real lives of these emcees nowadays. Just saw 50 Cent speaking on fatherhood (here) and now here’s Dave East talking about beasting it out… for his daughter. Now, THAT’S dope!

“I know how it feels to ask for something and your mother be like, ‘nah,’” the Harlem rapper tells MASS APPEAL while buying clothes for his 17-month-old daughter, Kairi. “I don’t want her to not know how to accept ‘no,’ but I want to make sure it’s there, regardless. So if I’m telling her no, it’s because of a reason, not cause I ain’t got it.”

East’s daughter, Kairi Chanel, is the namesake of his 2016 mixtape and the center of his world.

Watch A PBS Documentary On The Late Rock & Roll Pioneer, Fats Domino (Video)

Man oh man. Rest in peace to the legendary Fats Domino!

Fats Domino was one of the most popular rockers of the 1950s and early 60s. His achievements and record sales during that time were rivaled only by Elvis Presley. With his boogie-woogie piano-playing rooted in blues, rhythm & blues, and jazz, he became one of the inventors, along with Presley, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard of a revolutionary genre of music, rock ‘n’ roll.
– PBS

We might argue about that list of rock ‘n’ roll architects, but PBS is on point with this documentary. Good fodder for discussion and/or a primer for those who need to backfill knowledge about who the world just lost.

Gaming/Relationships: Man Marries The Anime Character Of His Dreams (Video)

Hmm… file this under, “Naaaah, not crazy at all. Do you, um, player!”

Japanese adult game developer Hibiki Works recently performed a VR assisted wedding between a man and the anime character of his dreams. The wedding – which actually took place in a chapel in Tokyo – was part of Hibiki Works’ promotion of their upcoming game “Niizuma: Lovely x Cation.”
– Vocativ

So, question: With the virtual wife concept… Would that be ‘death do them part’ after losing one life on the video game; or is this an ‘all lives matter’ situation (like, you have to stay with the new virtual spouse through all your game lives).

Pusha T – “Bodega Babies” (Video)

Okay, so it’s a promo video for adidas Originals… but that Pusha track entitled “Bodega Babies” is featured prominently in it. And speaking of prominent (e.g. placed to be very recognizable), anybody heard that beat before? Like during the Swizz Beatz vs. Just Blaze beat battle we posted on here?

The Bodega, a place for growth and evolution in all senses; where people buy their groceries, hang outside at night, and gain respect from peers. We pay tribute to the hub of many communities. The EQT Support Ultra King Push “Bodega Babies” hits the streets November 3rd. #KingPushEQT
– adidas Originals

Oh, and before you ask, of course, I know who the thickalicious bodacious Honey that walked into the Bodega mid-flick is… Fabolous knows her, too. That’s his wifey Emily Bustamante aka Emily B. Mercy on me, Fab is a fortunate man #BLESS

A Look At Life “Across The Tracks” In The 1960s (Trailer)

Powerful story on racial identity: The way you see it, the way the world sees it, the way the way you see it changes as time goes on and the world changes… Wow.

If you could choose, which would you choose? Are you sure? This is SELF-examination time. Be sure to examine in context, too. This treatise always makes for compelling movie-making (ex: “Imitation Of Life”).

Two African American sisters grow up in racially charged 1960s Georgia, but one is born with fair skin. And when schools integrate in their small town, she decides to change her destiny – by passing for White.

Eye Candy: Fiorella In Swimsuits… ‘Nuff Said! (Video)

Ain’t no need for me (or you) to lie about it. MissPeru aka Fiorella makes me sweat AND brings on the thirst… and the thirst is SO real. Respect to whoever did the beat for this, but yoooooo, respect to Fiorella’s parents for giving her the genes to look so hot in jeans.

But not this go ’round. All swimwear in there! You’re welcome.
