Inmate To Action Star: The Amazing Life Of Danny Trejo (Video)
September 15, 2017
Nice video summation of the life of an actor who went from the guy you kinda recognize to the accomplished action star you betta reckonize! Thing is, that acting gig turned big came after a prison bid and a f**ked up life before. So glad Danny Trejo pushed through. Seems like a great dude. Which is awesome! With all the movies and commercials (and Trejo’s Tacos restaurant, watch), it would suck if he turned into a Hollywood jerk after being enriched by such humbling experiences.

Ray Allen Knows His Move From Boston To Miami Was Hard On The Fans. But Management & Teammates, They Should Understand… It Was Business (Video)
September 15, 2017
Plain talk from former Celtics standout Ray Allen. Here he is in Shanghai, telling his side of the story. In essence, he is letting viewers & fans know that it wasn’t him wanting to leave Boston, it was the Celtics… not doing what it took to keep him there. No beef with nobody on his side, even though some folks apparently reeeeally had HEAT for him for taking his talents to South Beach.
Ray Allen spoke in an exclusive interview with Tencent’s Lisa Hsu about the Boston Celtics, Miami Heat, Paul Pierce and being a champion. Tencent, ESPN’s partner in China, is hosting its annual Super Penguin Basketball Celebrity Game in Shanghai.
– ESPN
Makes some good points in this interview. Pro sports is BUSINESS, not personal. And there is NO loyalty. The Celts could have dropped Allen, and that would be that; not a tear shed.

September 12, 2017
Okay, score on for REVOLT TV for a full hour of power with MC Hammer. He’ll always be MC Hammer to me. Respect! I still have a chip on MY shoulder about how folks dissed MC Hammer, calling him something ‘other’ than Hip-Hop… Nah, MC Hammer was Hip-Hop; just maybe not how everyone else was doing, and maybe not how many people preferred at the time.
Hammer joined REVOLT to talk Tupac, his former beef with Jay-Z and more!

September 11, 2017
Hmm… Gotta love Trina for her lasting, lovely looks. Still beautiful after all these years. Bringing sexiness to Hip-Hop circles for certain.
But you know, many would say the same about Amber Rose. So, okay, The Drink Champs can now boast that BOTH have been on the show. And both (you’ll see) made great guests. Very engaging convo as the libations flow.

First Feature Film On The Life Of Grace Jones… Ever (Trailer)
September 7, 2017
From music to action fantasies like “Conan The Barbarian” to comedies like “Boomerang”… we’ve seen the carefully-crafted public persona of Grace Jones (and impersonations of such). But what is she really like? Does she really randomly yell challenge questions like, “Do you find me sexy!!?” to people? Get naked in a nanosecond? Flip the switch and knuckle up, ready to throw down at a moment’s notice? Is she ever vulnerable, or is she always a rocker made of rock? We really don’t know, one way or the other, do we? Even after all these years.
However, a cinema verité-style film, “Grace Jones: Bloodlight & Bami,” promises to give us the real. Check out the trailer for a taste of just how real.
Sneaker Shopping With Meek Mill (Video)
September 7, 2017
Meek Mill’s don’t-call-it-a-comeback is coming along just fine. Through the beef with Drizzy, dealing with the Remy-vs-Nicki fallout… Philly’s son stood tall on his own two feet through it all. Never fake. Real, from head to toe. Right down to his shoes. Speaking of which…
Meek Mill goes Sneaker Shopping with Joe La Puma at Stadium Goods, and talks about looking up to Allen Iverson and moving on past his Puma deal.

Questlove Speaks On How F*cked Up It Would Be To Cut The EPA’s Budget (Video)
September 5, 2017
Questlove and the National Resources Defense Council (NRDC) put together this light-hearted PSA on what is ultimately a life or death situation. C’mon, current Administration… What? You don’t think it’s important to ensure that we have drinkable water, breathable air, and uncontaminated produce?? That really is f*cked up.
(All jokes and subtleties aside, don’t mess with the Environmental Protection Agency in ANY way. The EPA’s work is too important for scoring political points.)
Issa Rae Speaks On The Success Of ‘Insecure’ And Her ‘Awkward’ Time With Drake (Video)
September 4, 2017
I’m a red-blooded woman, and I love male body parts.
Yeah, ol’ sexy smooth choco-skinned Issa Rae does it for me. Gotta admit. I don’t even watch ‘The View’ but seeing Issa… had to give a watch. She talks about fans taking the show seriously enough to ‘come for her in her mentions’ due to her cheating, on purposefully including lots of male nudity in her episodes (because, see the quote above), and she talks about the time she met Drake and…
…just watch.
