Lebron James, Chris Bosh, And Drake… Interview Each Other? (Video)

…two of the greatest guys that I’ve ever encountered… We’ve done things that people know about… and don’t know about…
Lebron James

This group sit-down, chit-chat, termed as a three-way interview, or something like that, is pretty damn dope. “A conversation amongst friends” is the right way to describe it. Good stuff.

(So, clearly, Drizzy is the joke-cracker of the crew. Bosh right in there with the silly with ’em.)

Oddisee’s with another one, animated, crazy, but on point. These are the visuals for “You Grew Up.” Off “The Iceberg” LP (out now).

Technology: See Teslas In Tunnels, Skating Under The Traffic (Video)

Crazy… like a genius. Yep, real-life Tony Stark (you know, billionaire tech futurist Elon Musk) leaving President Trump’s advisory cabal has left him with more time/energy to put into going to, landing on & living on Mars… making super-cool cars that come when you call them & drive themselves…

Now, we know that we can reduce traffic glut & stress (on people and our environment) if we relied more on high-tech, mass transit, or some combo of the two. But we LOVE being in our own cars (e.g. our own personal travel spaces). So how about this: Musk’s new tunneling business, Boring Company (‘boring’ like ‘drilling’), instead of pushing people onto buses and trains, is trying to make it possible to get our CARS on board. Watch the clip above. See how Musk can help sweep up the traffic mess, while allowing cars to hop on ‘skates’ and sweep past traffic, UNDERGROUND in a tunnel.

Watch The Final Teaser For “Geostorm” (Trailer)

Sending prayers to Puerto Rico, Florida, Texas, and all in the wake of the hurricanes and tropical storms. Much has happened in the way of natural phenomena attacking humanity where it lives since the first “Geostorm” trailer we posted. Of course, this epic enviro-thriller will take things extremely over the top, but it does kind of trigger feelings regarding our own dealings with nature’s wrath.

Okay, on with the trailer. One last look (trailer) before it hits big silver screens.

Comedy: Don’t Worry. “The President” Has A Plan… Chaos! (Video)

Bwaaahahaaa! Alec Baldwin is tearing President Trump up in these Saturday Night Live skits. But who’s SNL going to throw in the pot to roast with ‘The Donald’ now that ‘Spicey’ is gone? How about Trump’s AG (Attorney General)… the only OG appointee of note that is still around… Jeff Sessions! Yeah, they cook him, too.

And on this particular skit: Sure, the premise is funny; but it’s kinda plausible #ChaosTheory

Taking The Knee: If Terry Crews Was Still In The League, He Would Kneel (Video)

Damn. The preview clip. Crews popped! Got a point though. Football, as we know it in The States, is pretty much just “American football”… The world doesn’t play it that way. We are ‘playing ourselves’ if we think the world gives a good van DAM about the Sunday games or whether we boycott them.

BUT… He does talk some real talk about what everyone in the WORLD would care about… human lives, liberty, love… or the lack thereof. The U.S. nor the NFL, really not loving Black people.

All that and more. Plus Terry with a great perspective on your worth as a HUMAN BEING.

Watch!

“Keloid” Is Young, Black, And Super-Powered! Binge Season 1. Here. NOW! (Video)

Holy sheeeit! This “Keloid” series could very well cause Blerdgasms (Blerd = BLack nERD, and if you don’t know ‘gasms’ go Google or ask your parents or some sh!t) across the Interwebs! Have you peeped it out yet? A really compelling take on the coming of age, coming into one’s own, story of a youngster with abilities. Right in keeping with young hero sagas like Gotham already on Fox Television and The Gifted and Cloak & Dagger hitting the tube soon. And see, “Keloid” is already on YouTube, thanks to continued crowdfunding.

In episode 1, Keloid and his mom disagree about the emergence of his special abilities – telepathy, telekinesis, teleportation and the control of electricity. Meanwhile his girlfriend Aisha appears at his door unannounced. Is she right on time, or is it the worst time possible?
– Black TV & Film Collective

CRAZY! Check out Episode 1 above. More (like, the rest of the season!) after the jump, after the funding link below… where you can support if you like.

Okay! Uncle Murda doing the right things… Eye Candies in thongs, poolside video for the song, directed by 50’s goto guy Eif… the reasons for predicting early success for Lenny Grant go “On & On.” Knew this joint deserved a video when we heard and posted it on here a while back.

The History Of Sister Nancy’s “Bam Bam” (Video)

Wow! The origin/evolution story of one of the quintessential Hip-Hop melodies told in a dope montage. Respect Sister Nancy!

The music of reggae legend Sister Nancy has played a pivotal role in Hip-Hop for over 30 years, but she’s rarely seen profits from her influence. Recently, Jay-Z sampled Nancy’s “Bam Bam” for his track “Bam,” the same song Kanye West reworked for his ‘The Life of Pablo’ cut “Famous.” Genius decided to trace the song’s evolution from a local hit to a frequently-sampled component of Hip-Hop.

L’Orange – “The Everyday Illusion” (Instrumental)

Another nice-nice from “The Ordinary Man” LP (due out next month). Gotta love how dude does the old, old school sound bit samples in his music… like in this “Everyday Illusion” instrumental.

Raven Felix – “Job Done” feat. Wiz Khalifa

Well, well, Wiz. She’s cute. You should introduce us. Oh… that’s what this music is about? Thanks.

So, okay folks. Like always for Khalifa’s camp, it’s Taylor Gang or Die! And with Raven Felix on this (and that cover – whew!), let’s just say that there won’t be a need for much arm-twisting to check for Khalifa and his artist Felix on this “Job Done” work (off that Valifornication, by Raven Felix, out now)!

But we’re gonna listen for them bars though. This is Hip-Hop!

RAVEN FELIX – JOB DONE FEAT. WIZ KHALIFA | VALIFORNICATION (LP)

Talib Kweli – “Heads Up Eyes Open” feat. Rick Ross x Yummy Bingham

Take it to the top. There’s where we are with it.
Talib Kweli

Rick Ross is a Bawse fa’sho… yet he & Yummy felt compelled to answer Kweli’s call to jump on this choral vehicle (“Heads Up Eyes Open”) and ride it; to go up on this Talib trip. And the results feel spiritual. Good music for ya. Yeah, that is where we are with it indeed!
