Eye Candy: Jessica Kylie’s Behind The Scenes Mashup (Video)
February 6, 2016
I can’t ever get enough of Jessica Kylie. I keep posting her.. but that’s necessary… in large part because the Web powers, wherever they be, keep snatching down every other deliciously thick vid I put on here of her. So, word to the wise (or horny, no judgement): You may need to watch this NOW before it’s gone!

A Super Bowl tradition? Is that what we’re calling this pre-Big Game ‘Clueless Gamer’ ep now? Bahaaaaa! That’s alright…especially if #BeastMode keeps coming back.

Usher – “Chains” feat. Nas x Bibi Bourelly (Video)
February 5, 2016
I’ve had enough of running and running and running…
– Usher
True (and likely even casual) Usher Raymond fans would probably agree that his talent is complemented by a care for humanity. From mentoring to speaking on the plight of his people, we’ve seen Usher in there doing what he could. Here he is now, along with Nas & Bibi Bourelly, letting his art (“Chains”) speak on social injustice today. As Nina Simone said, “It’s an artist’s duty to reflect the times in which we live.â€
Kudos, Usher.
Al Jazeera Investigates: The Dark Side (Documentary)
February 5, 2016
Yes, this is the documentary that folks are tying to Peyton Manning. And while the Super Bowl bound quarterback is a key figure in the way all this came about, this work should be allowed to stand on its own as an impactful, informative piece by Al Jazeera. Huge insights into the how and why of high-performing, high-achieving, highly-paid athletes even go there with these chemical enhancements. When is good enough good enough? For them, NEVER. That realization alone should let you begin to understand how far these athletes would go to get the stuff; driving how far/deep into the “Dark Side” folks will go to get the stuff to them.
Al Jazeera investigates the secretive world of doping in sports and raises questions about whether medical professionals are linked to some of the greatest sports heroes.
A related side note: it’s a shame that we are losing Al Jazeera America – one of the few well-respected world-renowned true investigative journalism entities with a foothold in the West. The news agency will shut down in America in April.

Your Old Droog – “42 (Forty Deuce)” [Prod. By Marco Polo]
February 4, 2016
Marco Polo on the beat. Flipping a song probably too old for your ears if you didn’t come up in the 1980s – “I can’t Wait” by Nu Shooz. Your Old Droog even went there with the “Reaganomics” reference. This “42 (Fourty Deuce)” jawn…
You walking down 42nd at night… you might run into me!

Dude speaking on the track like he was there. Dope!
Miles Ahead (Trailer)
February 4, 2016
Nah…just woke up Black…knew how to play…
– Miles Davis
Wow! Everything you heard, and thought you knew, about Miles Davis the jazz (sorry, ‘social music’) great and then some. We have been posting and salivating about this project on here. Now here’s the theatrical trailer. Go, Don Cheadle. GO!
“Miles Ahead” is a wildly entertaining and moving exploration of one of 20th century music’s creative geniuses, Miles Davis, featuring a career defining performance by Oscar nominee Don Cheadle in the title role. Working from a script he co-wrote with Steven Baigelman, Cheadle’s bravura directorial debut is not a conventional bio-pic but rather a unique, no-holds barred portrait of a singular artist in crisis.

Not the music I’d choose (turn it down), but whatever this bartender is serving… I’m getting that, and make it a double! Picking my ‘poison’ would have me picking Melanie Poison Doll most every time.

Ron Rico – “Expectations†feat. Skyzoo x Dan Heely
February 4, 2016
How about that? Aspiration rhyming for real. I mean you got the A$AP movement with Rocky, Ferg and them. But money is at the core of that; and there’s nothing wrong about getting the paper. However, this Ron Rico from Baltimore put “Expectations†together (with Skyzoo & Dan Heely) on some be more than you can see yourself being. Reach for the stars. Feel good rhyme, in a game that us usually about self-aggrandizement, Nice.

Jerry Rice: NFL Hall Of Fame Receiver… And Undercover Lyft Driver (Video)
February 3, 2016
That one guy though. Really dude? You are an all-time, all your life, 49’er fan and you did not recognize the guy you’re sitting next to? One of the team’s… check that…the WORLD’S all-time greats?? Actually… Jerry’s disguise is pretty solid. He can go shopping low-key. Still hilariously wonderful though.
See what happens when Hall of Fame wide receiver Jerry Rice turns on Driver Mode for a day and takes a few unsuspecting Lyft passengers for a ride around town.
Watch the whole song and dance above.

Barbie Doll Evolves To Match The Reality Of A Diverse World (Video)
February 2, 2016
Remember when Nicki Minaj used to holler ‘Barbie’ this and that? Were you mumbling (aloud or in your head) to yourself, “Cute, but not for real. Barbie ain’t shaped nothing like you, Nicki!” Well, I did. And arguments about cultural representation in our kids toys aside, I wasn’t mad about it. It just was what it was… like having a Black U.S. President. President Bill Clinton was pretty cool, and President Nelson Mandela had South Africa for us. I figured that was as close as we would get.
Then we got a Black President, but Mattel (maker of Barbie dolls) wasn’t budging. Y’all better chill with this sharp-nosed White girl with a tan and keep telling your daughters they’re beautiful. Yeah, it WAS like that. Then SOMEBODY at Mattel must have bumped their head and had a thought… Folks are REALLY not wanting to deal with ‘generic’ anything anymore, including toys. Music, Film and TV (the stuff with the characters that dolls mimic) has changed – lotta more shapes, sizes and colors in there. Parents (read: people that might stop buying Mattel’s stuff) are likely looking for that diversity in their babies’ toys, too. Looks like Mattel is back ready to do business…. and so #TheDollEvoles
(Smart business move. Miss me with any other explanation though. They changed for M-O-N–E-Y! That all. But at least our babies can play with something that looks closer to what they look like.)
Good thing, too. My Mom still collects Barbie dolls. I will be making her Christmas merry with some righteous Mattel newness!

iSHi – “We Run” feat. French Montana x Wale x Raekwon (Video)
February 1, 2016
Adding Wale to an already solid line-up was a risk that paid off. Still, let The Chef eat last though. Raekwon is always a good anchor. And iSHi having those two and French Montana on a BOOM-bap (with lots of ‘boom’) is a great look and sound. Purposefully gritty visualization of “We Run” above. Watch and enjoy.
