Bumpy Knuckles x Wayne Ski – “DA lAyOuT”
January 13, 2016
A lotta n!ggas don’t like me…because they can’t rhyme like me.
– Bumpy Knuckles
Knucks! That damn Black Card got that music that must be checked for. Bumpy Knuckles & Wayne Ski were bold enough to call this track “DA lAyOuT.” They leave it to us to determine if it’s worthy of the title. Check out the stream. And pick yourself up off the floor maaaaan. It’s just Hip-Hop!

50 Cent – “I’m The Man” feat. Sonny Digital (Short Film)
January 13, 2016
So, once you go all Showtime with a series, you gotta move the music videos over a bit to incorporate some major music cinema in there. Step your game up by stepping what’s in your frame up. Got it 50. Got it! Y’all check out this short film (NOT just a video) for “I’m The Man” (featuring Sonny Digital, off “The Kanan Tape” linked below).
Recognize that Eif Rivera is still in the video game wif Fif. All this violence and intrigue (mixed in with heavy doses of dime pieces) kinda makes us wish that “Power” would hurry up and come back on Showtime.
(Scratch that. Ain’t no “kinda” about it. Hurry up with that 50!)

The Singularity Is Coming. Are You Ready To Live Forever? Are You Sure? (Video)
January 13, 2016
Time and again, TEDx Events we come across prove that you can be thoroughly engaged and enlightened by a smart person presenting a point of view at the front of a room. This relatively low-tech presentation of the highest-tech (and perhaps most hopeful/scary) idea is no exception.
This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Would you upload your personality if you could? What do you think of the possibility of living without a physical body? Dr. White addresses a reality that is not so far off as we might think – and what the ethical and philosophical implications of this future might be.
Dr. Jonathan White, originally from Northern Ireland, is a surgeon at the Royal Alexandra Hospital. Dr. White is a renowned teacher, and has won numerous awards for his innovative and creative approach, including being the first surgeon ever selected as a 3M National Teaching Fellow, an honor bestowed in 2014. At TEDx, Dr. White will point out the unforeseen consequences of the rapid technological change we are experiencing – the unexpected societal, medical, and philosophical issues that we now must consider. He will introduce us to the concept of the “singularity”, a possibility which has enormous potential but also carries immense uncertainty. As we enter the next phase of human evolution, Dr. White will pose provocative questions that will challenge our ideas of what the future holds.
Now, before you make up your mind either way, you must check out this write-up at The Activist. Everlasting life, achieved by man by whatever means, is one thing; but what do we do with it? Really think this through. What does a life sentence mean when the prospect of eternal life is on the table? And do we really want to talk about the possibility for resurrection? Mind…blown!

Meet Ahmed Best: The Guy Who Played The Most Hated Character Of The ‘Star Wars’ Franchise (Video)
January 13, 2016
Admission: Always hated Jar Jar Binks as a character in the Star Wars reboots (but @ojones1 said he wasn’t so bad… get him y’all… GET HIM! hahaaaaa!). That said, you kind of feel sorry for the guy who played him, Ahmed Best. That is, you will (most likely) when you watch this clip.
In Episode III of These Are The Actors You’re Looking For; Ahmed Best AKA Jar Jar Binks talks Michael Jackson, the backlash and why he would never return to the Star Wars franchise. He also performs his former co-star Liam Neeson’s famous ‘Taken’ monologue, in the style of Jar Jar!
Um… but see how he is still trying to take bullets for creator George Lucas… saying the kids who first watched “The Phantom Menace” had no problem with it. *Sigh* Hollywood…
(Watch the Liam Neeson a la Jar Jar voice flip by Best at the end.)

11.22.63 (Hulu Original Series Teaser)
January 11, 2016
YOOOOO! This is going to be some absolute insanity on Hulu… and I mean that in the best way!
“11.22.63” is a thriller in which high school English teacher Jake Epping (James Franco) travels back in time to prevent the assassination of President John F. Kennedy — but his mission is threatened by Lee Harvey Oswald, falling in love and the past itself, which doesn’t want to be changed. The eight-part event series based upon the New York Times best-selling 2011 novel written by Stephen King premieres Presidents Day, Feb. 15, 2016, on Hulu.
Watch the trailer… and um… hit me up if you have ‘notes’ on how to do a Hulu and chill. Because I’m gonna be watching this several times (first alone, then with company).
