Congrats to the Orlando Magic

I can't even get on twitter right now *sucks* I just want to say SKIP TO MY LOU IS GOING TO THE NBA FINALS!!!!! That's so damn Amazing. Shout out to all the AND 1 players and to all the fans like me!

Notice all the high school players were playing Kobe, Lebron, and D. Howard. Melo was a year removed and one a title for Syracuse. But too all that said they were making the biggest mistake by not going to college and they weren't ready for the NBA, you gotta be choking on those words.

Bo$$ - Deeper

Time flies. Boss is one of the my favorite female rappers. Everyone says her downfall was that she was a fraud. Do you know how many cases of fraud there are in the music business? See back then being authentic mattered and was career killer, now nobody cares if you freestyle from a Blackberry, LOL!

I couldn't embed my favorite song by her "Recipe of a Hoe" this song is so gangsta and is very influential in my development and I'm being dead serious. I couldn't imagine being 13/14 in 2009 and feeling pressured to wear skimpy clothes and hair weave. Back then I rocked baggy jeans, plaid flannel shirts, and wore my hair like Left Eye. Click here for "Recipe..."

Read: Same as the old Boss: Female gangsta trailblazer determined to re-emerge {6/16/04 Detroit Metro Times} - This tells the real story about what happened to her.

Peter Rosenberg x Drake x Kanye makes a cameo

and Big Sean too (I just love him:)) I love how Drake is just stirring and sipping his tea the whole time and couldn't really name is favorite hip hop albums. He's not great at being put on the spot and maybe dude just doesn't live and die by the funk, LOL. But check it out Pete Rosenberg is always entertaining and full of stories he could have a great interview with newborn baby.

Two Turntables & a MP3 Player

Why?

It would seem if you were heading in the right direction like up and coming artist, Dolla born Roderick Anthony Burton II, you wouldn't get shot like a dog in the street while waiting in the valet area of an upscale mall in Los Angeles. I've seen Dolla's videos a few times, they held my attention and he had the right formula for success. His eyes were what stood out to me the most. So when I heard the news I had to look him up youtube to make sure it was who I thought it was. Never would I have imagined this turn of events or the life Dolla lived before scoring his so called "big break". He lost a twin due to an enlarged heart, his father committed suicide in front of him and another sister is incarcerated. Obviously he was put in the role of being the provider for his family at an early age having sold drugs and having the wherewithal to start a his first rap group at age 12. The group would eventually land a record deal in 2001. Dolla was 13. That's amazing. It seems who ever pulled the trigger really wanted this 21 year old man dead and I really want to know why? Why do Black men look at themselves as being so disposable that you can kill at will in broad daylight? This wasn't the hood it was the Beverly Center. Sounds like a straight hit.

Cassidy signed with Melo's label Krossover Entertainment

I missed this news. I see a statement was released in November 2008, but supposedly it happened months before that. Oh well, its news to me today, lol. I actually went on the site to read LaLa's statement about what went down at the Mavs v. Nuggets game last night. Madness I tell you LaLa had to regulate. Must be the same people that left comments on TMZ today (ignorant assholes). But getting back to the positive, you can keep up with Cassidy Da Hustla at http://www.krossoverent.com/ and on twitter.com/larsinyfamily. Philly stand up!

In related news: Cassidy knows what a freestyle is, lol!

Technology dependence is a horrible drug

KIDS...THIS IS NOT A FREESTYLE. I REPEAT, THIS IS NOT A FREESTYLE. THIS IS SOME BULLSHIT. ITS A NICE FLOW, DEFINITELY, BUT THIS IS NOT A FREESTYLE. THE END JUST KILLED IT FOR ME AT THE 5:00 MARK AND THIS IS WHY I WRITE IN ALL CAPS!!!
