Remember when Griffey played for the mariners? I do! (very irrelevant!) Seattle was ranked #1 most "wired" city by Forbes.com. Call me a nerd if you want to but I love having internet access everywhere I go! OH YEA! BOSTON also made the list of most "wired-cities" I like that! People should fucks with Boston a lot harder!
I like these a lot!! I'll be in LA by the end of May and I <3 the 1's in low, perfect fit! Any coincidence that Jordan released these around the same time Lebron released an LA edition of his latest kicks?
The mix of music and video footage has always interested me. Here are a couple examples I have stumbled across that caught my ear & eye simultaneously:
Radiohead - MK1 x Nat'l Coalition for the Homeless
Trailer for the remake of 'Last House on the Left' x Taken by Trees - Sweet Child O' Mine
-originally performed by Guns n Roses
It's crazy how the music can seem so calming in each example yet accompany such powerful footage!!
An audio-recording by o'drama bin laden has surfaced and urged Muslims to launch a jihad against Israel. Bin Laden also condemned Arab governments for being allies of the Jewish state. In case you don't f*cks with context clues, a Jihad is defined as - "A Musilim holy war or spiritual struggle against infidels".
o'drama, jealous that snippets of Barack's speeches have made their way onto a rap song while he wasn't even asked to appear on any of the the remixes of 'Arab Money!', issued this warning to the president-elect:
"The al-Qaida leader also vowed that the terror network would open "new fronts" against the United States and its allies beyond Iraq and Afghanistan. He said President-elect Barack Obama has received a "heavy inheritance" from George W. Bush -- two wars and "the collapse of the economy," which he said will render the United States unable to sustain a long fight against the mujahedeen, or holy warriors."
Barack's response: "Yo, osama! Bush is out! We straight!"
Uh oh!?

If you liked his performance in 'Italian Job', 'Please be kind Rewind', or '16 Blocks' - then be sure to catch 'Cadillac Records' & 'Next Day Air' - a couple new films co-starring Mos Def. This guy does it all! I recently caught an interview where Mos said that in the last year he assembled an orchestra, wants to get into fashion, and is dropping an album in the spring of 2009 titled 'The Ecstatic'. He even mentioned an interest in bringing back Def Poetry Jam!! Wow! He's doing it all as usual and we can't wait to keep you posted! Stay tuned world, the Mighty Mos Def is back in action!
