Happy Veterans Day. Our thoughts are with all of the solders around the world that are fighting for our "freedom," and with those who are no longer in service. Thank you for your hard work and dedication.

I want this!

So this robot can be programmed with a map of your house or wherever you are, and it follows you around playing music. Pretty cool idea that takes portable speakers to the next level. Here is the full story.

What is Wrong With Katt Williams?


So he was arrested for breaking into a home and stealing $3,500 worth of jewelry. Seriously Katt?! You really need to break into someone's home and steal jewelry? You just had an HBO comedy special like 2 years ago... I know the economy's bad, but come on man...

2k Sports


With the NCAA basketball season fast approaching, I would like to take this opportunity to call out 2k Sports. Now, I understand the situation last year, where 2k was nervous that EA would buy the rights to NCAA basketball, and then not be able to release a game in which the put work into. I agree that was a smart move. But with December on the horizon, there is no sign of a College Hoops 2k10. This is extremely frustrating to a huge fan of college basketball like myself, whose only alternative is to got o EA sports sad excuse for a game. I went out and spent $60 on EA sport's NCAA basketball 09 last year and ended up playing College Hoops 2k8 for another year. Please 2k Sports, go back to making college hoops...Maybe even trade MLB for NCAA??? We all know that would please everyone.

Shout out to Joe Girardi!


As much as I love to hate the Yankees, I have to give congratulations to them as well as Northwestern graduate Joe Girardi! They finally put it all together with all of the talent that they bought in the offseason to win a championship. It was a pretty good baseball playoff this year, although I have big problems with baseball playing until NOVEMBER! Thats another subject... Anyways what does Girardi do to celebrate the World Series? He stops on the road and spends his night helping a woman who crashed her car into the wall. Congrats man, keep doing the right thing and winning with class!

This is crazy...but kinda scary...

Not really sure if this is a good thing for society to have, but it is definitely an awesome idea. This is actually a real flamethrower that is attached to your hands. "Super Powers" are imminent...

Artist of the Week - Wale


Wale or Olubowale Victor Folarin is a 25 year old rapper from Washington D.C. He has been on the mixtape seen for a couple of years now with pretty big hits; Mixtape about Nothing and DC Chillin'. He brings a new and refreshing style to hip hop that is upbeat, and catchy. Most of his music is what the call go-go in the DC area, and he is one of the first to bring it to the national stage. Wale is releasing his debut album this coming Tuesday, and I would tell you to go out and get it. It looks to be a solid debut album from the leaks that have come out. Be warned though, do not buy this album expecting to hear hit mainstream singles or club banger after club banger. Wale focuses on lyrical content that is extremely positive towards his fellow black community and artists as well as all of the listeners as a whole. I think that everyone should sit down and actually listen to the album at least once. Just give it a chance, you might learn something from this intelligent, up and coming rapper.

Finally...The Concert Review


WOW...Where to start? Lupe Fiasco single-handedly put on one of the best one man shows that ever was. He created a retrospective look back at his career that spanned from the mixtape days to most recent endeavors. He opened up his heart to the Chicago crowd for nearly 3 hours last Thursday night and it was incredible.
Lupe went back to Revenge of the Nerds mixtapes, and showcased some of his earliest, yet most thoughtful and creative works. Then he somehow sprinkled in all but 3 or 4 songs off of his two albums, along with his new Solar midnight and Shining down. And that wasn't even the most impressive aspect of the show.
The show was divided up into 6 themes. Each theme was preceded by a 2 to 3 minute video of Lupe walking around a big, empty room speaking his mind about the subject. Each one came straight from the heart, as Lupe described his lyrics, love, life, death, progress, and finally Chicago. In the midst of all of those expressed the dark time around his father's death, his view on politics, and why he writes the lyrics that he does. It was truly an honest insight into the world of Lupe Fiasco, and every member of the crowd should have been inspired by the genius that this man laid out in front of them. His genuineness came out in first half of the show when one of his video segments was not working properly. He angrily addressed the Chicago Congress Theater about how they were messing up the show that he and the crowd spent their hard earned money on. He seemed to truly be on a mission to show himself to his hometown Chicago.
If I have one recommendation for anybody reading this, it would be to go and see Lupe Fiasco whenever you have the opportunity. Though the show will probably not be as personal and insightful, I have seen Lupe Fiasco on three other occasions and have never left any less than amazed.

T-Swift Bad Press

First off its said that she didn't even know this guy. Give the girl a break. Second off its being said the initials JH on her dress commonly stand for "Jew Hater." Absurd and ridiculous... Yeah Taylor Swift is a Nazi... I knew it all along
