Talk about e-game! This beats flowers any day, and it’s substantially cheaper (it’s free). Make somebody’s day by throwing them an audio postcard. They end up real chic, too. check it out:

I sent one to my mom for her birthday. (It’s today. If you know her, find her and wish her a happy birthday. Whatever you do, do not ask her age.) You know you wanna try it out too.

WOW. better press that “play” button.

the marty mcfly’s. the real joints, slim. actually, it’s just one shoe. but whatever. i just saw B2TF: II on TV like two days ago, too. supposedly they work with the power laces and everything, too.

what exactly are power laces?

OH BOY! originally called the SLAM BALL’s, and then the nike mag’s. read up on the history, gather up 2.5 G’s, and bid on these bad boys here. oh wait, the auction’s over. still, though. you coulda had them.

homeboy who is selling them is the designer, and i suspect he has come across hard times, because he woulda let these joints fly a minute ago. or maybe i’m just hating.

if you win, they come with a bunch of extras, like the original sketch of the shoe.

i know this isn’t a fashion blog or anything, but you know these things are crazy. if you want a close up of them in action from the movie, visit EF lifestyle and peep their logo.

i remember when the incoming class of ’09 at BC was required to read obama’s dreams from my father. my mom wouldn’t let me leave the house until i finished it. the man was unknown to me at that time (this was 2005, man. i didn’t know a damn thing about politics), but once i got into it, i was shocked, astounded, dazed, and confused to learn that the current illinois senator referred to himself as a junkie and pothead. now he’s running for president. and he’s by far the coolest person to do it.

this special edition cover is one of eight for ebony magazine’s feature on the “25 coolest brothers of all time.” to peep the rest, click here.

it leaked. and b. trotter hooked me up at 2 am in the AM. except pretty much all of mo county lost power after that tornado. nas vegas still is powerless in silver spring, similar to how whoever was in sleepless in seattle was sleepless in seattle. so i didn’t hear it until 8 this morning. i’m a little blown it leaked this early, and i hope they recoup these album sales somehow. i’m purchasing. will you?!

it’s ok. i think it’s the worst out of the three so far though. but i’m only 3 hours in, playback-wise. it’ll probably grow on me like. i hope this leaked version is missing tracks, though. the key to the second album was those hidden joints that weren’t listed on the album cover. if there are no more tracks, i’ll be slightly blown. all the joints i heard live in concert may or may not be the best joints on the album. and they threw us pretty much all the hip-hop influenced tracks early, probably so that community wouldn’t excommunicate them like they usually do.

holler if you wanna hear it. but buy it on the 10th. and d’wayne’s joint as well.

“started out hustlin, ended up ballin.”

skateboard p tells you what’s hot in his book. not too sure how i feel about that big purple bag though. maybe when i get to that level, but right now, i can’t fade it. good looks, barron.

if you still need more N*E*R*D in your life, check out this crazy interview they did. shae even chimes in about the richmond show, which me and my homies hit up with reckless abandon:

“the cool thing about [our recent performance] in richmond,” says Haley, “is that it was just n*e*r*d. We were doing all the secondary markets, reaching out to all our fans that made us. it wasn’t as extravagant as the amphitheater. we’re happy to be a part of the bill with lupe and rihanna and kanye, but there’s nothing like a straight n*e*r*d show.“

preach. and i feel like throwing a dog a bone right about now. a special, rare type of bone that nobody really has. enjoy.

download: n*e*r*d – anti (live from richmond show)

“you so anti, it don’t even matter.”

after hearing that, you can’t tell me you aren’t excited for the new album. yezzir.
