"Doncamatic (All Played Out)" Gorillaz ft. Daley [Music Video]

We are not on that commercial tip here @ the Master G blog.

We try to bring you diverse, abstract, and wild content to expand your mind!!!

Therefore, take a look at Gorillaz's newest video masterpiece to blow your mind! Visuals are neat, beat moves ya feet, singer is sweet.

What do you think? Wild or mild?

G.O.O.D. music!

This is seriously out cold (which means really good to all of you moms out there who check out the Master G blog, ha!)....Better than that run of the mill bull *ish we supposedly like on the radio?

I really enjoy the washed out effect in the video. Looks crissssp.

He reminds me of a young Kanye West.

My Thoughts: Allison Stokke

I love female athletes.

Female athletes have a special sexiness to them. They are confident, hard working, and have rocking bodies!

I am not, in any way, attributing to sexism. I am actually praising women who are dedicated to a challenging endeavor!

Check out Allison Stokke. One of the spiciesssst female track and field athletes out there!

"I Need a Doctor" Dr.Dre ft. Eminem

Image via: HipHopDX

This is what I'm talking about!

Eminem is a huge trending topic these days. Is he straying away from his roots or creating something new? This track is highly debatable in that sense. The vocal effects are unique, although I don't know if they add anything to the song. The beat is very "Recovery"-esque...loud drums and long, somber melodies.

Do you need a doctor when you hear this or are you diggin' it?

NEW on Facebook!

Via: FB Blog

Our favorite networking site is overhauling their messaging system and more. Here is what Mark Z's engineer had to say about the new improvements:

"Seamless Messaging:

Today I'm excited to announce the next evolution of Messages. You decide how you want to talk to your friends: via SMS, chat, email or Messages. They will receive your message through whatever medium or device is convenient for them, and you can both have a conversation in real time. You shouldn't have to remember who prefers IM over email or worry about which technology to use. Simply choose their name and type a message.

We are also providing an @facebook.com email address to every person on Facebook who wants one. Now people can share with friends over email, whether they're on Facebook or not. To be clear, Messages is not email. There are no subject lines, no cc, no bcc, and you can send a message by hitting the Enter key. We modeled it more closely to chat and reduced the number of things you need to do to send a message. We wanted to make this more like a conversation."

AND

"Conversation History:

Messages is built for communicating with your friends, so it made sense to organize primarily around people. All of your messages with someone will be together in one place, whether they are sent over chat, email or SMS. You can see everything you've discussed with each friend as a single conversation.

I'm intensely jealous of the next generation who will have something like Facebook for their whole lives. They will have the conversational history with the people in their lives all the way back to the beginning: From "hey nice to meet you" to "do you want to get coffee sometime" to "our kids have soccer practice at 6 pm tonight." That's a really cool idea."

Embrace your flaws. Critique your demons. Overcome your greatest fear. Start today.

For those of you who are international fans, let me say thank you for your ongoing support! We see you Denmark, Mexico, all of you Europeans...Thanks!

Here in the states...and more specifically Michigan...we love our football (pigskin, large men, quarterback football...not FOOT-ball LOL).

Denard Robinson is one of the more electrifying quarterbacks in college football today. Although the University of Michigan football team won today, Robinson did terrible for his standards.

Today he attempted to trick the defense with a quick punt down field and THIS happened:

Today Show: Kanye West Interview

In this interview, Matt Lauer of the Today Show asks Kanye about what EVERYONE has asked him millions of times the George Bush and Taylor Swift "incidents." First of all, can we get over that shit? Second of all, talk to the guy about his music, what he is doing now, and what he plans to do in the future. I hate when the media has an agenda to get ratings by cornering a guy who they know they can get an honest, raw, uncut answer from!!! He is going to tell you how he feels!!!

Now check out the footage (which is heavily edited by Today) of Kanye's reaction when Today put the video footage of the George Bush & Taylor Swift incidents. I think in a moment of truthfulness and forgiveness I would have done the same thing too!

At LEAST cut the volume out, stick the camera on Kanye's face, and put the video in the corner of the screen...

Anyway, you be the judge...

Sports and entertainment have always coexisted together. Think about the collaborations during halftime shows, music videos, and the ponder the luxurious lifestyles of famous athletes and musicians.

Michael Jordan & Michael Jackson are the most influential people in their respected careers. But who had a bigger impact on culture? Who had more fans? Who had more enemies? Who changed the rules? WHO IS THE BETTER MJ?
