Charlamange Breaks Down Jay-Z vs Lil Wayne

Finally someone says what i've been thinking! Lil' Wayne fans take notes because your favorite rapper is about to get a dose of reality. I'm sorry but I'm sick of the general public being on such a Young Money bandwagon. Anyone who knows anything about music will recognize that my man Charlamange just nailed this one on the head. His comments about the classic beef between Jay-Z and Nas are spot on too.
Definitely worth a watch:

Meek Mill - The Making of "Dreams & Nightmares" Part 7

Custom Built Orchestra

Lil' Wayne talks 'I Am Not A Human Being II' with MTV


Looks like Lil' Wayne might have given in to the big dogs of the industry on his upcoming album, "I Am Not A Human Being II." Smart move when you consider that the artists from Deaf Jam are sonically ruling the world on an untouched level:
"I don't wanna give too much up but Yeezy got a big hand in the album. You'll see, you'll see"

Apple Introduces The IPad Mini

via. illroots

Big news for Apple, I think that the IPad Mini will be a great, more cost effective option for a lot of consumers who are looking to buy an IPad but are low on cash. Smaller also means more discrete and portable. Looks dope boy fresh...

"Apple made an announcement earlier today about the launch of their latest iPad, dubbed the iPad Mini. Some of the characteristics this device carries include being 25% thinner and 53% lighter than its predecessor, front-facing FaceTime 720p camera and a 5-megapixel rear camera, 10-hour battery life, and more. As for the cost of the iPad Mini, the 16GB model will be $329, 32GB at $429, and 64GB for $529. Pre-orders for this device will start on October 26th"





NEW: gTar digital guitar

via. likecool

My first question is, "What can't an iPhone do?"
The answer seems to scream, "Nothing!"
Almost daily I come across a new invention tailored for the iPhone, and this one looks like it has the potential to be another smash hit. All you have to do is dock your iPhone to the body of the gTar and load up the gTar app and you'll be ready to rock your heart out on this digital guitar. It uses an array of interactive LED lights along the frets and actually teaches novice guitar players how to play.
Looks like some portable Guitar Hero on steroids. #Idigit

Hot or Not: Nike Pro Printed Women Tight

Via: NikeInc

Check out the newest Dri-FIT tights available from Nike. These tights made exclusively for women are intended to "give a glimpse of [womens] inner toughness." With images of X-Ray bones digitally printed on the outside, the tights show off the bone structure of a woman (I don't think this design would work well for the fellas).

According to Nike, "They are not to be worn by the timid, the weak or the wallflower. They are for the woman who wants to let people know she’s not just an average girl – she’s an athlete."

The Nike Exclusive Print Tight is now available on HERE in limited quantities.

So, what do you think ladies? Hot or not?

Whose Over-The-Head Pass Was Better?

Check out these over-the-head "wedding bouquet" passes executed by 2 different high school quarterbacks this past weekend.

The first pass was executed by Ravenna (Ohio) High quarterback Tate Bennett. Bennett's game winning touchdown pass came late in the 4th quarter to seal the win. His pass was more of a desperation heave into the end zone. Check it out:



The next pass was thrown by Tumwater (Wash.) High quarterback Jayden Croft. Croft connected with tight end Jamie Bryant on a 2 point conversion try with just under 3:00 remaining to send them into overtime. Keep in mind: Unlike Bennetts, this play was no fluke...it was a gutsy, bizarre play designed to score.



So whose throw do you think was better: Bennett's lucky toss for the win or Croft's over-the-head overtime clincher? Comment!

Instagram Socialmatic Camera

Here's a sneak peak at an upcoming concept from Instagram that may or may not once again change our social media. It seems outlandish to think that people would just print and post pictures around town, but I could really see this trend grabbing on and taking over. Just think, you could leave a trail of pictures everywhere you went.

Kelly Rowland Announces Upcoming Album

One of the sexiest voices in the game, and a beautiful girl: Ms. Kelly Rowland just released this promo photo and announced that her upcoming album, set to release early next spring. The project will be called Year Of The Woman. Sounds intriguing, can't wait to start hearing clips!


NEW: Meek Mill feat. Big Sean - Burn [Music Video]

So excited about this video, one of my favorite songs of the summer and this video is ice cold. Produced by DRE Films so you know that videography is on point. Getting real hype for Meek Mills album Dreams and Nightmares, which hits stores October 30th. Take a look:

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World vs. Dubstep

I really like this mix and the clips that SkratcherUK picked from the movie Scott Polgrim vs. The World were perfect. I am not always into this hardcore type of Dubstep unless I'm on acid or working out, however I think he used great sounds and it's definitely worth a listen.

Hit play next time you're trying to speed clean your room or trying to get hype at the gym:

Sometimes this is how I feel:


Facebook Reaches 1 Billion Users [Video]

Today Facebook reached a huge milestone of 1 billion monthly active users. That means that approximately 1 out of every 7 people on the planet are connected to Facebook. Incredible.

For this milestone Mark Zuckerberg released their first video and a short statement:

"Celebrating a billion people is very special to me. It's a moment to honor the people we serve.

For the first time in our history, we've made a brand video to express what our place is on this earth.

We believe that the need to open up and connect is what makes us human. It's what brings us together. It's what brings meaning to our lives.

Facebook isn't the first thing people have made to help us connect. We belong to a rich tradition of people making things that bring us together.

Today, we honor this tradition.

We honor the humanity of the people we serve.

We honor the everyday things people have always made to bring us together:

Chairs, doorbells, airplanes, bridges, games. These are all things that connect us.

And now Facebook is a part of this tradition of things that connect us too.

I hope you enjoy this video as much as we do.

Thanks for helping connect a billion people."




My Thoughts: Learn and Grow

Learn form every situation. 
Apply what you've learned to future situations and become a better person. That's all you can ask of yourself and that's all you can ask of others. Life is too short to dwell on things that are out of your control. 
All you can do is learn and grow.
