Intel Presents: Museum of Me

Photobucket
This is actually really ill. Intel has partnered with Facebook to create Museum of Me. It basically takes your Facebook profile and creates a virtual "museum" of yourself. It uses photos, friends and words and definitely works best if your profile is unlocked. I highly recommend you check this one out.

I mean, that's way more than doable. Go "Like" the page on Facebook...it only takes a second and then we all can cop the box set for the low.

Thanks,

Inside Mark Jackson’s Job Interview

Photobucket
This is why Trey Kerby is the funniest NBA writer alive. I saw this last night on The Basketball Jones and it was far too funny not to share. We all know that Mark Jackson has recently been hired as the Head Coach of the Golden State Warriors. We also know that he has a number of sayings, some funny and some....not so funny. [Ex. "Are You Kidding Me?", "You're Better Than That.", "Mama there goes that man!", "Hand Down, Man Down."] Well, Trey basically wrote the play-by-play of how he imagined Mark Jackson's interview went. It's beyond perfect.

Joe Lacob, Warriors owner: Hi, Mark. We’re really glad you’re able to meet with us today.

Mark Jackson: Are you kidding me?

Jerry West, consultant: OK, so let’s get in to some Xs and Os. We’re kind of notorious for our poor defense. How would you change that?

MJ: Hand down, man down.

JL: Excuse me?

MJ: Hand down, man down.

JL: So … you’d tell the team to keep their hands down?

MJ: You’re better than that.

JW: You’d tell them to keep them up?

MJ: Mama, there goes that man. (points at West and winks)

JW: What?

MJ: Are you kidding me?

JW: No, I’m serious. What about my mama? (raises fist)

MJ: Calm down, palm down...

You can read this web gem in its entirety at TheBasketballJones.com.

I would highly recommend it.


Oh yea, and this. [Thanks @fivefifths.]

Big Sean - Finally Famous [Tracklist]

I've pretty much been waiting for this upcoming effort from Big Sean since my man Deuce put me on Getcha Some way back in Spring 2007. I thought Sean was ill back then, but he's honestly done nothing but improve year after year. Check out the Tracklist for Sean's first solo album, Finally Famous:

1. Intro - (Produced by: Kevin Randolph, Key Wane)
2. I Do It - (Produced by: No I.D., The Legendary Traxster)
3. My Last feat. Chris Brown - (Produced by: No I.D.)
4. Don’t Tell Me You Love Me - (Produced by: No I.D.)
5. Wait For Me feat. Lupe Fiasco - (Produced by: No I.D. & Exile)
6. Marvin & Chardonnay feat. Kanye West & Roscoe Dash - (Produced by: Pop Wansel & Mike Dean)

Three things stick out to me: No production from Kanye (surprising), four bonus tracks that look absolutely amazing and also the presence of my man Duece from WrighTrax. If you haven't heard of him, check him out. One of my classmates from Morehouse, obviously making moves in the industry. Keep your eyes on him.


Finally Famous, June 28th.

A.ware - Lady Heroin [Album]

Photobucket
Any blogger can tell you that it's pretty easy to fall behind in your posts. Throw in a full-time job, frequently tearing up DC basketball courts and a rager lifestyle during the weekends and you get the idea. I did, however, need to make it back to get the word out about my boy A.Ware's most recent project, is Lady Heroin. It dropped yesterday and it's really sick. A.Ware and the team at Greedmont Park have been doing some pretty ill things as of late. Listen or Download Lady Heroin here.
