Set Your Price...

Body language says it all for real. If you caught Rap City yesterday it was quite sad. Hav with his sunglasses on constantly looking at the ground or away from the camera with his shoulders slumped, and Pee being a little overcompensatingly cocky with the Cam'ron "Hey Ma" ring starter kit. Honestly I can see this being the demise of the group. Like dude said if you're gonna sell out, make sure that the price guarantees you only have to do it once. These cats sold they souls and they realize that its pretty irreparable at that this point. I don't even think this has to do with Confidential Informant #50, it has to do with them mortgaging everything they got and running full speed into the G-Unit buzzsaw like a guy marrying the first piece of p*ssy he ever gets. I wonder what happened faster, the ink drying on the the contract or the tattoo guy completing Maytag P's hand job. This whole deal cost them more than they were willing to pay and its gonna show. I don't think they need to get all Dave Chappelle about it and give back the loot, but I think they really need to take stock in what they sold in scope to what they gained. Dre beats aint cheap, them videos ain't cheap and I know despite all the advance sh*t they're getting they're always gonna be in debt and are in a hole they're never gonna get out of. I actually had some hope for this album, I could understand club bangers like "Outta Control" to get them some buzz but the Mobb has never been about slick sh*t. Now who are they really threatening? Joey Badabing hopped up on Ecstasy yelling at the waitress for his table service bottle of Grey Goose? Plus to use the SOHH "You're Old You Suck" mindstate, even though you guys are the same height as your average 12 year old, you're in your early 30's. Your day of the rugged shorty is over so to quote your new boss Mobb Deep is "black history" compared to the rest of the TRL crowd. Hey they can at least take solace in they've alwas faired better than MOP. I defintely forsee that signing as the Mash Out Posse jacking another label for another signing loot. I'm sure we'll see Olivia's sophomore album before we get that EP...

Kobe for MVP...

I hope I'm not jinxing the Lakers here but I'm personally looking forward to a Western Conference Semi-Finals that resembles the old 25 to Life record "LA, LA". (On a side note Mobb Deep, saw you on Rap City... I could see the shame in your eyes through your sunglasses. Christopher Reeve has more spine then you guys!!!) Steve Nash, who has some how become America's favorite Canuck since Alanis Morrisette was definitely deserving of an encore MVP. I mean he did his thing eh! Regardless of Kobe doing more with less and having such feats as outscoring the ENTIRE Mavs team in three quarters, dropping 81, and the scoring title, I could see the argument for Nash. Then came the playoffs.. Where Jellybean's kid, and Sharia's little brother (Temple U. What!) some how bounced and flipped the MVP title in to the UFC. They say to become the best you gotta beat the best, and in this head to head series Kobe's been handing Steve his ass and a six of Molson XXX to wash it all down with. The dunk was sorta impressive (but he's like 6'2"), but in watching Sunday's game after vexing the shit out of Mr. MVP I've watched Kobe take another step in his Jordan doppelganger dream.... I'm riveted to the TV tonight to see how this all plays out. All I'm saying is that if Kobe and his band of Lakers pulls the 7th seed upset people my have to revist their ballots... I mean he did something Jordan COULDN'T DO - he got Kwame Brown to play... However Kobe, your sneaker game is FUCKED!


While we're talking playoffs I would like to say that this is an all-time low for Playoff Edition kicks... 'Sheed holds it down as always (complete with the straps undone), I mean LeBron has got some heat (can we get a release?), but LBJ's appeal also lies in that there is no comp out there really. I mean I can remember a few years back where cats had custom Jordan retros and people were just being flavorful with the footwear. Now is just and boatload of 2K5's and generic team kits. Come on NBA. Step your shoe game up... Why is Jalen Rose doing commentary?

Weekly shouts: The Jets for drafting smart! The Clippers winning a series for the first time in 30 years. The Mets for holding it down. Mobb Deep for dropping a club banger single and another brick album! LenDale White for bailing on his interview with Susie Kolber during the draft live on air (she hasn't been that flustered since the Broadway Joe proposal). Fuck Stephon Marbury. Big up to Kool Bob Love aka "Soul Food Bob", I can watch your show now thanks to my DVR! Big ups to Roland & Russ for the alcoholic vibes. As always shouts to the crew back home in NYC, you know who you are I'll be home next week.
