ESPN The Magazine has a new music issue in these streets and it has all kinda goodies in it like LaMarr Woodley, Marshawn Lynch and Trent Richardson as Run-D.M.C., James Stewart as Rick James, and Allyson Felix as Beyonce. (And that's not even mentioning the fact that LeBron James and Dr. Dre are on the freaking cover!) But if you ask me, there's nothing better in the issue than Tampa Bay QB Josh Freeman dressed up as Michael Jackson because he looks like a long lost Jackson already. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if his resemblance to the Jacksons is what brought the idea for the issue up in the first place.
Anyway, enjoy the behind-the-scenes look above, Josh's interview with the mag, and his official MJ photos.

Bad Rabbits Cover Human Nature
Human Nature has got to be in the top 5 greatest songs to hear played by a live band. It's just a great song in general, but the Bad Rabbits do it up nicely. Fiyah Muzik.

Kanye West: The "Runaway" Interview
MTV.com has up a 16 part interview with Kanye West after the premiere of "Runaway" (because putting all these 2-3 minutes videos in one would've been too easy). Obviously I'm too lazy to post all 16, but I did watch them, and now I present to you the most important ones.
This was probably the best news of the interview. The Kanye and Jay-Z EP Watch The Throne will now be a full-length album. No word on when it's going to drop, but don't look forward to it actually being done in a day lol.
Gotta love those G.O.O.D. Fridays!
Okay, so go ahead and skip to 1:55 on this video to hear where Kanye says he decided about a week ago that he'd become the best rapper of all-time. It'll never happen, but I'm not gonna down the man for striving to be the best.
Not sure why Lil Wayne was mentioned over Nas when the convo shifted to who he'd have to pass, or why CyHi Da Prince was mentioned in the new artist portion. Lil Wayne is good, but Kanye has been better than him for years now. He should be more focused on passing the likes of Nas, Scarface, and Andre 3000 than Lil Wayne. I like Weezy, but he's not even in the all-time great conversation. As far as CyHi goes, obviously Kanye is gonna hype his artist, but he doesn't even believe that CyHi is gonna be an all-time great. I mean, he isn't even good yet. When CyHi becomes good, then we can talk about him possibly becoming great. Until then, no mas.
And last, but not least, the portion that is probably gonna land Yeezy in some hot water. A little past a minute in he says Michael Jackson is arguably a bigger pop culture figure than Jesus Christ.
Wow. Let that breathe.
I see where he was trying (emphasis on "trying") to go with that, but it even got a rise out of me when he said it. Kanye has GOT to know better than to say some shit like that, because with all the thinking he's been doing, he should know people are gonna tweak it and say "Kanye said Michael Jackson was bigger than Jesus." That's not exactly what he said, but it's close enough to possibly get him in trouble.
Welp, if this becomes the big story of next week, remember you were warned.

Random News Shit
This just seems so random to me. I didn't even know he was going to court or anything. I guess the judge wasn't a fan either lol.
Anyway, I saw an ad the other day that said Gucci Mane's new album was dropping "DecemBURRR 8th," and I'm wondering if that's still gonna stand with his new situation?? I'm sure it will since radio will now probably act like that bullshit song he has with Usher is hot and start playing it in his "honor." I'm also sure the Hip-Hop community is gonna rally around him and act like they actually like him, but oh well that's just how shit goes these days. The game is more politics than truth.
2) 'This Is It' Grosses Over $200 Million Worldwide In 2 Weeks
No one should be surprised by this. Still feels kinda dirty to me, but whatever.
3) 50 Cent Sues WorldStarHipHop.com
I was wondering why they changed the header on their website over the summer, but now we know. This seems petty of 50, but I can't lie, I laughed when he said, "I have lawyers on retainers and I have to pay them so much money anyway, so we'll go back and forth to court until [they] can't afford a subway sandwich. It's already too late for [them]."
Now that's good stuff right there lol.
4) Coolio Replaces DMX In MMA Fight
The other day DMX dropped out of the fight when he found out it wasn't a boxing match and now Coolio is going to be stepping in to take his place. Really, this is a slap in the face to both DMX and they other guy fighting in the bout. Coolio?? Seriously?? Ain't no other broke rappers out there more relevant than Coolio right now?? C'mon son!

Thursday Billboard Update - 11/5/09
The top of the Hot 100 remains influx as we get yet another new #1. Jason Rulo grabs his first #1 with Whatcha Say (2-1), knocking last week's #1, Owl City's Fireflies down to #2. Returning to the top 10 is Jay-Z's Empire State of Mind at #3. The track saw a major boost in sales after Hov and Alicia Keys' performance at the new Yankees Stadium before game 2 of the World Series last week. Hot also saw this week's top 2 debuts land at numbers 9 and 10. Lady GaGa's Bad Romance takes over at #9 and Taylor Swift's Jump Then Fall is at #10.

- Triple C's album Custom, Cars, & Cycles flops hard at #44 with just 12,100 sold. They probably should've just released it as a mixtape.

- Omarion's Get It In with Gucci Mane debuts at #100, and probably won't be around next week.

MJ Movie Opens #1 Grossing $32.5 Million
I kinda want to see it, but at the same time, it just seems dirty to me. They basically just slapped this movie together in an effort to make a profit off of his death. If it was really about Michael and his fans, they would've just played it for free on CBS or some other station. That's just me though, I'm not mad at anyone who went to see it.

Michael Jackson - This Is It
Pretty decent, I like it. If it wasn't Mike I probably wouldn't listen to it again because its not my type of music, but I can fuck with it for the King. Don't be surprised if this debuts in the top 20 on next week's Hot 100.
The "Orchestra Version" is after the jump.
Why isn't this just the final version?? It does sound better, but the extra instruments are so subtle that there's no point of having 2 different versions. Maybe its just me...

MJ Reigns Over The VMAs
Where they get all the gloves from?? Oh, and why?? I have yet to see thing promo on TV so it looks like a waste of time and money to me.
Anyway, Janet's performs will start at 9pm sharp so so much for her opening the show.
Random News Shit: Pop Culture Edition
What's a better way to start off Random News Shit than a story about Ellen DeGeneres becoming a judge on American Idol!
Okay, there's 2 reasons why this is dumb and one reason why its smart. The reason its smart is because Ellen makes so much money off of her talk show that she probably won't demand to be paid as much as the other judges like Paula.
Now, its also dumb because 1) Ellen isn't a musician or songwriter of any sorts that I know of so people will be pissed by her unqualifiedness (yeah that's a new Fiyah word you won't find in the dictionary lol) and 2) she's replacing Paula and not Kara. I liked Paula but the jury is still out on Kara because she's taking speaking time away from Simon and not funny like Ellen. I mean at least Ellen would be saying something funny in the time she's taking from Simon, Kara is just wack.
Good luck to you Ellen.
2) Janet Jackson To Preform MJ Tribute At VMAs Sunday
Oh yeah the VMAs are Sunday, huh? Luckily for them I have no vested interest in watching every snap of the Packers/Bears game so I'll be checking for this. I know its gonna be the shit! Then again, after last year's show, it can't get any worse.
Anyway, I heard that Janet was gonna be opening up the show with the tribute so it should be a good look. Watch everybody talk about how much better the the VMA's MJ tirbutes were than the BET Awards ones even though MTV has had 2 and a half months to prepare lol.
I also heard Jay-Z was gonna be performing Empire State Of Mind with Alicia Keys so look for that too.
3) MJ Movie "This Is It" Trailer To Debuts on VMAs
I didn't even know they were making this movie. Oh well I'll see what its about but I probably won't wanna see it because its still too soon. I'm sorry, I just get that way about people who die. For example, I still haven't seen Soul Men because Bernie Mac is in it and he's been dead for over a year now. Its not you, its me lol.
4) Soulja Boy Wants To Collab With Jay-Z & Eminem
'Nuff said.
5) Uncensored Version Of "Gia" To Be Re-Released
Oooh this is a good look! I loooooved this movie! Then again, what 13 year-old kid in 1998 wouldn't?? HBO was so good to me back then. Awww the good ol' days. Angelina will always have a special place in my heart because of this and that other movie she did back then and showed her boobies in. I think it had Fire in the title, but I'm too lazy to Google it right now lol.
Anyway, I can't wait to see this scene! I mean it won't be as powerful as it would've been to me if it was still '98, but I'd still like to see it. No word on when this is coming out just yet though, but speaking of nudity...
6) Hugh Hefner Files for Divorce
I swear I didn't even know Hef was married lol. They've been separated since 1998! I know old people move slow but this takes it to a whole other level.
Oh well, Hef can do no wrong in my eyes because he's such an OG at this point.

Happy Birthday To The King!
Now, as many of you know this would also be Michael Jackson birthday if he was still with us. He would've been 51 years-old. Its still unbelievable that he's gone. I mean of course no one lives forever, but damn, that's Michael. Still crazy, but happy birthday and R.I.P. to the King.
August 24, 2009
Random News Shit: Current News Edition
1) Michael Jackson's Death Ruled A Homicide
Uh-oh! Its about to get even uglier for that doctor in a quick second. Its a damn shame he had to be black but oh well, tough break nigga.
Anyway, am I the only one who thinks it still feels weird that Michael Jackson is dead?? Seriously though, I know he wasn't doing much this past decade and that he wasn't gonna live forever but damn, its freakin' Michael Jackson! That doctor needs to know he's going down.
2) Michael Beasley Checks Into Rehab
This story is crazy! When I got off work I tuned into 790 The Ticket and heard Dan Lebatard talking to Charles Barkley about young athletes, lots of money, and drug use. Pure craziness.
Even though we don't really know the details of what kinda rehab he's entered just yet, I can say with all honestly I'm not shocked by this story one bit. Did it catch me off guard?? A little bit, but now that I sit back and think am I shocked, I realize I'm totally not. I mean I love M. Beas, but the dude always came off a bit weird to me. Plus, we already knew he's a poor decision maker (most noticeably for his decision to rock those skinny ass braids in the playoffs).
I hope dude gets the help he needs because we're gonna need his ass to have a real shot at anything this year.
On another note, Twitter takes down another and gives us reason #604 why most rappers/athletes/celebs shouldn't have a fuckin' Twitter.
3) Rivers Gets 6-Year Extension Worth $92 Million
Not quite what Eli got, but its still a damn great time to be a QB from the upper-echelon of the 2004 draft class. Well everyone expect J.P. Losman at #22 lol.
4) Vick To Play This Thursday Vs. Jags
From all accounts Mike Vick has looked pretty sharp since joining the Eagles and now we'll finally get to see what he looks like in his Philly gear in a real game. Ironically, the last time we saw him play was against the Eagles. I'm excited!
August 11, 2009
LL Cool J - Billie Jean Dream
I hope he was saying Michael wrote this rap and not Phenomenon the song because that would be more so a slap in the face instead of a compliment lol.
All jokes aside though (the main joke being the song Phenomenon of course), LL ripped this shit. Billie Jean is so timeless that niggas can spit on it now and the shit still sounds fly! Shouts to LL!
