 In anticipation of the Air Jordan 7 Retro “Barcelona Days” release which is slated to be tomorrow 25 April, we take A Closer Look at the shoe dedicated to Spain’s involvement with the summer Olympic Games of 1992. The iconic silhouette has been rendered with a relatively playful colorway reminiscent of Barcelona’s seemingly vibrant culture with this idea being mirrored through the use of pop colors on the shoe’s outsole,tongue and heel counter.The upper has been constructed from a combination of light grey suede with an overlay of dark grey leather panelling forming the recognizably peaked design of the overall shoe. The fact that color has been used so sparingly amongst a predominantly grey scale palette suggests a link to the fact that the vibrant society and various cultural phenomena within Spain’s capital can be somewhat hidden at times — reserved for locals and those in the know. This particular rendition of the very shoes Michael Jordan wore throughout the 1992 tournament will be available at select retailers like Packer Shoes, and online at Nike for $190 USD.

How about a laugh for this Friday? I was looking at some of my old post and it seem I used to always make y'all laugh. Let's get back to that. This dude jumped up so happy to be on 'Flex Cam' too bad somebody else had other plans for him. Sun out, guns out.

 The Air Jordan Son of Mars Low is inspired by an iconic lineup of some of Air Jordan’s most famous silhouettes, including the III, IV, V, VI and XX. This colorway features a blue and white palette, with an elephant print midole and blue-splattered Nike Air units as defining elements. The upper is predominantly white, with a navy blue tongue and turquoise accents completing the shoe. Check out more over at Wish Atlanta, with the shoe hitting its shelves soon.

 Tidal Vs. Pandora Vs. Spotify

 Link to story ----- > http://bgr.com/2015/04/21/tidal-vs-pandora-vs-spotify/

" Spotify surged back into the iPad Top 40 download chart on March 31st, right when Tidal’s anti-Spotify invective hit fever peak in American media (...) It looks like Tidal’s attacks on Spotify and Pandora actually managed to increase public awareness of the services"

It's the juicest part of this article, a total fiasco.

I'm confused why Jay-Z and associates didn't pull their music and make it TIDAL exclusive. I'm not saying that would be the right decision (especially from a consumer perspective), but obviously not even the artists were confident in TIDAL.

One of the biggest problems with Tidal is the fact that it was created by millionaires, to make certain content exclusive. They took the common man for an idiot. I'm not paying for your service to listen to insert artist here. I get the point. But I'm not too dumb to realize this is just padding your pockets.
Jay-Z underestimated the intelligence of people without money.


 I also did the little test. Just to prove I know what I'm talking about.

  As you know. We (Team Elite) switched up the cooking this year. For the past two years, we have been doing Fish Fry's. They was cool and people seem to love it. This year we went into another way. We went even more southern. BBQ. Everybody in the south loves a good ole fashion BBQ. We had two this year. We sold out in both of them. The most selling item on the menu was the Ribs with lemon pepper chicken chasing in for the second. It was beat out for first place by about 10 more ribs dinners sold. 

I'm thankful for everybody that came out to each event that we did. As you can see from my IG, I was having too much fun. I have a surprise for y'all. You'll find out later this week what it is.

In the meantime. Enjoy looking at some of the best ribs. I mean the best ribs you will ever eat in your life.

  I was looking thru my 'My Favorite Things' section.  To see what I have already done. I didn't see what I thought I was going to see. It's pretty funny how I got to this. To seeing I never blogged about it.  I was looking for Ugly Betty on Netflix (it's not) after being mad, I went to another one. I just knew it was on Netflix. I swear I seen it. 'Blue Chips'. I type into the search bar, getting happy to see the movie pop up. Only to be sad to see it not appear. They say they have it on DVD, ain't nobody got time for that.

   " You cannot make friends with the rock stars. That's what's important. If you're a rock journalist - first, you will never get paid much. But you will get free records from the record company. And they'll buy you drinks, you'll meet girls, they'll try to fly you places for free, offer you drugs... I know. It sounds great. But they are not your friends. These are people who want you to write sanctimonious stories about the genius of the rock stars, and they will ruin rock and roll and strangle everything we love about it."- Lester Bangs ‪#‎AlmostFamous‬.

Back when I was a journalist, I held this scene in my highest regards. It's the realest thing ever. Even as a retired journalist I still do. A musician (I use that loosely) reminded me this week of why I retried (interviewing people is like pulling teeth.). I was also reminded of how much pull I still have. Good lord, talk about shutting somebody down. S/o to XXL,Vogue, NYLON,Karen Civil, Complex, etc.‪#‎WeAintNothingToFuckWith‬ ‪#‎journaliststicktogether‬

I don't know about you. I like to listen to music when I'm getting ready to leave the house. Doesn't matter where I'm going. It can be to the store to the park or simply to the trash can. Okay, maybe not the trash can part. That would be odd. I did have a period where I would walk around the house to the trash can (on the side of the house) with the music blasting. I had my reasons.

 For the latest episode of ESPN’s wildly popular series 30 for 30, the sports conglomerate examines the life of John Paul “Sonny” Vaccaro, one of the most polarizing and influential figures in basketball recruiting and sports culture. Vaccaro, a former employee of Nike, adidas and Reebok, is known to many as a man who epitomizes everything wrong with college basketball, but to his players, from Jordan to LeBron, he is a mentor and father figure. From sports to fashion, there’s no telling where we would be if it wasn’t for Vaccaro’s unique vision.

“Sole Man” will make its prime-time television debut on Thursday, April 16, at 9pm EST. (the above clip is just a preview)
