THEY TOTALLY THREW ME OFF WHICH THIS TRAILER, I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THEY WERE GOING TO MAKE A SECOND ONE AND DEFINITELY NOT THIS SOON. BUT NONETHELESS THEY ARE, IT WILL BE DROPPING IN NOVEMBER OF THIS YEAR. SO WHO IS GOING TO COP THIS ONE? YOU GETTING IT ON PS3 OR XBOX? EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE MODERN WARFARE 3 AND BATTLEFIELD, NOW WE GOT EVEN MORE WITH BLACK OPS 2. HOPEFULLY THEY FIXED A LOT OF THE THINGS THAT WERE WRONG WITH THE ORIGINAL. BUT HERE IS THE SECOND OFFICIAL TRAILER FOR IT. LET ME KNOW IF YALL LIKE OR DON'T LIKE.
NIKE LEBRON 9 ELITE P.S.?
So today I'm going to post a couple different kicks up cus i am a sneaker head more specifically nike head. But anyway April 28th(i believe) we had the Lebron 9 elite Home and Away to drop. Both were $250 at your local nike dealer. I want your take on them. Did you or Will you spend $250 on em? Did you stand in line as if they were Jays? Me personally i really like them especially the white ones, but i was not about to spend $250 dollars on them. They are not that serious to have. But If you own a pair what do you think?
SO I WAKE UP THIS MORNING AND IM CHECKING OUT THE NEWS, OF COARSE TODAY IS SATURDAY, THE DAY MAYWEATHER FIGHTS COTTO, AND THEY ARE SAYING THAT MAYWEATHER IS GUARANTEED $32 MILLION JUST FOR THE FIGHT AND EVEN MORE FROM PAY PER VIEW PROFITS.

YUNG"56"POLO
XBOX 360 OR PS3?
WHICH ONE DO YOU TAKE? ME PERSONALLY I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A PLAYSTATION USER SO THATS WHO I GO WITH. I DON'T LIKE THE HUGE AND COMPLEX CONTROLLER OF THE XBOX. AND HOW THE ONLINE FEATURES YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR. WITH PS3 I HAVE ALL THE FEATURES SUCH AS INTERNET, VUDU OR NETFLIX, PS3 WORLD, AND A BLU-RAY PLAYER. SO WHO DO YOU GOT?
WHO WILL GET THE RING THIS YEAR?
I DON'T LIKE THIS!!!
So here is the new G.O.O.D MUSIC DROP featuring the young chicago native Chief Keef, Kanye West, Pusha T, Jadakiss, and Big Sean, leave your comments on wat you think about it
SAMSUNG GALAXY S III
So if you didn't know i am sort of a tech-nut lol, I'm always into the newest of everything especially technology. So yesterday i was excited to see that samsung was unveiling their flagship device, the Samsung Galaxy S III. They streamed a live feed from London,England where they were revealing the new device. So as I'm watching, at face value the phone looks amazing and the features thats Samsung has incorporated into it are along the lines of the things Apple are doing with all of their devices.
Here are the important specs.
Here are the important specs.
- 1.4Ghz Quad-core processor
- 4.8 inch SUPER-AMO-LED HD display
- 8-megapixel camera with 1080p HD video recording
- 1GB of RAM
- S-Voice
- Eye-Tracking
So let me start off by saying the phone is nice and is far ahead of the phone game compared to its counterparts. I like the S-Voice feature on it. This is basically the iPhones' Siri's twin sister, who is a little bit smarter and better at everything than Siri. The phone S-Voice even works with waking the phone up when the screen cuts off. All you have to say is one of the selected phrases such as "Hello Samsung" and the phone automatically turns the screen on. As well as launching apps and checking weather without actually going into the phone and clicking on the app.
Next you have the Smart-Stay aka the eye-tracker, which basically tracks your eye movements to keep the phone screen on while your looking at a webpage or reading a book on your phone instead of it cutting off from not touching the screen.
Those are the features that stand out to me compared to the rest of the market. Now i hate that the screen is 4.8 inches. To me this is clearly way to big. I don't see myself putting this tablet sized phone in my pocket all day. This is a phone that you keep out at all times because its too big to put in and take out of your pocket and too big for a belt-clip phone case. Thats just my opinion. Also i don't like how cheap the material of the phone is and how it looks. Me personally i like a lil weight to my phone. i like the sleek and sexy design of the blackberry bold 9900. Adding in some metal or something a lil more sturdier would make the phone a lil more attractive but thats just my opinion.
All in all its a nice phone for those upgrading from a lower-end phone who want something to catch every bodies attention but its basically the Galaxy S II just a tad bit updated.

B.o.B Strange Clouds Review
Boom Track 2 "Ray Bands" begins without any delay. This Track is about his signature shades that he likes to wear (Ray-Bans) and how all the ladies like him as if he were the shades. In this track he speaks on how the "groupies" want him now that he is a international superstar and how he is living the life. The beat rides really nice in the car, nice bass for the trunk. Also has a nice breakdown where he sings a little bit, which i like, because i like his diversity to rap,sing,play instruments,and produce. The song also is really nice in headphones, which a lot of songs lack because of low level production. This is one of my fav's on the project.
On Track 3 "So Hard To Breathe" BoB talks about how its hard to breathe with all of the stress of the music game and where he came from all the way til now. He shows that he is very humble and doesn't mind letting you know that he came the bottom as he says "its a long way from beating pots and pans". If you like a pop/hip hop sort of track with great production and use of instruments and beat patterns then you will love this track.
Track 4 "Both of Us" featuring Taylor Swift starts off very nice with her singing the simple but complex hook accompanied by a nice guitar line, saying she wishes she was strong enough to lift both of us instead on just her. This track he talks about how the simple things should matter over worrying about how we look and act as if it matters because we are all in the same boat at the end of the day. Basically the song highlights how everyone is not meant for greatness as it pertains to money,power, and fame and how we should all come together so we all can live life. This one is another one of my favorites, a definite must listen to.
The next song, the First single on the album that was released, "Strange Clouds" features the newly-found skateboarder Lil Wayne. This one is simply that head bobbing,crazy beat in the trunk, and crazy lyrics that we are accustomed to hearing from BoB as well as Lil Wayne. Im not a big fan of the Post-Carter 2 Lil Wayne but he actually did his thing on "Strange Clouds". The team put together a great drop for the first single. Another Fav off the album.
"So Good" Is proving to be one of BoB's breakout songs off the album. I have heard it on a couple of different commercials, which proves that although its a bit commercial it still can be listened to by audiences of all ages and ethnicities. Personally i like the song, its a nice riding around on a summer day with the top back type of song.
"Arena" features Chris Brown and "Tha King" T.I. talks about how BoB is still hearing doing the same thing he has being doing since he started, jus now with a lot more paper to go along with it. BoB's verse are nice as he brings it through-out the entire album. T.I. hops on the beat and gives us what we expect from "Tha King" nothing special in my opinion though. And Chris Brown on the hook doesn't impress me compared to What i have been hearing from him such as on DJ Khaled's "Take It To The Head" and Chris's "Strip". But all in all the track is still nice, if i had to say which track i liked the least, this would be it
"Out Of My Mind" featuring the one and many Nicki Minaj, It is probably exactly what you expect if you was to think of Nicki on a track with anybody, Very different. The title of the song says it all, because on this one they both are out of their minds lyrically in a good way. As i said with Lil Wayne I'm not a big fan of Nicki and her music is not my "cup of tea" per say, but i know that a lot people will really enjoy this one and this will defiantly be one of the songs they shoot a video for.
"Never Let You Go" Featuring Ryan Tedder, "Chandelier" featuring Laurana Mae, and "Circles" are all tracks more so for the "I love when BoB sings more than he raps" type of fans. These particular songs are going to be great songs to mix into the lineup of songs when he goes on tour for the album. Great quality songs to listen to in your headphones and to vibe to.
"Just A Sign" Featuring his long time partner Playboy Tre is one of my favs. The beat is nice as well as the hook. Nice mellow slowed down type of feel to this one. I think a lot of people sleep on Playboy because they really don't know who he is, but in my opinion i like him, his "wordplay" and style of rap i enjoy to hear. They both give you and sit back and chill, smoke or drink something, kind of vibe on this one
BoB finishes up the album with "Castles" featuring Trey Songz and "Where Are You". Don't care to much for the hook on "Castles" but he verse are nice. On "Where Are You" BoB raps against his alter ego bobby ray as he talks in the perspective of a fan feeling like he has let the fame and money get to him and isn't putting out what they are used to hearing. Nice way to end the album.
All in all the album gets a 9 out of 10 in my opinion. The production,Beats,Verses, Features, make this album a must Buy and Listen to. If your a fan of B.o.B then i suggest you go support and cope this one. Even if your not a fan per say i still recommend this to all music lovers, because this is great music. So let me know what you think of my first review and of the album by leaving your comments, i appreciate it
