maybe they didn't get the memo...

I caught wind of this brand called N4E1 (not for everyone) and I thought this shirt was cute...



kinda cool right?! i thought so...cause ya know i figure; if you're gonna pop your collar...you should do it in style and say 

but i checked some of their new stuff and i saw a clever but highly outdated shirt



kinda clever to have all the foreign currency and stock exchange symbols on there but...all over prints are sooooo 2003...if it was 2003 it would be the hottest thing ever...but its not.

psycho T



So he's a picture of NCAA player of the year Tyler Hansboro jumping off of the balcony of his frat house into a "shallow above ground pool."  Some have been wondering what he was thinking seeing that he would risk his "basketball career" by hurting himself pulling this "silly stunt.  Well its simple!  Tyler Hansboro is no "ghetto kid looking for a way out of the hood."  He has the luxury of enjoying his college experience because he doesn't have to make a living with his body.  He is in no rush to enter the NBA and make money.  His dad's an orthopedic surgeon and his moms a former pageant queen.  When he graduates next year; he's have a DEGREE from NORTH CAROLINA (in communication but none the less).  That means...he's gonna be making 6 figures whether he gets drafted into the NBA or not.  So he might not make millions; he doesn't need them...he already has them so let the man enjoy his life.  Plus this is the same kind of kamikaze that everyone love when he's on the court...so we shouldn't expect anything less of him in the rest of his life.  all I know is I WOULD HATE TO BE HIS GIRLFRIEND...if he has the same recklessness and aggression with his undermuscle.  From what i heard, his personal best is 53 seconds and he's been trying to beat it for sometime now...just seems like a messy situation

WARNING: Yet ANOTHER good girl gone bad!





YUP! MICHELLE WILLIAM'S TURNED TO THE DARK SIDE TOO and so far, all the chicks we've known to cross over have taken their careers to a new height and I'm REALLY hoping that it does something for MS. WILLIAMS' career as we know it. Her new album "Unexpected" is EXPECTED to drop on August the 12th of 2008 featuring her new single "We Break the Dawn" and I don't think she's breakin' it for Jesus this time around either. The song isn't that GREAT OR "that" bad BUT she's def. trying to reach out to a completely diff. crowd [like her first solo attempt] with the electronic/techno feel. So IN SUMMATION, she's on her Chris Brown steeze by trying to reach out to the "majority" clubs AND on her Kelly Rowland by writing a song about the sunrise and daylight and what not...let's just hope this one goes over better than THAT shit.



THAT'S RIGHT CHELLE'S...POSE FOR THE LAWD!

SPEAKING of Ms. Kelly, she digitally re-released her album "Ms. Kelly: Diva Deluxe"
and that's all I have to say about that.

Either way way...way to rep ILLInoise Em Dub.
