Maybach Exelero On Sale NOW!

Great ... this particular car be a 1-of-1, huh? Finally, a luxury car that I can afford ... lol!



"Big-bucks enthusiasts annoyed that they're not the only ones at the club with a Veyron can now ensure that they arrive in total exclusivity. That's because the one-off Maybach Exelero, commissioned by Fulda to act as a high-profile demonstrator for its tire line of the same name, is now for sale. The Exelero isn't some delicate flower of a show car. Based on the Maybach 57 and powered by a 700-horsepower version of that car's turbocharged V12, the Exelero reached 218 mph at Nardo. In many ways, Exelero represents what Maybach could have and should have been -- a place where daring styling and incredible performance could merge with extreme luxury to compete with Rolls-Royce and Bentley. Instead, while the marque's sedans clearly get the luxury part of the equation right, in terms of styling, they basically work in anonymity, looking like peculiar old S-Class sedans. There's nothing anonymous about the Exelero, though, and for €5,000,000 (around $7.8 million USD), you can drive the sybaritic supercar that Daimler should have given Maybach all along."

50 Cent: Blood On The Sand - Exclusive PS 3 Video Game Trailer.

 

If the game playing mechanics are as good as the graphics, this nigga got a winner here!

Everything That Glitters Doesn't Even Go Gold!

I know that last week, after just 1 day of sales, I wasn't the only person to hear about the predicted humongous 1st week sales for this project, right?  I couldn't believe the ridiculous shit that I was hearing (700,00?), but a part of me was hoping that G-Unit would do well.  It's a good album yo.  Following right behind Weezy's monster 1st week sales, it would have been another strong showing for Hip Hop in this current doo-doo music market ... that would have been a good thing.  Does "T.O.S." now mean T.otally O.verrated S.ales?  Don't trip, you'll get 'em next time 50!

Before injuries tormented him and his game went to crap, Anfernee "Penny" Hardaway was that nigga! Word in cyberspace is that these 1/2 Cent kicks (a composite of all of his signature sneakers) are set to release in March of 2009. That's cool and all, but you KNOW that I need these early, right? Right.

Swizz Beatz - Where The Cash At? + Grow Up: Hublot Watches.

In this post, I get to kill 2 birds with 1 stone.


I've always liked this song. Shout out to the homie Parris on directing this video.

Grow Up: Hublot Watches


On a sidenote, I will take this opportunity to educate you on Hublot watches. Swizz Beats mentioned them in this song and I know that alot of times rappers (myself included) purposely reference not-so-common things in our songs as a way to really seperate the men from the mice. I don't want my readers/my peoples to get caught out there, ya heard?

Now, Hublot is not your typical high end watch brand because it is a relatively new company. In 1980 Italian watchmaker Carlo Crocco introduced the solid gold Hublot watch and popularized the rubber wristband strap for watches ... premium watches just aint do that back then. So, they've been doing their thing over there for a little while, but they really popped off around 2004 with the introduction of their "Big Bang" and "Bigger Bang" series of watches. When you can find them, a good Hublot can easily go for $20,000 USD and that's without diamonds. The diamond "Big Bang" above will run you around 1 million homie. Now you know. Let's see who raps about this next.

A History Of Violence: "My Orange Box Cutter Makes The World Go ' Round!"




Download: Bushwackass - Caught Up In The Game
If you know AND love this classic mid 1990's Hip Hop gem, please give yourself a gold star. You're cooler than you look! R.I.P. to Bushwackass member B.D. Buggz. Flatbush stand up!


On another note, once upon a time, this was a trusty weapon my man. All you heard was ... "Click, Click!" and it was on. For the petty criminal/up-and-coming hoodlum set, icepicks and hammers were especially popular as well. You didn't wanna ride the A Train to the Broadway Junction with that butter leather on ... Atlantic Avenue/Pacific Street the same thing. More than a few persuasive conversations occured as follows, "Hey, what size are those Jordans homie? Word?  They look like they're MY size!" LOL. Kids sure can be cruel.

Drop Squad Target: Dave Chapelle!



First and foremost, I hope and pray that each of you had a happy and stomach filling 4th of July ... Viva La Barbecue!

Now, I know that I am not alone in wondering exactly what happened to Dave Chappelle @ the peak of his career. I have been a fan of his waaaaaaaaaaaay before he ever graced basic cable with his eponymous show. I still remember his early HBO stand up specials that, in my estimation, may even be BETTER than much of his later work. Anyway, back to the point of this post - what the fuck happened to your man Dave? Was cocaine a hell of a drug for him personally? Was it just old fashioned stress? I mean, pressure does bust pipes homie. I can't call it, but the link below has a conspiracy theory for that ass! I'm talking about Bill Cosby and Farrakhan(along with a few other Black entertaiment and political power players) working together to insure the end of Dave Chappelle's hit Comedy Central show and, in effect, his career as we know it! This conspiracy theory does border on Alex Jones-esque paranoia though. This shit is a little bit over the top for me, but I guess that anything is possible yo. What's next? World domination? Are these "Dark Crusaders" (Seriously, I couldn't make that name up) the Legion Of Black Doom? LOL. I'll let you tell it.

Grow Up: A Chance To Replace The Gas Face?


Photo Courtesy Of: Politico


Do you remember when you could cruise around with your homies and everybody could chip in $2 towards the tank and shit would be fine all night?  Well, it's no secret that those days are behind us ... I might invest in a Cannondale bike ... lol.  

Anyway, the idea behind this website could be a very good one.  Basically, they offer their customers the opportunity to lock in a certain amount of gallons of gas @ a fixed price.  From the website's homepage: "Save money by pre-purchasing gas at today’s prices, then fill up with your MyGallons Card when prices rise. No matter how high prices at the pump will go, the price of the gallons you’ve purchased will be locked-in."  Really?  How legit is this?  Is this just oil-slickery on some company's  part OR has gas gone the way of Virgin Mobile cellphones?

Note To Fellow Rappers:  Let this be a lesson to us all - this is how you handle "rap" beef.  Whether you are of T.I.'s status OR you're just a king in the streets, never legitimize the haters by giving them too much attention ... address them on YOUR time.  Too many niggas get out of character ... you know you aint built like that homeboy.

"DMX was arrested again today in Arizona. He showed up for a court hearing, but had a bench warrant out for his arrest, so they busted him. DMX was busted June 27 after he allegedly tried to buy drugs from an undercover officer. He was also busted on June 23, May 9 and May 7."

Pharrell Says That A Facelift Aint Enough!



NOW (that) he's staking his place with the fashion set, producer Pharrell Williams is smartening up his act - and the first thing to go will be his extensive tattoo collection.

The NERD frontman - who last month played an exclusive set at Harvey Nichols to launch his latest collections - has revealed that he is trying a revolutionary new removal procedure, which involves applying new skin over old body art.

"It's basically like getting a skin graft, but you're not taking skin from your ass or your legs. These guys actually grow the skin for you," he explains. "First you have to give them a sample of your skin, which they then replicate. Once that's been done, they sew it on - and it's seamless."

As for the cost... That's irrelevant, he adds.

"It's going to be pricey, but worth it," he says. "I got fire on my arms! (Pure Comedy) I'm a grown man!"

If I was in L.A., I would pay a crackhead a nice fee to wait on line for me. Either that or wait for some unsuspecting hipster to catch for his pair once he left the store ... lol. The eBay prices for these shits are going to be, in the words of Ashanti, "BANANAS!"

Beautiful.

Hitting Newstands Next Week.


The Recession Is Coming!



Really? Why is this girl on the cover of my King Magazine? Are all of the bad chicks on vacation all Summer? King Magazine - you guys need to establish a better contingency plan for droughts like this.

UPDATE: I stand corrected! Chanta Patterson is bad (meaning good). It's just that, apparently, King Magazine's photo editing staff is bad (meaning terrible) @ picking sexy photos and over photoshopping an image until the woman in it looks like a damn CGI character.
