Bettie Page Dead At 85




Bettie Page was a former American model who became famous in the 1950s for her fetish modeling and pin-up photos. She was also one of the earliest Playmates of the Month for Playboy magazine.


Los Angeles, December 11, 2008 – Bettie Page, sweet-smiling legendary 1950s pin-up queen with the killer curves and coal-black bangs, died today of pneumonia at a Los Angeles area hospital. She was 85 years old. She suffered a heart attack one week ago and never regained consciousness. Her popularity as an underground, guilty pleasures phenomenon has continued to soar despite the fact that the reclusive Page disappeared almost a half century ago, leading many to believe that one of the most photographed individuals of the 20th century was already dead.

Brooklyn We Go Hard Video....



Evan Roth directed the new video of Jay-Z ft. Santogold - Brooklyn We Go Hard which is the new single off The Notorious Soundtrack.


Last week I was contacted to make a video for a new Kanye West produced Jay-Z song for RED & the Global Fund to Fight AIDS in Africa. It launched today (WorldAIDS Day) at red.msn.com. And while I’m happy to be able to help the cause I’m also more than a little bit excited about getting a chance to make something for the likes of Jay-Z and Kanye. I’ve been turning down client requests to use Typographic Illustration for 5 years in hopes that one day the phone would ring and it would be Hova.

Lebron James " Chalk " Commercial




This holiday weekend Nike debut its latest television commercial, Chalk, which features basketball star LeBron James. The 60-second commercial draws its inspiration from LeBrons pre-game ritual of tossing talcum powder into the air at the scorers table before each home and away game. The pre-game ritual of LeBron has become a symbol of the ultimate Just Do It moment.

The ad campaign, produced in cooperation with Portland, Oregon-based advertising agency Wieden+Kennedy is part of Nike's marketing and communication support for LeBrons latest signature sneaker the Zoom LeBron VI. The campaign will also be featured on nikebasketball.com.

In addition to LeBron James, the commercial also features cameo appearances by basketball players Greg Oden, LaMarcus Aldridge, Brandon Roy, Daniel Gibson and platinum recording hip-hop artist Lil Weezy.

Plaxico Burress = Chedda Bob

Photobucket

New York Giant(IDIOT) Plaxico Burress manages to shot himself at a nightclub in NYC two days before a game against the Washington Redskins. I ask myself.... What the hell is wrong with these athletes? Why do they consistently manage to put themselves and their careers in jeopardy? I can't manage to grasp the understanding of being in a club two days before a game and having your gun on you(If you need to take a gun why go). On top of having it on you, not having a legal permit to carry one. Did he not know that New York City stiffened their gun laws making a mandatory three and a half years prison sentence for being busted for illegal possession of a firearm within the city. On top of all that madness he went out of his way to cover it up. Chedda Bob(Plaxico Burress) is in for a looooooong dealing with the law for his acting a fool. Whatever, those are just my thoughts that i had to air out. It could have been worse but thank god he didn't cause any life threatening injuries to himself but he did end his season with the Giants and maybe begin a new one in prison.

As We Grow Up...

It's late right now and I can't sleep. So I'm doing my usual surfing the web reading looking into things I wanna/need to do and such and came across this little two paragraph saying. I've looked it over about three times and I'm came to the conclusion that it's REAL TALK and it hit me like a ton of bricks to my big ass head. I decided to share it to you all because honestly " You live and you LEARN! "

I'm off to bed... Gooodnight... TGIF!



"As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did.

You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back."

"You layin on your balcony with holes in your dreams..."




You probably wondering why I'm posting this song. Well, Jigga used his verse for the Coldplay(Lost) song I posted just below and honestly.... He fucking rips it inside out! He goes hard on the Grammy Family beat produced by his man Kanye West. Pay attention how intricate the man is with his words and if you don't know certain things click the names... YA DIGGGG!!!

By the way.. For the non-listeners, the lyrics are below so read and understand the man now!?!

Inspired By Boesky, got my chariots of fire
Everybody took shots, hit my body up, I'm tired
Build me up break me down to build me up again
They like “Hov we need you back so we can kill ya ass again”
Hov got flow, though he's no BIG and PAC, but he's close
How I’m ‘posed to win? When they got me fighting ghost…

Same sword they knight you, they gon’ goodnight you with
Shit, that's only half If they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't beleive me, ask Micheal
See Martin, See Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas, see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide it's a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified
Media meddles, niggas sue you, you settle
Every step you take, they remind you: YOU GHETTO
So it's tough being Bobby Brown
To be Bobby then, you gotta be Bobby now
Now the QUESTION IS, "Is to have had and lost better than not having at all?"
Mannn....

Everybody wanna be the king then shots ring
You layin on your balcony with holes in your dream
Or you Macolm X'd out, get distracted by screams
Everybody get your hands out my jeans!
Everybody look at you strange, say you changed
Uhh! Like you work that hard to stay the same
Uhh! Game stays the same, the name changes
So it's best for those to not overdose on being famous
Most kings get driven so insane
That they try to hit the same vein that Kurt Cobain did
No dangers, so shameless
Invited to the inter sanctum of your chambers
Low chained'em as the enemies approach
So raise ya draw bridge and drown'em in the moat
And the spirit I'm evokin
*Mumbles* Hold on …

Everybody screamin they want the old Hov
But the new improved Hov hits like Albert Pujols
Everybody wanna hear me talk that money like Phil Rizzuto
But my mind is on Pluto
Bills that I fold, I now invest on
Tryna find some loopholes in the I.R.S
As where I used to have a few hoes I am just
Concentratin on makin a new Hov through sex
I've awaken just in time to school those putos
Tryna follow in my shoes with jewels froze
Better adhere to this tax 'fore you go
Broke, spendin more than you've accured on silly baguettes
I know silly begets silly, you'll learn on your own
At least my conscience is clear, I'm no longer steering you wrong
Ain't nothing wrong with baguettes after you get home
Take care of your home, you can go back and ***Ugh!***

I'm getting courted by the bosses,
The Edgars and Doug Morris-es-es
Jimmy I's and Lyors-es its
Gotta be more than the choruses
they respecting my mind now
Just a matter of time now
OPERATION: Takeover Corporate
Makeover offices-es-es then takeover all of it
Please may these words be recorded
To serve as testimony that I saw it all before
came to fruition, sort of a premonition
Uncontrollable, hustler's ambition
Alias, superstition, like Stevie
The writings on the wall, like my lady, right B.B
Saw it all before some of yall thought I was crazy maybe
Like a fox I'm cagey, Ah Ah!
The more successful, the more stressful
The more and more I transform to Gordon Gekko
In the race to a billion got my face to the ceiling
Got my knees on the floor please lord forgive him
Has he lost his religion, is the greed gon' get him?
He's having heaven on earth, will his wings still fit him?
I got the forbes on my living room floor
And I'm still talkin to the poor, fucka I want more
"Times' Most Influential" was impressive
'Specially since, I wasnt in the artist section
Had me with the builders and the titans
Had me right with Rupie Murdoch
Billionaire boys and some dudes you never heard of
Word up on Madison Ave, is I'm a cash cow
Word downn on wall street homie, you get the cash out
IPO Hov no need for reverse merger
the boy's money talk no need to converse further
The baby blue Maybach like I own Gerber
Ballroom I'm liftin ya skirt up
Da Corporate Takeover. . . .

The Late Greats....

As I sit here and ponder what I wanna post I think about some of the influential artist that have past and how great their music was and still is. Tupac, Biggie, Big L and Big Pun came to mind right away. Even ten years later I can relate to the lyrics. It's unbelievable that the good ones had to die so young! Life! Crazy ain't it..... Well, here are some of my favorites from the LATE GREAT artist of my time.



Tupac - Keep Your Head Up



"And when he tells you you ain't nuttin don't believe him
And if he can't learn to love you you should leave him"



Notorious B.I.G - Everyday Struggle



"I don't wanna live no' mo'
Sometimes I hear death knocking at my front door
I'm living everyday like a hustle
Another drug to juggle, another day another struggle..."



Big L - Put It On



"I drink Moet not Beck's beer, I stay dressed in slick gear
Peace to my homies in the gangsta lean, I see you when I get there"



Big Pun - Super Lyrical



"Just call me baby Jesus cuz lately niggaz be praisin' me
Just for the way I blaze to be crazily, tape to CD lasery
It pays to be amazingly flavery
Daaaaze'em to my rhymes that basically hypnotize you occasionally"

Evolution 101 With Mr. West

The Cool Kids on Fashion



These dudes are the shit! And honestly what they are saying is sooooo true. Like what Andy Warhol said " Art Is Anything You Can Get Away With. "

Today I went over to my homie Taterz blog to check out if she had written anything new. She did! And I was amazed by it too(always am by the way). This girl has an incredible talent in putting words together. It just so happens I can relate to this poem, passage or free writing she posted and I wanted to share with my fellow readers. Its called ' I Wonder ' and I hope you enjoy it.

I wonder...

If our love were to end today, Love, how will you remember me?
Will you recall the perfect moments of pure, genuine happiness we made with our limbs hopelessly intertwined?
Will you think back fondly on the lazy afternoons we thought were wasted, but now are imprinted in my mind like photographs, beautifully serene and flawless?
Will you remember the comfort we shared, like a rare delectable fruit whose sweet juices we enjoyed until they ran out?
Or will the pain of the arguments overtake those memories, morphing my image in your brain from the girl you once loved into an evil, nasty bitch - err, witch?
I fear that you will remember my hands not by their soft touch but by the image of them slamming the door between us.
I know that the sting of headaches and heartbreaks is easier to remember than the light, passing smiles we shared.
It's simple: love's caresses fade, while fights leave lasting scars.
But try, Love, I beg you to try.
Let's, you and I, decide what memories we make, and what we will take with us the day our love is over.

Close your eyes and try to remember the taste of my neck in the morning.
Retrace the shape of my lips and my breast and my hip over and over with your hands today,
So years from now you can draw them from memory if you had to.
Record the fingers that run lightly over your scruffy face before you fall asleep, Love.
Remember the warmth of my embrace and the trace of perfume as you lay your head on my chest,
And how your arms wrap all the way around when you hold me.
(Sometimes you hold me so tightly, I'm convinced it's because you want to make sure I'm there when you wake)
Try, make mental notes, to remember me by my kiss and my song,.
More so than by my temper or my angry cries that only yearned to be loved by you too.
I beg you, like I've never wanted anything more.

For when our love is gone, Love, nothing will hurt more than being hated.
Or worse, discarded, like a faded picture, into the abyss of old memories.
