October 24, 2013
“I know many are wondering ‘what the hell is Mike Tyson gonna do up here on this stage tonight?’ And you know, frankly, I’m wondering the same thing.”
– Mike Tyson

Here’s the scoop: You can watch the former undisputed heavyweight boxing champion, main event on pay TV again soon; as his one-man stage show “Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth” will broadcast on Home Box Office (HBO) Saturday, November 16, 2013, at 8PM EST.

Ohio State Marching Band – Michael Jackson Tribute (Video)
October 22, 2013
You need to watch the Ohio State Buckeye’s Marching Band’s Michael Jackson Tribute. The music was on par for a Division 1 school’s marching band, but the choreography sent this performance over the top. Guaranteed you’ll be done when they form the MJ silhouette… and make it moonwalk! Wowww!
Watch the whole thing though. The “Man In The Mirror” performance featuring the Louisiana State University gospel choir is touching.
BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge: “Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground)” With Justin Timberlake (Video)
September 26, 2013
Justin Timberlake covers the Jacksons’ “Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground)” in the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge. As Michael Jackson is the King of Pop, an icon like Justin – who’d be heir to that throne – should rock a Jackson hit whenever opportunity presents itself.

Comedy: Big Booty Bongos (Video) [NSFW]
September 24, 2013
Jorge Perez Gonzalez is my new hero! He is literally beating that azz like a drum! Knowing that musicians get to some level of status and get azz as a result, here’s a tongue in cheek video of a percussionist who “started from the bottom”… now it’s here. Watching this a couple more times, you know for research, I chuckled less and started asking questions: Is visualizing something like this where drummers came up with ‘hitting the skins’ when they play? Did that leak into the hood as vernacular? How in the hell did he ask these honeyz to be his ‘instruments’? What do they look like in the face? Was the post-performance lotion rubdown (for real, watch to the end) part of the ‘payment’?
Yeah, you MUST watch… just NOT at work (NSFW). Too much to explain if the boss walks by.

Contestant Lillie McCloud Stuns ‘X-Factor’ Judges And Brings Kelly Rowland To Tears (Video)
September 17, 2013
TV talent shows aren’t our usual fare on here. They seem to thrive on celebrating everything BUT talent (including Simon’s scorn and scowl). Moreover, I cannot claim any expertise in contemporary gospel music AND it may even be a bit blasphemous to say this BUT… SHIIIIID! Lillie McCloud can GET IT! And she got chops, too?! Watch this clip floating around the Interwebs showing Lillie rock that CeCe Winans song “Allabaster Box.” Age ain’t nothing but a number. And if you got her number, you are a lucky sonuva…

September 9, 2013
Soul Brother #1. Pete Rock. Camp Lo. Geechi Suede. Sonny Cheeba. Heather B hosting the visiting team… and they perform “Clean Getaway” LIVE y’all. This is one of many from their FREE “80 Blocks From Tiffany’s Pt II” mixtape download. There’s some good talk on there, too. Beef rumor right from the start into respect talk (for Large Pro, DMC of Run-DMC, Kendrick Lamar for his “Control” verse)… then the performance… then after the performance, you get Pete Rock’s top 3 producers (BONUS)!
They were on Sirius with Tony Touch pushing the latest “80 Blocks” earlier… and we posted that (earlier). They dropped verbal jewels then, too!

Toni Braxton Gives an ‘Assed Out’ Performance Following Her Major Wardrobe Malfunction (Video)
August 20, 2013
Pop quiz: Toni Braxton comes out for a performance in a super sexy slinky number looking extra hot… giving an extra hot performance… then you see a flash of that azz. Wow! Then, you see it again and again… What do you do? WHAT DO YOU DO???
Mannnn, you enjoy the show!
Now, wardrobe malfunction aside, it was a great show. You see that the New Jersey faithful got an eyeful of Toni from every beautiful side (whew) right from the start of this clip… but later, you see a gentleman fan offering his nice jacket to cover Toni’s way better than ‘nice’ posterior (after stage staff tried a ‘quick fix’). Just watch the whole thing…
Technology: Carbon Fiber Jet Wing Lets ‘Jetman’ Fly In Formation With a Boeing B-17 Bomber (Video)
August 16, 2013
DaVinci. The Wright Brothers. And now…‘Jetman’ Yves Rossy shows us that man was meant to fly… all it takes is a dream, the vision, relentless work at design, and awesome tech! Check out what, in effect, is one giant step closer to pure human flight. The tech is his Carbon Fiber Jet Wing; and it is AMAZING!
And if you think the view from the ground during one of Yves’ flights is impressive, think about what the guys flying the planes are witnessing (like ‘how is he doing that without a plane?’).
Check out the incredible footage above! Shout out to my cousin Joe (love you man!) for shooting me the Wired piece on this.
