Sports Arena / NBA Playoffs!

« on: April 28, 2012, 04:28:20 AM »

The NBA playoffs are here, OKC has been on fire all season, KD leading Kobe in scoring. The bulls got all around top spot, mostly without the league MVP D. Rose, but they have a deep team. LBJ is still searching for a ring. The Mavs look tired, but u can't count Nowitzki out. The Spurs have been impressive all season long. I thought it would be exciting to see who you guys think will take it home this year.

Hot Traxxx / Skee-Lo Wished He Was a Little Bit Taller. Then He Promptly Retired

« on: February 06, 2012, 07:18:00 PM »

Who else ever wondered what happened to dude? i mean he made a cla**ic record and then was never heard of again... well i searched and stumbled across an article on the LA Times, it turns out the man got screwed by his label, got disillusioned and gave up music:

“I retired five months after it was released,” Skee-Lo says, drinking coffee at the Denny’s on Crenshaw and 37th, a few blocks from the home he shares with his wife and two children. “Not only did my label [Sunshine] take credit for producing ‘I Wish,’ they took all the profits. So I refused to shoot any more videos, promote or record music. I’m not their slave. I wasn’t working for free.”

Here is the link though... http://blogs.laweekly.com/westcoastsound/2012/01/skee-lo_i_wish_i_was_a_little_bit_taller.php

Hot Traxxx / 2010 Rap up - Skillz

« on: January 03, 2011, 04:46:44 AM »

The new year never feels complete without the Rap Up king Skillz running back the past year’s events. “2010 Rap Up” sees Skillz recapping the year of earthquakes, oil spill, and rap feuds. He caps it with a shot at wannabes: “I hear a lot of wrap-ups being made for real. Um, he’s alright but he’s not real.”
