Video: Mikhail Prokhorov announces that the Nets are no longer seeking a trade for Carmelo Anthony
I missed this when it happened but my man at work told me about it yesterday and then YN reminded me when I was just on his site checking some stuff out. Comedy! Don’t dude remind you of that Direct TV Russian Oligarch parody? “Opulence, I has it!”

New Music: Gilbere Forte – Born In ’87
Lead-off record to Gilbere Forte‘s forthcoming mixtape entitled, EYES of VERITAS due at the end of this month. I’ve featured this kid before and f-cks with him hard (especially if he’s calling n-ggaz out! I keed and pause too, just in case…) Check out why I added that parenthetical after-thought though:
“As you guys know Bere, has been making alot of noise in the last year and some change, inspite of all the industry chatter and questions….and he hasn’t been vocal about any of it until now. This is “Born In ’87”.”

Music Video: Dean and Ravo – End of the Week
I’ve featured these guys before but here goes the second video for other track, “End of the Week” they’ve released in advance of their soon-come A to B mixtape. I think they’re gonna go the same way Chiddy Bang and Mike Posner did. Mark my words on this one – watch! And with this track’s theme so prominent and appropriate timing-wise, let the posting of weekend party-style tracks commence! (sidebar: what is homegirl doing to that dog at the end of the video??)
Hit the jump for the MP3 download.

Introducing New Artist Tosin: the Potion 2 Mixtape
“Music for the Hood & the Suburbs!“??
That’s what the subject line to the email this came in said and I think it might be right on the money!
Knew nothing about dude – the mixtape got sent to me out of the blue. Despite the horribly amateurish artwork, I gave it a shot just ‘cos he sent an easy-to-listen-to bandcamp link (I told y’all SOUNDCLOUD or BANDCAMP is the way to go – those of y’all still sending mediafire and zshare links to my gmail STAY losing!) and was pleasantly surprised when I ended up kind of diggin’ it. I LOVE track #7, “Southern Illinois University Edwardsville” – always gonna respect odes to college life. Gotta rep that ‘Different’ world view – it can’t always be about the ‘hood!
All son has to do now is it upgrade from the sub-‘hood status artwork. C’mon son, you went to college: you gotta know someone who’s handy around photoshop?? Anyway, check it out and tell me what y’all think:
