It’s very hard to see someone when they know you’re looking at them.

I’m either underrated or over-hated.

Kid Cudi feat. Kanye West and Common - ‘Make Her Say’
Despite my feelings towards Cudi, I’m a huge fan of this video and song.

I cannot get enough of this Auto-Tune the News series by The Gregory Brothers.
When I first saw this on Sarah’s blog I kind of doubted how good it could really be. Man was I wrong.
Slaughterhouse - ‘One’
I don’t really mess with rap blog rap (something more commercial plz), but this song is pretty fresh. Also, is Rik Cordero an awful director or does he just have no budget to work with/I have no taste? I don’t think I like 99%* of his videos.
*I just assume there’s one out there that I like, although I can’t think of any
Lolz

When I was younger, I was a huge fan of Keno from Teenage Mutant Nina Turtles 2: Secret of the Ooze. He was a real inspiration to me; I mean, he was just some random Asian kid who was in the right place and the right time and just happen to fall into a brother-type role with the four turtles. I’m pretty sure that the 8-year-old me thought this was the best thing that could ever happen to...

Bryant related a pro-Artest anecdote from the 2008 NBA Finals in which Artest, a spectator at Game 6, entered the showers in the Lakers’ locker room after Boston clinched the championship with a 39-point victory. ‘I was in there by myself,’ Bryant said. ‘He came in there and he said, ‘This is not going to happen to you [again]. I’m going to come in here and...
Men.Style.com: A really interesting interview with...
Men.Style.com: You were there to witness the strange evolution in Michael's appearance. Did you ever step in and saying anything about it?
Quincy Jones: Oh, we talked about it all the time. But he'd come up with, "Man, I promise you I have this disease," and so forth, and "I have a blister on my lungs," and all that kind of b.s. It's hard, because Michael's a Virgo, man—he's very set in his ways. You can't talk him out of it. Chemical peels and all that stuff.
MSC: Did you believe him about the disease?
QJ: I don't believe in any of that bullshit, no. No. Never. I've been around junkies and stuff all my life. I've heard every excuse. It's like smokers—"I only smoke when I drink" and all that stuff. But it's bullshit. You're justifying something that's destructive to your existence. It's crazy. I mean, I came up with Ray Charles, man. You know, nobody gonna pull no wool over my eyes. He did heroin 20 years! Come on. And black coffee and gin for 40 years. But when he called me to come over to see him when he was in the hospital on his way out, man, he had emphysema, hepatitis C, cirrhosis of the liver, and five malignant tumors. Please, man! I've been around this all my life. So it's hard for somebody to pull the wool over my eyes. But when somebody's hell-bent on it, you can't stop 'em.
MSC: But it must've been so disturbing to see Michael's face turn into what it turned into.
QJ: It's ridiculous, man! Chemical peels and all of it. And I don't understand it. But he obviously didn't want to be black.
MSC: Is that what it was?
QJ: Well, what do you think? You see his kids?
MSC: Did you ever discuss it? Did you ever ask, "Michael, don't you want to be a black man?"
QJ: No, no, no, please. That's not the way you do it.

The Cleveland Show - ‘The Pilot’
I haven’t really watched an episode of (the) Family Guy since college, but this Cleveland Show pilot just made me LOL like five times forreal. Cleveland Jr really steals the show!
