A long rant on where we’ve been…

Lame.

Ok not just lame. I’ve been starting Grad School, Working, @ ASR, watching football, and moving [which I'm still doing]  but enough about this… since you only care about the freshness. I am Sorry, rah mentioned hittin ‘ you with some new music and  We’re in the works of  getting ready to release the Truth here at OSH.

So whats been good?

First the IceMan Chuck Liddell got laid out Saturday night by Rashad Evans, and in case you only heard about it or saw stills here it  is…  and this is exactly what it sounded like.

^^^ Stunted on.

So ASR right what do people have in store for next year.

Some colors for this years 6.0

Nike is bringing their ID technology to their 6.0 line so if your sick of wack colors, make your own. fright now they only have it for the Air Morgans but next year they had 2 more styles up for customizing. That way you can find that exact green to match your new oscar the grouch hat.

New Nike 6.0 Id

oscar the grouch cap

Swagger to pull off this hat is not included.

Oh and mentioning SWAg a week ago when i first came across this song had i posted it then… it would have been the true hotness now… well at least i didn’t forget you and atleast something new finally came from the 2 year old MIA cd.

Jay-z comes with Fire but let us know what you think.

check it after the jump

So ok a video, two images and one song don’t really make up for a weeks absence.

So here is alittle more for you.

1 just like I called Handball is the most popular sport America Never cared about before… According to Carmelo Anthony, Ex- Orangeman, Ex-national Champion, current Denver Nugget, and Current Gold-Medal Basketball player.

According to the Rocky Mountain News and 7 Questions with Carmelo:

2. After taking part in two Olympics with USA Basketball, is there another sport you think you could play?

“I wanna play handball, man. The U.S. needs to get a handball team. I’m pretty sure we can get some guys to go out there and play handball.”

read the rest here

Finally I want to leave you all with alittle food for thought

Some time tomorrow straddling the border of Switzerland and France, they are beginning to fire off the worlds largest Supercollider… in English the possibility of creating a “tiny” black hole that would begin to suck all matter into it is slightly better than winning the lottery… and people still play the lottery. This begs 2 questions. 1. why are all the internet countdown clocks 404′d I don’t want people that can’t set up a simple internet countdown messing with black holes, and 2. If you had 24 hours to live what would you do? I know what Mase says

the edited video

y edit you have 24 hours, heres the actual song….

but seriously. look at this thing. [more photos after the jump]

So sorry its been so long and hopefully this collider works well enough for us to post again later

If not,  its been real.

You have been warned and you have 24 hours.

Peace.

Ready for a Bizzare Ride again?

Yeah neither am I, but Fuc* it.

So though we try to rep everything Urban and Hip hop in the Lower Left Coast, I have a confession, both Rah and I completely slept on last weeks Rock The Bells show. Now I’m not sayin we didn’t talk about it, about goin up north for it, about getting to see Tribe, Meth, red, Jay Electronica, Nas, and the newly reunited Pharcyde, but we SLEPT on it [ok I slept on it it was MK's bithday so Rah had an excuse]. But it has been haunting me all week.

Now I’ve seen alot of shows, but this Hip Hop megafest from what I heard RIPPED it, like Kool Moe Dee on Death Blow. and one of the main reasons was the Pharcyde. Now its no small feat to get Tribe on the same stage again, especially after the disappointing departure of the band after the Love Movement, so to commemorate and educate I would liike to take some time today and show you just how influential a few of this years bands have really been.

I guess since I started with Tribe I should continue with them, Q-Tip, Phife, and Ali Shaheed Muhammad
[oh and sometimes Jarobe] have laid the foundation and beats down for some of Hip Hop’s Finest.

Let me bring up a Senarios where two groups, Tribe and LONS [Leaders Of the New School] teamed up to produce one of the biggest songs ever. If you look close you may even notice the “dungeon dragon.”

or check the unreleased version here

and even though Scenario is the jump off most recently you may have heard tribe beats here with Lil’ Wayne

The tribe aren’t the only band reuniting though that has laid foundation, the Pharcyde deserves some love . The West Coast version of the Tribe and another early Hip Hop group, the Pharcyde brought fun and teenage angst to a main stream, and if you don’t believe me, F Ya Mamma.

but if you don’t believe that they made an impact check this

hmm sound familiar

Think about it, and remember to respect the past.

I got sh!t to do though. so

Peace
