Digital Diamonds - Delirious

Happy weekend.  To celebrate Saturday, I've got a new hip-hop Voltron group to share with you, Digital Diamonds. This group is comprised of Scoop DeVille, Chuck Inglish, and Jonwayne. Three producers and  zero known emcees is normally an odd combo, but judging from this first track, "its working bro!" (Mexican cook voice).  Regardless of what they're known for, all 3 take a turn on the mic, and hold their own. Chuck Inglish is one of my favorite beatsmiths right now, so I'm looking forward to when he gets to handle production since this track was cooked up by Scoop. The beat is nice, the rhymes are simple, all I need is some lemonade and some sunshine.  You're welcome.

"Let's Not Get Personal Here..."

The worst part about having a day job, besides waking up, is missing out on all my ESPN shows.  I haven't seen PTI or Around the Horn in ages, and don't let me tell you how long its been since I've woken up to back to back to back to back to back Sports Centers.  Tears are literally forming in m eyes as I type this.  

Today I would have quit the gig and risked divorce if I would have known in advance what was going to happen on First Take.  

First and foremost, I hate First Take, mostly because of the loud and obnoxious duo that host the show, Stephen A. Smith and Skip Bayless.  I'd rather watch soccer or NASCAR, than see these two know-nothings scream and rant for an hour.

Finally, someone put Skip Bayless in his place and took him down a peg or two.  Seattle Seahawks' defensive back Richard Sherman laid into Bayless the old country way.  It was like Sherman had been holding that in for years and finally got to release it.  Like the part in The Color Purple when Celie finally lets Mister have it (anyone...anyone?).  Sherman basically told Skip that he sucks at life, in not so many words, well in basically those words.  Now if only someone will tell Stephen A. about himself.  I guess just watch the clip.  You're welcome.

Hangover 3 Trailer

Uh oh.  All you so-called "comedy purists" can simmer down, because no matter how much you say this will be the same as the first two movies (and it probably will be), your 10 bucks will be thrown in the hundreds of millions of dollars this movie makes on Memorial Day weekend.  It will definitely get my money.  Probably not theater money (large crowds of over-excited, movie-quoting Caucasian frat boys frighten me), but rather OnDemand or RedBox money.  Check out the trailer.  You're welcome.

Double Door...May 9th...Anyone?

L.I.A. Files: TQ - Daily

L.I.A. = Life Imitating Art.  Lately it seems like I just can't get right.  Luck has not been on my side, and everything I do or encounters seems like a test.  If wanted to take more tests, I would have went to grad school.  I'm not trippin' though, everything happens for a reason, but so far in 2013, it seems like my life is imitating this TQ cut from back in the day.  Speaking of TQ, where's he at?  He might owe me money.  You're welcome.

PSY ft. 2 Chainz & Tyga – Gangnam Style (remix) (prod. Diplo)

Speechless...was this really necessary?  There's a download link, if you use it let me know, I'm interested in seeing who I should de-friend.  You're welcome (kinda).

Passion Pit ft. Juicy J. - Constant Conversations (Remix)

Happy Monday people.  To celebrate the weird combination of blizzards and March, I thought I'd share this strange collabo featuring Passion Pit and Juicy J.  Mr. Bands adds a verse to their Constant Conversations track, and to tell the truth, it fits in fine.  The song was already kind of artsy and weird, and I think the Juicy J addition kind of takes the edge off.  You get a little bit of everything here at CR (yes, I'm on initials status).  You're welcome.
