KOBE vs. "the king"




Okay let me start off by saying I'm not a hater, I really like Lebron just not over Kobe. So I've been reading a lot of articles on ESPN regarding how Lebron is the clear cut MVP. They use stat's in saying he's the MVP, yea king crab is putting up some big numbers. Kobe is having a good season, shooting we'll coming up big with big shots @ ends of games, as well is Lebron. But how come when come isn't putting up big numbers they use stats as a bar to measure the MVP candidates, but when he is they use the whole make your team better and have a good record? It just doesn't make any sense to me. It's a bit annoying to be honest because since Kobe isn't built like a tank like LEBRON he sucks now? its how people make it seem like kobe's good but not Lebron good!! lol like come on...don't you think the dude should win a Ring before you say he's the greatest and the KING, the Chosen one , or what ever fluff you like to call him. Don't get me wrong he's a great player but damn he hasn't even won a ring yet!! what if he turns out to be like Garnet's wack ass and doesn't win shit. until his 35th year in the league? yea he's good. But the people there putting him with is like NBA great.. because they won Championships not just a good player who hasn't won shit. Im getting off topic a bit but you get what im saying. like people need to chill with the whole Lebron being the best..I know some one retard from ESPN is gonna compare to Lebron to MJ, according to them KOBE shouldn't even be in the mix.. smh just a RANT cuz my God ESPN is stupid and so biased they forget there not talking with there Boys @ the barber shop.. What ever.. wooo saww. lol the funny thing is i like Lebron but damn he is being sucked off beyond believe..im out and full of that haterade lol LONG LIVE THE KING!!

Tech Corner: By Olypiakos swingman Josh Childress


"Whats up everyone? If you guys remember, Last month in the tech corner I'd just returned from Greece and had surgery to repair a tear in my abdomen. For the last few weeks, I've been back home in California rehabbing my injury, trying to get healthy so I can go back over to Athens and get back on the court.

This was the first time I've ever had surgery, and I was probably more worried about it than I should have been. It took me about two weeks to sort of break through the soreness and then re-train the muscles on my left side in my abs and hips and glutes. I'm still not 100 percent, and things on my left side are still slower than on my right side, but I'm definitely feeling better.

When I say im rehabbing all the time, I'm not Joking. I wake up, work out for about three hours, eat lunch and rest, then go for another couple of hours. And after all that I'm so tired that I don't even want to do anything else. I'm heading back next week and I'm looking forward to getting back with the team.

While I've been gone, I haven't been able to link up my schedule to watch any of our games from back in Athens online, because the games there are at night, which is crazy early in the morning in Cali. But I talk to guys on the team pretty much every day, just to see how things are going and stuff. Coaches and guys hit me up on the BlackBerry all the time.

Speaking of BlackBerry, I recently got this blackberry bolt, and I like how it feels and all the stuff with it, but it drops calls like crazy, so I'm not not really feeling it. That's the only phone I've been using because it's a world phone, and I couldn't use my fring program on my Nokia.

That's it for now. Gotta go work out and get ready to head back to Greece. Talk to you guys next month... "



I wanted to do this like two months ago when I was reading my slam magazine, but I forgot. So when I got the issue today with D-WADE on the cover I decided to post it after I was done reading it.
The picture isn't the original from the magazine I couldn't find it so I made one.

Japanese Cartoon : Crowd Participation




DL HERE

VIA Myspace


Hello there my fellow human beings. Percival Fats here with updates and news! Alright, so lets just get on with it then.

Firstly new music! A new song has been added to the player. This one is entitled “Crowd Participation” and was one of the final songs recorded for “In The Jaws Of The Lords Of Death.” Touches on the power of mass demonstration. Heavy tune. One of my personal favorites.

Second. A website is in the works. ALLSABOTAGE.com should be online in the coming weeks. Its promised to be chocked full of tasty bits and pieces of Japanese Cartoon skullduggery. Stay Tuned.

Thirdly, The music video for “ARMY” is 99.9% complete and is scheduled to debut exclusively at ALLSABOTAGE.com.

Fourthly, the music video for the JC’s 1st single “Heirplanes” is in the late planning stages and guarantees to be quite the engaging cinematic experience.

Fifthly, I have been on a diet of Black Sabbath and Pocky and its everything you never thought it would be.

Sixthly, As promised a limited number of Japanese Cartoon T-shirts have been put to the presses and shall be available shortly. The t-shirts were done in collaboration with Boss Lupe’s (JC member by default and public pressure) clothing company Trilly & Truly. A plethora of etceteras are in the works for the future betwixt the two. A visual example is in order if I may be so obliging:





"No Shackle, No Sugar. All Sabotage."

KiD CuDi: Light Bulb Moment!!




Story Via MTV:

Despite all the talk of the Internet ruining music, it can provide wonderful opportunities for a young musician. Take Kid Cudi, for instance. His song, "Day 'N' Nite," became popular on MySpace, and that buzz led to an appearance on our list of MCs to Watch in 2009. His music has been featured in commercials, video games and television shows. He landed a guest spot on Kanye West's 808s & Heartbreak as well as a deal with West's record label, G.O.O.D Music — all this thanks to a series of tubes and wires.

However, Cudi's biggest achievement so far may be thanks to some good old-fashioned guerilla marketing. Cudi released a video last week that blended the audio from his song "Sky Might Fall" with the trailer from "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen." Cudi said the idea for the trailer — which has been featured on many blogs and had some wondering about its authenticity — came to him while he was checking out the movie's sneak peek online with his iTunes playing in the background.

"I'm looking at the trailer, and I was like, 'Wow, this is dope,' but then 'Sky Might Fall' — on random — starts playing while I'm watching the trailer. And you know how you just get that eureka of your life, where you are like, 'Aha'?"

Cudi said that when he was in L.A., he showed the mashup to West and director Hype Williams, who both encouraged him to put it out.

" 'Aww, man, that's perfect. You should put that out, like, now,' " Cudi said, mimicking West's voice. " 'Just put it out as a teaser.' "

West not only helped to circulate the trailer — he posted it on his popular blog — but he produced the song. While the two were at a listening session for fellow G.O.O.D Music artist Big Sean, Cudi said he told West about a melody and hook he had stuck in his head. West liked the idea, and the two went to the studio to start making the record.

Cudi said that once he heard the record, he knew it was destined for greatness. "Man, this sounds so epic. I want to use this for a movie one day. I heard they're working on 'Transformers.' It would be so ill if I could get this on 'Transformers,' " he thought.

Thanks to all of the hype surrounding the mashed-up trailer, Cudi and his agent are in talks to make it official. If it doesn't happen, he has no regrets, because the record dropped a few jaws.

"It allowed me to show people what I meant when I said, 'I'm not playing no more.' "

The rest of the fam was chilling in the living room watching Australia 2008
"Set In northern Australia at the beginning of World War II, an English aristocrat inherits a cattle station the size of Maryland. When English cattle barons plot to take her land, she reluctantly joins forces with a rough-hewn stock-man to drive 2,000 head of cattle across hundreds of miles of the country's most unforgiving land, only to still face the bombing of Darwin, Australia, by the Japanese forces that had attacked Pearl Harbor only months earlier." i decided to stay downstairs and watch it, it looked interesting, and it actually was a very good movie. I enjoyed it.

Official press release from nikepedia

Nike Sportswear and Grammy award winning recording artist Kanye West present the highly anticipated Nike Air Yeezy sneaker in Spring 2009.

The shoe, which takes West’s nickname Yeezy, draws upon the innovations from Nike’s rich sporting history and fuses them with original lines, materials, and design elements that reflect West’s unique style.

The Air Yeezy was developed from a strong relationship between West and Nike. Partnering with Nike Creative Director, Mark Smith, Kanye was taken through the product creation process, the same way athletes have with Nike Design for the past 37 years. This creative partnership of Smith and West’s talents as designers yielded a unique Nike Sportswear sneaker worth the wait. “Kanye is a truly creative talent,” said Smith. “He’s a natural designer—partnerships like this always enhance the creative experience and the end product.” West agrees that the partnership with Nike has been exciting. “Nike is such an important brand to me,” said West. “Whether you are on the court, in the street, in the club, at school, Nike represents excellence, the standard in design. Growing up, we looked forward to the release of new Nike’s the way we would an album by our favorite artist. So the opportunity to collaborate on a design with Mark Smith and Nike Design has been a dream come true, and a great experience.”

From the start, West and Nike’s shared vision was clear: to create a modern classic. An original Nike footwear style, that reflects elements of Nike’s sporting past, and remixes them with Nike innovation to deliver a unique shoe.

The creative process of the Air Yeezy began with the discussion around ideas and inspirations. The shoe began to take shape through a series of drawings and samples, each pulling inspiration and reference from some of Nike’s iconic innovations and rich design history, across both Basketball and Sportswear styles.

A careful balance was sought, each time new elements were added, with existing elements being taken away - a design process Smith refers to as “reductionism”. “Nike shoes need to function and always be innovative,” said Smith. “So the first thing we did was to make sure the design process that Kanye and Nike Design went through, mirrored that of our athletes.” “I’ve been designing Nike’s in my sketch pad since the fourth grade,” said West. “So to say I’ve been prepared for this would be an understatement. The really fun and challenging part for me was learning about Nike’s design process, learning more about fabrics and functions and colorways, and all of the details that go into designing a shoe of this quality.”

Following the fabled tradition of Nike’s design process, West and Smith went through a series of one-on-one design sessions. At Nike the ultimate test is one of performance, where the design meets the athlete’s movements. “Kanye could wear and perform in these shoes and really identify how we could make the shoes perform better.” Supplanting center court with center stage, West provided critical feedback on how the shoe performed throughout the course of his 2-3 hour performance sets, where the first prototypes of the Nike Air Yeezy were seen outside of Nike’s World Headquarters in Beaverton, OR.

*THE NIKE AIR YEEZY: NEW SCHOOL OF COMFORT.*

Born from Kanye West’s creative passion, built with Nike design and performance innovation, The Air Yeezy was fine-tuned on stages around the globe, challenging convention by remixing the past to create something uniquely new, as only Nike Sportswear can.

West is known for his non-stop energy both on the stage and off so the Air Yeezy had to support and sustain West from start to finish. An almost obsessive focus was put on delivering supreme comfort throughout the development of the shoe. Equipped with debossed ankle collar pods for added support and protection, extra-thick sock liners, a forefoot support strap, original functional tension lace loops, and Phylon tooling taken from the 1987 Nike Air Assault for added performance and comfort—all developed and integrated with one goal in mind: to keep Kanye on lock down in cushioned comfort during his performances during his many notoriously strenuous artistic live performances.

These performance attributes have been meticulously wrapped in premium full grain leather uppers and adorned with original design details that are uniquely Kanye and identifiably Nike. The remastered Nike Air Assault outsole is treated to glow-in-the-dark properties and will illuminate when the light is low. The forefoot support strap is premium grade patent leather and is of no-stitch construction. Clean seams are used throughout except for a premium suede toe wrap feature with visible stitch detail. Emblazoned across the Air Yeezy is an exclusive “Y” repeat pattern, as either a debossed or lasered detail, which takes inspiration from the Jordan brands iconic Elephant print material. This graphic treatment was developed by West and Smith to pay tribute not only to the name of the shoe and it’s co-creator, but also to the various moments in history that spurred West’s initial inspiration for the Nike Air Yeezy.
