I should watch television more often so I can catch funny commercials like Allstate’s Blind Spot Mayhem, which I thought was pretty clever. The face that the guy makes at 0:12 is just great. I know all about blind spots. Although my Prius has 10 windows, every direction I look through my mirrors are blind [...]

The trailer for Josh Trank’s upcoming film CHRONICLE, which is set to hit screens February 3, 2012, is shot with a home camera. The film is about three friends, who gain superpowers from a mysterious substance, that turn on one another when personal problems arise.

One of my favorite rappers of all time. Like Tyler, the Creator, I’d have to say that my favorite Nas album would have to be “God’s Son.” Illmatic, yadda, yadda. Not taking anything away from that album but “God’s Son” had so much heart and significance from him that I felt like I was really [...]

My first time trying Frosted Cupcakery was at their Belmont Shore location many moons ago and remembered it to be unmemorable. Now that they’ve opened their second location in Hollywood, it gives me a reason to give them a second chance since Long Beach is so far away.

Black Star (Yasiin Bey, formly known as Mos Def + Talib Kweli) stopped by The Colbert Report last week to perform two tracks – Fix Up (unreleased) and Astronomy (8th Light) – and to talk briefly with the comedic host. Colbert was hilarious and had great synergy with the hip-hop duo. They discussed “underground” hip-hop [...]
