Disturbing stuff!

Opinions...

Khan V Barrera...


Im a big Amir Khan fan, who in all honesty expected an upset when he fought Breidis Prescott back in September. I think that was largely due to the way the heavy hitting, unknown columbian was written off from a very early stage. Although not shocked at the defeat, i was shocked at the way Prescott made Khan look like bambi on ice!

Just a little reminder...

3 months then passed when Khan convincingly stopping Oisin Fagen in the 2nd round in December. My old man then told me that Team Khan were targeting Marco Antonio Barrera as his next opponent. I couldn't believe that they would be so stupid to even consider it...

This Saturday Amir Khan does indeed go toe to toe with an aging Mr Berrera. For me, this is a huge gamble to go against a boxer that boasts 43 KO's from 63 wins. Berrera is not the fighter he once was so Khans rapid hand speed and movement will be the key to victory but something tells me he faces a tough task ahead.

With Khan being only 22, what kind of effect will a loss to an aging star have on him? Some have said that he'll need to look for a new hobby...a bit harsh id say!

Has Khan got a chance?

SOULTROPIC----------------->>>>>>PHOTOGRAPHER

Let me introduce you to my friend and photographer; Olivier Fonteau.

Fonteau goes by the artistic name of SOULTROPIC, and is based in the French West Indies, Martinique.

Below are a series of photographs he took documenting the general strike in Martinique. During this historical movement, everything comes to a halt for the duration of the strike; that has been ongoing for the past four weeks, and he thinks, may end today.

Well, when I saw these shots, I thought they were marvellous in my opinion. The action, the emotion, the portrait shots are strikingly beautiful, the colours.....

I just had to share them with you guys------------------>SEE SEE xxx

THIS ARTIST...THAT AMAR STEWART---->>>



24 year old Artist Amar Stewart, hails from Leamington, in the West Midlands; round my way. After finding that The Midlands isnt exactly stimulation central, he packed up and left. He moved to London 5 years ago, and when I saw his work, I wished I had known him there, because we would have collaborated by now.....

Anyway, returning from the tangent. Stewart mainly came into his own, artistically, when he arrived in London Town, 'Surrounded by such creative people and heavily driven by the energy from the city', he began to gain inspiration that is the impetus behind the majority of his work.

Now, he started off with graffiti art, creating pieces influenced by people, which he then developed into larger scale, and also incorporated various different mediums, such as, chalk, pencil and acrylic paint.

Mr Stewart is a bloody hard worker too, he has such drive, enthusiasm and vivacity that only adds to the personality of his creations. Check out all these blogs he contributes and runs simultaneously whilst doing his day thing, and working on his collection for various exhibitions due to run through 2009/10---->

BLU ART...GO ON, STIMULATE THOSE EYEBALLS..................



So its 11.30pm and I am sitting cross legged on the floor, looking at the screen, in the same way I have done, all bloody day long. Been working on concepts, and a theme for my installation for an up and coming exhibition.

After a coffee, and numerous arty chats with my boy Amar Stewart, he sent me this to watch, and although I've seen something like this before, (possibly this actual one) I cant recall it, and therefore am overwhelmed to have to post it.

I love this...just going to forget the text, and just press publish. And then re-watch it. WATCH IT! IT IS GOOD...

Christian Bale & Johnny Depp in 'Public Enemies'

See what you think, this looks quite good to me!

Soulja Boy...Hmmm...

I don't know whether to love or hate this dude! Really, I don't!

He confuses me...
I've put a video below of Soulja Boy showing how he produces with the Fruity Loops production software.

This is what I like about Soulja Boy:
He's trying to do more than just be a novelty one-hit wonder by homing in on his other crafts...and I appreciate this even more since I'm currently saving for my own studio! Its also impressive that he actually bought the free demo version of Fruity Loops to make 'Crank Dat', his debut number one single, which probably made him truckloads of cash monee! So I recognise the hustle, and the fact that he invested his money into furthering himself...in fact, I commend him on that. I also quite like his Gucci trainers, they're a bit sick actually.

But here's what I don't like about Soulja Boy:
He has no humility! There's no need to show off all the money you have, keep that ish to yourself. Secondly, after listening to some of his beats, I realised that they're not very good. This in itself is a shame...I wish he was a wicked producer so I could let him off for the arrogance.

See what you think about the video - and the Gucci trainers!

Christina be a Hot Blonde Mess - The Conclusion

I told you I'd post any new information on the Christina Milian massacre to you guys...well here it is!

There was a lot of fuss regarding the hilarious blog that got released with Usher, Bryan Michael Cox, Jermaine Dupri and Johnta making fun of Christina's new blonde look and 'slutty' swagger (by the way, she's now signed to Radio Killa Records, The Dream's label...just like I predicted). Here's the response from The Dream regarding the issue during an interview with Rap Radar:

"Recently, your girlfriend Christina Milian has caught a lot of heat over the pictures she took at the Atlanta Hawks game".
Oh yeah, they hate her. [But] I love it. Cause evidently, we controlling the airwaves right now. People that can’t hate on me are going to hate on her.

"It seems much of criticism comes from the blonde dye job".
That sh*t look good to me. She is an artist. She changed her hair color cause she wanted to change it. I aint have sh*t to do with it. Why I look like walking around making someone change their hair color.

"Did you feel some sort of way about Johntá Austin, Jermaine Dupri, and Usher were clowning her"?
Hmm mmm, of course I did. I called all of them. First person I called was Johntá Austin.
Did you speak to Usher?He called me and told me he was sorry and or whatever. But she on Radio Killa. She feel a certain way about it, then I’m good on you. We can’t even work. And to clear this up, “Oh, she f*ckin’ for tracks” and this sh*t, I be like these muthaf*ckas must be stupid. It’s a recession ain’t nobody got to f*ck for tracks. We basically giving them away. There’s a clearance!


Anyhoo...I've found this story hilarious from start to finish...just goes to show how a bad makeover and slightly skanky attitude can get you a record deal!

Tuesday's Tracks

Jazmine Sullivan's fourth single. Directed by Syndrome, who also directed her last video “Lions, Tiger, & Bears”. “Dream Big” was produced by Missy Elliott and is Jazmine’s first single in the UK from her debut self-titled album so you should have heard it already. We’re loving what your doing Jazmin.

I liked this one as soon as i heard it. The video is a bit outlandish though...
Calvin Harris - I'm Not Alone
