KD Calling out Wade

        Where does one get the nerve to call out a back to back champion? If you haven't heard, Kevin Durant came out of the blue to promote his playmate, James Harden, saying that he should replace Dwyane Wade as a top 10 player. Wade responded with an instagram picture and KD replied "Don't tweet me, show me."

       My reaction when I heard this was what the hell, why would you do that Kevin?! We're you and Harden pillow talking about how you lost to Miami two years ago and decided to vent some pent up frustration? I hope Wade blocks or dunks on KD the way he did in the Gatorade commercial. These two obviously aren't the best of friends. Just another reason why this upcoming season is going to be fresh.

Kendrick Lamar's Control Verse

         I know I'm way late with this but who cares, let's get into it. Kendrick Lamar has done it again. He managed to hurt a lot of feelings and stir up a frenzy on ANOTHER MAN'S SONG. But let's be real for a second. Kendrick's verse shows how soft hip hop has become. Competition has always been a part of the game, it's a part of life. Rappers have been getting way too buddy buddy with each other, I wouldn't be surprised if  they have sleepovers and schedule play dates. Nowadays, hip hop beefs are a joke, they aren't even consistent anymore. Pusha T came out with Exodus 23:1,Wayne responded and then what? Meek Mill and Cassidy? Are you kidding me?

         Kendrick's verse on Control revived the competition amongst rappers for a bit which is nice, hopefully it lasts. A lot of rappers need to get called out more often, it cleanses Hip Hop of wackness. Thank you Kendrick, now if you could slap some sense into Kanye and bring him back to Earth when you two go on tour, that would be appreciated.

Miley Cyrus

        I remember when Hannah Montana was on the rise, I couldn't stand any of it. I said to myself "Pretty soon, controversy is going to strike". Sure enough, here we  are! Where do I begin? Let me start by saying this- Girls are worshipping Miley Cyrus like dudes worship Tupac. I bet if she got "Slut Life" tatted across her butt, some girls would follow suit. Real quick, am I the only one who's disturbed that she has more Twitter followers than LeBron? Whatever, anyway, I'm not a Miley hater, I just don't get it. Women have been twerking and sticking their tongues out before Miley, so what's the big deal? And if it were a black girl doing the same thing... let's not play that card, but you know where I'm going with that. And as far as her music goes, I would rather listen to a recording from a gas station men's room.

      How long are we going to care about Miley's every move? And what do her "fans" see in her? I guess she's free spirited but so is every other 20 year old. I'm not going to go any further with this. The way I see it, this Miley thing is a phase. Will people remember her 20 years from now-yes, sadly. But let's just be grateful that she hasn't started a revolution of flat white girls actin' a fool. White girls are twerking more often but it hasn't got out of hand. But the moment you see 5 year old girls twerking at a birthday party, that's when all hell breaks loose.

The Return

      So, where were we? A lot has happened since my last post- Kendrick Lamar shook up the rap world (again), Miley has gotten irritating and dumped, Kanye's daughter was born, KD called out Wade and Eminem is dropping another album. I can't promise that I won't ever go away again but I will say this-I'm back- Keeping you in the mix as always.
