200 Followers!

I just wanted to stop and take a moment to thank everyone for helping me to get 200 followers! Thanks guys, took some time but I finally got to it! Now onto the next milestone!

Street Art.

Alright so a while back I learned about this amazing Street Artist named Banksy. Banksy began as a freehand graffiti artist 1992–1994 as one of Bristol's DryBreadZ Crew (DBZ), with Kato and Tes. He was inspired by local artists and his work was part of the larger Bristol underground scene. From the start he used stencils as elements of his freehand pieces, too. By 2000 he had turned to the art of stencilling after realising how much less time it took to complete a piece. He claims he changed to stencilling whilst he was hiding from the police under a rubbish lorry, when he noticed the stencilled serial number and by employing this technique, he soon became more widely noticed for his art around Bristol and London. Today Banksy continues his Street Art with different styles. Trying to make people realize how the world around them really is. For example Banksy is also credited for the very controversial Opening Couch Gag from the Simpsons depicting people working in deplorable conditions and using endangered or mythical animals to make both the episodes cel-by-cel and the merchandise connected with the program. Anyways, I'm going to put up some pictures of Banksy's work and ill add the Simpsons opening for those who like the Simpsons.

Something different.

Alright guys so usually I just go on a rant about something, or I post something new about the NBA but today I will actually be giving my own personal review of a movie. Crazy right? Anyways, todays movie i'm going to review is Easy A. It has the actress Emma Stone in it and I must say she plays her character perfect. I found her to be witty and interesting during the whole movie. I loved her role and honestly just because of how well she did I would easily recommend this movie to anybody. Alright so the movie is basically about a girl who goes to High School and by some crazy misunderstanding a rumor about her spreads and the movie basically takes you on her journey of how a little lie about her weekend turned into a giant catastrophe. Anyways, I'd give the movie personally an 8 out of 10 and like I said would recommend it to anyone. Anyways, here's a trailer of the movie and if you like it be sure to check it out. Anyways, as always thanks for reading.

Mainstream Music.

So I've noticed recently that a majority of the bloggers here either do not like or do not listen to Mainstream Music and I thought that was cool since where i'm from everyone is constantly listening to just the most "recent" up and coming music. I personally do not listen to just what is on the Radio but to everything. I like to enjoy my music, not judge it. Anyways, thats my rant for today, speaking of music that isn't Mainstream here's a lil something by a couple of guys who make up a hip hop group called "Chiddy Bang". Majority of the people do not know who Chiddy Bang is and it sucks because they're really talented. If you like this song be sure to check out other songs by Chiddy Bang.

Amazing Movie Quotes.

Alright so today I felt like posting something different. So for those of you who have never seen the movie the quote i'm posting is from the Movie Fight Club. It has famous actors Brad Pitt and Edward Norton. The movie was based off the book Fight Club by Author Chuck Palahniuk. Anyways, I personally really liked this quote and thought perhaps other would also. So without further ranting here's the quote and ill post the video of the quote also so you can feel the emotion that the actor is speaking with.

Tyler Durden: Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off.

Sports Blog

Alright guys so as of today, March 23rd, the Chicago Bulls have taken the top seat in the Eastern Conference. . The Heat continues to struggle with problems finishing games and have recently been collapsing in the fourth quarter. The NY Knicks are currently in 7th spot for the Eastern Conference and are struggling as well as the Heat. Recently in a lost to the Boston Celtics the NY Knicks were out scored 33 to 17 in the fourth quarter. Things not looking good in the Eastern Conference.


Now for the Western Conference. The Lakers look to three-peat as they're currently on a 12-1 winning streak since the All-Star break and have been performing at there usual playoff level. San Antonio is currently first in the Western Conference but during a game against the Charlotte Bobcats Tim Duncan apparently landed on his ankle oddly and had to leave the remainder of the game. Since then the Spurs have only released that Tim Duncan will have to miss a few weeks but should be back for the playoffs. And the last time i'm going to talk about from the Western Conference is the Denver Nuggets. Since the trade between the Nuggets and Knicks people all thought that the Knicks got the 'good' side of the deal, well the Nuggets are currently ten and four since the trade while the knicks are six of six. Thus meaning that the Nuggets are actually doing better without Carmelo Anthony. So to the Nuggets I say congratz. Anyways thanks for listening as always.

PS: Added a clip of Derrick Rose highlights of this year, man what a great player he is turning out to be. Perhaps the next Jordan? The kid is ranking in top 10 on points and assist.

A long day.

Don't you guys hate when you have a day that is going to so slow that it seems like its taking forever? Or have you ever been sitting in a class, or at work just looking at the clock counting minute by minute down as if it were your last? Have you ever just wanted to be outside doing whatever you want? I hate having to plan things as often as I do because I do work and go to school and alot of the time I never can just goof off like I wanna. Anyways todays blog is kinda short but tell me in comments below your thoughts on long days. Do you like them, hate them, or don't care about them at all? Thanks for listening.

Results for Basketball games on Sunday: Chicago Bulls beats Miami Heat with a close ending.

Los Angeles Lakers beat San Antonio Spurs in a blowout, quite disappointing for the Spurs.

Big Basketball games today!

Alright guys its Sunday and what better to do on your Sunday then watch sports? We have two great match ups today between top Eastern Conference teams and top Western Conference teams.


Game 1 we have Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls competing against there rival for the top spot in the Eastern Conference, The Miami Heat. The Miami Heats star Lebron James has been battling Derrick Rose all year for the Most Valuable Player(MVP) of the year award. This game could possibly be the deciding factor between who goes home with that title. Check it out today on ABC at 1 PM ET.

In Game 2 we have Kobe Bryant and the two time defending champions the Los Angeles Lakers versus the Current top spot in the Western Conference and perhaps the best Spur team the NBA has ever seen. The Lakers have been playing amazing since the All Star Break, but can they really beat a team as good as the Spurs? Check it all out today on ABC at 3:30  PM ET.

PS: For all you Europeans out there I will broadcast the results of the games after they're over on my blog in tonights post, so check it out!

Amazing freestyle.


Alright so recently I was browsing through freestyles on Youtube of different artist and found this really amazing freestyle between Asher Roth and Kid Cudi. I listened to the freestyle and was shocked at how well Asher did. I expected Cudi to do good because I've always enjoyed his music but Asher did quite well for someone who isn't talked about as often as should be. Anyways here's the video of the freestyle, check it out, its good.
