Shout out to Blk Tray and M&M!
1) Wale - A Mixtape About Nothing, Kid Cudi - A Kid Named Cudi, Clipse - Road to Til the Casket Drops
2) Rudy Gay
3) PLAYYYYYED THE EFFFF OUTTTTT!!! (only T-Pain can do it now, period. Sorry Kanye)
4) Wake Forest
5) Wake, Pitt, UNC, UCLA
6) K-O-B-E.
7) Hell nah it ain’t Jordan Hamilton, Dorsey is garbage. #1 for 2009 = RENARDO SIDNEY.
8) Blog. Real talk.
honestly john wall and jordan hamilton goin head to head….john might get it
1. Ask someone in Rome to make you listen Colle der Fomento!!!
Anda then let me know if you like!
2. Rudy Fernandez.
3. -
4. Wake Forest.
5. WF, UNC, Louisville, Pitt.
6. Kobe.
7. Jordan Hamilton, Derrick Favors and Lance Stephenson.
8. Myspace for musician, Facebook for everybody, blog for athletes!
1- You’re prob already down with The Cool Kids, so I’d say check out Kid Cudi (the Man In the Moon mixtape), Wale (Mixtape About Nothing), and definitely, DEFINITELY check the whole Paper Trail album if you haven’t already. Best album of the damn year, forget C3.
2- If Russ Westbrook was in, he would’ve won. But now it’s Rudy Gay. Shake things up a bit.
3- The only rapper using AutoTune right is Weezy. Kanye almost played that ish to death because his album was so weak. The emotion was there, the implementation wasn’t.
4. UNC
5. Don’t watch the college game. NBA all day.
6. LeBron. It’s a two way race b/w him and Kobe, but LeBron’s the better distributor and all-around player even though Kobe’s offensive game is tops in the NBA. . . and prob will be for a while unless LeBron develops more (which will happen)
7. Haven’t been up on the prep scene this year.
8. FB. No doubt.
Good luck
Yea I had Russ Westbrook Winning it to.
Yea I Would start a team with KB to, He’s a winner
Yea I think the Audio Tune is Played Out to. They Just need to Rap.
I got UNC winning it all. There Good MAn.
There’s Alot of good talent In The 09 Class, But I know J. Hamilton can do he’s special man. He’s Like 6′9 with a Jump shot. How do you stop that.
1.Curren$y - Fast Times at Ridgemont Fly mixtape is ridiculous.
2. Rudy Gay or Rudy Fernandez if he does some soccer inspired stuff.
3. Honestly, I liked Auto Tune with T-Pain and Kanye. Lil Wayne? not so much. Jim Jones? Get that thing away from him.
4. Wake or UNC. I’d like Texas to win it since that’s my school.
5. Wake, Pitt, UNC, the fourth i’m not entirely sure on now.
6. For now? I’d go with Kobe. For the future? Lebron.
7. I have not followed any of the high school kids.
8. I use Twitter for every thing now.
1-no idea i live in france so i have the same problem
2-dwight howard for the back to back. But i still believe nate robinson has a chance.
3-the audio tune is definitely played out. for one song its cool but a whole album nuh uh.
4-i’m not that interested in the NCAA…i just know UNC is VERY good
5-the same
6-LeBron for sure. he is much younger ad as talented.
7-hamilton sure. i saw a video on youtube the othr, the dude is impressive.
8-Facebook!!
2. Rudy Gay-he can jump out of the gym and i dont dwight will be able to pull off another performance like last year.

5. Wake Forest, Georgetown, Louisville, and Oklahoma.
6. currently-Kobe, in the future-LeBron

I’d take LeBron if I’m starting a franchise, or maybe Chris Paul…
1. 808’s & Heartbreak by Kanye is good. The Drought 6 by lil Wayne is good. And Jamie Foxx’s intuition album is also good.

UNC, UConn, Duke, Davidson

SG: Kob

6. start a team would kobe or lebron probally lebron since hes younger but kobe does have more expeiricen idk either oen of those two
7. J HAM, agreed…
8. MYSPACE over everything
1. Drake - The Comeback Season , the kid is straight out of Toronto and is under Lil Wayne’s Young Money label, and to be honest, he’s like a polished version of Lil Wayne, and by that, I mean minus the gibberish, goo-goo-ga-ga talk and autotune. The lyricism is extra-witty and will definitely have your eyes and ears open on every verse. This mixtape definitely sounds like an album and for the majority of the mixtape, the dude raps over smooth, mellow beats, real easy on the ears.
Also check out Big Tuck’s and Fat Bastard’s (nice name) “Not A Stain On Me”, this that type of ish to wild out to and get amped pre-game. D/L it here http://www.thefader.com/articles/2008/6/4/freeload-big-tuck-f-fat-bastard-not-a-stain-on-me
Other honorable mentions would be the Lil Wayne feat. Pharrell - “Yes”, Yung LA feat. Young Dro, T.I. “Ain’t I” record which is a big hit in the south right now, Jim Jones “Drug Dealer” which flips Beyonce’s “Im A Diva” to “Im a Drug Dealer”, The Dream feat. Fabolous - Rockin’ that Sh*t Remix.
2. Rudy Gay theoretically should win this thing if he doesn’t do anything stupid. Dwight’s too tall for any variety in his dunks and Nate’s too short, plus Im sick of the prop dunks, I hope they don’t bring that ish to the comp again.
3. Auto-tune is played out, matter of fact, they totally killed this thing. The only guy that’s ok to use it is T-pain, everyone else just sounds bad.
4. UNC
5. UNC, Wake Forest, Oklahoma, Louisville
6. 1-Chris Paul 2- Kobe Bryant or Dwyane Wade 3-Lebron James 4-Kevin Durant 5-Dwight Howard
7. John Wall, sick with the handles, can score at will and dunk all over his opponents
8. Facebook, best way to keep connected with current friends as well as the lost ones. Some blogs are an absolutel eyesore.
2. Dwight howard hands down, he dominated last year and will do it again
4. UNC
5. Nova, Louilville, UCLA, Texas
6. Lebron, Kobe, Yao, Mello, and chris paul
7. Mooph Yarou, this african kid who’s an utter beast in the low post and is going to nova next year
8. Facebook

ps please Brandon come to the Wolves and play with your boy Kevin Love.
1. Check out my boys from SoCal: Inverse - http://www.inversehiphop.wordpress.com - they are extremely talented and have released a couple of good discs the last 2 years. Tunji is a future superstar. E-mail me back and let me know what you think if you get around to listening. maccent17@gmail.com If you like them, I’m sure we could make a plug happen.
If you don’t already know, the most talented artists from the past couple years: Lupe Fiasco, Brother Ali, Royce The 5′9″, Crooked I, Elzhi
2. I don’t care about the slam dunk contest. I don’t even know who is in it.
3. Auto-Tune is what it’s called. I think most mainstream hip-hop is awful and auto-tune is not a good trend. I suppose T-Pain sounds good with it, but it’s not my style. Lil Wayne sounds good in auto-tune also, but I’d prefer to hear him just rippin’ it.
4. Tough call on an ACC winner. I didn’t think UNC would lose a game all year either. They are just too talented.. but the ACC is even better than expected. I didn’t think Duke or Wake would be as good as they are. Personally, I’m on the Wake bandwagon now. That whole team is full of beasts… and Teague could be a first team all american.
5. I won’t be so bold to predict a final four, since anything can happen come tournament time and we’ve all seen the Big East destroying one another… but if i had to rank my top four teams right now, I’d go with: Wake Forest, UNC, Oklahoma, and Pittsburgh. Louisville stumbled early, but they look like one of the best teams in the nation now too.
6. If I had to start an NBA team right now, who would I go with? Well, it looks like people are mentioning current NBA player names, but I thought you were asking who we would draft. If I had the top pick, I’d take James Harden… sure, some players have more guady numbers (Griffin)… some of the freshman have lots of hype (DeRozan), but I think Harden’s game is going to translate to the NBA the best. He reminds me of Brandon Roy and look what he’s accomplished this year.
7. Being from the Seattle area, I’m going to bend the rules and pick Tony Wroten Jr. He’s only a sophomore, but he’s going to be a BEAST.

nate robinson mr.under dog
1. Stay With Classic Hio Hop, Old 90s
2. I Hope My Man RUUUUDY FERNANDEZ with “The Djaminha Dunk”
4. Hope UNC, but Wake Forest are great team, PITTs looks great Too
5. UNC, Uconn, UCLA, Wake F
6. Lebron, Paul, Durant, Gasol, Howard
7. RICKY RUBIO…..but in the USA John Wall
8. Tuenti
1. Ja Rule has a mixtape thats coming out soon. He’s coming back!!!!
2. I gotta go with Rudy Gay
3. It got a way overused but I think Kanye pulled it off only on a few songs. They just need to go back to normal rapping
4. UNC
5. Pitt, Louisville, UNC, UConn…. 3 from Big East, probably the most dominant conferernce in years
6. Honestly, Id go with Chris Paul. He’s probably the Most VALUEABLE Player. He plays the PG the right way, avg like 12 assists a game! Thats how a true PG plays the game
7. Hamiltons a monster out there but I think the best is John Henson going to UNC
8. stick with the blogging
1. Your not missing a whole lot, music is pretty weak right now. We are waiting on eminem and dre to release their highly awaited lp’s
2. It’s up for grabs right now, I don’t know how crazy its going to be though, there aren’t any big names. The NBA should sign James White for a 10 day contract just so that he could be in this.
3. Very played out, Kanye used more of his voice with his, but tpayne and lil wayne are overdone with it.
4. I’m going to go with larry drew’s team! UNC
5. It’s hard to say right now, the NCAA is real deep
6. If your talking about rookies to be, here’s my list.
Brandon Jennings pg
Demar Derozan sg
James Harden/Al Farouq Aminu sf
Blake Griffin pf
Jrue Holiday C jk, Idk who my center would be.
7. Jordan is most definitely up there with the best of em, he has the hard work, the fire in his eyes, plays til the last second, and loves the game. There is also Renardo Sidney and Lance Stephenson though, so it would have to be between them 3.
8. BALLISLIFE.COM!!!!
for your first question, best way to keep yourself updated on all the hip hop music are the first three links on this page……
http://forum.rapgodfathers.com/studio/
1) Mixtapes wise Wale - A Mixtape About Nothing, Kid Cudi - Man On The Moon Mixtape & Kid Cudi - A Kid Named Cudi Mixtape, Clipse - Road Til the Casket Drops, Pharrelll Williams - Out of This World, Jadakiss - From Ashy, to Classy, to Raspy Mixtape. And check out the two mixtapes by Charles Hamilton.
2) Dwight or Rudy Fernandez (he might throw some Europen soccer stuff into the comp)
3) Played out. But only one I say can do it now is T-Pain & Snoop. Maybe Kanye & Wayne.
4) Wake or UNC
5) UNC, Wake, UConn, and surprise run of West Virginia University. WV Stand UP! 304 all day everyday! (even though I am a Kansas fan!)
6) LeBron or Kobe.
7) Favours, Born Ready, John Wall. J - Hamilton (Honorable Mention)
8) I do MySpace & Facebook. Plus I love reading peoples blogs. So all three.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=8ZjXX3gmZYk
that’s all i can think of at the moment
Hey Brandon check out http://www.streethistory.com and you can download S.Madison new mixtape for free. I think would enjoy this mixtape alot. I hope you been watching the Wolves because they need a great pg and I think you are the answer to the Wolves problems. Also I see you are finally starting I bet that feel great to start and prove to all the hater that you are better then Ricky. Brandon if you were in the Dunk Contest would you win? Or would you rather go aginst CP3 in the skills? Keep your head up and get that dream son.
1. Kid Cudi- Day N Nite, and look out for upcoming T-Wayne (T-pain and lil wayne) and Child Rebel Soldier (CRS, kanye, lupe, and pharell, it is SICK!).
2. Dwight’s gonna repeat.
3. T-Pain was the only one that could ever pull it off. Kanye is alright sometimes, but now that everyone’s using it, played out.
4. Wake is slumping but they are still gonna win the conference.
5. Wake, Pitt, UConn, and St. Mary’s (Patty Mills, just sick).
6.Tim Duncan or CP.
7. John Wall is overhyped. Lance Stephenson or Derrick Favors, cause I know you remember what Lance was doing at the Elite 24 and when Gunnin’ came out.
8. Facebook is the best way to keep in touch with most people cause now old adults and parents use it and nobody’s really emailing anymore.
1. the new jadakiss album go hard ..and the new track by lil wayen i’ll never take a break …. ull find good music on youtube .
2.to tell u the truth idk … its guna be though .
3.its played out no one should use it maybe for only like a lil sample in a song thats it
4.unc
5.idk all i know louiville and unc are in it
6.chris paul ..or leBron
7.its john wall or lance stephson … the elite 24 was crazzzzzzzzzzy
8.myspace get at me bradon http://www.myspace.com/brazil3
