2010-03-14T19:56:00.004-04:00

What's Fresh...?

Lady Gaga and Beyonce are back with this 9 minute video for "Telephone." The Quentin Tarantino-esque video features what Gaga describes as "the idea that America is full of young people that are inundated with information and technology and turn it into something that was more of a commentary on the kind of country that we are." Beyonce is lookin' good as always and Lady Gaga's off-the-wall style is found all over this mini-movie.

GTA meets iPhone/iPod Touch

What's Fresh...?

Without much hoopla (which is a real surprise to me) Grand Theft Auto released a game for the iPhone & iPod Touch to the iTunes store on Monday. Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars follows Huang Lee who is attempting to deliver an ancient sword to his Uncle Kenny to ensure his family retains control of the Triad gangs of Liberty City after his father dies. Huang is spoiled & rich kid and obviously expects everything to run smoothly, but his trip does not go exactly as planned. After being robbed and left to die, he will search for honor, riches and revenge in the most dangerous and morally bankrupt city in the world.

Below is a video of some of the game play.

Rockafella vs Roc-A-Fella

2010-01-16T01:20:00.005-05:00

What's Fresh...?

In 2006, 51-year-old celebrity chef Terry Miller won $250,000 on cooking reality show 'Hell's Kitchen,' and named his restaurant after his specialty dish, the "King Prawn Rockafella." Soon after, Jay-Z made claims that the name of Miller's restaurant had people believing that it was associated with his record label.

After a long court battle, the UK court ruled in favor of Miller, granting him the trademark and exclusive rights to use the name.

Jay-Z and Beyonce were recently named Hollywood's richest couple of 2009 by Forbes magazine, but obviously money can't buy you everything.

Usher estimates over $1 million in cash and assets were taken from his vehicle in December of 2009. While parked in front of an AT&T store at the Lenox Square Mall in Atlanta someone broke into Usher's car taking duffle bags, jewelry & most importantly computers containing tons of unreleased music.

Unreleased music by Usher has been hitting the Internet at an alarming rate, since the robbery, leaving Usher concerned with whether his album would be released during the first quarter of the year.

Below is a list of the things Usher reported stolen. Approximately 1.065 Million bucks!

Since then I've downloaded "This Charming Mixtape" which features a real dope track with Solange, a "Jersey/Baltimore Club-esque" track featuring a Whitney Houston sample, and some dope vocals from Jesse Boykins III.

Pirate Radio

2009-11-03T10:58:00.007-05:00

In the 1960s a group of rogue DJs, on a boat in the middle of the Northern Atlantic, played rock records and broke the law all for the love of music. The songs they played united and defined an entire generation and drove the British government crazy. By playing Rock 'n Roll they were standing up against the British government who did everything in their power to shut them down. The band of rebels is lead by The Count, played by the Academy Award Winning Philip Seymour Hoffman, Quentin the boss of Radio Rock, Gavin the greatest DJ in Britian, Midnight Mark, Doctor Dave and Young Carl who comes of age amidst the chaos of sex, drugs and Rock 'n Roll.

A Gentleman Walks Through A Door

A gentleman always glances behind him when he walks through a door. He never lets a door slam a door in another persons face. It doesn't matter if the other person is a man or a woman. If it is a revolving door, a gentleman pays more attention than usual. He steps ahead, does not move to fast, pushes the door open, and makes the world a little easier for the person after him. He never shares a revolving door section with another person. He respects their space.

Gucci Bandana - Soulja Boy feat. Shawty Lo & Gucci Mane

2009-04-22T08:29:00.000-04:00

What's Fresh...?

This song is quite ridiculous...but that isn't why I'm posting the video. I'm sure a lot of people are gunna say I'm a hater...but I actually am one of the few people I know who has enjoyed Soulja Boy since the beginning. Check at 1:18 into the video when Soulja Boy hops out of the Lambo. Fake Gucci High Tops? Yeah. If you're hopping out of a $100K+ Lambo I'd like to think you could spring for the $300-$500 official Gucci joints.

I actually saw a picture of these on Soulja Boy's Twitter with the caption "Turn My Swag On!"

Let me know what you think!

A Gentleman Attends A Wedding

Obviously, a gentleman only attends a wedding he has been invited to. If his invitation does not say "and guest," he attends alone, even if a reception follows. He arrives on time and sits on the appropriate side of the aisle. The left side if he is a friend on the bride or the right side if he is a friend on the groom. If he knows them both, he sits on the side with the greater number of empty seats. During the ceremony, he stands when everyone stands, and he does not chat during the music. At the reception he speaks to the bride and groom and to their parents. If their is dancing, he does his part, partnering with as many bridesmaids as possible.

When To Wear A Tuexedo

A gentleman never wears a tuxedo before six o'clock, no matter what anyone else does. If he owns his own dinner clothes (the correct term for what is known as a tuxedo) he wears them anytime the invitation says "black tie" or "black tie optional." Likewise, if he is attending any formal event (wedding reception or dance etc.) that begins after eight in the evening, he may assume that black tie is appropriate. However, if he knows that other guests at the party are unlikely to be dressed in dinner clothes, he plays it safe and wears a dark suit. If the invitation does not indicate any dress code, or id "black tie optional" is suggested, a gentleman does not feel obligated to rent dinner clothes. In such situations, his dark suit will serve him perfectly.

Found these on Hypebeast. I like the silhouette of the shoe and the patterns are crazy...

From Hypebeast:

"The ecentric styles of Rolland Berry are seen once again as the designer continues his partnership with Reebok on a collection of women’s styles. The NPC Slim Mid is a multi-velcro design with seven straps running the length of the shoe. The motifs on the shoes are each Berry-esque which will surely capture much attention."

A Gentleman & His Cap

A gentleman will probably own a stack of baseball caps, which he wears after work, on the weekends, or on casual days at the office. He may feel that a beloved baseball cap is almost a part of his body but he should never forget that it is still a hat and that common courtesy demands it be treated as such. A gentleman does not wear his cap inside most public buildings, especially houses of worship. Traditionally, a gentleman would remove his hat if he were greeting a woman or being introduced to a new acquaintance of either sex. If a gentleman wears a hat to cover up an unwashed mass of hair or to disguise a balding head, he need not remove it. He gives tug to his cap brim out of respect for the other person, and as a wistful acknowledgement of courtesy long past.

What's Fresh...?

Anyone who knows me will tell you my obsession for Polo often supercedes any other purchase or situation involving money. That being said...I've always loved Billionaire Boys Club and Ice Cream but hardly ever find myself in a position with an extra $500 for some jeans. Needless to say, I found myself downtown yesterday and made my first purchase from the brand. Nothin' 2 crazy...but somethin' I know I will enjoy having!

In addition, I made a new friend! As I was payin' for my phone case, the girl workin' upstairs asked me if I've shopped there before. I told her no...and as she continues to ask me if I'm sure and tells me that she swears she has seen me before...she asks me for my name. I start spelling it out...M-A-T-T-Y K-R-A-U-S and she replies in almost a whisper "ummm...we're friends on Facebook." I started rolling! Small world...this internet shit is crazy! So shout out to my long time Facebook "friend" and now real life friend!

What's Fresh...?

A Gentleman & His Cologne

A gentleman considers cologne to be intimate apparel. It should not be a topic of conversation (positive or negative) among other people in the room. Instead, it should be saved as a pleasant surprise for people with whom he makes close physical contact with. A gentleman understands that cologne is an accessory and is not supposed to be used as a substitute for deodorant. A dab on either side of the neck is quite enough. When used in excess, cologne is annoying and raises questions about what smells are being covered up. Anytime a person can identify the brand of scent that a man is wearing, he is wearing too much.
