Jay-Z Resigns from Def Jam

Jay-Z officially resigned from Def Jam yesterday, December 24. Wow, I definitely thought he was sticking around and it had appeared that contract talks were on the up and up.

“I’ve been incredibly fortunate to have served as President of such a culturally-defining label as Def Jam over the last three years,” Jay-Z said in a statement. “During that time, I’ve had the pleasure of working with many of the world’s most dynamic artists and many of the most dedicated and talented executives in the music business today, including Antonio “L.A.” Reid. But now it’s time for me to take on new challenges.”

Jay-Z, born Shawn Carter, took over as President of Def Jam in 2005. Under his guidance, the rapper signed his former rival Nas to Def Jam and oversaw the release of hit records by Kanye West, Rihanna and Ne-Yo.

Island Def Jam Music Group Chairman Antonio “L.A.” Reid said that Jay-Z felt it was time to take on “different challenges in his life.”

Jay-Z will continue running and recording for his Roc-A-Fella imprint, which is distributed by the Island Def Jam Music Group. The mogul is rumored to be making a transition to the urban division of Sony Records with Rick Rubin. Full article

Eye-Fi SD Card as a Christmas Stocking Stuffer?

I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE!!! So if anybody is planning on getting me a XMAS present, this is the PERFECT GIFT. i rarely update my myspace & facebook profiles with new pics 'cause its such a hassle to take my SD card out of the camera, hook it up to my SD card reader, plug it into my laptop, then upload the pics to my file server. After that's done, i gotta weed out the good pics from the bad and upload it to my myspace or facebook or picasa. Its such a task to do that. If i have this card, all i need to do is shoot and upload anytime, anywhere. CHURCH!

Taken from Real New Yorkers Know, is an SD card that allows you to wirelessly transmit photos and videos from your digital camera to your home desktop or laptop. Within range of course. After a quick setup process, you can pop the SD card into your camera and never have to take it out again. Another great feature is Eye-Fi's ability to transmit the photos not only to your desktop, but also to your preferred online gallery and/or social networking site. Give the gift of Eye-fi to your shutterbug friend and save them from excuses such as "I haven't had time to upload to Facebook."

Shannyn Sossamon Interview in URB Magazine

my comment - i was watching a lil bit of the movie "the rules of attraction" this morning and it got me searching for shannyn sossamon on the internet. i remember she was a DJ in the LA scene back then and was discovered by Gwyneth Palthrow at a party she was djing at. anyways, i had a crush on that chick back then and she was a pretty hot commodity back in 2001-2002 when she starred in "a knight's tale", "40 days, 40 nights", and even doing a GAP commercial where she was scratching with Rob Swift & Shortkut (classic turntablist stuff). i wanted to see what she was up to these days and found this recent interview on URB magazine. apparently, she hasn't DJ'd in years and she is a single mother to her 4 year old son. i posted up the GAP commercial down below, so enjoy!

Woohoo! I got a new camera

Finally got my new canon sd1000 digi cam and I got a pretty sick silicon case for it. People, take good care of your electronics. Buy cases and screen protectors for it so u can resell it later for a good price. I pretty much replace my digital cameras every 2 years. Ebay'd my old canon sd400 and sold it for a good amount and I didn't have to pay a lot for the new camera. I got a 4gb card for it as well so I'm gonna use most of the space for videos. Gonna make sure to upload more videos to my youtube site. Holler!

CHRIS ROCKS WEIGHS IN ON THE MUSIC INDUSTRY

YES!!! He took the words right out of my mouth. Music is in a state of emergency right now and we need to raise up the game for 2008. Keep it an artform and let's make some good "art".

Chris Rock killed the music industry real quick in the November 15th issue of Rolling Stone Magazine. Check out his commentary below and go check out the Bob Lefsetz newsletter (very dope newsletter by the way) to see his always intriguing thoughts.

Chris Rock: Music kind of sucks. Nobody's into being a musician. Everybody's getting their mogul on. You've been so infiltrated by this corporate mentality that all the time you'd spend getting great songs together, you're busy doing nine other things that have nothing to do with art. You know how shitty Stevie Wonder's songs would have been if he had to run a fuckin' clothing company and a cologne line?

RollingStone: Plenty of rappers say, "I'm not a rapper, I'm a businessman."

Chris Rock: That's why rap sucks, for the most part. Not all rap, but as an art form it's just not at its best moment. Sammy the Bull would have made a shitty album. And I don't really have a desire to hear Warren Buffett's album - or the new CD by Paul Allen. That's what everybody's aspiring to be.

We live in a weird time. No one knows who's smart - we just know who makes money. "Hey, somebody invented Viagra! We don't know their name, but we know Pfizer, because they make the money." That guy made a pill that keeps your dick hard, and nobody knows who the fuck he is. The pharmaceutical companies are like fuckin' record companies. There's literally the Bo Diddley of medicine walking around, not getting his royalties. He signed all his fucking pill publishing away.

("Rolling Stone", Issue 1039, November 15, 2007, page 157)

Thanks for the heads up Corporate Lee!

Michael Vick sentenced to 23 months for dogfighting

Michael Vick, once one of the highest paid players in the National Football League, was sentenced to 23 months in prison for financing a dogfighting ring and helping to kill pit bulls that did not fight aggressively.
-------------------------
my comments - Almost 2 years in jail for Vick. Wow, he'll probably be gone from football til 2009-2010, but he'll still be 29-30 years old. He'll still be considerably young as a quarterback especially since quarterbacks don't mature into great ones until way into their career (ex. Vinny Testaverde, Randall Cunningham, Doug Flutie). Question is, will he be able to have the same athletic ability and skill that made him into an exciting quarterback to watch and are teams willing to take a chance in him knowing he'll still probably have the horrible baggage he's carrying right now which will equate to bad publicity towards the team? Its really ashamed that a guy with so much potential to be great have to go out this way, but at the same time, he's a total idiot.

I wonder how much their electric bill is during xmas season

This house in our neighborhood has gone overboard with the outside christmas lights and decorations for the past 2 years. I can't imagine how many extension cords they have going out of their house and the amount of noise it makes since most of the big items are air filled and powered by a bunch of air compressors. I'll probably get a lil tacky like that for next year since I'm already planning what to do and I already got a list of things to buy during the after xmas sale. Holler!

I'm officially old

I admit it, I have a bunch of grey hair growing on my dome. Why do u think I wear a hat all the time? Anyways, usually I wouldn't react greatly when a new grey hair magically pop up out of nowhere, but damn, today is different. I got a grey hair growing right on my chin. This totally sucks. What's next? Grey hair on my pubes? I'm old now and 30 is only a few months away.

Yay for snow, but it sucks at the same time

I love snow. There's something awesome about being stuck at home during the day and watching the snow cover everything in sight while bumming it out with the tv and the couch. Its the first snowfall of the season and so far we're getting more snow than we expected today. But as a full time dj, I also hate this time of the year. I just wish the snow stopped a few hours ago. Once the snow goes on into the night, it basically means nobody wants to come out to drink & party, no money will be made at the bar, no money for the dj, and bars & clubs will sometimes not even bother opening. I'm not working tonight and I'll be chillin' at home with the wifey. Maybe I can take advantage of this free night by being productive and accomplish everything I was supposed to do last night. We'll see, I'll keep u all updated.

Here's a nice post about me from Neran's blog

Hahahaha, yea i was drunk. This was after Eyebar last Wednesday and I had to get my quick pita fix. Called up Neran to see what he's up to. Met up with him and Raf at Kickballers and apparently I wrote this nice note for Diallo. Barely remember it, but I do remember having a nice convo with them outside Kickballers in the cold with Rebecca from Modern, shivering out there while sobering up, probably for a good hour (DAMN U Neran) and I still didn't get the hat and jacket I wanted from Kickballers.

Voted for the BIG THREE of course and I even added Rajon Rondo in the mix as well as an unnamed nominee. I need to get a new jersey this season, thinking about a KG jersey since I already got a Paul Pierce jersey a few years ago (its a NIKE SWINGMAN jersey too, FYI Nike doesn't do NBA jerseys anymore).
