Meeelllloooooo!!!!



Get ready people, get ready to see something special this NBA season. Carmelo Anthony has reinvented himself during the last 2 years. I know I'm gonna sound crazy to some but I would like to give some of this credit to him being around Kobe Bryant during the summer for the Olympics. After winning the gold many of the players talked about Melo being if not one of but the leader of that team. We all know that Kobe Bryant is the best player in the NBA right now and think some of that rubbed off on Melo during that time. Anybody who knows me knows that I can't give all that credit to just Kobe but also Michael Jordan for just talking to him and staying by his side through his ups and downs. But like many of the young community would say "At the end of the day"...( I really dont like to hear people use that over and over while talking, terrible!)...he got his act together, started to appreciate being a professional athlete and now he has the chance to become a great player starting with this season.

This post was really for to talk big shit about how good Melo is playing right now. I guess I would consider him my favorite player since Mike and the demise of A.I. Currently leading the NBA in scoring, included in a lot of MVP talks (all of this you can check on your local sports website). I know it's early but I just got a feeling about this year in the NBA. Something's gonna happen!

Excuse me ya'll no disrespect but...




Can we for a minute look at the humor of the Kanye vs. Taylor Swift Beef? When I first saw this during the MTV Awards, I laughed. I thought it was so funny, Swift looked stunned as did the rest of the people watching the show. I know it was rude but I like to look at the comedic side of things. Beyonce seemed to have said "Alright Kanye"! One thing my sister did bring to my attention, Swift never said Thank You to Beyonce for allowing her to say her thank you speech. Though it was later stated that MTV set that up, she still should have said "Thank You Beyonce for doing this".

Maybe he is cool...




It seems so crazy. Jay-Z on Oprah, Jay-Z on Bill Maher, Jay-Z everywhere. With the release of his latest album Blueprint 3, Jay-Z has been doing a lot of promotion for this album. He was the first music guest on Jay Leno's late night tv show along with Kayne West and Rhianna. I thought to myself, "have I ever seen this much hoopla over any of his past release?". NO! I've been a fan of Jay-Z since 97. The first album I ever heard from him was "In my Lifetime, Vol.1". I then went back to listen to the street classic Reasonable Doubt released in 1996. I ask "How come it seems like Jay-Z is just coming out with his first album"? It seems like his music is now accepted and great for mainstream. He has been taken away from the streets completely and is now for them. This is the same way I felt when I saw the change in Harlem's own Rucker Park, It seem like a different audience was starting to accept it. Now with so many people loving Jay-Z it seems the same way. I hope with all the attention he continues to make music for the people who have been his supporters from the beginning.

So now he's cool, he's such a great guy. His lyrics mean so much, he came from nothing..blah, blah, blah. Jay-Z is just a dude from the projects that rapped his way out the hood. His lyrics just talk about shit that happens in the hood any day. I guess it's poetry when he talks about slinging rocks, smoking weed, drug deals, fast cars and women, and now the hottest chick in the game wearing his chain.
Yea, OK!

Since you been gone...

It's been a long time I shouldn't left you, without a good blog to step too. I must admit, it has been some time since the last post. The "Summer of Bleek" is over. Started off wrong with the car accident and ended right going back to work. Some things on my mind soon to post. Including artwork, news, sports, and anything that comes to mind.

This young man wildin'



Glad to see lately more older men taking a role in mentoring young men. While we have seen the mistakes Michael Vick has made, he has future Hall of Fame coach Tony Dungy as a mentor to him. What a way to go out on top. Win the Super Bowl, retire and help young men all over the country in and out of prison. One if his first challenges is to get Vick back into the NFL and living a productive life. Our next mentor has come as member of my favorite NBA team in Chauncey Billups of the Denver Nuggets. After a series of events this summer JR Smith is not having a good off-season. After being released from prison he posted some questionable comments on his twitter account. Some believing that he was involved in the Blood street gang. By replacing all words that included the letter c with k's because as a member of the bloods I guess you can't write the letter c. I remember in junior high school this girl that was in the bloods showed me her blood book, and I remember her not writing c's. Foolish.

So that lead me back to Chauncey who has decided to move in with JR for the remainder of August help him out a bit. “We’ve got some talking to do,’’ Billups said in an interview with HoopsHype.com. Smith is currently staying in Las Vegas, and that's where Chauncey will travel to help this young man who obliviously doesn't appreciate the privilege to play in the NBA
