Jodie, Noooooooo!!!!

I am a die hard Kentucky fan. Even when they are having a rough season, I still support them in everything they do. I am, of course, from Kentucky. It's home for me. so the last few weeks have been very good. We fired coach Gillespie, and hired Coach Calipari. Things are looking good for next season. And I just was reading the other day that the big two players, Jodie Meeks, and Patrick Patterson, were excited about the possibilities of the upcoming season with the new coach. All this, and the fact that a couple of recruits from Memphis may follow coach Calipari to Kentucky, made things very exciting, and the outlook for next year was great!.....until today...
Junior Guard, and star player of the team, Jodie Meeks declared himself for the NBA Draft. That is judt GREAT! The team showed this year that they can't play without him. If he's having a bad day, the team has a bad day. So to not have him on the team AT ALL, we're doomed! Well, maybe doomed... I don't want to say one player determines our season, because one monkey don't stop no show. But this season, if jodie had a bad game, THE TEAM had a bad game!
With that being said, Meeks did not hire an agent, so all is not lost just yet. For those who don't know, as long as a player doesn't hire an agent, they have the option to come back to play the next season in school. So Jodie is basically just testing the draft waters to see where he would go. I mean, this is kind of smart, but as I fan, I really don't want the guy to leave just yet. The team needs him. And as of right now, he's a projected 2nd round pick. If he holds out another year, he could probably get that higher, and go as at least a lottery pick. I think he realizes that as well, which is why he didn't hire an agent. Hopefully, he goes out there, gives it his all, and puts on a good show for those NBA scouts to help his stock, but realizes he could use one more year in school. That's what I want to happen. If he decides to go, then I wish him luck, and hopefully he gets drafted by the Charlotte Bobcats! ( a guy can dream right? He'd go from my favorite college team to my favorite pro team!) I guess we'll just have to wait it out and see in the upcoming weeks.

    Seeing how hes only projected in the second round and didnt hire a agent, good chance he will come back. Unless he just tears up the pre-draft camps. Don't see that happening. He will do better to come back and play a year under Calipari, and take his game to the next level.

Rittz - Top of the Line Album Review!

Image
    Watch the Video Review here! This has probably been the hardest review I’ve had to write. Upon first listen of Top of the Line, Rittz’s 3rd official album on Tech N9ne’s Strange Music record label, I said to myself, “Holy shit, this is going to be my first 5 star album review! That was amazing!” I usually try not to form too much of an opinion about a project until I’ve listened to it a few times, but after just one listen, I already knew this one was special. Every emotion that you can feel while listening to an album are present here, and that’s often not the case. Rittz even managed to have me a bit emotional at the end of the album (more on that later.) There is not a single bad song throughout this entire project. Not one! This is also very rare, especially over the course of 24 songs. But the real question I’ve been asking myself all week, and even still now is, is this album really a 5 star album? I’ve spent the past week listening to TOTL trying to co

Krizz Kaliko - Go Album Review

Image
Watch the Video Review here! Right from the jump here, I want to say that I like Krizz Kaliko’s music. When I first was coming across the Strange Music camp, I felt as if Kaliko was a Spliff Starr type of dude, meaning he was more of a sidekick or hype man for Tech N9ne instead of a very well talented artist himself. Once I got further into Strange Music, I realized this guy can really spit pretty much as good as anybody on the roster. But, I’ve always felt that he was similar to Cee-Lo Green. Sure, the guy can rap, and rap better than most rappers in the game. But, I’ve always felt like his singing is what would make him a star. I’ve always really like Kaliko singing more than his rapping. And on his latest album, Go, Krizz Kaliko gives us a lot more of that singing that I feel he’s so great at, and the album is better off because of it. The album starts off with an introduction from a motherly voice talking to Krizz and pretty much setting us up for what’s to come the

A Look Back at 2018!

2018......... Whew..... Where do I begin? Let's get the bad out the way first. 2018 has been the worst year of my work career, which says a lot because in the past 12 years, I've had two other times where I thought, "It doesn't get any worse than this!".... I was wrong.... It does..... It's been like a long running bad joke with no punchline.... Like no ending!! Just trash!!! Throw the whole work year away!! 👆🏿Has led to some Mental health issues. At some points of the year, I didn't know if I'd even have a career to end the year! Each time I thought things were improving, I'd get kicked in the dick and brought back to the reality of suck again. 🤷🏿‍♂️ The song I wrote called, " I'm Fine ," was real! And about me! Family: We lost one to start the year with the passing of my step-mother. Terrible way to begin the year. My father is Superman in my eyes, and it was tough, yet understandable, to see Superman in a weakene
