Day 128: Dub Car Show in LA - Part Deuces - My Pictures! (Events)

- No! Tickets are still not on sale! =P

Sorry for being a bit sloppy with this post but I didn't want to crowd my last one with too much stuff.

Anyways, I got some nice pictures @ the Dub Car Show of a few awesome cars, briefly saw Cain Velasquez (he's not as big as I thought but still a dangerous man!), photographed Jeri Lee's beautiful body of art (or I tried!), and captured some moments from the performances.

As you can see, I'm a n00b at using photoshop but I'm trying to learn new tricks.. For now, enjoy!

Deuces.

Day 127: Dub Car Show in LA - The Game, Lupe Fiasco, & more: Live Videos (Events)

- Tickets are not on sale FYI...

3-27-11 (Los Angeles, CA): This past Sunday me and my friend went to check out the Dub Car Show not for the exotic cars, beautiful models, sik custom rides, & more gorgeous models, but for the LIVE PERFORMANCES!!

It was a pretty awesome line-up with a long list of rappers including DJ Quik, Nipsey Hussle, Waka Flocka Flame, Layzie Bone, and others, but I was really just looking forward to seeing The Game & Lupe Fiasco!! 

I gotta say each performance was a bit short & the audio/set-up wasn't that great, but being that I'm a big music enthusiast I still enjoyed seeing my favorite artists up there. Here are some videos I took of the main performances:


- The GAAAAME! G-UNOT!


- Waka Flocka started going into the crowd cuz he's one hoOod @$$ ngga! Not sure what he's rappin tho..


- Two of my favorite classics by Lupe Fiasco: "Hip-Hop Saved My Life" & "Kick Push" !!

I got a few more videos of the live performances by The Game & Lupe Fiasco on my Youtube Channel right here: DaysofJ28 chekkit! =D

One last thing, I just gotta give a shout-out to my homie Rex4000 for hookin me up to this event. If it wasn't free then I probably wouldn't have came, so mad props yo!

Check out his blog and the LA Lifestyle blog he started: Uncvr.

Day 126: It's Thursday! Music Video by Conan O'Brien - HILARIOUS!

Conan O'Brien's always knows how to put a funny spin to current events going on! =D

If you haven't heard already, this Rebecca Black girl is gaining so much popularity for a horrible song & music video she came up with called "Friday" (Try to refrain from clicking that; I'm linking it up to show how funny Conan's parody is).

I urge everyone & their mama's not to support her and let this "Rebecca Black phase" die out quick. I'm not trying to be mean, I'm being real. I'm a big music fanatic and this isn't music.

Thursday ftw! =)

Day 125: 3D Adidas Display/Show - Really Cool!! (Video)

- How dope is that?!

Since Adidas started their "Adidas is all in" campaign, it's been getting a really good buzz lately and has expanded internationally as well.

I'm not sure where this video took place but as soon as I saw this 3D display/show, I was like DAAAAM that's pretty f-'ing awesome! I really like how well the graphics & the action turned out from the beginning to end, and the way they were able to make it look so real using a building as the canvas. Very cool.

Hmmm, Nike or Adidas? Well, I'm caught in between both brands right now and feel Adidas is leveling out the playing field these days. Where does your brand loyalty lie? =X

Day 124: Dwyane Wade & Lebron James on the Kiss Cam! (Video)

This is kinda funny yo. It's a really short clip, and you'll see real briefly as the announcer is talking that they put the Kiss Cam on Dwyane Wade & Lebron James. As soon as that happens, Lebron covers his head trying to hide from it. They could have at least done something funny...

I wonder what Chris Bosh was thinking when he saw this.. he probably felt left out & put on the sadface =(

Aww, poor Bosh...

Day 123: The New Look for Adidas ft. Derrick Rose, Katy Perry, B.o.B. & More

I've been seeing this cool "Adidas is all in" campaign going on a lot recently, and I just want to share this new commercial they've unveiled. It's a very motivating & uplifting commercial featuring some of their top athletes & musical artists such as Derrick Rose, Katy Perry, B.o.B., and more.

I really like how they tie in music & sports together, and I can see why because being a professional athlete or a widely-known musician require so much hard work if you want to compete with the best and stay on top of the game.

I'm starting to like where Adidas is heading as a brand right now. I'm all in.

Good lookin Shimp-Dizzle for showing me this one =)

TGIF!

Day 122: I think I found Deron Williams' new #1 Fan! (Video)

Ohh maaan, this clip is funny! =)

Towards the final seconds of the Nets vs Celtics game, Deron Williams (one of my fav PG's) does a sik crossover to a 3pt shot & makes it drop in so effortlessly, and apparently one fan gets stunned out of his mind as soon as he sees that. haha!

I bet he's gonna get a Deron Williams jersey after that.. he just has to now! LOL

Japan Earthquake & Tsunami Relief Efforts - Please Help Donate!

I just want take a step away from my blog and say how very saddened I am about the devastation that has happened/is happening in Japan right now =(

I've seen so many pictures & videos of the massive disaster that I want to help in any way I can because it's very unfortunate for this to happen to anyone. And another thing too, people over there are currently facing a potential nuclear threat so if you think you have it bad then think again..

There are several ways to help, so please take the time to put in a donation to your preferred Relief Organization. Here are a few options:

- American Red Cross
- You can also text REDCROSS to 90999 for a $10 donation
- Here's another link I found with a list of different organizations via Yahoo.

If you're like me and not making that much income then you gotta think about the situation like this: If a natural disaster of this proportion happened in your area, wouldn't you like some help?

I just donated $10 to the Red Cross, and I really hope everyone can help contribute as well. The reason I am so passionate to help is because I've visited Japan before, and it's such a beautiful country with the nicest people you'll ever meet. I also have a homie living there, so I feel obligated & connected to help.

Truely, truely a tragic event...

Day 121: A Really Cool Video-Hacking Gadget (Video)

I just saw this video from a friend yesterday, and wanted to relay it for everyone else who hasn't seen this already. Pretty awesome, right?

I gotta say this guy has a really cool gadget, and it would be hella fun to mess around with this & play some  random video on any sort of video billboard. Something like this. haha!

Props to my homie Doanut for showing me this one =)

Day 120: Chris Brown - Look At Me Now ft. Lil Wayne & Busta Rhymes (Music Video)

- Alt Audio Link

"I get what you get in ten years, in two days..." - Chris Brown

Ok, I'm not a big fan of Chris Brown but as soon as I kept hearing this song more & more it just started to grow on me. With that, I just want to say one thing about this song tho.. Busta Rhymes comes out with some fire, and the party-side of me is diggin this funky beat ;)

For those who care, this song will be featured on Chris Brown's upcoming album called F.A.M.E., set to be released this Friday, 3/18.

Fresher than a m-f#cka!

Day 119: Zach Galifianakis with his own Music Video + Hangover 2 teaser

.. wait til I get my money right.

This is Zach Galifianakis's version of his own music video for the song "Can't Tell Me Nothing" by Kanye West. He is so freakin hilarious!

On a similar note, check out the teaser trailer for the upcoming movie he's going to be in: The Hangover Part II scheduled to come out on May 26th. I can't wait to see this one!



Props to my homie Dex for showing me the funny music video. =)

Day 118: "Winning" for Men by Charlie Sheen - Jimmy Fallon skit (Video)

- Saw it here first: www.hulu.com

I just saw this funny skit yesterday and wanted to share it with everyone because if it can make me laugh then I'm sure ya'll will find it entertaining too. I gotta say tho, Jimmy Fallon does a really good Charlie Sheen impression and looks just like him, haha!

If you're like me then you must be tired of hearing about Charlie Sheen since he's all over the news, web, radio, and talk show jokes 24/7 (seriously 24/7!). Just like Jersey Shores, it's dumb entertainment and people love watching/talking/hearing about it, so all this Charlie Sheen stuff has grown on me.

This will be my first & last post about Charlie Sheen (I hope..), so I want to end this with a funny video compilation of Charlie Sheen's "Winning" comments:



Duh, WINNING! =D

Day 116: New Tech Comes & Goes Fast! - Funny Best Buy Commercial (Video)

- It's the TRUTH!

Check out the commercial above, and tell me if you would have a similar reaction with new technology & the rate something newer comes out:

- D00d seriously WTF?! I just got one a few months ago!
- Should I get one now or wait for a newer one???
- I just want to break the one I have now.. I hate upgrading! >:O

If you've made any of these comments before then I feel your pain!

I've been seeing this Best Buy commercial on a lot of networks lately, and it really does make good sense of how newer technology is coming out quicker & quicker these days. Just yesterday, Apple announced their release of the iPad 2 after they had released the original iPad in April 2010. Who knows, we may see an iPad 3 come out this Fall!

Anyways, I'm in a dilemma right now and deciding if I should get the Verizon iPhone now or wait until a newer one comes out. F- it, I'm probably going to get one real soon but I know I might kick myself in the butt in a few months...

Good creative ad btw.

Day 115: Jimmy Kimmel's new workout - Hottie Body Hump Club (Video)

At first I thought this was another dumb skit by Jimmy Kimmel, but as soon as I saw all the "hotties" featured in this skit then I found it to be.. DUMB STILL! All I gotta say is "Jimmy K" is one lucky mofo to be able to gather all these beautiful actresses together, so on that note it makes it worth watching ;)

Just to name-drop a few of the lovely ladies: Scarlett Johansson, Minka Kelly, & Eva Longoria play a part in this skit. I'm not gonna say any more names (yes, there are more!), so check out Jimmy K's new workout video to see the rest of the "hotties"

Ok, but seriously don't get mad at me if you feel stupid after this. Just watch this if you need to kill time or are SUPER-bored.
