WANTED.

wanted. probably the best summer blockbuster thus far of the summer of '08, realize it. the special effects are great, whether it topps the matrix or not is questionable but the matrix set a new standard of effects in movies so determine for yourself; however, the plot is twisted and quite original, and angelina jolie is bad. like let me dropp to my knees bad, in this movie. a simple synopsis: nerdy, whack guy (your typical slacker) is put on by a group of legendary assassins to become top-notch and a fierce power mover since he is told his alleged father was killed by some awry yo who has betrayed these group of assassins. that's all i'm saying because i don't want to spoil it for the public, but the movie is superb and it's worth your $10, depending on where you see it at.

other summer blockbusters to look for:

• batman (rip heath)
• hancock
• wall-e (better than toy story?)

yeezy's on fire

all year i have wondered "where is the good music?" and i can honestly say that kanye has brought the fire back into hip-hop in this short time frame. we lived in the world of crank this-and-that, yahhing various tricks, and getting silly, but then kanye puts out, remixes, and features the best music i have heard in all of '08. the guy is undeniably hotter than fire especially with the glow in the dark tour he just had in the area, the stories i am hearing about it makes me quite upset because i passed it up...however, yeezy's champion-like swag makes him that much more superb in my book, he's something like a role model to me (right after will smith and pharrell).

good grief will someone wipe this man down?

i believed that hip-hop was truly dead but with the combined forces of hip-hop elites including kanye, pharrell, weezy, and lupe as well as the plethora of rising artists... hip-hop can be revived. summer hasn't even began and i'm excited n*e*r*d's album is coming, weezy's will be eargasmic and i see that celebrities are craving each other (congrats to chris brown and rihanna, and what's really good with mariah and nick?). summer is just something you gotta love and kanye has me boosted for it.

btw check this man's blog, i'm not even sure if he really writes on it but its swaggerific
