As if that $95 million for that 5-year extension with the Chicago Bulls wasn’t enough….
According to Marc Stein of Espn.com, the NBA MVP is nearing an agreement with Adidas on a ‘lifetime’ contract that will potentially pay out over $250 million over a span of 10 years.
If Adidas decided to move forward , this endorsement deal will make Rose the highest paid sneaker endorser in history; almost tripling Lebron James’ $90 Million Nike deal back in 2003.
Episode 7 of Love and Hip Hop has LOTS of surprises in store. Looks like VH1 is trying to take 2011 out with a bang.
Among the strangely surprising things we see in this clip, the most oddly disturbing scene is the sit down between Mama Jones and Chrissy. I mean, come on, really??? Mama Jones is cooking for Chrissy??? WTF is going on here?? *cue Twilight Zone music*.
Well, I guess that whole “Yeezy World Peace” is more than just Kanye’s new DJ name, cuz that’s the only way I can describe these strange happenings. There is definitely a change of tide in this episode that’ll have you looking at all of these characters with a side eye.
But enough of my yapping…check it out for yourself:
Shout out to Da Internz for hitting Top 10 on Billboards Hot-100 this week!!!!
Let me prelude this post by saying, as a native Chicagoan, I feel honored and obligated to give props to my city’s own move makers in the industry. Its just how we do things around here *contrary to popular belief*
For those of you who are NOT familiar with those dudes up there in the picture, let me familiarize you. These guys are the amazingly talented duo of super producers, DA INTERNZ.
Their faces might not be familiar. But, I can bet a grand that you’ve caught yourself shaking you A$$ to one or more of their hits.
Here’s a peek at their chart topping hit:
Oh…and here’s another soon-to-be chart topper:
One more for the road:
I rest my case and I want my money.
Now… YOU may just be getting acquainted, but as you can see, this Chicago bred and Grammy nominated duo is no where NEAR new to the game. They’ve produced hits for quite a few of your favorite artist.
Who? You ask. Well lets see….
Estelle, John Legend, Robin Thicke, Latoya Luckett, Jeremiah,Justin Beiber *Yea. Him too. Close your mouth*, just to name a few.
Keep an eye out for this team of super producers. *You’ll know its them when you hear the “bell* I’m sure there is MUCH MUCH more in store.
Looks like the net has caught wind of the two former love birds, Chris Brown and Rihanna, doing a lil’ undercover sub-tweeting and professing their love for one another. This how the supposed sub-tweet confession session went down:
Everyone’s assuming that these two are subliminally ”speaking” to one another. But can we really be sure?? . For all we know, he could’ve been talking to current boo-thang Karrueche Tran. Afterall…that IS his girlfriend.
I know..I know. I don’t believe it either. But they have pics of them holding hands so it MUST be real.See..look:
Anyway. I’m not sure I’m completely convinced about this Rihanna/Brezzy fiasco. But I can’t say that it isn’t believable that the two still have the hots for each other. Or at least Rihanna still has the hots for him. Just look at the signs….
Exhibit A: The infamous Chris-Brown doppelgänger in her ” We Found Love Video”:
Exhibit B: Just a few weeks ago, Rihanna was caught sub-tweeting Chris’s mom. Remember this:
Shall I continue??? *actually, I would. But that’s all I got for now *
I think most of us believe the two would still be together had it not been for all of the media pressure for Rihanna to be a role model for young women and move on. Really, what was she supposed to do? Millions of young women look up to her. Definitely would’ve been career suicide to stay.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that I think she should’ve stayed. And, I’m definitely not an advocate of domestic violence. But, in the words of Tee -Tee from The Game, “The heart wants what the heart wants”. What we all know from experience is that young love is powerful and that FIRST love can be eternal. *took me years to get over mine. Glad that’s over tho. Whew* So its quite possible that these two are still very much in love with one another.
The bigger concern would be whether or not its HEALTHY for the two to actually be together. But is that REALLY our concern? Besides, they’ve grown a lot. Maybe things would be different a second time around???
Well. *sigh* Unless they publicly declare a reunion. We may never know. But we can damn sure speculate. Can’t we??
What are YOUR thoughts? Should Rihanna and Chris Brown reunite??
