Show was crazy. Wale and Black Thought did their joint fromt the new album in front of an over-capacity crowd at the Key Club on Sunset for The Roots 5th Annual twas the night before Grammys jam session.
Wale and Tarik did their thing but we had to bounce to the Rihanna/Ne-Yo party over at 86 in Hollywood. Our girl Jenn Laskey of Red Light Promotions took care of us despite the fact that the fire marshal was itching to shut it down. The party didn’t start until midnight. We got there around 1:45 and when we left around 2:30, the party was still cracking like it was 11PM. Inside: Jay Z, Solange Knowles, Ne-Yo, Rihanna, Evander Holyfield, Chris Brown, Nick Cannon, me and Wale lol
More pics from The Roots to come.

Grammys tomorrow. Get sick.
Last night was Mark Ronson’s Grammy party at the Roosevelt Hotel. Kenna performed, Alex Greenwald performed, Mark DJ’d, I performed. Nas was there. Sway was there. And a lot of bosses.
The LRG crew was there in full effect.
from L-R (to G lol): Jonas, KD, Ben, myself
Wale x Weisman=So twisted

Got way too sick, picked up a lot of heat
I read something about these
Side bar: How sick is it that my manager (A) has these shoes, (B) has a display case in his living room to house them?
I could totally see Omar having one of these

Yeah, it’s no Spice Weasel, but we’re pretty sure this product concept would feel right at home in an episode of Futurama. That’s right kids, it’s the spice gun — a handy device which would allow you to gun down your food in cold-blooded flavor. To use this killer, you’d lock and load the barrel with a selection of your deadliest spices, then simply spin it — Dirty Harry style — to switch up ammo. We could go on all day with clever turns of phrase describing how much “kick” this thing has, suggestions that you load it up with radish-piercing bullets, and cautionary messages like, “Never point the spice gun at a steak unless you intend to season it,” but we’ll spare you the pain. Oh, whoops.

Let’s break it down TV junkie. Sony’s new ¥38,000 (about $355) XDV-D500 features a 3-inch, 432 x 240 pixel resolution display with 160-degree viewing angle, 500:1 contrast, and a battery capable of about 8-hours of TV reception. It can even record up to 10 hours of scheduled programming to 2GB of internal memory. The itty bittier XDV-G200 brings a 2-inch LCD to the show, AM/FM radio too, then ditches the EPG and recording function. This is Japan mind you, so these sets receive digital 1Seg TV — in other words you can kiss your import fantasies goodbye.
I love TOP GEAR

I am not one for mashups but this is pretty ridiculous. Never heard of DJ Earworm but he is a DJ out of San Fran
This mashup of Paul Simon and Django Reinhardt is pretty on point (right click and save as)
