Now this is what you call a random lineup: Termanology, Royce da 5′9″, Akrobatik (of The Perceptionists), Crooked I, and Consequence.

“187″ is taken from Nyce’s G-Unit/Infamous debut 38 to the Head. Apparently he has an affinity for numbers.

The NBA All-Star starters were announced last night. The only thing worth noting on the lineup is that the West will demolish the East again this year. It’s not even a question, especially with A.I. now on this side of the coast. Then again, the East now has a monster in K.G.

Take a look at this year’s starting lineups and pick your poison.

Mr. Johnson – My Dedication

Today marks the 1st anniversary of Disco D’s death. During his last month in New York, Disco created a track for Nas & Jay-Z, but Def Jam didn’t buy it because of clearance issues. So, Disco gave the joint to longtome friend Mr. Johnson, who decided to rhyme over the track in his honor.

Question is, if Mr. Johnson wrote this song on the eve of Disco’s death, how did he know what was about to happen?

Rest in power, Disco.

In case you haven’t heard, Lil’ Wayne and his Adam’s apple were arrested today by the DEA.

The 25-year-old faces charges of possession of dangerous drugs, narcotics and drug paraphernalia.

Bratcher said Carter’s bus was stopped about 11:30 p.m. Tuesday at a Border Patrol checkpoint near Dateland, Ariz., 120 kilometres east of Yuma.

Apparently, they found copious amounts of marijuana, cocaine, and other drugs in Weezy’s tour bus and took him in.
