Nike Air Griffey Max 1 (Retro)

Although pictures have been floating around for awhile, some new images surfaced of the Nike Air Griffey Max 1 scheduled to release as a retro this coming April. Officially the first Griffey model baring his name, the kicks were one of Nike’s more popular sneakers in the 90’s (certainly my favorite). Propelling the Griffey name into a legendary sneaker lineup, the kicks were somewhat comparable to that of Penny Hardaway in nostalgic stature, although both of their careers were unfortunately slowed down by injuries. In a classic Mariner’s colorway, the cross trainers will be available at Nike urban accounts beginning April 2009 with a retail price of $140 USD.

R.I.P. "B. King"


Chicago Police are hoping to review security tape from a West Loop club to figure out what led to a shooting that left a self-employed music producer dead and another man wounded.
Bryan King, of the 9700 block of South University, was shot inside Transit Nightclub at 1431 W. Lake St. about 2:30 a.m., police said. A second man also was shot.
King, 28, was a music producer who worked mostly with rap artists, said his mother, Connie Griffin-King. “He was loved by his family,’’ Griffin-King, 53, said of her only son.
Police are not sure yet what led to the shooting, but witnesses said King had an altercation with someone before the shooting.
Griffin-King said her son owned his own music production company — and learned the business through his family, which includes many members working in the entertainment industry. Griffin-King said she wrote R & B songs for artists in the 1980s and her sister is a casting agent who has worked on several Chicago films.
Bryan King was going to move to Atlanta Monday to continue pursuing his music career there, she said. He was out with friends Thursday night. She was not sure what led to the shooting.
“I know there was an argument,’’ she said. “I don’t know who with or about what. They heard shots and he had fallen.’’
The shooting happened on a block that is home to many clubs that host promoted — and therefore crowded — parties. The first homicide of the year was around the corner near Lake and Green outside another club.

Serena Williams wins Australian Open for 10th Grand Slam title

Serena Williams routed Dinara Safina 6-0, 6-3 today to win the Australian Open - her 10th Grand Slam title - and return to the No. 1 ranking.
It was total domination for the second-seeded Williams, who moved fluidly on the court and looked at ease in winning back-to-back majors, including the U.S. Open title in September.
"I absolutely, clearly, love playing here," the 27-year-old Williams said. "You guys root for me so much. I don't get that everywhere. So thank you so much."

Soulja Boy Robbery: "They Put An AK to My Homeboy"s Cranium!"

After reports of Soulja Boy"s Atlanta house being robbed hit the net earlier this month the teen rapper has stayed quiet, until now. During an interview with Los Angeles-based radio personality Big Boy, SB broke his silence. "Basically I was at my crib and I had my album release party at my club that night," he said on Friday"s (Jan. 23) show. "I got back to my house at around 3 in the morning and I was in the studio recording. So two of my homeboys was in the living room and Me and Arab we was in the studio recording. And somebody kicked in the door." "One dude ran in put the AK""to my homeboy head, put him on the floor," he continued. "The other two ran in " my homeboy jumped in the other room " so the other two dudes ran back so I peeped in the door and they running through my house with Ks and pistols " so I ducked back. I really can"t dwell on what happened after that, but it was a messed up situation [and] I"m glad everyone made it out alive." As to why this is the first time SB is speaking on the incident, the teen rapper said it was because he wanted to protect his younger fans. "I really don"t want to dwell on the entire situation because of my career - my music is pointed towards the kids and I don"t wanna give them that bad image on what actually went down."

Nas & Kelis Expecting Their First Child Together

According to MTV:

Hip-hop star Nas and his wife, singer Kelis, are expecting their first child together, Us Weekly reported Wednesday (January 14).

A source reportedly told Us that the "Milkshake" singer is in her first trimester. "It's all they are talking about," the source told the magazine. "She is carrying hip-hop royalty! They are so excited." The source said mother-to-be Kelis already has a baby bump.

Nas has a daughter, Destiny, from a previous relationship.

The couple wed in January 2005 after a two-year courtship. The New York natives were married in Atlanta, where they keep a home. Nas' brother, Braveheart member Jungle, served as the best man.

The pair raised eyebrows on the 2008 Grammy Awards red carpet. The rapper was in the midst of promoting his project, then titled N---er and later released as an untitled album, and his wife showed her support by wearing a jacket adorned with the racial epithet.

Nas said their personal life isn't nearly as attention-grabbing. The two were set to appear in an MTV reality show about their life together, but the introverted rapper put the kibosh on the project before it could air. Nas cited privacy concerns, in addition to his marriage just being a normal relationship. He called their lives "boring" and said the only reality he was comfortable with was his music.

At press time, representatives for Nas and Kelis had no comment about the reported pregnancy.

Congrats to the Jones'
