Oh man, whoever made this..brilliant!
What's Got The Kick Universe On Freeze..
These?? Seems like the hype is more around the name (Spacejams..Marketing strategy ftw!) than the shoes themselves..
Umm..yeah, I think I'll pass..
KanYe's Back!
You can't understand how hyped I am right now..no more Auto Tune..and atleast he's being truthful..
“I sold my soul to the devil, I know it was a crappy deal/ He’s a king with a few toys like a Happy Meal”
This game's coming out pretty soon, and I'm HYPED! As long as I can get my XBOX updated in time..yeah, it's been around a year since I did that..smh..anyways, here's a trailer!
Bow Wow Back?
Since maybe..2002, this the first track I'm feelin' from Bow Wow! he went hard on this, for realll!
Jay Sean x Mac Maine Freestyle
This what it's all about! Crazy to see how well Jay Sean's doing, hopefully 'Karmania' might be up there one day..
Inspiration..
To think this man was a nobody 2 years ago..now 23 years old with no album, but 2 Grammy nominations under his belt..fate takes you places you can only dream of, and safe to say nobody saw this coming. Inspiring..
Jay - Z..End.
" No, I'm Not A Christian Though I Believe In God, But I Don't Believe In The Devil, My Beliefs Are Odd " - Jay Z - 9/11 Freestyle...hmm...I might be super late on this, but this is where I STOP listening to Jay Z. The lyrics speak for themselves..he thinks he's God..wow..
Paranormal Activity..
Well, let's say it didn't exactly live up to the hype..I mean, for all the "horrific" buzz it had, it didn't really seem to scare me and the mans too much at 3 a.m..maybe cuz it was in Spanish! Fail.

Crazy joint off his mixtape, this type of music that actually has serious subject matter is what hip hop needs more of..
Bangs: Radio Caller Interview
Ohh mann, this shit cracked me up! Finally, he may realise how bad his song really was..hopefully..last thing we need is for him to turn into the new Soulja Boy -_-
Drake Performance in Jacksonville
Haha, crazy that his dad came out..but performing 'Every Girl' in front of him? If I ever did..the consequences..don't wanna imagine it!
This..
is what I haven't done in YEARS! Now, I don't want to sound like the "cliche" artist, saying I'm working 24/7 in the studio, making money,the next big thing, etcetera etcetera, cuz that's just NOT me. Everything I convey through my music, words, blogs, whatever, it's all 110% real from my perspective and viewpoint, so no false alarming here. In reality though, I really do have an amazing opportunity to make some timeless music that could progressively evolve into several amazing things in the future..yet, I'm lazing off..so THIS blog is my reminder..from this day forward, loafting must NOT be an option, and that's that..had to get it off my mind, peace and love.
Charles Hamilton Making His Comeback! FRESH!
Finally! After disappearing from the scene for a good minute, due to getting dropped from his label and having his debut album shelved, it seems like he's ready to step back in the scene. He's extremely talented, and I'm a huge fan, so he's more than welcome!
Classified Under..Depression?
It's been like a 100 years...ok, more like a week, but I haven't played COD: Modern Warfare 2 yet! I'm not much of a gamer..matter of fact, I might hit up the XBOX for 15 minute sessions every 3 days..but all I've been hearing of this game so far is that IT's THE SHIT! Which leads me to the question..what am I doin' with my life? God knows..
2012 : Eye Opening!
Well, just returned from this movie, and I've got to say, compared to the reviews I read..it exceeded my expectations by far! They somehow managed to cram a plot into the movie, which was great, but aside from that, the breathtaking visuals and direction..it really gets you to thinking! What if we're in that position in approximately 2 and a half years(which is extremely short, mind you..) will we be able to handle the tribulations, or just give in? Anyways, this movie's definitely worth a check out next time you hit the theatres! I'm out for now, but check the trailer below..Peacee!
Lupe Surprises at Jay Z Concert with NERD!
Well, this was amazing! I really enjoyed Lupe's performance, as I always do, exceptt for the end..where he threw up the ROC sign..now I know I might seem paranoid, but I'm completely ANTI-ILLUMINATI(if the theories are true, anyways..), and here's to hoping he threw it up for the sake of the fans and nothing more..anyways, enjoy!
KanYe's back on it!
This is some crazy ish right heree, it's off Diddy's new album, so check it out!
" The day that you play me be the same day MTV play videos, That was a lil' joke, Voila, Praises due to the most high, Allah, Praises due to the most fly, Prada, baby I'm magic, Ta-da " - Kanye West
Haven't blogged in a minute..
I NEED a job. like, in all honesty, I REQUIRE a job if I have any inclinations towards finishing this project I haven't started yet. The biggest conflict is, I've gone out and gotten everything set up, and now need to match with the finances. God help me..anyways, nothing else is new, other than school and such!
Oh yeah..SOTD: Life's A Bitch - Nas ft. AZ
Song Of The Day: Wale - 90210
This song really hit it off for me, along with a couple others..for the rest of the album..meh, could've been better, or maybe I'm just too critical..anyways, check it out! Off Wale's debut album "Attention Deficit"..
Swollen Members ft. Tech N9ne & Tre Nyce - Bollywood Chick
Not really interested in nor concerned for either of these artists, but this song..you already know what it is!
New Lupe Mixtape: November 25th!
Mann, my life just got SO MUCH BETTER! Being an avid Lupe fan..his new mixtape drops this month, right before his album, and I can tell they'll both be EPIC! Check out the vid, drops a little freestyle on "Forever" too, dig it?
SOTD: Lupe Fiasco - Put You On Game
This joint is so deep..you have to take in every word to understand the mere essence of it. He discusses a lot of situations through one song without a hook(go figure..), like the Devil, Illuminati, how subliminally messages are plugged into rap and music, and how it basically controls the entire world. It's amazing, off " The Cool".
I <3 Keri Hilson :)
I know this is quite a random post..but I'm just letting y'all know! Like, aside from her.."assets", she's extremely talented and hardworking, especially how she snuck into the industry out of nowhere and still managed to creep up with the likes of Rihanna(ew), Beyonce(ugh), etc. Respect paid where respect is due!
SOTD Pt. II : XV - Rabbit Hole
This song's DOPE, metaphorically, conceptually..honestly! It's about time more dudes like XV blew into the industry..
Song Of The Day: Speed Of Sound - Mike Posner ft. Big Sean
So from today, I'm going to randomly post a song everyday, or every other, which I find suitable for the day. To start it off, here's the debut:

Mixtape, mixtape, mixtape..
So, as of late, I've really been taking in a lot of mixtapes, contemplating how mine should be crafted. What I mean to say is that, I'm not really "mimicking" any mixtape, but looking for inspiration from several others that can help me craft the "perfect" one. Also, I'm currently working on one track with a "somebody" you might have seen on TV..NY..BET..'nuff said for now, you'll know soon! And yeah, got atleast 14 tracks down right now for this mixtape, aiming for atleast 21! Here goes nothing..or everything..

Acer Aspire One - Bios Flash Black Screen
MAYDAY!..shiiiet, hugee problem I'm having. So, my brand new..20 day old netbook decides to have a little random problem..out of nowhere, with atleast 30 of my songs stored on that shit..with no backups..and here I am..struggling to fix it..to no avail! I found the process out, but it's not working for some reason; here it is though for those of you with the same problem:
The AA1 has a built-in BIOS recovery routine, making it possible to flash the BIOS even if the system doesn't boot anymore. It's only meant for emergencies and may void your warranty, so use at your own risk.
Follow every step carefully!
First format an USB stick with FAT.
Download the latest BIOS, and put both FLASHIT.EXE and the BIOS file in the root directory of the stick. Rename the BIOS file to ZG5IA32.FD, that's important. Do not remove the USB stick.
Turn the AA1 off, make sure both battery and AC adapter are connected. Press Fn+Esc, keep it pressed and press the power button to turn the AA1 on. Release Fn+Esc after a few seconds, the power button will be blinking. Press the power button once. The AA1 will now initiate the BIOS flash, do not interrupt it under any circumstances. After a while the power button will stop blinking, and the AA1 will reboot shortly after. Wait patiently.
The BIOS has been flashed and all settings reset to default.
If for some reason you made a mistake during the procedure and it doesn't reboot by itself wait 5 minutes before turning it off, just to be safe that it isn't still flashing the BIOS.
For the record, these shoes are SIIIICKKK!..with a bit more emphasis on that..for real, rock these shoes, and you're a real mahfucka..high cuts or low cuts..red, black or white..whatever, gonna cop these joints, sonner than later..peace!
Renovation and shiiettt!?!
I BEEN busy for a good minute..we're finally moving out of tha block, lived here for 7 years, but s'all good, just a bit down and it's the new crib! Voila! Room's gonna be DOPE! Studio's gonna be DOPE! Life's gonna be..dope! Anyways, had to throw a bit blogging in, since my last 100 sumthin' posts have been nothing but tracks, haha, check this ish out anyways, crazyyy collabo!

Soulja Boy "What They Ask For" Twitter Contest
So, Soulja Boy put up a contest on twitter where he posts his song, and asked us to record a verse, where he picks the best one..well I recorded mine, now comment and subscribe! Hopefully, I win!
Illuminati, Day Of Judgement, New World Order
I've been researching and discussing this topic day in and day out for a while now, to the point, I'm too tired to really discuss it on here. Basically, in a summative fashion, the entire media and world are currently being run by the Illuminati, and signs are clearly displayed everywhere, if you know where to look. YouTube itself will provide thousands of possible explanations for it. One recommendation of mine is this documentary, which has been banned everywhere due to it's potential "truth" factor. When I fully research into this, I will consistently post detailed and in depth articles, but for now, make sure to check this out!

Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince Review(Mini)
Well,I just returned from the midnight premiere showing of Harry Potter, and let me tell you, the hype was alive as soon as we reached the theatre, seeing the humongous line outside. Anyways, from the tip of the movie starting, everything was just done beautifully, ranging from the acting to the art direction. There's a lot more dark material in this, but mixed with a LOT more humour, so overall it's perfect. They managed to cram a lot from the book into this movie, compared to the previous movies, which is a great accomplishment. The scene where they're getting the Horcrux from the cave was amazing, with all the intensity and pressure building up. The only part I felt could've been done MUCH better was the ending,honestly, which they made just too subtle. But overall, amazing movie in my opinion. 10/10!
Acer Aspire One 10.1"
So I just grabbed a new laptop/netbook, and I've got to say,overall it's an amazing piece of technology. Anyhow, I'm using it MUCH more than my regular computer, since the fact that it's as big as an average textbook is pretty attracting! 10.1" screen, 1GB RAM, 160GB HD..this one's a keeper! =)
Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince..WEDNESDAY!
Soo after a push almost a YEAR ahead(ok..exageration..), it's finally set to release, and even though I know I'll be dissappointed, who really cares? Hopefully I can reach the first show..
Brand New Drake Songs!
So, apparently Drake felt his buzz simmering down a bit..henceforth leading him to dropping a shitload of songs in one day! My preferable favourites are Winner and Juice, but you should check them all out!
Enjoy! My new tracks are coming soon too, check them out at:

Slumdog Millionaire Steals The Show At Golden Globe Awards in L.A.
Wow, and just after my review! Who knew such a small British movie would explode onto such a huge platform!? Slumdog Millionaire stole the show, winning all 4 awards that it was nominated for - Best Movie, Best Original Score, Best Director and Best Screenplay! Way to go Danny Boyle, you've definitely created a masterpiece! Now it's only time until the Oscar's get here...
Movie Review: Slumdog Millionaire
"Wow...wow...wow..."..That's all I was muttering as I watched this movie. Each moment, each direction, each dialogue, left nothing more possible to be desired. It was just too perfect, the way everything was executed. I don't even have to provide a basis of the movie, instead just tell you to go watch it, but I will anyways.
It's about a young contestant, Jamal Malik(played by Dev Patel),who goes on the Indian version of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire", where the only reason he participates is not for the money, but to take a wild chance and see if his childhood sweetheart notices him on the show. Will they ever be reunited? Now this sounds extremely generic, but actually, each question leads back to his childhood, and how life taught him so much more than an education could, and shows everything he experienced from the dirty ghetto's of Mumbai, to hustling by just himself and his brother to survive alone. That's when they meet Latika(played by Frieda Pinto), and Jamal instantly falls in love with her. But the situation gets twisted, and his older brother Salim abandons him, and sleeps with her, splitting the three of them up up until he gets on the show.
This is the basic set up of the movie, but as you watch them grow up, and witness the result of every question, etc. etc. you'll just end up smiling, wondering why you hadn't seen this movie earlier? According to Rotten Tomatoes, the web's top movie rating site, it's the highest rated movie currently in theatres. So what're you waiting for?? GO SEE IT!! :D
CES 2009 Coverage
Well, here we are once again, the heavenly galore for gadget geeks and nano nerds alike! Taking place in Las Vegas, Nevada, the showcasing up to this point has been nothing short of outstanding! There have been a substantial amount of different electronics under different categories, ranging from mp3's, cell phones, etc. to Plasma screens, computers, and more! Just to make the wow-factor a little easier, I'm going to list for you my top 10 I've seen of this event up to date:
10.) LG Watch Phone: Ok, I know what you're thinking! I must be a complete idiot for placing this at number 10, but consider my opinion for a second. This is old, old technology. I mean literally, I've been seeing watch phones from the Chinese market since about 2-3 years ago, and to finally hit a North American company now, it just seems a little overdue, and the whole excitement of this technology has worn off. I just don't feel it was a good decision to unveil it here, since most people have also probably seen it elsewhere. We'll see how it does...
9.) Portable Panasonic Blu-Ray Player: Well, this should've been higher, but you'll later see why it ended up down here. I think it's great, that Blu Ray is now the modern format that everyone's watching movies on, and to take the next step into portable viewing is great. It's really making the push to soon be the commonly used format, and it'd be amazing just to watch movies in high def clarity, on a 7 inch screen!
8.) Kodak HD Camcorder: Well, not like we haven't seen enough of these around, with plenty of them churning into the market from different companies. But it's the price factor and portability that's REALLY great! It carries a 2 inch screen, and records at 60 fps. It'll soon be in the market for only $150, which is a great price.
7.) D-Link USB Powered Monitor: For those computer multi taskers, who just can't handle cramming all their open software's in one task bar, worry no more! This alternate 7 inch screen, will enable you to use two screens at once, through a single computer. So half your apps. can be open in one window, and half in the other, or whichever way preferred. It's also extremely portable, which is great.
6.) Lenovo PC: 21.5 inch screen. 4GB RAM. 1TB Hard Drive. Blu Ray, TV Tuner, Built in Subwoofer, MOTION SENSING!! BELOW $1000!? AHHH!! LOL, don't worry, I'm ok. But just to think, all those features stuffed into a single computer(with a sexy LCD monitor, mind you) and new motion sensing technology to control it, at such a great price, I think it's beautiful!
5.) We are officially moving into the portable age! With SD cards on the verge of release, now holding up to 2TB, WHO NEEDS A HARD DRIVE? I mean, literally, just 2 years ago, holding 1GB on a memory stick was mind blowing, and now to thing, 2,000 GB?? I must be in tech heaven...
4.) Mattel's Mindflex: Hey, how about we play a little game? Hope you're not mentally exhausted, because this will definitely make you! Mindflex, a new ping pong genre game where you have to use your mind to control a ball, mentally, and make it fly through hoops, rings, etc. It's amazing how far technology has really come, where you don't even need your hands to control a game! This would be an amazing gift if you have kids, or for the kid in yourself!
3.) Pharos Traveller Phone: Eyy iPhone, better keep your guard up, because here's a phone that's up for a challenge! Used to be a GPS company, it's now broken into the cell phone market, and along with outsanding GPS capabilities, it uses Windows Mobile 6.1 OS, contains a 3 mp camera, and offers GPS for only $50 a year, which is great if you're a constant "traveller".
2.) Palm Pre: Now, the iPhone REALLY needs to be careful! The new Palm Pre, which has been hyped up since the second it was unveiled at CES, might just be the competition to knock the iPhone off the throne! It's touch screen, with a slide out keyboard, and runs their custom OS, WebOS. It has GPS, 8GB of internal storage, and is obviously a touch screen. Not a lot has been revealed yet, but enough has been disclosed to let consumer's know that PALM is officially back in the cell game.
1.) Sixense Motion Sensing Controllers: And FINALLY, #1! Now, you all might rewind back to the Wii, thinking what's so great. Well apparently, their technology isn't specific, and only uses 3 points of hand gesture. This technology really pushes it to the next level, wherein this has 6 points, and specifically controls based on how you're holding the remote and in the specific position. It hits right on the mark! Every 10 milliseconds, it calculates the EXACT position of the remote. It'll be out by the end of the year, for PC, and they're currently in talks with Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo to push it to their consoles. XBOX and PS3 fans rejoice, as for Wii users, this might spell bad news. Just imagine, Halo 3..with motion sensing...:D!
Well, that's my list for now, and I'll keep it updated as the convention continues, especially when my awaiting news appears, the upgrades on the new Acer Aspire One 10-inch Netbook, which I really want to buy. Until then, take it eZz :)
Welcome To My BLOG :D
Yeah, yeah, I know this should've come before the New Years one, but who the hell cares! Anyways, my name is Saahir, for those who want to know. I'm a 15 year old teen of Indian descent living in Toronto, and am in grade 10. I find blogging to be a really great outlet, seeing as when I'm out on the streets, there's really no way to let my inner thoughts out. It's just hustle, hustle, get money, and hustle again :)...and an education. Anyways, hope the readers enjoy it on a regular basis, and drop any comments by whenever you feel the need. Enjoy :).
NBA : Root To Raptors Losses?
Well, for starters, let me reveal that I live in Toronto, but am in NO WAY associated with the rowdy, cheap ticket crowd sitting up in the $12.50 Sprite Zone seats yelling 'MVP! MVP!' every time Chris Bosh gets to the free throw line. And that line won't even attempt to pass through my head before the Raptors learn to START WINNING! Let's see their major screw-ups over the past few years...
1.) Hiring Babcock as General Manager, who "smartly" drafted Rafael Araujo with the 7TH OVERALL FRIGGIN PICK!! :O . This meaning that he gave up the likes of Andre Iguodala, Josh Smith, J.R. Smith, and whoever else....stupidity at it's finest.
2.) Letting Vince Carter go without seeking a proper offer! As soon as the league was aware of Vinsanity on the verge of leaving Toronto, teams were ready to offer anything(even their soul to the devil...nah, just kidding!) to get Air Canada on their side! Yet, Babcock couldn't bare to break his streak, and therefore traded Vince Carter for a loafty, on the verge of retirement Alonzo Mourning, who ended up getting paid by T-Dot and didn't even show up! Shame, shame...
3.) Letting Morris Peterson leave for the free agency market! I mean c'mon, clearly he was one of Toronto's most favourable athletes, having been on the team on of the longest, and just letting him go, aside from being an amazing shooter, but also a versatile scorer, was a bad, bad mistake. Despite not having better numbers than Kapono, he was able to accomplish much more, and it might be one of the roots to the Raptor's losses.
4.) FIRING SAM MITCHELL! C'mon guys, that's one drastic decision to make, ESPECIALLY when you're less than 20 games into the season. If you recall, the past 2 seasons had the Raptors starting off with worse records than the current one, yet they fire him now and replace him with interic coach Jay Triano. I mean, he's great and everything, but Mitchell was established in the league, even Coach of the Year 2 seasons ago, and I feel this is the current reason why the Raptor's are so mixed up in their plays, offence, etc. blowing 14 point leads at the half to lose the game.
Happy New Year People!
Well, what a year it has been! Hectic, tiring, depressing, yet, on the upper hand, exciting, adventurous, and very interesting. Of course, being a teenager, a lot of students really take a new year seriously, creating new resolutions, preparing new plans, making new decisions, etc. Me? Nahh B! I don't believe in that kind of stuff. The difference between one year and another is a minute...how much change can you expect? -_-. I mean, I'm not trying to play the party pooper or anything, but I'm just offering my opinion on why I think people get a little TOO excited, for a new year. I, myself, have set several goals, like staying in shape(not required, I'm already on the volleyball and basketball team), acing my courses(hopefully..), and just being able to make as mushc of my day as possible. But HEY! Those have been my goals since day 1, so why the hell should I start them at the beginning of the calendar year?? Ahh well, as long as people are having fun, who am I to say anything? Just a sensible, honest teenager :), eZz.
