Someone said something about Gil Scott Heron so I know a non-zero amount about what you guys are talking about in the last few pages. http://www.espn.com/espn/feature/story/_/page/presents19337502/houston-rockets-coach-mike-dantoni-having-more-fun-ever quote:Early this season, Brewer, who was traded to the Lakers in late February, took a pass on the baseline, drove, spun, shook two defenders with a 360 and missed a point-blank shot at the rim. "Coach, I did my thing," he told D'Antoni, "but then I got to the rim and just ran out of talent."

Just a heads up New Found Glory released a new album. Jimmy Eat World performed in a club in Sacramento but I'm not a big enough fan of Integrity Blues to pay $50+ a ticket

Real talk: Dark Twisted Fantasy was so supremely overrated and the reaction of the critical establishment to an exceedingly okay album was the thing that led Kanye down the path of thinking that he was a genius and believing he could do no wrong which has meant six years of increasingly bad music, culminating in the true piece of poo poo that was Life of Pablo, the musical equivalent of Kobe's last NBA game. Kanye West is Kobe Bryant: not as good as either he or the basic hypebeasts who worship him think he is.

I mean all music fades from "cultural" relevance quickly nowadays. Different media and music environment. I still bump, ULB, FSMH 1, Famous, FML, Real Friends, No More Parties and Fade frequently.

I am so far out of my element with the current discussion. The only thing I can add is that I guess Dre would be like Doc Rivers or Stan van Gundy or Tom Thibs. He is a fantastic producer but is bad at actually rapping himself.

Steve Nash is Timbaland because his production gave other people some of their best years ever and he's actually mentioned by Nelly Furtado in her song ""Promiscuous" with Timbaland, bringing the comparison full circle.

Last year the 3 Alphas were put together. The doldrums of the second round of the playoffs is the only time we have to go off the rails, because nothing interesting is happening until the 2 weeks of the Cavs Warriors finals we get.
