Animated Side of Iron Mike

Gotta pay homage to the man… Iron Mike Tyson… I absolutely love the idea of the former heavy weight champion of the world… Animated!… The series from Warner Bros Animation debuted Monday 10:30pm on Adult Swim.  Not only has Tyson chosen not to become a low life former boxing champ… He has done some really dope shit post boxing… “Undisputed Truth” directed by Spike Lee was a smash in my opinion… Tyson has a real future in front of the camera… Even if he’s animated… well Tyson is almost always animated…

As we all know… Tyson can entertain in a variety of ways… See the footage of him going at dude interviewing him in Canada… I was like whoa man…  don’t you know Iron Mike… wrong question…

As Deadline Hollywood describes them… the cast of the Mike Tyson Mysteries…  The ghost of the Marquis of Queensbury from centuries past, voiced by Community’s Jim Rash; a boozed-up bird that used to be human, voiced by Norm MacDonald in a role he was born to play; and Yung Hee, the Rachel Ramras-voiced home-schooled and adopted Korean daughter of Tyson.

Tyson is proving that there is more for boxers to do after the right hand can’t land for money… I personally wish Iron Mike the best in his new endevours…

According to Billboard… The third studio album from Nicki Manaj“The Pinkprint” is now set to be released on December 15th.  Manaj tweeted last month that the album would come out on November 24th.

This release is highly anticipated and I’m sure the multiplatinum entertainer… I would have said rapper… but i think she is far more than that in her already illustrious career…  will provide us with some risqué self promotion.

Everyone has their reasons.  And so does Mr. West… According to TMZ, Kanye West says “no thanks” to Planet Hollywood’s Axis Theater.

The Game is back on top with Blood Moon: Year of the Wolf… He is currently #1 on Billboard Rap Albums and R&B/Hip Hop albums charts.  Funny, the album has received mixed reviews from music critics.  Blood Moon is full of features from Lil Wayne, Ty $, Chris Brown, etc… too many to name…  some of the recent buzz around The Game was whether he would reunite with 50 and G-Unit.  Maybe that will happen… but for now… it seems as if he is relishing the early success of the album.

HIs upcoming album, Touchdown 2 Cause Hell, has been delayed a few times… but it’s coming… and the artist on it will forever be… Boosie Badazz…

 

 

Beats NFL Ban

The NFL makes a major move by placing a ban on Beats by Dre headphones… The recent ban is serious business… players wearing Beats during league related broadcast is an absolute no-no… see Colin Kaepernick’s $10,000 fine for wearing Beats in a post game press conference… well the reason… business… Welcome Bose to the NFL… they have become the exclusive provider of headsets for the NFL… This is nothing new for the NFL… see the Microsoft/NFL deal… like 400 mil to the NFL from Microsoft… yes the NFL are the true meaning of “pimps”… Now if they can only stop the their game announcers from calling the Microsoft product an iPad.

Beats co-founder Jimmy Iovine reacted to the news of the ban… stating “What happened there, you have a tech company that’s culturally inept,” Iovine said. “There’s no one at the company that said, ‘If you ban these guys {Beats}, you’re going to look bad to the young people, and they’re going to look like superheroes even though they’re just pure capitalists—well they’re not pure capitalists, but they’re real capitalists and [they] sold that company to Apple—but you’re going to make them look like the underdog.”

Seems as if Iovine thinks this is not a good move for Bose… or just a great business deal for Beats
