That Shit Cray



LeBron James has quite the documented history of rapping, so when I clicked this video of him mouthing "N*ggas In Paris" I thought I was in for another one of his typical lip syncing charades. WRONG. This is arguably the most bad ass basketball video I've ever seen. Apparently it was from one of James' lockout All-Star games last summer and the video starts with Bron singing his boy Hova's single while someone shoots a free throw.  Afterwards, the ball is in-bounded to James, who then takes two nonchalant dribbles before sinking a 50+ foot jump shot from behind the half court line that swishes at the buzzer. It wasn't a heave, it wasn't a chuck, it was a pull up J. FROM HALF COURT! Take that Skip Bayless. Clutch gene like a MF'er.

Music Videos That DO Suck, Vol. 1



Above is the very D.I.Y. video for the song "Rugrats" by Baltimore based rapper Articulate. Rugrats (the song) takes the theme song from Rugrats (the show), puts it on loop and uses it as a steady, nostalgic baseline. The lyrics aren't bad either, with references to other 90's television shows, but the video is hands down the piece of trash I've ever seen in my life. The lyrics don't even sync up with the video, there's a chubby, potential juggalette, who follows him around, and oh yeah.... HE GOES SWIMMING IN A SEA OF GARBAGE!!! The dude literally jumps in, rolls around and raps in a pile of filled up, used garbage bags. This video is like a swag repellent. The fact that Maxlife Media actually takes credit for putting this video together is one of the funniest things I've ever read on the internet. Take a look at some of the YouTube comments
"dude your good and all but for you to get anywhere you need more rapper swag... last thing i wanna see is a black dude swimming in garbage" -TCADYBABY

 Talk about a can jam.
