Last week Myself and Jamila (the Culture Editor for Globalgrind) had the chance to swing by Fader Magazine’s party to celebrate the release of issue #61 at We Make It Good which is a crazy popup store with giant phones and video projected on almost every wall in the building. The music was good, and the atmosphere was amazing as people networked and threw back free ice cold Budweisers.
A few weeks ago Ness and I held a small contest to figure out someone to hang out with, well We couldn’t pick a winner. Everyone is so cool and so fly, we decided to invite everyone to come out and hang with us. So, this Friday we’re inviting everyone out to come and party, drink and get wild with us at Dave & Buster’s in NYC
If you’re going to try to make it out please rsvp with me by email Xilla at blogxilla dot com
We are now at a place where they’ll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss, and fifty cents for your soul. As I sit in someone else’s living room listening to my favorite Lil Wayne song I can’t help, but think of my birthday this Sunday. Things are moving so fast sometimes I struggle to get a hold of everything that’s going on and frankly it scares me.
Even today’s world of care free sex it amazes me how people don’t know the rule of casual sex. In order to help the process of casual sex along I have came up with 10 commandments for the world to follow.
1. Thou shall not leave any clothing at the other persons house
2. Thou Shall not use the L-Word
3. Thou shall not expect cuddling and leave once the sex is over
4. Thou shall show up to the other person’s house with groceries
5. Thou shall use protection

Dinner + Movie = Dead. Yes, I’m saying it. In 2008 it’s all about thinking outside of the box. Women want alot of things, but at the top of the list there’s probably a little section stating “to date a guy who is NOT like all the other fish in the sea”. You want to be that shark… or tadpole. Whichever way you may float, here are 5 alternatives to the dinner/movie combo.
1. The Walkabout: Who says you need a destination in mind? In this case, it’s all about the journey. If you’re living in an urban area, you can walk around with your companion and start exploring the wonder that is your city. Go to that little bar that the tourists don’t know about. Any local spots that you know about are fair game. Besides, you’re hopefully in good company and that’s the most important part.
Everyone wants to go out a champion, or a winner. Well that’s what Floyd “Money” Mayweather is preparing to do. In a letter to the world “Money” has announced his retirement from the sport of boxing. It seems that he’s not happy with the sport.
“…after many sleepless nights and intense soul-searching, I realized I could no longer base my decision on anything but my own personal happiness, which I no longer could find.”
A single tear fell from my eye as I read his poetic words. The man who throws money in the air, fights 400 plus pound wrestling superstars and runs red lights on HBO is not happy. I think he’s just scared to lose. His ego is so large that he is afraid to suffer the same fate as Roy Jones, or a Mike Tyson. As young talent like Miguel Coto, want to bash his face in, and old stalwarts like Oscar Dela Hoya want to pound away at him, the thought alone has his knees knocking.
He’d much rather blow his money by making it rain, or entertain us by splurging thousands of dollars on shoes for R&B singers singing about the dumb dumb men of the world. He states “However, these past few years have been extremely difficult for me to find the desire and joy to continue in the sport.” I guess doing the waltz on ABC fills your body with joy as well? Honestly I can’t blame him for quiting. I couldn’t be a boxer, because after round 1 I’m coming back into the middle of the ring with my gloves off and my stool in hand ready to Stone Cold Steve Austin someone.
So Floyd, take this time to walk away with your speech in tact, your sanity in hand, and with one of the most impressive goose eggs ever seen in the sport of boxing. Just remember money isn’t forever, invest in your life and take a look at some of your habits and ways. The barber shops, sport bars and guys night out will miss you.
