Hey everyone sorry for not writing the last couple of days. I haven't seen much to deliver my opinions on things but I have about three things that I would like to write about today, maybe four. Those topics are the Monday usual entertainment post, Brewers, Brian Cushing, and NBA Playoff stuff so let's get it.
MUSIC: I have a couple selections for the Corner today. A guy who has been getting a lot of hype in the past couple of weeks is B.o.B., the talented hip-hop artist out of Atlanta. He is worth the hype and the CD is something worth listening all the way through. He is definitely a big time player in the hip hop game right now. 1.) Don't Let Me Fall 2.) I'll Be In The Sky 3.) Ghost in a Machine
Another group for you guys today is Blitzen Trapper. I realize that I am late on this group but like I said last week until Pretty Much Amazing, I couldn't find good non hip-hop music. Blitzen Trapper is very good, I find it enjoyable and like to listen to it as much as possible. It's been running non stop for the last couple of days. 1.) Furr 2.) Black River Killer 3.) Asleep for Days
TV: I had a top 10 hangover on Saturday morning, I blame the vodka and the drinks that were 90 percent hard liquor 10 percent soda. Anyways, I was looking for stuff to watch and I stumbled upon the first seven episodes of the Sopranos. I watched all seven that day and then two more than evening. I am hooked for sure and definitely recommend it if you have never watched.
THOUGHTS: So the Maxim Hot 100 came out today and I have to say they did a good job. I have said multiple times that Katy Perry is underrated in terms of being hot and now finally she is getting her due. Can't say I told you so. Also big fan of Brooklyn Decker, I think Zoe Saldana is a bit overrated for being a hot smurf, I mean c'mon. Other than that, I am pretty content with the top 10.

WILTW: Whales/Blogs/Entourage Reruns
Welcome to another edition of WILTW. If you missed the first time around, it is happily titled What I Liked This Week, basically a wrap up of the shit I discovered or like from the week. Here's what we are getting into this week.
MUSIC: Freelance Whales- This is an indie group I found searching around a couple days ago and I really like their style. It's just a real enjoyable music to listen to in the morning when you are regretting class, the hangover, or the girl who made out with at the local bar. Here are my top three for you guys.
1.) Broken Horses
2.) Ghosting
3.) Great Estates
4.) Hannah (Song is extended big time, but still a good listen)
BLOG: I have two of those this week, the first one is a blog called Pretty Much Amazing. It's a great music blog to find everything from hip-hop to the indie alternative scene. All the time you have rap blogs where you can find the latest mixtape material but never the other types of music, really enjoyable.
BLOG: Another one is Boston Barstool Sports, it has everything you want if you are a guy. Sports talk, good looking women, and funny stories from all over the world. God bless my father who introduced me to this website thanks to a guy who works with him.
OVERALL THOUGHTS: One of the biggest regrets as a young male you can ever do is rewatch Entourage from the beginning. It is one of the most addicting shows to watch, you can never just watch one episode. I like the older seasons but I am not one of those snobs that complains about how the seasons are.

WILTW: A Fresh Dose of What I Like
Starting today, I am beginning a post every Monday where I like you know "What I Like This Week" featuring a post with some music I am enjoying, movies or television, and overall thoughts from my head really, hope you like it.
Music: Chiddy Bang: They are a fresh hip-hop group out of Philadelphia who I have been listening to as much as I can and informing people at an alarming rate about how good they are. They fall into the group of great new artists out there (see Wale, Kid Cudi, Wiz Khalifa, J. Cole, many others) I will post my three personal favorite songs
1. Flying By Them Haters
2.Truth (using a Passion Pit sample, I know many are big fans, me personally am not.)
3. Under the Sheets
Also this song is on Itunes, known as Opposite of Adults
TV: If you are not watching Fresh Meat II on MTV, you are missing out on the greatest rivalry since Bird vs. Magic. That rivalry would be Kenny-Wes, two meat heads just going at each other throats and ready to rumble as much as possible. I think this show has everything you want; competition, drunkenness, sex, and hot girls, any other questions? I mean look at Wes' partner Mandi, granted she would turn me down quicker than Usian Bolt, she still is about as hot as you can get for Reality TV.
Movies: Finally saw Avatar, which in my opinion was a solid movie and one I enjoyed for the most part. Mostly for the breath-taking special effects and the way they set up Pandora. I think Jim Cameron (like Vinny Chase, I can call you Jim too right?) overhyped this movie worse than the Justin Biebler phenomenon in our society and no it didn't deserve Best Picture. The acting wasn't really there at all and the plot reminded me of any movies surrounding Native Americans or Europe into Africa. Once again, I like the movie but I think America as a whole had this over-the-top orgasm about it that wasn't need whatsoever.
Final Thoughts: I want to know the obsession with the Hills. I am going to lay my man card in question, but I have watched the Hills, in fact back-to-back episodes because I tend to get sucked it for whatever reason. I mean these people did NOTHING yet they cover US Weekly and all those other magazines. I can't put a finger on why it swept America like it did. Also no I will not be watching on Tuesday night when it premieres in case you were wondering.
