After 52 years of struggling to win a championship from a Cleveland team, King James and the Cavaliers finally take home a title. I personally never counted Lebron out, because he's such a dynamic versatile player that you never know what he's truly capable of. He's definitely been one of the most entertaining sports players to watch, because of his athleticism. Overcoming much criticism throughout his entire career, Lebron James literally took Cleveland on his back and promised that he'll get the city a championship and tonight he fulfilled that promise. Although James is mainly credited and received the MVP trophy for the finals, he remained humble knowing he couldn't have accomplished his goal without the team. Kyrie Irving is a much was a key player in the series, because he picks up where Lebron lacks. Irving is a shooter, proving that through out the finals by knocking down key shots, similar to the last minute of game 7 where Kyrie hit the 3 point shot that s...

Do you think Draymond Green should've been suspended?  In the midst of a crucial game 5 in the NBA Finals the league decides to take matters in their own hands with the suspension of Golden State's power forward Draymond Green. On Friday during an intense game 4 emotions took over as many players shared verbal banter against one another. Of these players Draymond Green and Lebron James became slightly physical starting with James stepping over Green and Green followed with a swing towards James. Fans are irate calling the suspension unfair in attempts to cheat for  the Cleveland Cavilers since the team fell short in game for giving the Warriors a 3-1 lead in the series. The Warriors having this leads requires the Cavs to win 3 straight games against a team that they have struggled to defeat. The Warriors has done a terrific job guarding Lebron and with Draymond in the paint Lebron hasn't gotten easy layups or dunks. The absence of Green may drastically change game 5 an...

Singer Bobby Brown the former husband and father of the late Whitney Houston and Bobbi Christina , reveals in an interview with Robin Roberts, that he'll be releasing a "tell all" book titled Every Little Step, Pulls No Punches .  According to Ricky Smiley this book exposes and answers ongoing questions and details regarding his marriage between Whitney Houston. Audiences disagree with Bobby's decision to expose the details of their marriage saying that this defaming the late singer's name. Is Bobby Brown petty for writing this book after the death of Whitney?  No. Here's why, first throughout the course of their entire public relationship, Whitney Houston was portrayed as " Americas Sweetheart ," while Mr. Brown was seen as the contaminating bad boy. Audiences accused Bobby as the reason for the decline of Ms. Houston and even after their split, his name has always been used in horrible context. Does this give him the right to throw shade...

Guess who's back? Well he never left in my opinion, but of course the Goat, HOV (Jay Z), with a few unexpected features released last week. I wouldn't be surprised if HOV decided to drop an album this year. His last album Magna Carter Holy Grail released in 2013, was a commercial success, going platinum before the album even came out. Yes, with the help of his T-mobile promotion deal, and Justin Timberlake featured on the lead single "Holy Grail." Although I loved the album and there were great songs, lyrically this wasn't what his true fans like to hear from him. However in Terror Squad's single " All the way up " HOV decided remix and bring the heat back. This is the classic New York sound, that hip hop listeners love to hear from New York natives. Being that this is the first time the public has heard from HOV, of course he instantly addresses the state of his marriage with Beyonce. This comes as no surprise to fans like myself, because...

Welcome home, a slimmer Gucci Mane after a 3 years sentence in Atlanta's Federal prison, for pleading guilty to illegal gun possession by a felon, possession of marijuana, disorderly conduct and more. Already a felon, clearly this wasn't Gucci's first time in trouble with the law. Fans were surprised by the early release of Gucci and hours after rumors of an upcoming mixtape release has been in conversation. Although Gucci has released several mixtapes while being incarcerated , it's nothing like having him free to do it.  Fans were unprepared to see him go away for this long, because the prior incidents were not during such a prominent time musically.  Gucci Mane and Brick Squad are the reason trap music is as popular as it is today. They created a unique cultural sound for Atlanta rappers, outside of them being just down south music. Before Gucci Mane Atlanta rappers had the down south country boy sound, but there wasn't a uniqueness to them. Let's be rea...
