The following is a clip from a Ryan Leslie performance that took place in Gothenburg, Sweden as part of Leslie’s European tour in promotion of his latest album, ‘Transition’. While on stage serenading the crowd, Leslie gets a little too close to the fans and it results in his necklace being snatched from him. Rather than losing his cool and reacting typically as most would do, Leslie smoothly uses the interlude into his next song to convince the fans to retrieve his stolen necklace. He eventually received it back but it was broken and in several pieces. Close friend Fabolous tweeted about Ryan’s incident stating: “My man Ryan Leslie is so smooth he made a song into outta gettin his chain snatched … Hilarious!!!”

Was this the right approach or should he have handled the situation differently?

Set to be released at 12 am March 5th, Drake is set to release his first single off of his debut album ‘Thank Me Later’, luckily there has been an early release of the song which is produced by Boi 1-da and Al Khaaliq, enjoy.

Auto Flight High “Kill Bill”

Varsity Red/Varsity Red-White-Speed Yellow

This fresh kick is my favourite half of the Nike/Kobe Bryant collabo entitled “Kill Bill”. If you think the name is just a coincidence, you are wrong. A crazy shoe has to be tied to a crazy name like “Quentin Tarantino” and his infamous Kill Bill volumes. The Auto Flight Hi has a mixed nubuck/leather upper, vulcanized bottom and a vibrant colourway that is sure to stand out in any setting. A quality that doesn’t stand out is the Kill Bill in-sole featuring “The Black Mamba’s infamous ‘Death List” (with a Kobe-twist). Boston Celtics NBA Championship defeat lead to Ray Allen and Paul Pierce being the first two names crossed off Kobe’s list. Now if you have a hard time understanding the references, look up the names in bold and NBA Championships and bring yourself up to date.

AFI (A Fire Inside) is an American alternative rock band from Ukiah, California, formed in 1991. They have consisted of the same lineup since 1998, lead vocalist Davey Havok, drummer and backup vocalist Adam Carson, with bassist Hunter Burgan and guitarist Jade Puget, who both play keyboard and contribute backup vocals. This is their first single off their latest album Crash Love. Crash Love, AFI’s eighth full length studio album, due out September 29 on DGC/Interscope, is indeed informed not only  by the ever-evolving chemistry between the musicians in the band but also by the members’ personal lives and perhaps most of all by the always intense relationship between AFI and its fans. The latter has intensified considerably over the most recent of AFI’s 18 years as a band, with 2006’s december underground entering the chart at #1 with first week sales of nearly 200,000 and subsequent sold out shows at the Long Beach Arena and Bill Graham Civic as well as appearances on Saturday Night Live and at Live Earth–not to mention 2003’s Sing The Sorrow going platinum.

Did you know… The great warrior Ghengis Khan died in bed while having sex??!!!??

Mongol chronicles connect Genghis’ death with a Tangut princess taken as war booty. One chronicle from the early 17th century even relates that the princess hid a small pair of pliers inside her vagina, and hurt the Great Khan so badly that he died. Some Mongol authors have doubted this version and suspected it to be an invention by the rival Oirads.

Now you know.
