Download: Cormega "Maybach Music Freestyle"



This is definitely not the illest freestyle I've ever heard but I'm a Mega die-hard so it's good to hear some new shit from him. Plus this is his type of beat to rock over.

Market Report

You're not as good as you think



The Dallas Kid sent this my way and I think it's definitely post-worthy. Every week Sports Illustrated has a "players poll" on different subjects, i.e. "Who's the toughest defender to play against," etc.

Well here's this week's poll:

Which NBA player thinks he's a lot better than he really is?

Kendrick Perkins, Celtics C.....8%
DeShawn Stevenson, Wizards G.....8%
Rashad McCants, T-Wolves G.....5%
Dahntay Jones, Nuggets G......5%
Damon Jones, Bucks G.....5%

190 total players were polled.

Download: 50 Cent "Tia Told Me (Rick Ross diss)"



"Wait, let me tell you what your baby mama told me... you ain't got a street bone in your whole body..."

I gotta say this is my favorite "diss" that has come from the whole 50 Cent/Rick Ross beef. I have to say the ultimate diss is that in all reality, 50 Cent is a far more powerful "boss" than Rick Ross will ever be or has ever been. The singing is quite comical clowning as well. Is 50 back? He's going after Fat Joe and DJ Khaled too. Rick should just make a truce.

Joaquin Phoenix...Is Out of His Mind

Crooked Straight has been following Joaquin's recent career shift from actor to rapper, and it just continues to get more and more bizarre. Last night he appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman, and gave a "w-t-f-is-he-on?" interview. And, of course, Dave had some fun with him. Here's the full clip.

Daily Dunk: Nene

Since we always show D.Wade yacking on his fellow NBA athletes, it's only fair we show him getting toileted when it happens courtesy of the Nuggets' Nene, who has really stepped up his facial game this season.

Six Middle School Students Face Charges for "Sexting"


This news clip offers a clear example of the puritanical way our society and justice system react to the sexuality of minors. Should a 13 year old girl be posing naked for pictures taken by her 14 year old boyfriend? Probably not. Should he then send them to his friends? Probably not. But should he and his friends be charged with such an awful and stigmatic crime as child pornography? Absolutely not.
FALMOUTH - Six middle school students could face child porn charges after a boy took a nude photo of his 13-year-old girlfriend and “sexted” it to his pals’ cell phones, cops said.

The six boys, ages 12 to 14, will be summoned to Falmouth District Court for a hearing to determine whether they should be charged with possessing, exhibiting or distributing child porn in the form of a text message photo, according to The Cape Cod Times.

Sony's new "Piece of Shit" released

Here's some more comic relief from The Onion.

I know we've all been there before.

Stand and Deliver: Kevin Hart

"Stand-up Month" may be over (if it ever really existed), but I don't give a flying... So I decided to start a regular feature here at CrookedStraight.com (I'd call it a "daily" feature, but we all know I'm too lazy for that).

This clip comes from Kevin Hart's recent special, "I'm a Grown Little Man".
