Iverson, Cheeks don’t speak

March 19, 2008 by

When Allen Iverson left town after being traded to the Denver Nuggets on Dec. 19, 2006, he departed without having any words with 76ers coach Maurice Cheeks. Fifteen months later, they still haven’t spoken. The relationship between Cheeks and Iverson may have started going downhill after an incident on Nov. 29, 2006. The two had words at practice. Iverson left, and then didn’t attend a mandatory team party and was fined $20,000. He then played in three games, the final one on Dec. 6, a 121-94 loss at Chicago…….and we flashback to one of A.I’s finer moments…

Juice Crew Reunite to Headline A3C Festival

March 19, 2008 by

It’s been about a decade since the legendary Juice Crew last rocked a stage together, but in a matter of days, Biz Markie, Big Daddy Kane, Marley Marl, MC Shan, Roxanne Shante, and Craig G will reunite for a headlining performance at the fourth annual A3C Hip Hop Festival. Unfortunately, Masta Ace will not be able to make the trip because of some previously scheduled promotion for his new album.

The Juice Crew’s set goes down this Friday, March 21– right in the middle of A3C, which takes place at Atlanta’s CW Midtown Complex from March 20-22. Other performers at the festival include Clipse/Re-Up Gang, Del the Funky Homosapien, Three 6 Mafia, Little Brother, Jeru the Damaja, Aceyalone, Guilty Simpson, Akrobatik, and Public Enemy’s DJ Lord.

Festivalgoers can also check out a producer showcase judged by the Alchemist and No I.D. (with special appearances from DJ Toomp and Don Cannon), an early morning Clipse/Re-Up Gang signing at the flagship New Era store in Atlanta, and a panel discussion about women in hip-hop

The Raconteurs Reveal Consolers Tracklist

March 19, 2008 by

So the idea is, you’re not gonna get to hear Consolers of the Lonely, the just-announced sophomore set from Jack White and Brendan Benson’s Raconteurs until it’s actually issued March 25 on Third Man/XL/Warner Brothers. That’s this coming Tuesday– six whole days!

You can, however, now gaze longingly at its tracklist and imagine what it’s gonna sound like. Will “The Switch and the Spur” be a country-rock jam? Will “These Stones Will Shout” be the Stones-y shouter? Could “Many Shades of Black” be their Sunn O))) homage? See, we don’t know, and you don’t either, and that’s what’s so great about all this. It’s like the last ten years never happened!

As you know, the Raconteurs are hitting the road in support of their new disc, and Raleigh, North Carolina’s Birds of Avalon have apparently been handpicked by the band to open their initial string of North American dates…read more at Pitchfork Media
