I have to hand it to Bruk Pocket Dash, the man doesn’t give up.
Check out his latest venture…
Rap mogul Damon Dash’s luxury timepiece and jewelry brand Tiret New York has turned its hand to automotive design with its latest creation, the Tiret Sport Coupe. Just unveiled at watch expo Baselworld in Switzerland, the luxurious 2-door SUV is based on the Range Rover Sport and features real diamond accents derived from Tiret’s opulent oversized, bejeweled timepieces by designer Daniel Lazar.
Available by special order at an undisclosed but undoubtedly astronomical price, the car is available with custom watch dial displays derived from Tiret’s diamond timepieces, as well as an elegant central clock. A wide variety of color combinations including two-tone schemes is available inside and out in addition to Nappa leather seating and fine wood trim. Exterior modifications include wider flared arches, LED lighting, 22-inch LSE alloy wheels and a full panoramic glass sunroof. Source
Only the mega oil rich with billions to play around with would waste money on a vehicle like this, just for the hell of it.
The morbid reality show continues!
We were forced in to watching her die and now this?
Jade Goody’s funeral is to be shown on television.
The final chapter in the late reality TV star’s life, Jade: With Love part 2, will be aired on LIVING tonight (Thursday April 9).
It will be narrated by Kate Jackson, producer of the show and friend and bridesmaid to Jade, who died on Mother’s Day following her battle with cervical cancer.
Kate said: “At first Jade said she didn’t want to get involved in the planning of her funeral, but then she had some strong ideas about what she wanted and what she didn’t want.”
She continued: “What she did want was a huge day. She wanted tears, she wanted everyone to be able to come and grieve for her.” Continue Reading…..
Rest In Peace Jade Goody.
So, how many of you will be tuning in tonight then?
A man who died of a heart attack during the G20 protest last week was pushed to the ground by a police officer, video footage has shown.
Ian Tomlinson, 47, collapsed from a heart attack during protests outside the Bank of England last Wednesday.
Newsagent Mr Tomlinson, who was not protesting, is seen receiving a two-handed push from a police officer.
A New York fund manager recorded the footage, saying he came forward with the video because Mr Tomlinson’s family “were not getting any answers”.
Watch the attack below.
The BBC website also reports that officers caught on film when Tomlinson was pushed have yet to come forward.
…………………………………….
Today a colleague of mine said that the police officer responsible would now pay for his actions.
I thought he was being a little naive, and said I wouldn’t hold my breath. The Metropolitan police have been getting away with murder (literally) for YEARS. They will close ranks and return with some well thought out spin.
Plus they have already attempted to cover up their dirt!
My colleague then replied, “This is Britain! I refuse to believe that the officer responsible will be allowed to go unpunished”.
I just shook my head, but sincerely hope he is right on this one.
My condolances go out to Ian Tomlinson’s family.
Rest In Peace Ian Tomlinson.

Eminem’s back with new single ‘We Made You’, which is obviously geared towards his mainstream audience.
It’s the same old Em, attacking ‘celebs’ of the moment… yeah heard it seen it all before.
It’s just all a bit tired.

Parkinson shows no mercy!
Jade Goody, the reality TV star who died last month of cervical cancer aged 27, represented “all that is paltry and wretched about Britain”, Sir Michael Parkinson has said.
He told Radio Times: “Jade Goody has her own place in the history of television and, while it’s significant, it’s nothing to be proud of. Her death is as sad as the death of any young person, but it’s not the passing of a martyr or a saint or, God help us, Princess Di.
“When we clear the media smoke screen from around her death, what we’re left with is a woman who came to represent all that’s paltry and wretched about Britain today.
“She was brought up on a sink estate, as a child came to know drugs and crime, was barely educated, ignorant and puerile. Then she was projected to celebrity by Big Brother and became a media chattel to be exploited till the day she died.”
Well is the man lying?
R.I.P Jade Goody.
Spotted @ The Cocoa Diaries
1XTRA Radio’s Homegrown recently saluted 30 years of Hip Hop with UK acts performing their own renditions of classic tracks by Eric B & Rakim, Lauryn Hill, Tupac, Wu Tang, amongst others.
My thoughts on the renditions… an absolute travesty!!!!
Nah, only joking. All the artists featured did a pretty decent job.
