Yeah I checked out some of his stuff on youtube and he's pretty good. I had never heard of him though, maybe it's because I don't listen to the radio at all.

Hes not even on the radio. His first album isn't even out yet lol


Logic is the man. Dizzy Wright is also extremely legit and they're good homies

Damian Lillard has a cameo in the new Madden 2015 ad. The ad itself is pretty brilliant.

Check out the new Vince Carter 2014 season mix made by the mixing legend, Maxamillion711. Watching his videos makes me honored to be a die-hard VC fan.

Vince Carter, definitely a future hall of famer.

If these things can hold up to continued use, I think that a less flashy version for practice facilities would be a pretty cool tool for coaches. Like having the x's and o's on the court to learn plays (almost like what shows on the court when you run a play in 2K).

How is the surface? Is it indistinguishable by feel to a regular court? otherwise it could be a big problem for any NBA use.

It's in China and it's an LED surface.

Is it comfortable to play on? Sounds like you can get injured if you fall on these playing ball.

I'm pretty sure the courts the same and the lights are just reflected onto it.

Clearly not true from the Kobe video and the instagram video. There are no shadows.
