SWAGG REPORT: Jay-Z Introduces His New Book At a New York Public Library… He Really Goes All The Way In….

August 27th, 2010

Jigga gives the NYPL a sneak peek into his upcoming memoir, ‘Decoded.’

Jay-Z is finally gearing up to release his biographical book Decoded. He teamed up with former The Source editor Dream Hampton to write the memoir, which combines an autobiographical first-person style with interviews from close friends and family. The book will also include his explanation to lyrics of selected tracks.

Jigga is now scheduled to discuss the memoir at the New York Public Library in November. While the book was completed several years ago, it is only now that he is ready to share it with audiences, despite his reservations.

“It’s too much,” he told Rolling Stone. “For the book, I was interviewed, people close to me were interviewed. So I was learning a lot of things I didn’t know as a child. It’s not anything I haven’t said in the past, in songs. It’s just more detailed. A song is three minutes long. A book doesn’t have to rhyme, and it has no time limit, so you can say exactly how everything went.”

The NYPL discussion will take place on Nov. 15, and the book is set to release the next day.

Have you been keeping the Faith? Ms. Evans, who’s kept her silence since the release of her 2005 holiday album A Faithful Christmas, returns with the promo for her first album in almost five years.

Something About Faith, her fifth studio LP and first since her ‘05 joint The First Lady, has already spawned the Snoop Dogg-assisted single “Way You Move” and, in anticipation of the release, the songstress has released a video promo showing behind-the-scenes footage of her album photo shoot.

With Evans’ church-reared vocals playing in the background, the clip shows she’s back and better than ever. Watch the vid below (care of Bossip), and look out for the album hitting stores October 5 via E1 Records.

The Pittsburgh emcee respectfully elects to remain on his own tour.

On Thursday (August 19) Drake told fans via UStream that he hoped to secure Wiz Khalifa for his upcoming Light Dreams and Nightmares tour. However, due to the fact that Khalifa’s Waken Baken tour begins at the same time, the Pittsburgh emcee had to decline.

“Just the fact of cuz even extending his hand and me being on his radar is tight, to me,” said Khalifa in a brief interview with XXLMag.com. “It just lets me know that I’m doin’ what I need to be doin’ as far as stayin’ relevant and stayin’ poppin’. But I think to keep me poppin’ and keep me relevant I gotta stay buildin’ on top of what I’m doin’ and what I been doin’. No disrespect to cuz or anybody else who might wanna see me do some more collaborative things, but to keep buildin’ and keep my brand as strong as what it is, I gotta keep focusin’ on what it is. This is my first tour that I got comin’ up, the Waken Baken tour, I gotta at least kick that off and make that it what it is so we can do ten more.”

Khalifa joked that when he could make $10 million off of touring like Drake reportedly did last year, he would go tour with him.

“I really want to meet him and chop it up with him,” said Wiz Khalifa of Drake. “I wanna meet him, chop it up, smoke one with him and who knows what could happen. But it’s all positive right now.”

The Waken Baken tour begins on September 16 at Philadelphia’s Trocadero Theatre.

Pastor Troy Gives some details on expanding his portfolio with ESPN.
With a 21-album discography, music has been an enormous part of Pastor Troy’s life. Now, the “Throw It Up” rapper is parlaying his recordings into a licensing deal with ESPN.

“I messed around with ESPN for football season for the show NFL Live,” revealed Troy in an interview with OzoneMag.com. “We got some licensing deals and stuff like that and that shit is stoopid! I’m just getting into all these endorsement deals and stuff, because rap is so big now you just gotta find your niche and keep grindin’ it out. That ESPN joint opened up a lot of doors though. So when you watchin’ Sportscenter and you hear that ‘Murder Man,’ don’t think your TV goin’ crazy, baby! It’s me!”

Pastor Troy revealed that he feels more at home with the sports industry than the Hip Hop world. “…I’m more into the sports industry than I am in the music industry. I ain’t got a lot of music industry friends, I got a lot of sports industry friends, so just hookin’ up with those boys we kickin’, trying to blow this shit out of proportion.”

Pastor Troy’s latest release, King of All Kings, is in stores now.

SWAGG FASHION: Nike Air Force 1 Foamposite Black. From The Neck Up…

August 21st, 2010

Photobucket

When the first images of the silver colorway of the Air Force 1 x Foamposite mash-up first surfaced, the response to Nike’s latest high-profile hybrid shoe was mixed at best.  A lot of people must have been won over between then and the release, because the shoe disappeared pretty quickly from almost every spot they hit a few weeks back, despite the lofty Foam-driven price tag. There has been much speculation over whether or not more colorways would follow, and now, Nike Sportswear gives us our first peek at a new Black/Black version. It’s unclear if these will hit retail, but the wording in their post leaves us optimistic. Stick with Sneaker News for more on future Air Force 1 Foamposite releases as new info emerges.
