Post Of The Night

Sup all. I hope to get this blog on more search engines. I want people to come here. If you got any ideas on how to do that email me. Tongiht was very uneventful. There was a good number of people at The Dragons Table though. I played some casual games with my casual all Mirrodin. I did pretty good. Plenty of old school people. Besides that there wasnt much else. Bah! Getting tired, must sleep. Rember to do your extended testing for saturday.

Until Later, Grapes17

Post of the day.

Tongiht was pretty uneventful. I got some new card sleeves. They were Ultra Pro Deck Protectors. I got 100 blue and 100 black. From what I can tell they are pretty high quality. I will have to do some more testing for my final desion. Expect a full review of them in about a week. I also did some extended testing tonight. I am testing tinker. It is pretty interesting. I like having double Tangle Wire on the table. Other than that the night was uneventful.

Props of the day go to the Ultra Pro Deck Protector sleeves for being high quality.
Card of the day is Tangle Wire. It is very fun and annoying at the same time.

Until later.

Obie Trice - Cheers (Review)

This is a review for a Rap/Hip-Hop CD. If you don't care about that kind of music you don't have to read the review.

I am a big fan of Eminem music, so when I found out that Obie Trice was going to be produced by Eminem I wanted to hear it right away. Since he didn't have a CD out at the time I downloaded a few songs of his off the internet. I liked what I herd so I went out and bought the mix tapes from DJ Green Lantern, Invasion and The Conspiracy. The mix tapes had a variety of artist, such as Eminem, Obie Trice, 50 Cent, and D12 among others. I really liked what I heard and couldn't wait to hear more from Obie Trice. I found out that his first CD was coming out on September 23.

Once it came out I bought it right away. I got home and listen to it all the way through. As with most CD's there were some songs I didn't like as much as other, and some I liked more than other. I listen to it a few more times to get the feel of the CD and came to my final decision.

Overall it is a pretty good CD. I'll give it a 7/10. I would recommend getting it if you are an Eminem fan. I would also recommend it if you are looking for something new.

Now for a list of the top 3 tracks from the CD:
3. Look In My Eyes (featuring Nate Dogg) - Any song with Nate Dogg on it is good. And this is no exception.
2. Never Forget Ya - I like this song because it has feeling and it has a good beat.
1. Don't Come Down - This is a great song. I could listen to it over and over again. It has a great beat and again the song has feeling.

Well I have made a new color change. Now the blog has its own custom feel, instead of the colors that came with it. I think it adds personality. I also have added a list of links of site that I visit. Check them out. If they are good enough for me they are good enough for you.
