For the NEW Sony Ericsson’s ANDROID phone called Xperia Active you will be sweatin’ this phone or NOT! Actually you will be sweatin’ this new phone but NOT physically sweating it while you own it. You ask what do you mean? Well for all you cell phone gadget lovers this ANDROID is SWEAT PROOF. You got it, you can sweat all day and not destroy ya phone how u like them bars… (short for bars on a cell phone…lol). Sony Ericsson's recently announced smartphone is built to withstand the elements. It's dust proof, water-resistant and even incorporates "wet finger tracking" (which, admittedly, sounds somewhat gross).



Please just because it is SWEAT PROOF and everything else proof doesn’t mean you can take it diving in ya swimming pool, or drop it in the toilet…lol… because you will be “kill” the phone. This phone is really meant for sporty jogger types and those who sweat profusely.









The NEW Sony Ericsson’s ANDROID phone comes with a 1-GHz processor, 3.3-inch screen and 8.1-megapixel back-facing camera. The phone was unveiled in Singapore this past Wednesday at the CommunicAsia tech conference.
The phone is expected to be out this fall…hey you might like it I know from the looks of it, I do.

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: BAD MEETS EVIL (ROYCE THE 5'9 & EMINEM)



Grammy-winning rapper Eminem and Royce Da 5'9's new Hell: The Sequel is reportedly set to dominate its competition next week with sales projections totaling up to 160,000 copies.Based on one-day estimates, the duo's joint EP will easily debut at the top the sales chart.The project features collabo's from Slaughterhouse and pop star Bruno Mars.



A few weeks ago, Eminem explained on getting into his 'Bad Meets Evil' rap alias with Royce.

"Me and Royce, ever since back in the day when we did records together, we always had kind of a chemistry," said in an interview. "It was fairly easy to play off what each other was doing, and I think we can [think] a lot alike...This record, the way it came together, it wasn't anything that we planned to do. We didn't get together and say, 'Hey, man, let's make a Bad Meets Evil record.' It was more so along the lines of us making amends and repairing our issues that we had, and then one day, Bad [Royce] brought asong to me and wanted me to jump on it, and the way it ended up coming out, it was pretty easy to do. It didn't take a lot of time. It was fun to do it. The way we knocked that record out kind of quickly ... it just morphed into this." (MTV)

LUPE GIVES HIS TRUE FEELINGS ABOUT PRESIDENT OBAMA !!







Grammy-winning rapper Lupe Fiasco has taken notice of the backlash headed his way in light of calling President Barack Obama the United States' biggest terrorist this week and slyly responded to his critics.



LUPE FIASCOs TWITTER COMMENTS:

"Well if President Barack Obama is the "biggest terriost to America" @lupefiasco is the "biggest terriost to the hopes of Black people"," Fiasco re-tweeted.

"In my fight against terrorism, to me, the biggest terrorist is Obama in the United States of America," Fiasco said in an interview. "For me, I'm trying to fight the terrorism that's actually causing the other forms of terrorism. The root cause of the terrorism is the stuff that you as a government allow to happen and the foreign policies that we have in place in different countries that inspire people to become terrorists. And it's easy for us because it's really just some oil, which we can really get on our own." (CBS News)
