C'mon Cavs

Hey Soul Mates,
well, my Cavaliers put up a good fight at Staples tonight. The Lakers came out on top after an unforced turnover by Zydrunis Ilgauskas led to a 5 point L.A. lead. But, yes! That was me on TV in the last minute of the game. After all the face time TNT gave to Ashton & Demi, Jack, The Donald and Denzel, it was only fair. In fact, I was about 6 rows behind the Donald. Thanks to Dave in LV for calling me to let me know. Cleveland needs a celebrity fan, I'm already it. I am usually the only person with seats that close to the court wearing nothing but Cavs gear. At least the Laker fans were a bit nicer to me this year.

Here's the weird part: I'm driving back home up 8th to Alvarado and I here the guy in the pick-up next to me shouting "Dude! Dude!" Normally, I try not to get involved in mid-traffic conversations, but I looked over. And the other driver says, "Dude, I saw you on TV. Not 10 minutes ago! Sorry your team didn't win." I thanked him and he drove ahead.
Ahh, life in La La.

Love, Power, Peace.

p.s. don't forget we have a free show tomorrow night at Good (see rushhoursoul.com for details).

Welcome Home, Roscoe Jenkins (Review)

I'm just in from the world premiere of Welcome Home, Roscoe Jenkins . WHRJ is the new comedy starring Martin Lawrence, directed by Malcolm Lee ( Roll Bounce ; Undercover Brother both underrated and well-worth your time) . It's the story of a Hollywood hotshot who takes his new fiancee and his son to his parents' 50 th wedding anniversary/family reunion. Mr. Lawrence as usual shows off his comedic genius. He has steadily become a sure bet in Hollywood. This time Lawrence is flanked by a cast of stars that at times threaten to steal the movie. Mike Epps (Reggie, a straight-up fool) and Mo'Nique (Betty) in particular shine in their roles as cousins to Lawrence's talk show king, RJ Stevens aka Roscoe Jenkins. The gift of gab runs deep in this family. Michael Clarke Duncan has never made me laugh so hard as Otis, Roscoe's unlikely little brother. Anytime the three of them were on screen the audience's laughter drowned out the dialogue. Watch for the softba...

Murderous Haircut of the Mayor of Bel Air - Book Review

“The Murderous Haircut of the Mayor of Bel Air” is a trippy new mystery novel from Phillip Mottaz. It captures the grit and gilt of the City of Angels with the flair of a contemporary Raymond Chandler. The brisk pace and wit are reminiscent of Douglas Adams’s entries in the detective game. Flourishes of  Fletch  and “Medium” also spring to mind. However, Mottaz has added a psychic/mutant/superhuman touch and his own comedic voice, structure and internal monologues to the proceedings that help the author announce his own style and the arrival of a literary heroine for a new generation. Hairstylist and budding private investigator, Danica Luman is the perfect character to convey the irony, angst and sarcasm needed to tell a 21st century L.A. crime story. Danica also represents anyone who thought it would be neat to get tangled up in a mystery and the darkly comic cautionary tale that follows. The genre is recognizable, but Mottaz offers a fresh take on the not-ready-for-prime-ti...
