On your TV screens!


Yesterday I was informed of some awesomeness that'll be gracing TV screens all across the border!


That's right, the one and only Diamond Dealer will be featured doing his thing on SowetoTV (DSTv Channel 150) today.

I'll obviously be glued to my TV that time. My ritualistic PlayStationing immediately after work is gonna have to take the backseat. I wanna be there to witness history unfold!

You might be reading this and thinking, "what's the big deal!?". Well, let me ease your aching head...

The 051Free State range of t-shirts were only launched on the 15th of March 2010. And not even two months later they're gonna be on TV! <-- That right there is a big deal on it's own! Coupled with the fact that I basically took a giant leap in approaching a total stranger and asking them to be the brand ambassador for a brand that had only printed it's very first t-shirts in June 09. A brand that not a lot of people knew about. A brand that is determined to make it regardless of who said what. A brand that has had no sort of funding or exposure from any other big name. This could easily be the very best day of my life! The begining of it all! I just hope broadcast doesn't get postponed/canceled or anything along those lines. *touch wood* Deuces! Keep it 27degrees cool!

T(hree)-Pain

I'm convinced Mr Autotune has some sort of weird fascination with people's hands being opposite to the ground.

I noticed this after watching DJ Khaled's All I Do Is Win (video) for the umpteenth time on Channel O this morning.

I realised as I was frnatically throwing my hands in the air and singing along, that T-Pain has entertained this idea a couple times before.

T-Pain
He has mentioned the phrase "hand in the air" in all three of his latest music videos. This must be a world record of some sorts!

Case in point... I specifically remember him saying "Throw your hands in the air, home-girl take your motherf***ing shirt off" on his first single Take Your Shirt Off (video link); I then went on to remember his autotuned voice uttering the same words in another song called Reverse Cowgirl (video link), where he candidly says "Throw your hands in the air and go hee-haa, hee-haaaaaaa". Sounds weird when you read it, maybe as you were reading that, the tune played in your head. We can only hope...

Anyway, this is no big deal really, unless he's trying to expose some subculture of people who recklessly throw their hands in the air for no apparent reason. Either way, we loving the music Mr Pain.

I would also like to highlight the fact that I love the DJ Khaled video. And this has nothing to do with the fact that the killa hook & chorus keep my arms fit and in good working condition. I love the two cars in the background: The matte black Chevy Camaro and it's white counterpart.
If for any reason, you feel the need to reward me for this awesome praise of your lyrical abilities, I will gladly accept either one of the two cars. (I've attached pictures for your convenience!)


Thanking you in advance.

The one, the only... Paper!
Deuces!
