In his first appearance in-front of the home crowd in Washington D.C., the Wizards Rookie phenom teaches the NBA how to dougie and then goes on to fall only one steal shy of his first triple double in only his 3rd game and ultimately leads the Wizards to their first win of the season by scoring 29 points and adding 13 assists and 9 steals. Good work John Wall AKA “Washington Wall” AKA the “Great Wall of Chinatown”.

During the filming of Transformers 3 on location in the Nation’s Capitol on October 11th a D.C. Police department SUV crashed into the 2010 Yellow Chevy Camaro known as “Bumblebee”. Despite the accident their were no serious injuries to the drivers (does Bumblebee require a driver LOL) of both vehicles.
As a D.C. native and long time Transformers fan I have a funny suspicion that there is “more than meets the eye” here! I suspect this may have been the work of Megatron and the Decepticons…stay tuned…

Posted: October 8, 2010 by Maurice in Cars, Entertainment, Hip Hop, Maurice, RapTags: ashton martin music, chrisette michele, Drake, Rick Ross, Teflon Don
That’s right Maurice and Marquess have declared “Ashton Martin Music” the official jam of the weekend! Just because you don’t own an Ashton Martin doesn’t exclude you from bumping this joint in your Chevy Tahoe, Saturn, or your Honda Accord, hell bump this b*tch on your Ipod while riding the train and call it “Metro Music”.
The latest single from Rick Ross’ album “Teflon Don” features the vocals of Chrisette Michele along with Drake. However, the real star of this track is the J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League who produced the exceptional beat. Make sure you crank this one up to fully enjoy the J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League’s production as you bump this jam and enjoy the weekend. Peace!
A G.O.O.D. Look For Mos Def…
Posted: September 29, 2010 by Maurice in Arts & Events, Entertainment, Hip Hop, Maurice, Music, RapTags: g.o.o.d. music, good, Hip Hop, kanye, Kanye West, mos def, Music
Underground rapper and actor Mos Def has inked a deal with Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. music imprint. This is the latest in many big time signings for Kanye’s super stable of artists. Mr. West recently signed one half of the group Clipse Pusha T. This latest signing has many calling the G.O.O.D. music group the Miami Heat of the music industry. The current stable of G.O.O.D. music artists currently consists of Kanye West, John Legend, Common, Kid Cudi, Pusha T, Mos Def, Consequence, and r&b legend Charlie Wilson just to name a few.
For those who are unfamiliar with G.O.O.D. Music its not a record label its essentially a production group which artists belong. The group helps each artist find their own distribution deal. For example, Kanye owns and belongs to G.O.O.D music but his distribution comes through Def Jam whereas Kid Cudi is a G.O.O.D. music artists but his distribution is through Universal Motown.
One thing is for certain this is G.O.O.D. news to hip hop fans that look forward to hearing Mos Def’s lyrics and vocals over Kanye’s classic production. I know personally I would love to see a G.O.O.D. Music group album along the lines of Young Money’s “We Are Young Money”. I guess one can dream…LOL…

This is for all those who believe quality Hip Hop no longer exists. This proves that good music hasn’t gone extinct, you just have to know where to look (mauriceandmarquess.wordpress.com (-; ). Shouts out to Dom Kennedy and special shout out to J.Cole for not only lyrically lacing this track but for producing such a smooth beat. I’m sure Bun B is proud of this dedication track.
