    ‘Mulan’ Trailer: Live-Action 2020 Version Is Kick Ass & Resembles the Animated Film

    I have to admit that i have watched Mulan 1998, the animated film at least a hundred times, so I am truly looking forward to to this live action version dropping March 27, 2020. in.Askmen, “The similarities between the animated movie and the live-action version severe most ties (mid way through the trailer). From training to become one of the men in the Emperor’s army to fighting Xian Lang in hand to hand combat, Mulan changes the definition of bringing honour to a family and…

    QUEEN & SLIM (Official Trailer 2) – Watch It Now!

    Through the title characters, (who are actually unnamed until the last moments of the film) Lena Waithe manages to illuminate the complexities and vastness of the Black experience, while zeroing in on two very specific people. Jodie Turner-Smith is mesmerizing as a buttoned-up, high achieving defense attorney who’s led by an intense desire for justice. Daniel Kaluuya is flawless as Slim. He is more easy-going, and doesn’t expect too much from anyone. He relishes the simple things in life like faith and family and accepts the way things are without much…

    G-EAZY ft. Gunna – “I Wanna Rock” (Official Video)

    All I can say about G-EAZY’S new hit… is that he drops some serious bars. That shot at Halsey 💀 “ No Limit all I got is Me, Myself, and I, when I said it was her & I that shit was a lie .” Ok G-Eazy, we hear ya! This beat does remind me of Venom by Eminem but I love the raw unfiltered lyrics. Even the chorus has a raw sentiment, a G-Eazy reply to the seemingly large amount of hate he seems…

    ROYCE 5’9 – “Black Savage” ft. Sy Ari Da Kid, White Gold, CyHi The Prynce & T.I. (Official Video)

    Before you ask, the sample song in Royce da 5’9′s banger is Kothbiro by Ayub Ogada from Kenya. The sample says the rain is coming, bring the cattle back home….that’s a language from the Luo Tribe in Kenya. Black Savage is so inspiring. I’m proud of this. My bottom line review of Royce’s Black Savage? Royce killed this, point blank. CyHi had something to say, and TI can literally read a dictionary to me and I’ll be down with it. Sick production, Royce, sick verse,…

    “Crawl” (Trailer) & Key West Film Festival – details via @lisafordblog

    Ok so a giant alligator coming to eat people during a hurricane may not scare you, but scenarios like this scare the hell out of me! I’ve lived through many hurricanes and can’t imagine having to worry about a giant man-eating alligator on top of everything else you go through to survive a wild storm. Crawl is a great film brought to you by the same Producer of Evil Dead and Don’t Breathe, Sam Raimi, as well as Craig Flores and Alexandre Aja. Crawl was…

    KURT COBAIN – Rare Footage of One of His Final Interviews (Video) via @lisafordblog #FBF

    This is possibly the best interview I have ever seen. Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain is authentic. He is not trying to think of witty things to say, to make an impression, to control the viewer’s reaction, which is the CONVENTIONAL way to give an interview. He does listen. His answers aren’t rehearsed. Authenticity is so rare, crucial to the ability to make authentic art. It’s hard to believe Kurt existed at one point in time. He’s almost like a mystical figure. He got really popular overnight…

    Troyman Bodied His Performance – Streetlight | Rhythm + Flow | Netflix (Video) via @lisafordblog

    This song has never left my soul since watching TROYMAN’s performance on the grand finale of Netflix’s Rhythm & Flow. I had to find Streetlight on YouTube and keep it on replay because TROYMAN KILLED IT!  The fact he barely had any time to get ready for this challenge only to come out and still murder it is impressive. His energy, his flow, his voice, the rhythm with the beat, the swag he brought, was a real live performance.  Troyman catches people’s attention while throwing…

    Netflix’s RHYTHM & FLOW’s – Londynn B “I Can’t Change” (Video) via @lisafordblog

    So I’ve been watching Netflix’s Rhythm & Flow for a few days now and I have to say that I’m pleasantly surprised. I’m not usually into music competition shows because a lot of times, talented people get eliminated for frivolous reasons which makes it all a hard watch for me. However, the Rhythm & Flow series is nice because the judges; T.I., Chance The Rapper, and Cardi B, are a dynamic trio who truly brings something special to a music competition show. It’s apparent that…

    BAD BOYS FOR LIFE (Watch New Trailer) Starring Will Smith & Martin Lawrence via @lisafordblog

    Who remembers going to go see Bad Boys 1 when it first came out back in 1995? The Bad Boys movie franchise is still the most badass thing even today. What you got with the precious two films was great acting, great action, and great scripts. Who would’ve thought that two comedic actors like Will Smith and Martin Lawrence could be such great action stars. We’re so looking forward to the 3rd film Bad Boys For Life to be released to complete the trilogy. Sony…
