Prior to 2001, Apple was a struggling computer manufacturer, trying to deal with Windows based machines and software; many have written them off, but they dropped the iPod in 2001, and it has to be one of the defining items of the 2000’s. Since launching on October 23, 2001, the iPod has sold over 240 million units worldwide as of January 2010. Here are some creative iPod digital art renditions.
Love him or hate him, Kobe Bryant seems to be that dude that can reach in his bag of tricks and pull out something amazing. Anyone one with thousands of sites and blogs dedicated to his demise must be doing something right, right? This L.A. Laker perennial All-Star pulled off a ridiculous shot last week against Duane Wade (clip below), so I figured that you gotta give a player his due when he gets it in – and season after season, Kobe Bryant has lifted the NBA out of the ‘Jordan-less’ era, and I am sure that David Stern isn’t complaining with the revenue the league is bringing in.
So here is some Kobe Bryant fan art that shows off his athleticism and that smile that is warming to some on the West Coast, but is hated by most.
As December hits, winter arrives; I personally don’t like the winter – with the snow, the cold, the bad drivers, the traffic. However, there is beauty in everything in life, and I found some great Winter-like art that will be sure to inspire you on even the coldest, bleakest day.
I guess Jay is at a level where he can get a dedicated post of abstract art designed by his fans. The Blueprint 3 continues to do extremely well even in this rocky economic climate — but I guess good music, is good music. And it is something that the game has been missing for awhile. Which goes to show you that hip-hop is not dead, the recording industry is only in as much trouble as the garbage albums that its members put out.
Like that movie the ‘field of dreams’ or something, ‘build it, and they will come’ – guess that is why Jay-Z made the Blueprint; and had to make 3 editions for the game.

I thought it was photoshopped, but apparently the cover was designed by something called ‘humans’ who specialize in something called ‘art’.
Sometimes funny, often condescending, but always real from the heart, Life in B Major is my expression of emotions & thoughts through the lens of the Nerban - the Techie Nerd with some Urban Swag and Hip-Hop Culture. Meaning, I know the lyrical differences between a Lil Wayne & Jay-Z, and I also know how to setup a dual boot OS with Vista & Linux. That's fly.
Anyhow, I got a mounting task as I manage to bounce back from a failed business partnership, dealing with WACK people, re-igniting my techie hustle, loving hip-hop music, but having an opinion on the turds and the system that tries to mess it up, AND lifting up and helping others to realize their own potential - while also refining and crafting my own.
