The first round of the NBA Playoffs is officially over and teams that were predicted to move to the second round all folded to a disappointing finish. Houston, Denver, Lakers, Clippers, Milwaukee, Boston, Atlanta and Brooklyn, will all have some serious team reconstructions to do over the summer?

Injuries to key players undeniably played a BIG factor into this years NBA season period. The first round of the Playoffs saw an end to an era and old rivalries decimated to this “New World Order” that the NBA as unleashed in the Playoffs. Now the question remains, which one of these teams will fold and rebuild or stick to their original Blue Print?

The summer of 2013 will unquestionably be an important one concerning any one of these teams. Let the Conference finals begin!

This music Game we live in can either break you or make you. REAL TALK! Some People come and go in this Game without ever being notice or appreciated. But once you’ve figured out the ins and outs of the business, the sky becomes your only limit. Jemaine Dupri did just that and never looked back. For those who don’t know or haven’t heard of JD, here is a quick run down. JD is a musical genius and one who’s worn many hats in the Game and broke a lot of records in the Business. He’s a Producer, Songwriter, Rapper and CEO of his own Record Label So So Def Recording.

From 1992 till this present day, JD has help guide some of the careers of quite a few artists of the likes of, Kris Kross, Xscape, TLC, The Brat, Bow Wow and also worked and produce for the likes of Usher, Jagged Edge, Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson, and Monica just to name a few…Jemaine has a keen ear for music and a crazy eye for talent REAL TALK! With that being said you peeps should look up some of his newer artist coming out of the So So Def staples with the likes of Dondria, Leah Labelle and Fresco Kane. These kats along side JD are destined to hit the charts and cement their name in the Game just like his entire previous artist on So So Def.
