Been Gone For A Minute, Now I'm Back With The Jump Off

I've been out of pocket these past couple of days, well weeks. Sheesh. I know it's a little slow because there's not much going on with the boys. Michael is filming season 5 of Friday Night Lights. Maestro hit me up on Twitter saying that his episodes of Lie To Me will air sometime in June. Tristan will start filming the 3rd season of 90210 in June....I think.  And Red Tails? Well I don't know when that's coming out. I don't know what's going on with Jermaine or Julito.  I'm really excited for Mike because FNL starts this week. You can check out this video where he talks about being part of FNL and gives some background info on "Vince".

Justin Beiber & Sean Kingston Sing Over Maestro's Beat

Via Maestro's Facebook page

Sean & Justin are singing over Maestro's beat. It would be dope if he produced a track for Tristan ft. Julito & Jermaine on the hook. hahahaha It could be called "Corner Boys". It's late. I'm being facetious. Good night.

New Maestro Headshots

I don't know what's going on with him as of right now. I know he's been in LA since July, but that's about it. Stay tuned

Corner Boys: The Wrap Up

I know I have been bad with the updates that's when life & work & twitter gets in the way. So I'll tell you what's going on.

Tristan is back in NY til Friday because he has to do the Upfronts for 90210 & then he is going back to Prague. He'll be back in LA in June.





I know I haven't been posting too much about 90210& that's because I don't give a rats ass about that show. They wont even throw Tristan a bone. Why wont 90210 let Tristan Wilds be GREAT!?? I am no longer excited to see what they will do for the second season cause of how much they fucked up his character. I am just going to patiently wait for Red Tails to hit theatres.


Jermaine is in NY filming his movie Twelve starring: Emma Roberts, Zoe Kravitz, and Rory Culkin. Sounds good.



Maestro will be moving to LA after he graduates from HS to further his career.



Julito is currently working on a new movie called Loso's Way. I'm assuming this has something to do with Fabolous' new album of the same name.


Michael is in Prague right now working on Red Tails. The boys were just in Rome, Italy last week w/ Marcus Paulk, & other cast members from the new movie.

When Corner Boys Catch the TwitterBug!

Everyone's on TWITTER. Jermaine and Tristan, Julito & Maestro, Hassan "WeeBay"Johnson, Panama aka Baltimore Street Bully all have twitter pages, click the names.

Everybody's a Blogger

I suggest he sticks to a solid colored template like mine. He seems to be following the same formula as every other celeb blogger; he blogs about fashion, music, etc. I hope he blogs about his career.

NOTE TO MAESTRO

I was tryna post a comment on ya blog, but it didn't work. Anywho, you need to get a sitemeter.com counter on ya blog. It keeps track of the traffic that your blog gets. It's pretty damn dope. We need more Vlogs! You haven't posted on since July. Let us know how your situation with So So Def is going. Don't forget to tell us about your New Edition biopic. I see you're following the same formula as other celeb bloggers, blogging about fashion and music, just don't forget to blog about what you're doing.

Wire Tap: If Rappers Were Characters From The Wire

It’s been a year and I still miss The Wire and all its characters. We said our final goodbyes in 2008 but recent endless viewings of the DVD box set had me feeling sentimental and inspired. It’s the “Who would play me in a movie?” game further realized and repurposed, i.e. which rappers would play characters on The Wire? So, without further adieu…

I can't say I agree w/ the Corey Gunz x Randy Wagstaff one, it shoulda been Namond Brice.

Maestro Chats With the Students on the South Side

Here's an excerpt from the article where Maestro talks about teenagers drinking and doing drugs.

“It’s not bettering my life in any way, so why waste my time. If I wanted to do it, I have from age 21 until the day I die to do it. So, is it really that long of a wait for me to start murdering my liver? Trust me, when you get older you’re going to have enough problems anyway, so it’s not worth it.”

At the end the article it states that Maestro will be starring in an yet-untitled New Edition biopic playin a young Ralph Tresvant. Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah Boyeeeeee. I heard about this LAST year, & was so excited about it. I'm too young to remember New Edition in their hayday, but I remember BBD, and when New Edition had their reunion album out. I am too excited about this!

Maestro's Bad Habits

Me & him are two of a kind cos I stay switching my shit up. LOL

Island/So So Def Showcase

This clip came out back in January, and I thought it was pretty damn funny. I really want something to come of this, cos you know how JD is. If you don't generate enough buzz or sales he forgets about you. Then again, that's pretty much every damn CEO of a label.

I hit Maestro up on Facebook earlier this year and asked him about the showcase. He said it went well, so now we just have to wait and see what's next. He's already made a YouTube channel, but hasn't posted a new video up in five months.



I wish Juli was there, that would have made my day to see the "Boys of Summer" together again.
