  1. Earl Sweatshirt is arguably the best rapper in the ascendant California skate-rap crew Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All, and his online album EARL is one of the group's defining documents. But he's been mysteriously absent since OFWGKTA came to internet prominence last year. The other members lead "Free Earl" chants and audience singalongs to his songs at shows, but they won't say anything about why he's missing. Naturally, rumors have swirled: He's in jail, he's at boot camp, he's dead. But now, Complex magazine believes they've located Earl, whose real name is Thebe Kgositsile, at a center for at-risk American kids in Samoa. This has not been confirmed, however, and is being disputed by other members of OFWGKTA.

     

    Complex followed a long and complicated trail of song lyrics, Facebook posts, and emails to find what looks like a picture of Earl at a school called the Coral Reef Academy. According to a kid on Facebook who claims to be Earl's classmate, Earl's mother sent him there because she didn't like his music or his "behavior toward her." The whole story is up at Complex.

     

    The magazine clarifies that they don't know whether Earl is actually there currently, and Odd Future's camp hasn't responded to inquiries. And Odd Future leader Tyler, the Creator disputes the story on his Twitter: "Sick As [expletive], But I Just Came On This To Say That Complex Shit Is False Info. Sucks Waking Up To Some Shit Like That."

    Tyler said it wasn't true, but I thought I'd post this anyway.

  2. Wow. Manu is HUGE for them. I dont see them winning Game 1 at all. Duncan is gonna have to dominate, but hel have his hands full with Randolph, not to mention Gasol. Grizzlies missing Rudy Gay is made up for with the Spurs missing Manu.

    We're been playing without Rudy for the entire second half of the season, and we still managed to make the playoffs and play some pretty good basketball. Loosing Rudy just put our focus on defense.

  3. Lol @ you guys buying into that. His one at UMASS was vacated because Camby took money from an agent? That happens everywhere lmfao. His other ones because Rose didn't take the SAT? I'm sure that happens with regularity for a lot of the top players, as well. He still physically got them there. Could care less if the NCAA (which, let's be honest, probably the most hypocritcal organization/association of all time) "vacated" them. No one really cares if the did anyway...People still consider him one of the top College coaches...

    Ever heard of World Wide Wes? Runs an agency in Detroit and is magically one of Calipari's good friends. Derick Rose is from Chicago, but I wonder where he took his ACT? How about Detroit, the same place where Cal's good friend Wes resides. I don't care if the NCAA is yet to punish Calipari. He has [expletive]ed over every program he has worked in and he just happens to leave every time the shit is about to hit the fan. He'll stay at Kentucky, probably win a couple of National Championships with one-and-dones who can't read the name on their jersey, but I'll never see him for anymore than the slime ball he actually is.

  4. If Memphis plays like they did against Arizona on a consistent basis and Joe Jackson plays like he did at the end of the season, the sky is the limit for this team. They were one of the youngest teams in the country last season, and they return everyone minus Will Coleman and bring a top ten freshman in Adonis Thomas. This team is only going to get better.

    Mod please move this to the College Basketball Section

  6. This is smart if there is a lockout. His stock is only going to go down next year because I kindly doubt he repeats this year in a consistent basis. Up till the NCAA Tournament, Walker was really starting to become a volume scorer. I still think he'll be a dominant scorer if he stays another year, but it'll also gives scouts another chance to see his flaws. His stock right now is as high as it will ever get.

  7. I don't think we can even begin to question Eminem impact on Odd Future's music. Their songs are just as raw and straight-up as Slim Shady and Marshall Mathers LP Eminem.

     

     

    FREE EARL

     

    Seriously he's the best lyricist of the group and is now in boarding school cause of mommy. [expletive] steve harvey.

    It's funny because Earl is this 16 year old rapping about drug use, rape, and murder. His mom gets hold of his music and sends him to boarding school. These guys have so much talent for their age.
