Jay-Z for president!!!

[DDotOmen.com] Jay-Z - D.O.A. (Official Video) from DDotOmen on Vimeo.

this guy is doing way too much. he's killing it right now. here is jay-z with the video for d.o.a. (death of auto-tune). just so you all catch it when it happens: hova looks at his hand of cards and says, "oh, wow. WOW!" then the next scene, 3:59, flips to him hooping with his friend, the real life Jesus Shuttlesworth. i say he gets one with shaq andthen he takes the game over in 2010 with Brooklyn Nets.

update: he also blows up a gang of Louis Roederer's cristal champagne.

i think my roommate created a following with his premier video of him cooking. now it is 7:30am and he is kicking it showing off his vocal capabilities to a classic pearl jam song

Vegas '09

this is the P5 lounge at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas. it was created by dave barker and sean rommero when they wouldn't stop jumping up and down in the elevator and it broke. we were stuck for 20 min and it was hot. they ended up prying the doors open and we had to climp up and out on to the next floor. below is the view from bottle service at the new club miX at mandalay bay. our server was a fucking dime piece named Desirae and was so exclusive she wouldn't let us take pictures with her. haha.

~The girl's name Desirae \d(e)-si-rae\ is a variant of Desiree (French), and the meaning of Desirae is "much desired". who would have thought.
