KG is Low Key in Boston But in China He's Like the Beatles

Celtic's "Center" Kevin Garnett is an under the radar presence in the Boston area. He seldom makes personal appearances and has hardly been photographed out and about in the city over the past 5 years. In China, KG is a bonafide rockstar. This video is from a few years back when KG went on a promotional tour of China for Adidas and he was received with a Beatles like welcome.

Young Jinsu - It's Been Said

We don't put too much music up on this site, but I felt thought I'd promote this upcoming artist. Young Jinsu is a Rhode Island artist now making major moves out in Hollywood. Jinsu started in the game at the age of 4. I has heavy into the RI Hip Hop scenein the early 2000's and this kid was already rocking shows. He's paid major dues and has now developed into a unique style. Please check out his mixtape IT'S BEEN SAID and download it from Datpiff. Check out the new dance anthem Tim Tebow.
