New Video Shows Officials Delaying First Aid to Dying Tamir Rice

Nike Mag With Power Lacing to Arrive This Year
For a while now, there have been rumblings throughout the underground about the potential for a Nike Air Mag release with the mythical power lacing system. Well, at this year’s Agenda Trade Show, none other than the designer of the shoe himself, Tinker Hatfield, confirmed the rumors.
When pressed on the topic, Hatfield said that his team is working as hard as possible to get the Nike Mag with Power Laces out in 2015, but didn’t give a release date. This is huge news for those of you who missed out on the first round of the shoe. Unfortunately, this time they will be far more sought after. If you’re still skeptical about the release, check out the patent papers below that give a rough sketch of the shoe’s change in design.
One thing to note however is the removal of the word Air in the name of the shoe. The automatic lacing system will take up the space that was once occupied by the air-cushioning unit, which immediately brings the question of comfort to mind. Don’t worry though; we’re sure that Hatfield knows what he’s doing. He designed the kicks for Marty McFly to wear in ‘Back to the Future II,’ after all.

Eddie Murphy Sounds Surprisingly Good on Reggae Song 'Oh Jah Jah'
Eddie Murphy is serious about returning to music. Today, the actor and comedian releases a new reggae track called ‘Oh Jah Jah.’ Now before you go thinking that the actor couldn’t possibly sound good tapping into the island roots, think again. The effort is surprisingly good.
“Goodness gracious lord have mercy / You know I never ever never let the devil get the best of me,” he delivers in a soothing croon accompanied by guitar licks, light drums and chimes. “We’re leavin’ Babylon and going back to Zion.”
The actor spoke to Rolling Stone about his music career, including the hiatus between his last release, ‘Love’s Alright’ in 1993, to now. “I stopped putting music out 20 years ago. I’ve never stopped making music. I’ve always had a facility for recording at the house. I’ve stayed in the studio for years and years,” he explains, refuting the idea that he gave up music for two decades. “I didn’t want to be one of these motherf—ers dropping tracks on some ego s–t, trying to be the actor-singer.”
‘Oh Jah Jah’ will be commercially released on Jan. 27. Previously, Eddie dropped ‘Red Light’ with Snoop Dogg and the love-inspired track ‘Promise (You Won’t Break My Heart)‘ in 2013.
What do you think of Eddie Murphy’s reggae tune? Tell us your thoughts below.

Iggy Azalea has been feeling the heat from artists and haters alike for receiving countless awards nominations like Best Rap Album at the 2015 Grammys and beating out rappers with storied careers like Jay Z and Drake for Favorite Hip-Hop Artist at the People’s Choice Awards. However, she does have one friend on her side.
In a new interview with Billboard, Kendrick Lamar defends the Aussie rapper and says she has a God-given right to rap. “She’s doing her thing,” Lamar tells Billboard in his cover story for the publication. “Let her. People have to go through trials and tribulations to get where they at. Do your thing, continue to rock it, because obviously God wants you here.”
K. Dot also touches upon the controversy around his Best Rap Album loss at the 2014 Grammys — Macklemore won the honor. “I appreciate [the Grammys] recognizing me,” Lamar says. “That’s not my overall goal… It’s best to just go and enjoy the festivities.”
Macklemore famously texted an apology to Kendrick after “robbing” him of the award. The West Coast MC feels the Seattle native is “a genuine dude” and wishes him “much success” in his career.
