Any other rap crew attempting to do a sketch comedy show like Loiter Squad might fall flat on their collective faces, but judging from this trailer it looks like Odd Future might be able to pull it off.
The show featuring Tyler, The Creator, Jasper, Taco, and Lionel starts Sunday March 25th on Adult Swim.

While out in the UK recently Bow Wow stopped by Tim Westwood's show for a Q and A session. He was asked who the hottest producers in the game are right now. His answer revealed how the beat to "Stay Schemin" slipped through his fingers.
"Jahlil Beats hands down," he said, regarding the hottest producer. "Jahlil did Meek Mill's 'I'm A Boss'... did a couple joints for myself. His little brother the Beat Bully is the dude who did 'Schemin' which is crazy because if you look on the blog on the youtube I had the 'Schemin' beat first. A lot of people don't know that. I just used the beat for the webisode series just to play while me and Meek were in the studio," he explained. "I don't know how it reached back to Ross and them, but as soon as I heard it I was like, 'You gave that beat to Ross?' And he was just like, 'I didn't know if you was gon' use it. I thought you just used it for the...' I said 'aghhh.' Look at it, it happens."

You gotta give it to Sacha Baron Cohen, he knows how to promote a movie. The actor showed up on the red carpet of the Oscars Sunday night dressed as Admiral Aladeen from his upcoming movie The Dictator. Flanked by two female "security" members, Cohen was interviewed by Ryan Seacrest.
“It gave me the opportunity to bring my dear friend and double tennis partner Kim Jong Il. It was his dream to come to the Oscars and be sprinkled over the red carpet and Halle Berry's chest again." Cohen told the E! Entertainment host, explaining why he had an urn with him.
Cohen then pretended to trip and spilled the fake ashes all over Seacrest. Check out the video below.

Curren$y and Styles P have released the official cover for their upcoming EP #The1st28. The project is an unexpected surprise for hip-hop fans and will contain 5 songs that Spitta and The Ghost recorded in the last couple of months.

The song is off of his upcoming fourth studio album, Only One Rida (Part 2).
ORLANDO, Fla. — Minnesota forward Kevin Love won the 3-point Shootout during the NBA’s All-Star Saturday festivities.
Love was consistent throughout, but had to survive a tiebreaker in the first round and sweat out the last few shots from Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant to pull out the 17-14 victory in the final.
Love tied for third in Round 1 with 18, along with Miami’s Mario Chalmers, but beat him 5-4 in a tiebreaker. Defending champion James Jones led all shooters in the opening round with 22 and Durant was next with 20.
Orlando’s Ryan Anderson just missed eliminating both Love and Chalmers, totaling 17 after missing his final 2-point money ball.
Love and Durant both had 16 in Round 2 to advance to the finals, with Jones posting 12.
●DUNK CONTEST: Utah’s Jeremy Evans won the Slam Dunk Contest at the NBA’s All-Star Saturday night festivities.
Evans, who got into the competition as a replacement for injured New York guard Iman Shumpert, earned 29 percent of 3 million text message votes cast by fans.
This was the first year that fans had total control of voting, a major tweak from past competitions.
Evans earned the win over Houston’s Chase Budinger, Indiana’s Paul George and Minnesota’s Derrick Williams.
Evans dunked with a camera on his head, dunked two basketballs while jumping over a seated assistant and then donned a Karl Malone jersey while dunking over mailman-dressed comedian Kevin Hart.
This year’s contest lasted three rounds, but the four participants had only two minutes per round to complete a single dunk.
●SKILLS CHALLENGE: San Antonio point guard Tony Parker won the Skills Competition of the NBA’s All-Star Saturday night festivities.
Parker was the only one ofsix participants to break 30 seconds in the first round (29.2) and this time of 32.8 in the final run on the obstacle course was better than Boston’s Rajon Rondo (34.6) and New Jersey’s Deron Williams (41.4).
Williams won the competition in 2008, which involves participants moving through a dribbling circuit, successfully throwing chest passes through a hanging tire and driving for a layup.
●SHOOTING STARS: Team New York had the touch from outside and won the Shooting Stars event to open the NBA’s All-Star Saturday night festivities.
Former Knicks star Allan Houston nailed his third attempt at a half-court shot to give his team consisting of current Knicks guard Landry Fields and Cappie Pondexter of the WNBA’s New York Liberty the victory.
The winner completed the shooting course in 37.3 seconds in the final round. It was better than the 47.6 posted by the Team Texas trio of former Houston Rockets star and TNT analyst Kenny Smith, current Rocket Chandler Parsons and Sophia Young of the San Antonio Silver Stars.
Team Orlando and Atlanta posted the slowest times of Round 1 and were eliminated.
