Legendary NBA coach Phil Jackson has coached 2 of the greatest NBA players to have ever played the game. For years he's dodged the primary question most sports fans & reporters have desperately wanted him to answer. Now that he's making the media rounds promoting his new book, Phil Jackson is finally speaking out. Phil Jackson compares Air Jordan to the Black Mamba in the above video of his interview with Jay Leno. Jay referenced Jackson's book, Eleven Rings: The Soul of Success (due out May 21, 2013; available for pre-order at Amazon) in guiding their talk in this direction. In it, and in the above clip, Coach Jackson declares that both Jordan and Bryant are world class competitors; matched up in several aspects, but there are key differences, according to one of the few men in the world who can really say so. Coach 'Zen Master' also talks about how he set up a meeting between the two and his near-return to the Los Angeles Lakers' bench. Kobe recently took to twitter & didn't exactly seem too pleased with his former coach's comparisons. I'd have to agree with Phil though....

'Hip-Hop artist Chen Lo talks about his recently recorded remix of Jay Z's "Open Letter" and the reason behind it. Chen Lo explains his understanding of the 'Open Letter' song and how it relates to his international experience with Hillary Clinton, the State Department, CBS, Aljazeera English and the U.S. Government's use of Hip-Hop as a chess piece in its game of foreign affairs.
