Prodigy & Alchemist Celebrate Release of Albert Einstein @ Griffin, NYC [The212 Recap Pics] NYC

A multitude of the industry’s elite gathered at Griffin Nightclub in New York City’s Meat Packing District on Monday night where Mobb Deep’s own Prodigy and producer extraordinaire Alchemist celebrated the release of their newest collaborative effort, Albert Einistein, which officially hit stores today. Bulldog Gin did the honors by providing the drinks for the open bar, as attendees took full advantage and partied the night away to Hav and P’s infamous classics, which was being spun by none other than Stretch Armstrong who was on the ones and twos. As the oldies “Shook Ones (Pt. II)” and “Eye For An Eye” rang loud and clear, fellow party-goers Ms. Drama (of VH1’s Gossip Game), Dallas Penn and ThisIs50’s Jack Thriller were in a rather festive mood as the acclaimed Queens rapper’s gems blew through the speakers at the extravagant lounge.

Guests who also came out to support included rappers Grafh, Wyclef Jean, David Downer of XclusivesZone, Kilo of Da Duo, The212′s own Young Kingz, and videographers from EME as well. In case you missed out on all the action, we have you covered with a photo and video recap of the event—which, of course, is down below. Photos snapped by Sam Eltosam of Seltosamarts.

NBA To Allow Teams To Sell and Display Ads On The Court and Backboards Next Season

NBA To Allow Teams To Sell and Display Ads On The Court and Backboards Next Season NYC

The NBA will allow advertising on both the court and the backboards for the first time ever, starting next season. This comes after the news that players’ jerseys can also be used for ad space. However, the ladder idea has sort of stalled out for the moment.

A team can place a company’s logo on the floor in front of both team benches, but it has to be a decal, and players will be entitled to a portion of the profits.

The idea was proposed by deputy commissioner Adam Silver, and will be evaluated over a one-year period to determine whether the league wants to make it a permanent piece of space to sell in the future.

Super Bowl XLVIII festivities will take place in the Big Apple from January 29th to February 1st of 2014, and the city has some major plans for it! “Super Bowl Boulevard” will sit between 34th and 44th Streets, and feature things like an eight-lane, 180-foot long, 58-foot-high toboggan ride (between 40th and 41st streets), a video mapping show to view footage from NFL Films, and the Vince Lombardi Trophy displayed in a custom tent with glass walls. Above is an artist’s rendering of how the scene will look.

Fatburger’s new location in Murray Hill has officially opened, marking the LA-based burger chain’s first location in NYC since the 90′s!

The chain plans to open nine more locations in the New York area over the next few years, but no locations have been determined as of yet. This one will be open seven days a week, from 7 a.m. to 1 a.m., and is one of only two Fatburgers in the U.S. that serves liquor as well!

Less Than Half Of Would Be Drivers In NYC Passed Road Test In 2012 NYC

Less than half of would-be drivers passed the road test in New York City in 2012. Only 46% of the city’s 181,196 people that attempted actually found success, an alarming drop since previous years

Experts say the drop is due to schools cutting driver’s education classes and teens failing to properly practice before taking the test.

However, DMV records show the highest success rate is in Brooklyn. So potential drivers, you may want to make your way to that borough!

Jason Kidd Interested In Brooklyn Nets Coaching Position NYC

Jason Kidd is being “seriously considered” for the position of head coach with the Brooklyn Nets. The retired NBA star met with Nets’ general manager Billy King on Monday to pitch the idea, revealing part of his plan would be hiring former Nets coach Lawrence Frank to serve as as a top assistant coach.

The meeting with King was apparently just supposed to be an open-ended discussion about Kidd working for the Nets, but he is determined to convince King that he’s ready to coach after his retirement last week.

Despite heavy interest in Kidd, the team will interview Brian Shaw on Wednesday. However, a decision is likely to be made this week.
