Uniforms: DJ Khaled hosting Michigan Basketball Jordan launch on 9/30
Blowing up on twitter. Another big unveil event.
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- When Nike, Inc. and Jordan Brand began their partnership with the University of Michigan this year, special launch events captivated audiences and sports media. Another such event is slated for Friday, Sept. 30, when U-M's Jumpman basketball uniforms will be unveiled at Crisler Center.
The 7 p.m. event is free and open to the public. Due to the anticipated crowd, attendees are required to register on the Nike special events website.
To unveil the uniforms, Jordan Brand is bringing a high-energy celebration to feature the men's and women's basketball teams and producer DJ Khaled. The event will also be the Wolverines basketball teams' first look at the new uniform designs amidst a full night of programming, including musical performances and team skills challenges.
U-M coaches John Beilein and Kim Barnes Arico will join DJ Khaled to lead the event with community participation throughout the evening.

Yeah for the older folks, that's spelled right...
Says an older folk!
September 23rd, 2016 at 3:16 PM ^
Only because they don't want him to yell his name at the beginning of songs

Just trying to seperate himself from all of the other DJs.
September 23rd, 2016 at 3:38 PM ^
He doesn't really seperate himself though. Producers and DJs have been doing this since the late 80s. The name scream is annoying as hell. At least do an interesting audio sample with your name like Statik Selektah or something.
September 23rd, 2016 at 3:51 PM ^
Mustard on the beat, hoe.
THE INTRUDERS!
METRO BOOMIN' WANT SOME MORE, @%$*%!
...if young metro don't trust you, I'm gon' shoot you.
DRAMATIC!
CLUEMANATTIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!
Mike Will Made It....
GET FAMILIAR!
Listen to the track, BITCH!
Bangledesh...
THIS ISSSSS.....
WHOOOOOOOOOOOO KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIID!!!!!
JUST BLAZE!!!
Maybach music.
(and by the way, I think they're called "drops")
Wow, why do I know all of this? You can switch the conversation to country and I can keep up as well. I can't play any music, I can't sing, but music and Michigan football is my life. Love them both with an insane amount of passion.
September 23rd, 2016 at 3:59 PM ^
I always called them tags. Get Familiar is a great one.
September 23rd, 2016 at 4:30 PM ^
Wow!! Rap AND country?? You really do know music!!!!!!!!

My point was I'll listen to anything if I think it sounds good. And I listen to music all the time. That is all. I don't think I'm some music aficionado, I just knew what the poster was talking about with the drops/tags and could add some to the discussion.

There will never be a greater DJ tag than Trapaholics "Damn son where'd you find this?"
September 23rd, 2016 at 4:00 PM ^
Ah, 2007. The year Lil' Wayne ruled all of the universe.
The man had his own Billboard Top 100 songs of the year. For just him. Alone. Sheesh.
September 23rd, 2016 at 4:26 PM ^
Tha Carter III went stupid. One of the best rap albums of the last 20 years, maybe of all time.
September 23rd, 2016 at 6:30 PM ^
Oh man and that Wayne mixtape era before it. Lighter sound as announcement of artist is beyond all of this.
September 23rd, 2016 at 6:57 PM ^
You guys are stoned. "one of the best rap albums of the last 20 years" LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL. Good god. Lil Wayne has and always will be garbage.
September 23rd, 2016 at 7:22 PM ^
Sold 1 million in a week man, 3x platinum. Wayne's numbers don't care about your minority opinion.
September 23rd, 2016 at 9:55 PM ^
Sorry man, but Lil Wayne and "greatest of all time" should never be in the same sentence.
September 24th, 2016 at 2:23 AM ^
Who said GOAT?
Peak Wayne was prolific, always fun, and occasionally brilliant. Dude fell off a cliff, sure, but he was something to behold whether or not it was your jam.
Listen to No Cellings and try to have a bad time.
September 24th, 2016 at 9:10 AM ^
Mc Hammer and Vanilla Ice and New Kids on the Block sold more than Lil wayne, and I wouldn't call them good. Record sales mean nothing in terms of quality.
September 23rd, 2016 at 4:06 PM ^
Agreed....
September 23rd, 2016 at 3:57 PM ^
He was so 2015-2016.
September 23rd, 2016 at 3:58 PM ^
Ha I don't know why this made me laugh.
September 23rd, 2016 at 4:27 PM ^
Yay! I'm a self important twat! "DJ Khaled!" Don't forget me....please....I made this song....don't you like it??? No? It's top 40 nonsense targeted at the lowest common denominator of music listener??? "DJ Khaled!" In case you forgot again. Somebody love me....

All I want to know is if I can check out the hook while he revolves it.
September 23rd, 2016 at 4:33 PM ^
I have a beverage that is rather tepid.... Any ideas as to how to solve my quandary ?
September 23rd, 2016 at 4:25 PM ^
John Beilein? I think we know who he is without him yelling it out to us.
September 23rd, 2016 at 6:12 PM ^
I do the same thing when I start my staff meetings.
September 23rd, 2016 at 6:18 PM ^
He is the Kim Kardashian of rap, Doesn't really make beats or rap or make good music, yet is wildly popular. Meh, whatever, as long as it keeps us in the limelight.
September 23rd, 2016 at 7:17 PM ^
Older guy here and I just watched some of his videos. Other than yelling his name, what does he contribute to the music? Does he produce or write any of it?
September 23rd, 2016 at 8:42 PM ^
He produces and mixes it

September 23rd, 2016 at 3:16 PM ^
So, I guess people that do nothing more than play someone else's talent are now considered talent? Because they can say thier name before the song plays?
I just don't get kids, anymore... So stay the hell off my lawn!
September 23rd, 2016 at 3:27 PM ^
Considering he's a host...I would think this would be a VERY appropriate use of his talents.
Now if we hired him to be a musician...you'd have a point. But I read he's going to HOST the event.
So sorry, your saltiness doesn't work here. Please proceed to the Harbaugh/Wale thread or the Harbaugh/Migos thread.
They literally hired a guy to talk and play music who talks and plays music for a living. I'd say they got it spot on.
Edit: ...oh, and one more thing.
September 23rd, 2016 at 4:27 PM ^
This is my favorite gif of all time, always makes my day
September 23rd, 2016 at 8:14 PM ^
My only point was when did DJ's become the star of the show? They used to be the guy in the background that played music.
But hey, good job spinning that all out of proportion!
September 23rd, 2016 at 3:25 PM ^
He's a producer. I guess Quincy Jones had nothing to do with Michael Jackson's success?
September 23rd, 2016 at 3:27 PM ^
Quincy Jones wasn't a legit producer--he didn't yell his name out at the beginning of Thriller.
September 23rd, 2016 at 3:37 PM ^
Oh my, I wish he did

Only thing better would have been if he had done it on We Are The World.
