Michael Jordan Makes Interesting Claim About Social Media Era

Michael Jordan is easily one of the greatest basketball players of all-time, and according to most people, he is the best, without question. Jordan got to play during the 80s and 90s which were a simpler time for athletes as they didn’t have to deal with the pitfalls of social media. For instance, a player such as LeBron James has to deal with everything the fans are saying, while also seeing everything he says become a huge story and narrative on Twitter.

During an interview with Cigar Aficionado, Jordan had an honest answer while speaking about the social media age and how he would have been able to handle it all. As he explains in the video below, athletes like Tiger Woods proved to him that Jordan wouldn’t be the player he was in the 90s, if social media had existed at the time.

“Tiger [Woods] played at his peak somewhere toward the end of my career. Then, what changed from that time-frame to now is social media – Twitter and all those types of things,” Jordan said. “And that has invaded the personalities and personal time of individuals. It’s to the point where some people have been able to utilize it to their financial gain and things of that nature. But for someone like myself – and this is what Tiger deals with – I don’t know if I could’ve survived in this Twitter [era], where you don’t have the privacy that you’d want and what seems to be very innocent can always be misinterpreted.”

This is an extremely honest assessment of himself, although we’re sure Jordan would have been just as dominant, albeit just a tiny bit less focused. Either way, it would be fun to see prime Jordan competing against the likes of prime LeBron.

One Yen unveils where alternative rock meets the search for something more with “Vesica Piscis (Open)”

One Yen

One Yen‘s latest release, “Vesica Piscis (Open)”  is an emotionally charged and provocative album of alternative rock that is as compelling as it is powerful. With driving rhythms, layered guitars, atmospheric textures, and soaring melodic vocals, the song captures the spirit of late ‘90s alt-rock while embracing the big sound of modern alt-rock.

Named after the ancient symbol created by the intersection of two circles, Vesica Piscis immediately positions itself as more than a typical rock anthem. It explores awakening, self-discovery, duality, and man’s eternal quest for meaning outside the material world. Instead of giving easy answers, the lyrics begin an ongoing dialogue about identity, consciousness, and transcendence.

Musically, the song keeps up a compelling sense of momentum throughout. The song is built around a powerful foundation of energetic instrumentation, with atmospheric layers providing enough space for reflection. That mix of power and nuance ensures that the ride is never so enthralling that it loses its emotional heft.
