Someone over at the Hip-Hop Game is breaking it down and giving us
the 411 on Jay-Z's "Cristal Killer", otherwise known as
Armand de Brignac, or "Ace" for short. Having never tasted the Champagne (and, in fact, having an aversion to Champagne, in general), I can't speak for its quality.
However, the product placement Jay-Z is executing seems to be suspicious. This stuff is obviously some cheap $40 rotgut that's been put in a shiny gold bottle with a nice logo on the front. It wouldn't surprise me if Jay-Z had partial ownership in the company, at this point.
The article does a good job of digging down into what's really going on with "Ace." According to the marketing materials, it's real big in France. But a few calls made to France and supposedly no one has ever heard of it.
Things that make you go hmmm?
Bottom line: Stick with
Dom.
A number of people have come forth recently with trendy new cooking methods using plastic sandwich bags. For example, you crack a couple of eggs, throw in some veggies, boil it all, and out comes an omelet.
Sure, trendy clothes are cool, but the designer hoodies are getting a little outrageous already. What ever happened to the standard pullover displaying the typical college Alma Mater?

It was only a matter of time. To think, this trend didn't even last a year!
