Rapper Jay-Z In Negotiations With NJ For 'Rocawear Arena

Jay-Z's popular clothing line Rocawear is in negotiations to become the naming-right pat to the Meadowlands arena.Jay-Z, who owns a portion of the New Jersey Nets, hopes to snag the rights to the arena's name, which is currently held by Continental Airlines.

The rapper faces competition from clothing brands Izod and Southpole, who also seek to have the 26-year-old arena named after their flagship brands.

According to the Bergen County Record, The New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority (NJSEA), which is handling bids for the naming rights, said a new name for the famed arena could emerge as early as October 4th.

"We're looking forward to presentations by bidders next week, and then we'll get into the process of evaluation," he said. "I'm optimistic that we'll be able to overachieve the current financial deal that we [had] with Continental."

Continental had been paying over $600,000 a year for the naming rights to the arena. NJSEA officials expect to double that figure with the new naming-rights holder.

The new owner will hold the rights to the arena's name for two years, when the Nets move move to Brooklyn in 2009.

YSL, Dolce & Gabbana, Charvet

A sapphire-on-stone ensemble from YSL provides more flash than many guys can safely handle. If you're man enough, take things a step further with a little silk-on-silk in the form of a Dolce & Gabbana shirt and Charvet scarf. Set it off with seventies-style stubble (i.e., one day's growth—no more, no less).

I Am Legend

I Am Legend
Richard Matheson's novel has already formed the basis for two adaptations (including 1971's The Omega Man, starring Charlton Heston), but this winter's film version is the first to retain the book's title. Too soon to tell whether it'll be worth seeing, but this much we do know: As the lone survivor of a massive bacterial infection, star Will Smith manages to fight off vampires while staying perfectly on-trend.

The White Rabbits

The White Rabbits hail from Brooklyn's crumbling industrial Bushwick neighborhood, yet their wardrobe evokes rolling hills more than gritty loft spaces. Their Gatsby-inspired debut album, Fort Nightly, has been generating a steady buzz, and their rollicking live show—which features two drummers—is well worth catching as they embark on a U.S. tour this fall.
