I want my MTV with KD!
Oklahoma City’s favorite millionaire fronts ‘Nothing but Net.’
Whether or not our Oklahoma City Thunder power through to victory in the NBA Finals, one thing’s for sure: Kevin Durant is soon to be seen on MTV.
Well, MTV2, that is. Durant is scheduled to appear on the channel’s sports documentary, Nothing but Net, at noon July 17. Here, have a preview clip of KD playing ref at Douglass High School:
Get More: Nothing But Net, Full Episodes
It’s Friday, so I’m in a good mood, so here, have another, with KD getting all RedPinny:

Sooner the Sunset — Sooner the Sunset
Pop
Joshua Boydston
Oklahoma City’s own Graham Colton is one of the most formidable solo artists the Sooner state has to offer, and he’s even more impressive as half of the new duo Sooner the Sunset, having found his musical soul mate in vocalist Lindsey Ray.
The Flaming Lips — The Terror
Rock
Zach Hale
An ominous letter from Wayne Coyne surfaced when The Flaming Lips released a video preview of The Terror last month.
Hopper: A Journey into the American Dream — Tom Folsom
Nonfiction
Rod Lott
When Tom Folsom terms his new nonfiction work, Hopper, as “a rebel biography,” he’s not kidding. Not only is his subject a rebel, but so is his approach. A you-are-there POV, fonts that interrupt the narrative — you’ve never read a celebrity bio quite like it, and that’s certainly befitting of its star.

Skating Polly — Lost Wonderfuls
Rock
Zach Hale
Skating Polly is a different type of novelty act. The Oklahoma City-based duo of Kelli Mayo and Peyton Bighorse has accrued an inordinate amount of interest for such a young band, ascending to the top of the local ranks largely because of their age: 13 and 17, respectively.
aDD it up
In rapping about the positive, Oklahoma City’s aDDLib has cracked the equation for hip-hop success.
Music
Joshua Boydston
aDDLib hasn't starred in movies, and you probably won't find him in a production of Riverdance anytime soon, but that doesn't mean he's not a triple threat. A talented rapper, studio artist and graphic designer, aDDLib — the moniker of lifelong Oklahoma City resident Dewayne Butler — is quite the total package.
‘Land’ ho!
Look, up in the sky! It’s local artist Rick Sinnett, working on ‘This Land,’ a mural adorning the outside of Rocktown Climbing Gym.
Visual Arts
Liz Blood
Drive Interstate 40 just south of Bricktown, and you might see artist Rick Sinnett. He’s the one swinging from a rope anchored to the top of Rocktown Climbing Gym, wrangling a 5-gallon bucket of paint as he works on his latest mural, This Land.
