Pac Div x The Cool Kids "Shut Up" Video

Fabolous x Plies "Sell Dope" snippet


Plies somewhat makes up for Loso's lazy flow on this snippet. Don't know what this track's going to be on, but I'm not impressed. Plus Loso bit a line that he's bit before. Where they do that at??? I guess Brooklyn (no disrespect).

Stevie Crooks "Diamonds & Guns"


The Diamonds & Guns LP from Compton rapper Stevie Crooks. My first time ever listening to guy was like yesterday after I download this LP. I must say I came away impressed. He's nice, beats are dope, LP=tight. Musically dope, lyrical good, but not great. Another West Coast added to my list of dope newcomers (not really list, it just sounds good). I suggest you download this, give it a listen, then thank me for sharing it with you. Tracklist+Download below

Etnies Plus - Spring 2010 - Rebel Skate Series


While the second half of 2010 spots a series of grown-up silhouettes and shapes for etnies Plus sneakers, the label kicks off 2010 with a series of skate shoes true to etnies heritage. The Rebel Skate pack takes inspiration of etnies’ early Rebel Sports campaign and styling on shoes like the Ice Man. This release of Rebel Skate Series comes with three models, the low-top SENIX OP PLUS with a shiny black patent leather upper, the hi-top OLLIE KING PLUS and another low-top RSS PLUS. The interesting design point about this pack is the special Rebel Skate graphics on the midsoles of the low-top kicks, and a large “ETNIES” type on the side. Get a little nostalgic with the Rebel Skate Series and look out for them at your closest etnies retailer if you are feeling them.

adidas Originals by Originals - James Bond for David Beckham - Americana Mid | Available Now


When David Beckham moved to Los Angeles, a few things happened. One of them was discovering UNDFTD, loving the store, and later one thing led to another, both men are working together and designing a fresh collaboration line with adidas Originals by Originals. Among the three ObyO lines, James Bond for David Beckham, stays closest to American sportswear roots with simple colors and unrestrained silhouettes every man would have no qualms wearing.

Fresh from the collaboration is a remake of the popular adidas basketball mode, the Americana mid. The new American Mid DB, after a James Bond and David Beckham makeover resembles an outdoor hiking boot more than the basketball shoes released in the 70s. The transformation off courts and into the wild is made possible with a premium brown distressed leather, a buckle strap and zipper detail around the ankle– all adding a healthy dose of masculine toughness to the game kicks.

These basketball kicks in disguise are now available online via Crooked Tongues.

Throwback Video: 112 "Anywhere"

I don't think I even need to discuss this song or video.

Artwork by David Barton


This guy is interesting. He creates some famous with his own little twist to it. You can find these works and more at his website, Limpfish. Here's a description of the website and Barton's work from the horses' mouth:
"All this rubbish has been created by yours truly (that’s me!). Mostly with an old version of Photoshop, a less old Corel Painter and a crayon.

Pretty much all of this is covered by a creative commons license, which means if you really want to and if it’s for non-commercial purposes you’re free to use, link to, copy, publish or whatever. All I ask is that you give me a credit, a link to this site and let me know if you’re doing something cool (I’ll add it to my scrap book).

I’m not an illustrator but occasionally do commissions along with more regular web dev work. Contact me if you want me to do something for you, if want to use anything commericially… or if you just want to say hi."

Dead Fly Art by Flychelangelo

The identity of the person that created this is unknown. Therefore, his or her name has been dubbed Flychelangelo. This is some really fly shit (pun intended). Probably one of the most creative, but simplistic pieces of work I have seen in a while. What a way to start posting on here again. SALUTE TO CREATIVITY & DOPE ART.
