A few words + homeless emcee

2009-03-07T09:58:00.000-08:00

So as the day gets closer to the drop (what?) We have kind of neglected the blog. I truly
apologize but we are kind of working on "something" that will be good for all of us, meaning
you the reader and the set. Highendestroy is still on the fence about what is to come on the
16th, the date my change to a sooner date. So check back

now that I got that out of the way, here is another installment of D-nice's true hip hop stories,
This NOW probably has to be the best one that D has done.

Rhymes&Reasons

2009-02-25T19:16:00.001-08:00

So word leaked out when I seen mickey with a Honda, and then next, when viewing Gomez's
blog a month or so back, behind the scenes footage was leaked. Either way, it looks like Mickey
and Gomez joined forces with Honda.

At first, I thought it was going to be a simple commercial promoting both peeps, but it looks
like it is more than that, check out RhymesandReasons if you don't believe me

new UNIF

2009-02-25T14:35:00.000-08:00

If you have been fallowing the Unif blog, they have been announcing the drop of the new

besides that, GZ called me up, tellin' me about the video they have put up on the Media page with
Mondo's work out plan, pretty funny.

L.Reed promo

BLACK FOLKS

2009-02-24T10:20:00.000-08:00

Me n the homies were talkin' the other night about the state of these up n comers, or atleast
new to the scene with a wider range of viewers/listeners. Dope boy C has been holdin' it down
more quite some time now and has grown as an artist tremendously.

The conversation was more about that these dudes don't care, meaning, they put no effort behind
there videos, short or not, no creativity basically, and thats a bad thing.

I can go on forever but Curtains has released two solid videos for his last mixtpe and is now
starting it off well with his new project coming out, check out this teaser.

OVERKILL

2009-02-21T21:30:00.000-08:00

So talkin' to a friend in Berlin, we pass knowledge of stores and the design and creativity behind
them, for example, He will throw me a store where he is located, and likewise, it is funny how
he thinks The hundreds is big, but I have to tell him its like a 6x6 jail cell. So when going back
n' fourth on stores, he passed me a ill spot, that spot is OVERKILL, and it looks quite impressive,
now i have to top it.

Speaking of Overkill, check out the interview FnG did.

Supposedly Mr. West did this first, but by his video past, He probably bit again, I don't
know, but the Chairlift video released a week or so before the ye joint. I guess you can
wonder what went wrong......or right.

Honestly, I thought something was wrong with the video.

Apartamento

2009-02-17T15:43:00.001-08:00

So I have been looking for this magazine everywhere, online, in stores, doesn't matter,
NO shelves carry it. So my last resort, which I dont know why I waited, I checked the retailers
online and yea, no go.

what mag am I talkin' about? Apartamento is what I am talkin' about, So now I am deciding to
order online which is 25 euros, or have a good friend in london buy it for me for half that price,
I guess I will just see.

The design is simple and clean, but one of the reasons why I am so eager to get my hands on an issue
is because I heard the writing is real good and the content is on point along with the photography.

Some readin'...

2009-02-17T15:03:00.000-08:00

Play Cloths Spring ‘09

2009-02-15T15:52:00.000-08:00

At a rapid pace, Playcloths is becoming one of my favorite brands and through my
eyes is a force to be wreckin' with, I had a chance to see the quality in person and the
cut is quite nice and time has been taken to develop the line.

and with that been said, CMON has recently dropped the line.

I have been a Crooks fan for almost 4 years but am never the one to go buy a piece and
sport a medusa on my chest, When dropping the cut n sew a year or so ago, I wasnt a fan
of there cut's and the denim wasnt up to par, but after a year of strong growth, the cut got
superb and the details are up to my expectations.

the selvedge lining is quite nice but what got me was the Gucci touch.

UNDFTD 2009 Spring/Summer

2009-02-13T23:53:00.001-08:00

Neek recently did the shoot for UNDFTD'S new spring/summer line.

Staying true to their design aesthetic, Undefeated give us a look into their new Spring/Summer
lookbook, heavily influenced by sports heritage of course. The collection showcases simple graphic
imagery and embroidery over quality built pieces including zip-downs, t-shirts, and hoodies.
Highlighting the collection are they pinstriped Old English New Era’s alongside a crew neck piece
referencing the house that Ruth built, with an Undefeated twist. The lineup looks to release soon
at the Undefeated web store.

The Resurrection: A NEW YORK THING

2009-02-12T14:12:00.000-08:00

So before I start what may sound like I'm cockin' the dudes, don't get it twisted family.
I been down with aNYthing for a long while now, and the growth of respect is unbelievable.
I remember rockin' a NY t and my family would get mad or people would give me weird
looks, but A-ron was puttin' out shit that was never seen before and to this day, the
cat still does.

When releasing off-bowery, i was physched, but it was short lived and layed to rest in
the meantime while A and Semen get back on there high horse and pick up aNything again
and bring back that feelin' to the game again.

When hearing this was coming back out with the OG dudes who started it, i was a bit
geeked and now am interested to see what is in store. A said he will be attendin' the circus
over in vegas coming up which is magic, so lets see how that plays out.

SS: Yeah kids today can jump online and study the culture as opposed to being involved in
the culture. There’s some good too it but a lot of bad.

AB: When it comes down to it though we need wackness to make the dope stuff look great
so I thank these kids for helping us shine that much more! Downtown used to be a laboratory
to me, everyone was experimenting now we’re a science project of sorts. We’re dealing with a
recession right now and I feel like there’s a cultural recession special about to go down. I’m like
anti-cultural recession spray or something.

Anyway, the whole point to this post was that hypebeast has a good interview with the dudes, and
can read the rest of interview here.

Penfield aint stopping anytime soon.

"Stocklist is the Magic and the Project and the Agenda for Eastern Canada. Buyers all around
the area come to meet brands for bookings. Ran by Oli, Mer, Paul…(list goes on), the show is
getting more popular every season. For the passed two days, I got to hang around, migrating
from one booth to the other, from Pointer to Penfield. Here are some sneak peeks of Pointers
and NewBalance’s to come for Fall 09."

2009-01-31T22:45:00.000-08:00

I guess there is alot of type, but I will try to keep it brief. So I attended the Wale x Blu x Exile x
U-N-I show the other night. First off, I haven't been to a show in a good 6 months, so when I
seen the bill, i was quite impressed and honestly, I will probably never see Wale for this cheap
no more since signing with Interscope and not to mention, it was nice been in the first row giving
all the performers daps.

so let me go step by step.

U-N-I opened up and they moved the crowd nice, never standing in one spot, and Y-O doing a
stage dive topped it off, The crowd was luckily enough to get some unreleased tracks and in my
opinion they are growing as lyricist, and shout outs to Casey Veggies, seen that kid was pretty
dope, keep rockin.

Blu came with his mellow self, I didn't think Blu fit with this line up, but is it because U-N-I opened
it up so live and Wale smashed it? I dont know, but Blu was a comedian and what can i say about Exile,
rippin the MPC.

Finally, this cat wale had the crowd waiting for a good 40 min, and anxious, after such a hyped
opening, it killed the mood. Although, the wait was well worth it, performing with a band makes the
show much better, every track that was performed I can honestly say was a banger and not to mention
the acts he brought to the stage. In my opinion, Wales performance was pretty incredible, and Trey,
I guess you can call him his hype man for the night killed it, smashing the choruses, stompin' in his
Nike boots and doing a pretty good job doin' some Nervana. the show ended off amazing, with Nike
boots, and every one coming back to the stage to give there peaces. Would I be trippin' if I said this show
was better than seen Nas a couple years ago?

Last but not least, it surprised me how humble dude was, multiple greetings and coming off
the stage at the end of the show and thanking everyone and giving pounds to probably whoever
he came across.

oh, and one last thing, shout outs to the appearences, Evidence, C-San, Casey Veggies, Fashawn, Bishop
Lamaont, Warren G, Xzibit, Damani, and adam tensta

BV House

2009-01-27T22:20:00.000-08:00

Nice project from the Biselli + Katchborian camp. finished last year, the BV house is a dope
mix between concrete and timber.

"The architectural conception for the BV House, located in São Paulo, Brazil, follows a structural
approach evident in spans and cantilevers, result of the ribbed concrete slabs. The three-floor
house has on its first floor the garage and service areas, a second floor for kitchen and social
rooms and a third floor with bedrooms and family room.

This is a typical urban house in the city of São Paulo, established on a site with a sharply inclined
surface from the street. The main idea expressed in the project is to give an immediate answer to
the place, that has its front (biggest measure) turned north towards an extraordinary view of a rare
remaining fragment of Mata Atlântica (Rain forest) right in front of the plot.

The side wood facade is an important element, as it indicates the main access. It also gives privacy
to the residents and protects the building from excessive insulation, and also creates a pleasant social
space in the balcony.

The metallic details appear on the house as carefully created elements, such as the balconies,
handrails and window frames. On the third floor v-opening aluminum shades filters the excessive
light and bring movement to the main facade."

Garbage pin

2009-01-18T10:07:00.000-08:00

Pretty dope stuff spotted on anacardim. The garbage pin is a solid idea but you
wont catch me wearin' trash on my chest.

Garbage Pin is born of a definitely urban concept, the appropriation and reinterpretation of a
daily use object: the garbage bin.

Being one of the most common typologies of urban equipment in the cosmopolitan network,
the garbage bag belongs without any doubt to the collective imagery, present in every urbanite
life’s day as a reflection of a culture involved with the accelerated and growing consumism,
as is ours…

The color extravagance of the recently completed single-family residence in Oporto, Portugal,
follows Gadanho’s established modus operandi of using white and bright colors as key elements

time punching up the power of snowy white.

my sister’s non-profit organization, Rocking the Road to A Cure, which provides resources
for women with breast cancer. If you are interested, send me an email for arrangements to

Influencing Vandalism : Introduction to Theory.

2009-01-05T07:34:00.000-08:00

The homie Speech is up to something, besides this project he is doing,
check out his other photography, clean shit.

Inflencing Vandalism is a set that I've wanted to do for quite awhile now; 12-20 pieces
of straight thievery. And when I say thievery I don't mean THUG; there is nothing cool
about a inexperienced criminal.

Really the influences of this project come from my involvement in graffiti culture of Detroit's
South side; and the wide of array of characters that I met while writing, as well as the person
that I became throughout the experience.

check out some of Speech's work here.
