Kanye Murking This Rap Game
Who Did Kanye body Worse?
Kanye West, GOAT Rapper? Believe it or not kanye has been bodying everyone on their own tracks. After the experimental detour that was 808s Kanye’s rapping has been unflawed everything from the flow to the schematics of his rhyme pattern. On “Kinda like a Big deal” he destroys the Clipse and its not even close. This is no small feat seeing as the Clipse are the kings of Coke-rap to bring more bravado and outshine the brother Thorntons, it cements Kanye into the upper echelon of rappers. That’s not even taking into consideration his most recent work where he shits on Hov. Kanye Once rapped “On that diamonds remix I thought I spazzed /till big brother came through and kicked my ass” But this is definitely his redemption. Not saying Hov was wack or anything but he certainly couldn’t keep up with kanye’s energy. Where Hov laments about the pitfalls of being a highroller, Kanye exercises the braggadocio we love “ what the fuck you think I rap for/ to push a fucking rav 4” where Jay-Z is cool and collective kanye is pure energy and witty persepective. This isn’t even getting into all the other tracks Kanye has murked as of late Tracks like “Alright” and “Flight School” in which you actually forget that Kanye is Just a Feature. Now the Question isn’t if Kanye Bodied ?just who did he body harder?
Take a listen and decide.

COMME des GARÇONS MAN W Name
As we all know Junya Watanabe has created a collection for the ever exclusive COMME des GARÇONS. A regular contributer to Commes. Junya has named the collection " W Name". Drawing inspiration from Hunters and Fisherman's the collection also gives off an Old english vibe. Junya has truly created a classic collection, not that I would expect anything less.

ASICS GEL Hello Kitty and Friends
Ok so when I was younger I used to be obsessed with Hello Kitty. I made my parents buy me endless shit as long as it said Hello Kitty but I think we all went through that phase, no? Anyways Asic decided to do a collaboration with Sanrio and ta daaaa created these kicks right here. Now i wouldn't necessarily rock these kicks but I'm posting them up as an ode to my childhood.
Lanvin Red Bronze
As you probably have figured if your a regular here, we are pretty much on Lanvin's balls all the time but thats just becasue they keep on coming with crazy shit. Lanvin knows how to keep it FRESH ( take note boys and girls) These kicks right here are part of the Fall 2009 collection. They come in a bronze tone with a red bright toe.
Late Pass
Since we've been slacking on this blogging stuff we completely forgot to add the new Hova track that's popped off. I'm sure you all have it but Just in Case here it is. after listening to it for some days I have come to the Conclusion that Kanye bodies this track but Young Haiti Completely disagrees with me. What do you think?

The Roots- How I Got Over

Visvim FBT Lhamo Folk El
What You didn't Know!
False is a staple among real heads, but recently their brand has seen their global presence skyrocket. Their intensive hand screen process on all tees is widely renowned and their witty play on current fashion is executed masterfully in their "better off dead collection". In an over saturated market False stands head and shoulders above the competition. Creative director Le Messie has continued to evolve the brand moving it away from the mixed media, to more mature and minimalist graphic design and then back again to a mix of all of the above. So if you didn't know now you do

P-Rod Nike Sb x Ice Cube
Also to celebrate the release of the P-Rod III the Marketing geniuses at Nike out did themselves. One of my favourite rappers and one of my favourite skaters team up for a slick new Sb commercial set to the tone of one of the greatest
summer jams.

Man Gets A Play Cloths Tat
I thought i was a consumerist whore but homie right here takes the cake. That is the Play Cloths logo tatted on his abdomen. Either this young man was heavily inebriated or he is straight off his rocker He didn't even get the small jack logo like on the polos, he went all out and got the XXL jack on himself. Hit that man with some tee’s, TTCD bootleg or something… dude is crazy
Colette X Timberland
Funny that I just came across these today. Earlier on I was reading this blog post by Combat jack in which he stated that timberlands are dead . All of us here completely agreed with the sentiment. They've been dead for awhile now. Now now I must confess that back in High school i rocked a pair of Timbs , I must've been one of the few girls in our school who did, but rock em' I did. Maybe it's because I suffer a bit from Napoleon Complex but Timbs always had a way of making me feel empowered. I was a definite empowered GEEk with my Timbs on. Eventually I grew out of that phase and timbs for me personally have remained buried ever since. Now today I came across these. As we all know Colette is one of the top of line street wear brands out there and they have decided to do a collabo with Timbs. the boots come in your typical beige timberland colour accented with blue and are tagged with Collette on the tongue. So I must ask " Is colette the defibrillator that timberland needs? What do you think ?

FAIYATORIKKUBOBU - Jet Power Bike
The other day we were talking about whether we would trade our whips in for bikes. Alex(Young Haiti) was pretty vocal and adamant that if he had a cool enough bike he would get rid of his whip ( but it might've been the coronas speaking). I hardly believe that when the weather would be 30 below that he would be riding his bike. Anyways this post does have a point, I came across this super cool JET POWER BIKE designed by the Japanese Company Rintendo which even has 4,4 HP and get this it even features one litre of JET FUEL mofo JET FUEL. It's a pretty fresh bike and it can be all yours for a cool 10,000 beans (usd)
