Fabulous Redemption…

Sunday, April 7th, 2013

um

I’m sorry I didn’t run the dP NCAA Pool this year but kudos to the Louisville Cardinals and the Michigan Wolverines for making it to the Final Four title game tilt. I was hoping that ‘Cuse would be back in the Finals again but you can’t be mad for Louisville.

I’m rooting for the Wolverines tho’. I’m hoping that Michigan can get a title to redeem the Fab 5 squads which were prA’Li the most hated players in college basketball history. Even more hated than the UNLV Runnin’ Rebels. You can’t deny the swag of the Fab 5 on the basketball court.

For letting Timberland and Stussy come together to make this deluxe Field Boot. Premium leather, official metal hardware, a gum outsole and a leather interior lining make these field boots the best I ever had.

Outfit Architecture…

I’ve been putting some ‘fits together to transition from the winter to this brisk windy spring we are experiencing. This outfit I’m describing is a bit of my Red Baron Flight School repertoire.

I finally have something to rock while wearing my Melo M9 Black Hostory Month shoes.

The Polo RL flight jacket is lightweight yet warm fiyahverkx.

More Jordan socks from Marshalls. Yo, I LOVE Jordan socks.

All these pieces have been the archives for a minute I just haven’t been able to puzzle up the pieces in my mind. I think I matched this ‘fit together pretty well. What do y’all think?

Love And Loyalty…

The ‘LO-End Theory was birthed as a concept from a meeting I was a part of with Timeless Truth, Meyhem Lauren, Sean Price, Roc Marciano and Thirstin’ Howl The 3rd. The idea in my mind was to pool the interconnected bases of all these artists under one flag. Not a Polo flag, but a brotherhood flag.

See, if this had been twenty years ago I wouldn’t have been able to be friends with Thirstin’ Howl. Our circles and networks would have prevented this from occurring. Now that we are in our forties we can see a bigger picture for ourselves.

Suffice to say it but I’m a fan of Thirstin’ Howl. His legendary work ethic and his professionalism make him a cultural iconoclast. Dude definitely deserves to be in the Hip-Hop Hall of Fame.

My nigga Meyhem Lauren is also instrumental in the formation of the ‘LO-End Theory. This dude builds bridges with his persona and his patience. I have the utmost respect for him as he continues his journey with force and focus.

Now that the ‘LO-End Theory has been launched its time to find another place for the event to touch down and spread the Lifestyle vibe to the attendees. I’d like to go to Atlanta to bring the Buy-Sell-Trade of vintage I.T.’s to that community, and maybe even Montreal so that we could have an Olympics themed photoshoot.

Wherever we go to next I’ll make sure I do a better job of letting the community know how important it is to support these artists for their independent trailblazing and their everlasting dedication to staying fresh.
