Santa’s helper is out here in the streets sourcing the shit the fat man is gonna drop off to all the good kids.

Don’t be out here fuxing shit up for you make Zwarte Piet have to snatch you up in his satchel and spirit your ass to the diamond mines.

Zwarte Piet takes a trip thru the New Amsterdam for the high holiday season, and I do mean ‘high’.

If you had seen me bust my ass on that bus exit you would be in tears. It was awesomely epic.

The final scene calls for a little Blackoake version of Donnie Hathaway’s ‘Soulful Christmas’

I’m advancing the art of Outfit Architecture with the Modern Explorer 2013 I.T.’s I’m accumulating.

The ‘Fit begins with the footings foundation. The classic contractor boot from Timberland in a cranberry buttersauce.

The Timberland contractor boots are a collab with the retailer VILLA.

The JTM (Join The Movement) boot is part of VILLA’s contribution to a local Philadelphia boys and girls club they support.

Getting fresh and giving back is the foundation (footings) of Outfit Architecture

Hot 97’s programme director Ebro Darden said these dudes were who had next…

Bitches Is Crazy.

I watched a high concept/low budget video from them and thought that they were the next hipster spicster blipster rap wave. I was nonplussed.

Then I got an e-mail from one of my oldtime co-D’s who said that he fux with them. Oh. So then I dug a little deeper and found these videos. Crack.

Cranberry Sauce Lifestyle…

I don’t know why I wait all the way until the end of the year to enjoy cranberry sauce. I love that shit. And I love roasted turkey meats. Thanksgiving needs to be once a month. Hey, if Black Friday can start in September then I should be allowed to have cranberry sauce in September.

I’m pulling one of my chunky shawl collar knits out for the season. In the past few year Ralph LAuren has been dropping these knits in some of the boldest patterns.

This is the Thanksgiving dinner ‘Fit for my night out with Chocolate Snowflake and her folks.

I paid a visit to the New Era flagship store in the Village and copped a pair of Diamondback pro hats. The all black with the aztec ‘A’ is gonna make a debut soon enough.

Yes, I was on The Shoe Game taking a shit on the LeBron XI ‘Gammea Blue’ colorway because the Air Jordan retro XI is also releasing this holiday season in a gamma blue version.

But I don’t have access to the Air Jordan retro.

So guess what shoe I’m fuxing with for Black Friday?
