Meyhem Lauren was always official, but now my young big homey is officially getting his shit on in cyberspace.
Peep his website if you love Hip-Hop culture, real rap music, graffiti, sneakers and the ‘Lo lifestyle as much as I do.

MEYHEM LAUREN IS OFFICIAL…

Friday, March 20th, 2009
HowFresh is my big homey from the tippy top of Manhattan. HowFresh gets around though. You have to respect HF’s fitted cap game as well as his classic NYC swagger.
HF and I don’t share the exact same taste in footwear, but we pretty sure the same taste in overall taste. HowFresh’s website is called ‘HowFresh Eats’ and it travels around NYC with him as HF gets it in.
HF caught up to the tail end of the Sneaker Fiends Unite! NYC Tour from AmyRuth’s in new Ha’arlem. Give him a look see. You won’t be disappointed.
‘Ye Tudda Is A Storyteller…
Tuesday, March 17th, 2009
Has the Vh-1 Storytellers special with KanYe West premiered already and because I don’t have television service I missed it?
Anyhoo, here is a clip from that program featuring ‘Ye Tudda performing the joint that Wang guests on.
If you didn’t fuck with ‘808s & Heartbreak’ because you thought it would make your dick shrink or whatever bullshit that the internets had convinced you cowards would happen then you lost.
It’s a masterful album which lets you vent your frustrations without hurting anyone in particular. KanYe already did all the crying for you. All you have to do is listen.
What if ‘808s & Heartbreak’ was the best Hip-Hop album of 2009?
I still need to hear that new DOOM joint, but until then KanYe got this off.
HOOP DREAMZ 2009…

^ Baby Jordan, the golden child…
It is officially that time of year again. Time to blow the dust off your HAROLD MINER sippee cups and get to bracketing. It’s gonna take a whole lot of overtimes to out do what ‘Cuse and UConn did in the Big East tourney last week, but anything goes when it comes to foes. Final foes that is.
All you have do is leave your intentions here in the comments section and an invite to play will be sent to you. As long as you put the proper e-mail address in the field that requests it we shall be, as the kids say “good money”.
As usual, the winner gets a free pair of kicks and I imagine that I will also have some other goodies and treats to issue to lucky folks in the collective. It’s like Lotto, ya’ gotta be in it to win it.
EFF YOU MOUNTAIN DEW BLUE!
Sunday, March 15th, 2009
Many of you internets are aware of the upcoming South By Southwest Music and Media Conference kicking off tomorrow in Austin, Texas. Unfortunately for the iNternets Celebrities our film submission was denied by the organizers (read: h8rs). I still wanted to attend the attend the conference or some parts thereof because it celebrates the online culture in a way that no one else has tried to approach.
To add to all of that, my homeys from The Smoking Section and Nah’Right are hosting the best party evar in Austin.
Rarely do I ever want to leave New York City, but in this case I feel like I need to take part in this conference and attend the panels and forums that discuss the integration of new media into art and culture like film and music. The big problem that I have with making this trip independently is my money situation. I’m already late with March’s mortgage payment. Even though I would consider this trip as a “working” holiday it is still far too frivolous for me to accept prA’li donations. But what my prA’li friends have shown me is that there is a loyal support base on the internets for DP content.
Now is the time to let some corporation pay for the entertainment and information we provide here at DP dot com. The readers of this site here have certainly paid their dues by contributing their attention span to my endeavors (I calls that mental bandwidth). I don’t want to sell out to just any corporate behemoth either. I would love to sell out to the company that I actually fucks with. I love Mountain Dew Voltage which we shall forever call MTN DEW Blue. How awesome would it be if these folks were the underwriter for my trip to Austin? Retarded awesome should be your answer.
Listen, I also watched the television news special that accused Mountain Dew of rotting kids teeth and I have also heard the rumors that Mountain Dew is out here shrinking brother’s sachs and the what not. I don’t believe none of that shit. Sure if I didn’t ever drink anything else but Mountain Dew that wouldn’t be good for me, but it is way better than coffee when I need that blast. It doesn’t give me the shakes either. What do you think I use to fuel my overnight weblogging sessions that go until 5am somedays? Mountain Dew blue is that fuel and I ain’t ashamed to say it. I wish that Mountain Dew blue was getting the throwback treatment like the classic flavor.
So here’s the rub… Mountain Dew products are made by PepsiCo. Guess who is also one of the major sponsors for the SxSW Conference? Yep, PepsiCo. How difficult would it be for PepsiCo. to fly me (and someone else to hold a camera) down to Austin for the Thursday to Sunday end of the conference? We will shoot a few videos of our time there and the things we experienced similar to the iC’s trip to the Sundance Film Festival. I think that shit is totally do-able and I will be boycotting Mountain Dew blue until they confirm my plane tickets. I pray that I don’t have to ratchet this boycott up another level.
