OG shockwave

I’m inching closer to my dreams of becoming a bonafide filmmaker. Okay, my work with Rafi and Cas IS indeed official filmmaking, but I’m getting closer to having my own production company. Okay, BluCheezTV is my own production company, but I’m one step away from producing my first project that someone pays for. And that makes me another step closer to producing a film on the Decepticons and the 1980s New York City.

When I make it big I won’t be buying myself a Cadillac or a BMW because those things aren’t really a city kid’s dream. And for a kid who used to steal cars I can tell you that it sux to come out of your house and see your shit gone. Stolen or more than likely towed. Making city kid moves requires nothing more than a fresh pair of kicks. And mine will be the freshest.

The NIKEiD program is featuring the revisioned Air Trainer. This time however they have added all their latest technological bells and whistles to make the cross trainer the most highly evolved sneaker on the planet. With a forefoot lateral strap and a Flywire base atop the 2009’s 360 air platform this might be the lightest and strongest shoe ever made.

My design has royal purple patina leather, nubuck and a personalized heel. It’s an homage to a friend of mine who helped me get to this point in life. Way back when I had no idea what I really wanted to do with my life. My friend knew that I had to do something other than what I was doing and what he was doing. He told me that I couldn’t go with him on his mission. That I had to go off and do my thing. So here I go now. Hail Meg!

air jordan 2009

I don’t feature Jordan brand shoes on this page because I don’t really fux with J’s like that anymore. You can pretty much go anywhere on the web and see some shit about Air Jordans. Knowing all of that going in I have to talk to you about this shoe – The Air Jordan 2009.

I loved the profile of the AJ2009 from the word go, but the $190 pricepoint was totally prohibitive. Only the most gonzo Air Jordan fan was copping these shoes. It was the first time I could remember AJ stans dissing the shoe release on a wholesale level.

It wasn’t until I came up on these shoes in A.J.Wright stores that I decided to fux with the shoe. As it stands now I have 3 pairs of 2009s. They were too cheap for me not to copp. I just saw them for $29.99 at the Nike outlet in Woodbury Commons. If you see this shoe for less than $50 I am telling you to go in hardbody.

I finally cracked a pair last weekend and they blew my mind. They were more responsive and more comfortable than a pair of Air Max. So I consulted with one of my Sneaker Fiends superstars who also happens to be a de facto Jordan brand representative – Solace from Timeless Truth.

Solace sent me these links of his homey Jason Mayden who actually designed the Air Jordan 2009. After learning all about the technical details of these shoes I can’t wait to rock them again. Keep a lookout for these shoes in my next fanboy video. Until then…

The Boot Camp Clique Chronicles…

Morgan State homecoming >>> Morehouse College homecoming (extreme nullus)


Sean Price x Rock (Heltah Skeltah) – ‘Church’

The College Music Journal festival kicks off tonite here in NYC and as usual I have myself triple booked to attend showcases all around town. The weather is craptastic right now so instead of stunting in a pair of Dunks I am pulling out my ol’ reliable shit kickers.

The classic 6″ waterproof boot in the brown oiled leather is what I like to use for when rainy dayz meets CMJ shows. These boots will be stepping in puddles containing beer, urine and possibly vomit (COLLEGE music journal) so I need to have footwear on that can be wiped down as fast as I change venues.

I’ll break out the nubuck after all the college kids have gone home.
