NIKE can’t be defeated. Evar. First of all, they have aliens doing their R & D. Secondly they have the classic shoe catalog game OnSmash.

o.g.

I am jocking a bunch of their mashups right now especially these joints that bring the O.G. Air Max 180 aquamarine colorway back like footcrack. The new hybrid shoe combines the Free footbed with the ACG Wildwood upper.

Two words = FYE and RAH.

ASHER ROTH vs. HELTAH SKELTAH

TERRENCE is creating a couple of videos from the Heltah Skeltah ‘Da Incredible Rap Team’ preview party at S.O.B.’s that we went to the other week.

The question of the night was “Who is Asher Roth?”

Sonn brought out the high heels fa’sho. I think it inspired Ruck and Rock to gussy up their grime game and get glossy. Take note underground rap music fans, the times are past where you could come to a show without bathing and brushing your teeth.

That means you Dallas Penn.

Peep the technique – Ellesse bag holds Mr.Feelgoode

Facebook has become a cross country class reunion. I’m grateful that so many of my classmates have fond memories of the kid. CANDICE has definitely been keeping the gloss on my name when she could just have easily thrown me under the bus. Thanks C. I see you are back to kicking ass in the football pool.

My homegirl SHAWNEQUA e-mailed me some classic Brooklyn Tech era pics. The funny shit is that I still have some of these I.T.’s in my archives. Not the exact pieces in the pics but replacement I.T.’s that I keep on ice for a rainy day. You don’t even want to know how many Oakland A’s and Montreal Expos fitted caps I have on stash.

    There’s no denying that Barack-A-Fella madness is everywhere and his rock star status has inspired an infinite amount of Barack-A-Wear in hoods and urban farmers markets nationwide. In showing our support for Barry-O, the homies over at MIGHTY HEALTHY NYC whipped up a quick likkle something for those out there looking for a little more than an “Obama Is My Homeboy!” tee.

    As he goes into his rumble in the political jungle. we harkened back to the original “Rumble In The Jungle” as inspiration for this latest limited piece. “OBAMA BUMAYE!!!” Says it all regarding his final push for this showdown for the ages. Now if we can only get him to run up on some drums during McCain’s acceptance speech and let them know – “THE CHAMP IS HERE!!!”

    Limited to 144 pieces in sizes M-XXL, and can be purchased at MightyHealthyNYC

    Changing your t-shirt to Mighty Healthy is change we all can believe in.
