I need the skills of a master cobbler right now. But not even a master bootmaker can repair the sole of a Timberland field boot when it fails.
So I’m either gonna send the boot back to Timberland for a replacement or keep the upper in my archives awaiting the day that the Timberland outsole gets put on the market.
Rep Your Sneakerhood rolls on at SneakerTUBE.tv and now I am on Jamaica Ave in the Q-Boro. There is a West Indian beef patty shop at the beginning of the strip that has held it down forever.
If you score a come-up you have to copp yourself a beef patty with coco bread.
You will be straighter than six o’clock.
P was telling me to look out for this kid coming out of Camden, NJ and now with this video I can clearly see the vision.
The track is called ‘Struggle No More’.
It’s going down tomorrow RIGHT NOW!
The debut of Meyhem Lauren’s first studio album ‘Self-Induced Illness‘ is up on iTunes.
The album is a landmark to classic NYC Hip-Hop with anthems to graffiti, getting fly and general street life. “Self-Induced Illness’ is over forty tracks deep with new songs and a few of the greatest Meyhem Lauren joints.

That dude in the pic above is my homey KyleStyle156.
KyleStyle is the dude that put me on into the graff lifestyle. Kyle brought me into the fold at this non-profit organization called ICRY which stood for Inner City Roundtable of Youth. ICRY would be all about getting graff kids public art projects. They wouldn’t pay the kids but when you are 13yrs old you want a reap and fame way more than money.
KyleStyle156 def had a rep. He and JonOneFiveSix were the last top to bottom kings on the 1 line. I used to post up at Chambers Street to catch their trains going to and coming from South Ferry. I just re-connected with KyleStyle via the interconnected networks at Facebook. Here are some of the pics he uploaded to his page.
This was me rocking the jacket he did for me back in 1983. Thank you internets for helping me to respect the architects
