Shout to Royal for reminding me about my fave R-n-B boy band.
I’m not sure how that video has made it past Universal Music Group’s regulators on YouTube because the UMG properties usually aren’t tagged with an embed code. This requires the true stans to create their own fanboy videos.
Here is a BluCheez approved RFTW fanboy video for ‘Oh Sheila’.
Last night I had one of the best times on the internets that you can have that doesn’t involve downloading German smut videos.
NiceKicks.com presented their annual Kixpys sneaker awards and the show was hosted by my folks from Obsessive Sneaker Disorder. If you haven’t been part of the OSD live broadcast then you don’t know what you are missing. It’s the chance to argue, co-sign, show love and hate to everything happening in the world of sneakers. From time to time the show touches on stories that occur outside of that realm but the discussions are still framed around the love of sneakers. I don’t really know what else to say about the program other than the fact that if you are a sneaker nerd you will feel like Norm does every time he walks into Cheers.
If I’m not in the streets going in hardbody at an obama I am on the phone taking part in this one of a kind program that reaffirms the reason I am a sneaker fiend. OSD was the perfect venue for the Kixpys since this is the one place that spent the entire year commiserating and congratulating all the nominees. The big winner was DJ Clark Kent who took home two awards and also took the time to be part of the program. Clark Kent is a pretty generous and humble dude if you don’t know him, but if he feels comfortable around you he will talk that shit. Clark went in with everyone for the length of the show. He talked about his passion for sneakers as art and as footwear. He also told us that he had some projects in the pipeline that would eclipse his award winners.
The 112 Pack by Clark Kent
The 112 Pack was a tremendous release for NIKE and for Clark Kent. I think that Clark certainly give NIKE their street credibility. NIKE is already popular enough but the edge that Clark Kent gives them is non-pareil because there aren’t too many people that can document the fact that they were there AND are still here. The 112 Pack’s highlight was the Air Max 1 shoe. I am killing myself that I didn’t camp out in Brooklyn for those. That pair would be even sicker than my AM-1 NL Black Cements that I copped from the ATL DunkxChange.
Clark should have won for his NIKE collabo on the Black Friday Air Force 1’s. These are definitely on some superhero status. People are still buzzing about these shoes. The materials are str8 banana beans. I jacked some pics from HowFresh’s website just to show you how mean these shoes are.
Peep that HowFresh went in to pose these kicks on a DJ rig.
The Black Friday AF-1’s are a monster shoe that deserved to win out over the ?uestlove Air Force 1’s but only time will tell which shoe the sneaker heads love more.

Shout out to my homey Boomer for sending this video to me to take my mind off my problems.
This video makes me wanna pop and lock for my lunch.
Comic Book Club hosts writer/creator PETER DAVID tonight.
Chocolate Snowflake and I were going to go see ‘The Spirit’ for free on her Optimum Rewards card but I have decided to splurge out and spend the $10 for the both of us to listen to the creator of Fallen Angel discuss whatever comes to his mind. I’m hoping to glean something of the motivational techniques that successful writers use to break through to the other side.
Plus I fux with PETER DAVID. He had a monster two year run on X-Factor that was really nails.
Here’s the details if you are interested and in Manhattan this evening…

Twitter is shitting on the blogosphere. I can create a drop(post) using 140 characters including spaces and punctuation. That’s already less characters than I’ve used in this post so far. It is effectually microblogging and it is rumbling across the internets like a stampede of wild rhinoceratti. Twit with me @ DP2FTV.
I love that shit, but it was already showing signs of dying by virtue of popularity. The fact that people are Twitting while working, driving, eating, and even while sleeping has added to the streams of inanity insanity. Who the fuck cares what you just ate for lunch? Oh, avocado salad? That sounds tasty. Man, fuck that shit! And now some haXorz have infiltrated the Twitter database and taken over the accounts of celebrities.
Here are some of the Twitter entries that the haXorz posted…
 |
FOX News “Breaking: Bill O Riley is gay” |
 |
CNN’s RICK SANCHEZ “i am high on crack right now might not be coming into work today” |
 |
BRITNEY SPEARS “Hi Yall! Brit Brit here, just wanted to update you on the size of my vag” |
I need some haXorz to take over this site, but I need them to post content about sneakers, comic books and the best places to leave deuces in NYC. Then I can finally get some sleep at night.
