Life Imitates Art…

BeYonce’s performance at the halftime mark of the Super Bowl was a cultural touchstone moment. Even if you weren’t watching the show I guarantee you remember where you were at the moment since it was the most discussed thing in the universe.

For all the strum and drang about the set she performed, the clothes she wore and the deviltry she allegedly professed I haven’t really seen too much media that has entertained me like the image below. I grabbed a cover title from the Sensational She-Hulk and pasted it atop.

The ‘Mrs.Carter Tour’ is coming soon to a city near you. DO NOT call BeYonce by the name She-Hulk tho’. She h8s that and you don’t want to see her angry. You wouldn’t like her when she’s angry.

After 30 Years This Box Still Rocks…

Without Video Music Box, the creation of Ralph McDaniels, there would be no BluCheezTV. Video Music Box was my after school crack. I’d rush home after school to watch music videos from rappers to punk rockers and everything in between that had soul and funk within its sound.

Video Music Box was transmitting music thru imagery. Basically what YouTube does today, but this was way before the internets and even before my parents had access to cable television. Respect the architect that Ralph McDaniels is for showing the whole of Hip-Hop before MTV, VH-1 or even B.E.T. had the platform.

Just Blaze shut down the ‘LO-End Theory on so many levels.

Just rocked the legendary Suicide ski goose. Then Just played a mini-set in which he brought Freeway out to the stage. Just Blaze literally broke the Highline Ballroom soundsystem.

Even my man 50 grand Eskay came thru and repped lovely. Not too many heads know that NahRight really gets down for the Polo crown. I knew it way back when at Combat Jack’s book party he was all Sportsman down.

An ultra crispy Snow Beach and some Ski’92 flavors on deck.

Shouts to Jordan Brand for lacing me with a pair of Melo M9s and the retro IV BReds which I issued to the folks in the audience who repped the Lifestyle to the fullest. It was funtimes.

I thought my Yachtsman jacket was fresh but my man killed it with his vintage ’93 I.T. with leather appointments and the lobster clasps.

The ‘LO-End Theory also got some press…

The first ever ‘LO-End Theory popped off so crazy this past weekend. Here are some pictures from the event. Shouts to my man my Melo on the lens

Before I left Chocolate Snowflake’s crib she flicked me up in all my glory. This was my ‘Fit for the ‘LO-End Theory Inauguration.

I too sing America.

Ocean Challenge I.T.’s abound. The oldest items were the Polo Sport ‘USA’ socks and the Polo Sport thermals which were twenty years old. I popped a tag on those jawns. Cashmere socks, silk ski scarf, shawl collar flag knit. You can see the kid was in full celebration with regatta regalia.

My nickname for this ‘Fit was Futuristic Ninja Yachtsman.
