Hey Dooormannnnnnn…
Friday, December 11th, 2009KEVIN POWELL COAT DRIVE = G.O.A.T.
Thursday, December 10th, 2009
I would never suggest that you wear shoes and nicely ironed ‘slacks’ to a party, but this event right here is the G.O.A.T. one night event. It’s as if Target and DSW and PathMark AND Victoria Secret’s got together to throw a party. It’s a delicious estrogen overload.
It is the only party filled to the gills with working ladies. For some of whom this may be their last time giving a man some action. If you single fellas play your cards right you will also bag up a shorty with the mean connect to a New Year’s Eve jumpoff.
Don’t go here to rack up digits tho’. Go here to hunt down a piece of trophy poon for your holiday mantle. Avoid ThunderDome if possible.

^ The Air Max 2009+ = DP.com Sneaker of the Year
Tune in tonight to Obsessive Sneaker Disorder Radio where the discussion will turn into which sneakers deserve to be listed in the years top 10 releases. I’m riding with the Air Max 2009+. This is one of those great evolutionary shoes that pushes the level so far up it will be several years before Nike can even catch up to itself. The weight of the shoe combined with the incredible strength and look make this shoe instantly a benchmark in the Air Max legacy.
I thought the Air Max 360 platform was as far as the envelope could be pushed but the AM09+ has even more air in the outsole along with a carbonfiber upper that both breathes and secures the foot in place better than any previous Air Max shoe. I also love the wide footbed that doesn’t pinch my foot in any area. Because these shoes are on par with Nike’s more elite designs the pricepoint is similar to a Jordan brand shoe. I would take the Air Max 2009+ over any Jordan shoe that dropped this year (considering the Carmine retro VI was last year).
If I can get anything for holidays from one of my friends at Nike I would like to have the Air Max 2009+ pictured below along with the sweater fleece hoodie. The Nike hoodies have gone high-end with the Loopwheeler cotton construction and I wouldn’t know what to do with a $250 hoodie (oh, don’t get it twisted, I would figure some shit out), but I just want a simple heather grey sweater jacket to complement these Air Max so if someone at the Swoosh fux with DP.com please send them my way.
Thanx internets. Thanx Nike.
Fila Still Got Flavor…
Wednesday, December 9th, 2009
I’m gonna enjoy this obama. Fila was that lifestyle brand in the eighties that all of these other sportswear companies have tried to swaggerjack. Fila, Le Coq Sportif, Prince and Sergio Tachini were all must have warm up suits for your collection. Fila was the freshest of the lot. They used velour cottons and well made lightweight wool blends that gave meaning to term ‘warm up’.
The Fila aerobic trainer was the most official sneaker for anyone going to see a movie on the Deuce unless you had the Gucci trainer. I would crack up if Polo still had a pair of Gucci joints. I give credit where it is due and Polotron stayed wearing the Gucci trainers. I would call the OG Gucci trainer and the Bally Competition >>> The Air Jordan 2. Fila’s aerobic joints are iconic as well.
Polo, hit me on the hip for we can roll up on this joint.

‘So Disrespectful’
I have to apologize to all the Fisty Scent fans I might have ignored on the release of his latest album. I listened to the album once(but not really). On my repeated listens last night as I navigated through the internets I realized how much I enjoy this album ‘Before I self Destruct’. This is the kind of regressive rap music that my dude from Oz would enjoy. 50 Cent is totally the dumbed down version of Kool G Rap. Except 50 Cent annunciates impeccably. You can hear his threats clearly.
‘Before I Self Destruct’ isn’t so much coke rap or brag rap as it is revenge rap. The thing that makes 50 Cent’s blood flow better than motor oil is the idea that he has to exact revenge on people. Everyone. Enemies. Friends. Family. This dude is so disrespectful. I’m trying to figure out who made 50 Cent so angry. It shouldn’t be this hard to happy? Sure people hated 50 a few years ago, he was broke back then. Poor folks remind us of our own mortality. I hate them too.
‘Before I Self Destruct’ is at its best when 50 Cent gets personal. This is why he has been such a force in rap for the last several years. No other rapper names names like 50 Cent does. No subliminals or vaguely confusing slicktalk. 50 Cent will say your name. Yes. YOU. He doesn’t like you very much. Honestly, I don’t like you either. ‘Before I Self Destruct’ is the album that all the bum ass rappers are praying we don’t discuss. There isn’t too much manufactured cool on this disk. This is not Sinatra rap.
This is smack ya’ baby mama in the ovaries music. Enjoy
