This is one of our best podcasts yet! Joell Ortiz jumps on the call and drops mad gems about the rap game and who in SlaughterHouse rocks the most heat. We also talk to Kadoma, the founder of H-Town Sneaker Summit, about his convention being the focal point of All-Star weekend in Houston.
This is the BEST podcast on sneaker culture. #TRUTH
Niggas call every native American print they see ‘Aztec’ mainly because niggas was taught to be ignorant to brown people’s heritages. I only feign ignorance for laughs on the Combat Jack Show. Secretly, I know more than I really want to let on because no one likes a smart ass either.
I called T-Bag out for posting the links to these pieces he bought and calling them a ‘Fit. There are rules to this shit we do here and the first rule is to come correct without fronting on your ‘Fit. Too many people on the internets are fraudulent in name and deeds. Not saying T-Bag is fake because he really did put some bread in the prA’Li fund and he really did post some drops on this page, but as a trusted member of the dP dot com fam I could not let him submit an incmplete outfit.
I’m eagerly awaiting T-Bag complements to these pieces he copped and I’m here to tell you he inspired me to put these I.T.’s in my late winter wishlist…
The workshirt is bananas. I can tell its as thick as a jacket. Fux around and I would be the type of hype to rock it inside out.
The scarf is official tissue. MUST. COPP. NOW!!!

We received the news yesterday that Jazz legend Donald Byrd has flown home to heaven.
Donald Byrd broke from the traditional constraints of jazz into the fusion of funk and rhythm and blues music. His collaborations with the Mizell brothers transformed the R & B sound of the late 1960s early 1970s.
You might recognize that song as the sample source from Black Moon’s ‘Buck ‘Em Down’.
Byrd was born in Detroit and his music served as inspiration for another legendary Michigan musician. Peep the song ‘Think Twice’…
We will celebrate Jay ‘Dilla’ Dee’s homegoing this weekend as well as Donald Byrd’s passing. All I know is that heaven is jamming hard this Sunday.
