Sandwiches…

Rocking this Meyhem Lauren classic ode to sandwiches whilst I assemble my post-Combat Jack Show vittles.

The night was crazy as we sipped and chatted with Bun B before he ships off to Europe to rally in the Gumball 3000.

Then we chilled onstage with Just Blaze as he brought out multiple heavyweights for his Red Bull Music Academy soundclash.

Then we dipped into DumBo for a secret loft party featuring Riff Raff thrown by KarmaLoop. The next wave was back in Manhattan, but since Combat Jack is a Brooklyn dude once you cross the bridge for the night you don’t go back into the city.

I was cool with that since I’m old now anyhoo.

I raided the ‘frige for the last two slices of cheddar and roasted ham.

But first I dropped some tomatoes and this fiery dijon mustard on two pieces of toasted peasant bread.

Peace to Matt Raz for leaving me with that clip of ooooweee I had for dessert.

Run The Jewels On You Fools!

Killer Mike and El-P are the Stroker and Hoop of rap music. A couple of burned out private detectives itching for a fight with anyone who’s making noise. Their turn on the Combat Jack TV Show deserves more than the 30 minutes you are gonna watch below.

Mike and El are also a supergroup now called ‘Run The Jewels‘.

Thank them later.

Gangstarr 4 Life…

DJ Premier stopped by the Combat Jack TV show and brought me back to the days when Hip-Hop was so beautiful for me. It’s crazy to think we sat with someone who’s music DEFINES a genre. While Guru (R.I.P.) wasn’t the greatest emcee he was the perfect complement to Premier’s soundscape.

Take a ride down memory lane with me for a moment and you’ll agree with me that DJ Premier needs to be placed on rap music’s Mount Rushmore.

No one can see this man.

As per my father AND my grandfather Willie Mays, the ‘Say Hey Kid’ was the greatest person to ever put on a baseball mitt, swing a bat and wear a pair of cleats. Say Hey just had a New Year start for him so I’m giving props.

Thanks to G-Roc and Teek for making the cipher complete. Sneaker Fiends Unite! is the ONLY podcast you want to fux with when it comes to sneakers, streetwear and the lifestyle they represent.
