MarQ Spekt Spits Bionic Jazz…

Wednesday, November 30th, 2011

“Bionic Jazz is a freeform hiphop album with a concentration on unorthodox somewhat experimental but wholly organic feel. It’s reminiscent of when jazz musicians would just pick up their instruments and play freely without worrying about the confines of what was the expected norm.

This project features various musicians and producers coming together to break down the barriers of todays current musical atmosphere. The first track released features School of Sharks representative MarQ Spekt, last heard on “MacheteVision” project with producer KNO, and MetalFace Records own Mobonix, last heard on DOOM’s “BORN LIKE THIS” record.

The track is entitled “Heroin Jonezz” produced by DOOM.”

Cyber Monday Lifestyle…

Wednesday, November 30th, 2011

I had to keep my Cyber Monday pickups simple since I already blew my grip on the Duncan Foamposites. Not to worry tho’ because it’s been reported that people clicked their way to more than $1.3 BILLION dollars in sales. What kind of recession is this country in again?

I hope most Americans aren’t like me tho’ because I decided to forego paying my cellphone bill to put my hat in the ring for Cyber Monday. Lol, and I mean ‘hat in the ring’ literally. Nothing makes me happy like a funky little knit ski cap and this joint is the fiyahwerkx.

SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!

Sunday, November 27th, 2011

When all the dust cleared from my Black Friday shopping insanity I was most pleased with the socks I bought to match up with my Air Jordan retro 6 ‘Detroit Pistons’. When I put these socks on you won’t be able to see the hits of red or grey. The only person who will know how well these socks match my shoes are me.

Rocking sneakers should be just like wearing your special socks. The only person you should be trying to please is YOURSELF. I understand the desire to be part of a tribe or a larger community. That’s the main reason why I love to visit the lineups and why I even started the website in the first place.

Belonging to a larger community is fun but only if you remain committed to your individual sense of swag. Once you look like everyone else you no longer have an identity. So remember to rock what YOU like and not what the hype machines tell you what is fresh, and that includes websites like DallasPenn.com

NBA BACK!

Sunday, November 27th, 2011

The cast is back to give us another season of the drama.

Will Dallas defend their title all the way to a repeat? Will Miami break thru to the promised land and give King James some credibility? Let’s not forget about Darth Kobe either.

Sure the owners put the players further under their thumb, but this is America and that is how we roll. Billionaires over millionaires.

Now on to important business…
