The perfect bowl for just about everything we eat, the Obol can keep your cereal crunchy, your pie a la mode from pie a la melting, and your cookies at the ready to dip in milk. What’s not to like?

TYPOE ✖ Confetti Death

 TYPOE: an anonymous prestidigitator and high-ranking glitterati. His handiwork, which swaths billboards, public arenas, and buildings literally rotting with neglect, has expanded from the crumbling edifice of a cultural misnomer into the social spotlight. Illuminating parodies between gang relations and organized religion, corporations and the massacre of war, TYPOE’s mixed media creations range from factory finished luxury items and graphics to vandalized found objects that flaunt a punk-like disregard for beauty. Simmering for the moment under the lid of ‘the gallery’ these fetishistic, narcissistic articles resonate with devastating potential and beget insurgent thoughts.

Manny Pacquio ✖ Nike Air Max 1.3 Trainer

In the 1.3 Max, Nike has given Pacquiao an extremely advanced and versatile shoe, which is extremely breathable that incorporates many of Nike’s newest technologies: Flywire in the forefoot for support, a full-length Max Air unit, and a full-length Cushion mid-sole for additional cushioning and resilience. The shoe also works in carbon rubber in the heel area for enhanced durability, and features a waffle pattern sole for maximum traction, and a sockliner printed with images related to the athlete’s past and present surroundings. look for a release before Manny’s next fight, at select NIKE SPORTSWEAR accounts.
Can't wait for these to drop. I'mma need that.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off ⚡ Trailer ⚡ Recut


I like the realistic approach of capturing more than the good times of Ferris’ day off. In this trailer, it grasps more of the overall theme of the movie.

Nike SB Dunk "Space Jam"

Closer look into the Nike SB Dunk Low-Pro “Space Jam, an upcoming release which has been getting a bit of buzz over the past week. Produced to pay homage to the original Air Jordan XI “Space Jam,” the dunks mimic the overall aesthetic quite well, pairing a black patent leather upper with mesh paneling and all the details we’d expect, including round laces and special blue accenting. An official release is due in May 2011 through Nike SB retail accounts. How do these stack up to the XI?

POKITT: Ultra Slim Card Holder

With banks and major public transportation systems already widely taking advantage of the scannable cards throughout much of Europe and parts of Asia (Pokitt has flawlessly scanned through with all detectors) and a steadily increasing presence in the U.S., concepts like these stand a chance of reinventing the way we think about wallets.
Brands can get in on the action too by making a customized version through Pokitt's PROMOTIONS CHANNEL. The pliable material can be molded in any color combination and can even be branded with company logos.
At $25 and available in six colorways, Pokitt makes it an affordable choice too. Currently selling through their ONLINE STORE, the Australian based company ships worldwide.
I need this. I'm not a fan of traditional wallets. Even money clips are too much in my pocket. This will fit nicely.

Air Jordan V "Wolf Grey"


When images first leaked of the 'Wolf Grey' Air Jordan Retro 5, they Immediately jumped to the top of just about everyone's list of must-have's. And with just under a month left before they release, the anticipation is greater than ever. Similar to other styles of the Air Jordan Retro 5, they make use of a complete-suede upper that's covered in the perfect shade of wolf grey.

  Hits of light graphite and white also help create the clean look, taking place on the tongue branding, midsole and sockliner. We also see an icey sole taking place below. Enjoy a closer look at the latest impressive retro release from the Jordan Brand and look for them to hit select retailers May 14th for $150.


WVIL ✖ A True CAMERA Phone

Dreamt up by the Seattle-based design firm Artefact, the patent pending WVIL (Wireless Viewfinder Interchangeable Lens) Camera Futura concept is beautifully designed with a slim body paired with interchangeable lenses, with a novel twist on the camera form we know and love—the lenses actually hold the sensors and camera components, which means it can be used wirelessly from the camera body. Full in-body image editing together with sharing options make the WVIL a true social media powerhouse for photography with greater image quality relative to the current trend in mobile phone photography. Let’s hope Artefact are foreshadowing the future with the WVIL.

Miss You BLACK


My friend Dale (BLACK) passed away last night. This is one of those Good guys! A hard working, respectful, and respected Man. People who barely knew him recognized his family had to be proud of the type of man he had become. He had a GOOD HEART.
It was shocking to hear he passed at such a young age, but I automatically regretted not reaching out to him as much as I wanted to. I should have kept him closer in my circle.
Sometimes we get too comfortable in our lives, and relationships become small and less important, because we feel as though we’ll always be here, and they’ll always be there, and we feel like, “We’ll get around to kickn it again when its convenient.” There’s a sense of procrastination that takes over portions of our lives without notice. I’ll miss Black, but he left us with the memory of someone we can all admire. Big K.R.I.T. - Made Alot
 Appreciate the people around you.
See the God within them.
Respect the opportunity to LIVE.

Quest SAINT Jacobs: 70s ✖ Hip-Hop Mixtape COMING SOON!!

Yesterday I woke up, and watched Black Dynamite. I thought it would be wise to see what the movie was all about. (It’s funny. They do a great job of emphasizing all the ridiculousness of blaxploitation.)
I multi-task in strange ways, so I was also  reading and watching an Nardwuar interview with Tyler, The Creator & Hodgy Beats. During the interview, Tyler was given several albums that influence his production. Those albums, along with blaxploitations inspired this mixtape. #70sIsh But to keep a focused theme, i've decided to base it around my favorite  tracks from GHOSTFACE & RAEKWON and the 70s songs that inspired the hits. Michael Jackson - We're Almost THere

I may be onto something... ㋡

Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes: I Miss You

★Black Dynamite★


I’m a big fan of pimps because of their original vernacular. It’s pure comedy. -- This is a scene from Black Dynamite, which is a blaxploitation made in 2009, features a long list of black celebrities playing pimps.

Maui Jims Sunglasses


GQ’s key item for this years spring and summer. They’re Maui Jims retro-styled tortoiseshell sunglasses. Classic shape with an great color way accent for khaki, which is going strong right now.
I'll co-sign it.

ONRA: Live beat making




“Even if it doesn’t sound hip-hop sometimes. Depending on the album: Chinese music, 80s funk… reggae or whatever. It is hip-hop no matter what.”

Blackbird Grey Tie

“Ties are the spice rack of the wardrobe.” What do I mean by that statement? Basically you should have an incredibly varied tie selection, like you would a varied spice rack. That way you can add whatever flavour you want to your outfit. While I probably extended that metaphor for longer than it should’ve been stretched, our basic point is that you need a big variety of ties and not just the crazy types.

Bill Amber's Leather Rucksack

It’s a thing of beauty. As he describes it: “Slightly smaller than my previous sacks as I was seldom filling them anyway.” Suede lined straps to avoid slipping off your shoulder and the bottom of the strap is attached to the outside of the bags; consequently very comfortable against your back. Very well done, as expected.
To cool for school. ㋡

Curb Your Enthusiasm - Survivor vs. Survivor



The writing and setup for this show is hilarious. It captures the smallest ironies in life and exaggerates them to bring attention to stupidity vs. stupidity. And it happens so frequently, yet realistically on the show that you can’t help but say to yourself… “some people,” because it is very relative to your everyday run-ins with “those people.”
