AIR ROYAL

Nike is stepping their game up. The Air Royal's are simply classic. The simple design added with the metallic silver colorway and premium materials make these kicks an AUTO-COP for sure. They are pricey tho, getting close to the 200 mark at Caliroots, you'll have to wait to see the price state side.

So since you can only get these from Sweden at the moment here is Swedish treat. (A Swedish Fish????)

O'Spada - Time

COMMONWEALTH/REEBOK PUMP

I love the recent collabs that have been showin up. These are FIRE! Known as the Sea Foams, the name does the sneaker justice. I'm feelin the mesh tongue and toe box, and the white heel is something different. This is an AUTO-COP for 120 beans. Dropping in August, get them at Commonwealth.

THE CHEF

Raekwon has so many photos with him and gallon bags of weed, it's laughable. Not to mention that like piece he has next to him. Maybe it's all fake?

I doubt, the dudes from Wu-Tang and just insane and don't give a fuck about anyone or thing. I posted this cause Raekwon is FINALLY due to drop Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II this summer, August 11th to be exact.


Only Built 4 Cuban Linx is arguably one of the best rap albums ever, not to mention that it was a concept album which simply did not happen in Hip Hop at the time of release (1995).

It's been 4 years now since Raekwon announced that he was doing a sequel, with release dates have been pushed back countless times. Who the hell knows if this is really going to drop but with production from RZA, Dre and Dilla the music should be amazing. Not to mention Ghostface, GZA, Inspectah Deck and Method Man are making appearances on the album too.

PLEASE LIVE UP TO YOUR HYPE!

Here is a preview

Raekwon - The Set Up (zShare TY Hypebeast)

MAJOR LAZER

Mad Decent always has some crazy shit going on, and if you don't follow Diplo on tweeter your missing out. This is the video for Major Lazer's "Hold the Line" video. Peep the action figures, reminds me of the awesome 80's action figure videos LOL.

A-Trak and Lazer got a show coming in NYC that I'm def hitting up. Fool's Gold always has the best flyers, they got a bunch of new music up so take a look at the link.



Back to the details on the show, it's on June 17th (Only 3 days after Bonnaroo) at the Ultra Lounge. I've never been there but I can't miss this show. A-Trak, MSTRKRFT, Major Lazer, DJ AM, and DJ Jazzy Jeff make up the line up. RAVE THE PLANET.

Here is one of the Fool's Gold downloads, Congorock is one of their up and comers.

AIR MAX 90 "FIRE HYDRANT"

I'm dig'in the silver and blue, they compliment each other nicely. Also the black is very subtle, especially the sole. I expect to see these in Bromeo's closet with in a month or so. Oh and peep the tongue, YES that is a fire hydrant. LOL. I'll throw some music up later.

NEW GRIZZLY BEAR VIDEO

Two Weeks



They look like those porcelain dolls my mama used to get my sister. Very well done in my opinion, gotta love Grizz, song is called two weeks.

MUSIC/COBRASNAKE BRO

"I'll get You" Classixx feat. Jeppe/ Kitsuné x The Cobrasnake EP from Maison Kitsuné on Vimeo.

The Cobrasnake Bro directed this video. I dig the song, the video is decent too. It's crazy that this bro went from taking Polaroids to directing music videos, and traveling all over the place with weird Alt people like Micky Avalon.

Do you think they all do heroin together?

Is Micky a guy? Or was he a girl at some point?

Who is that bad actor he hangs with?

And why do they chill with that Andy dude who has Gary Coleman Syndrome?






Here's a download for ya'll.


Esser - Headlock

FOR MY GIRLS

Alright so last summer every chick had the "Gladiator" style sandals (Chicago biddies were OD'in). Now you can be hipster and bohemian at the same time!

My questions: If two women (or more than two even) are walking down the street with "Gladiator" sandals on do they battle to the death with an axe and a mace? Does a shield and chain mail magically appear? Can we bet on this? Will chariots fall from the sky?

Ok maybe I went to far but I dig these. They are the Gladiator Mids. Cop them for your women friend.

TORO BRAVO PACK

Originally these were due out May 30th, but Nike changed their minds. Now they are set to drop on the 23rd. In my opinion this is the best package, both kicks are fresh and they both feature the 3m material. AUTOCOP yall.

Love Yuksek ya'll here is a new remix.

Phoenix - Lisztomania (Yuksek Remix)

BONUS: Dub-Step is taking over......

Babylon System - Get Up Now

GOT ANY GUM???

KicksOnFire just put these up today, Supreme Electrolime Ozone Dunks. The gum sole is niceeee, it's a throw back to my middle school days where everyone was rockin the gum sole. The fabric is woven too, which gives them a different look and texture. Nike is start to get really creative with their dunks, a lot of new fabrics and colorways are due out. I'll Keep ya'll posted.

Here is a Chromeo remix that is fireee obv.

Feist - Sea Lion Woman (Chromeo Remix)

GETTING MY BLOG BACK ON YA'LL

I'm loving the RT1's, which in the sneaker head community are known as the Un-Yeezy's. You can cop these for under 100 beans too (Air Yeezy's=250 at retail). The print under the tongue and the purple laces are nice accents also, I will def be coping these. They are due to come out by the end of this month. (TY KicksOnFire for the pic)


Also be a fucking gangsta this summer and get some boat shoes. CLASSIC. (TY HYPEBEAST)

Here is the greatest remixing themselves. Check out Remix After All, it's a Daft Punk remix mix created by some of the popular music blogs on the interwebs. It will be release on May 20th.

Daft Punk - Robot Rock (Maximum Overdrive Remix) (MediaFire Link)

STOLE THIS FROM ANOTHER BLOG......

Ok so some music blog posted this band, they are called The Vanish. To me they sound like P-Thugg and Dave-1 had children, then their children had a baby, then the same with the two french Justice Bros did the same thing. So now we have a Chromeo seed and a Justice seed, these two seeds meet and make The Vanish. Fellow me? Probs not but thats cool. Anyways listen they sounds awesome, download below. Oh wait I'm going to post a pair of kicksssssss........


So these are some mexico inspired jump offs, gotta love the Air Max 1 (True OG). Check out HYPEBEAST to see the crazy outfits that were behind the making of these (I'm too lazy to post the pic). Kicks are a collab between Nike (Obv) and Sneakers BR, on the streets they'll be known as the "Lanceiro" whatever that means. Does Anyone know Spanish?

MUSIC:

The Vanish - Heartbeat (MediaFire)

The Vanish - Hold On (MediaFire)

(This music was stolen from DISCO DEMONS hit the link so I don't feel bad...... Or don't I can careless LOL)

RANDOM MUSIC.....

So I have been showing no love to the blog, and what better way to show love for the something than giving it wonderful sounds. So I'll post some quality tunes after this rant.

Come to find out recently there was a sword fight in the Indianapolis, like a legit sword fight. What I find amazing about these sword bros is that where ever this shit went down there was 2 swords there for the duel.

Who the hell still wields a sword? I mean the Chinese created gun powder in the 200 A.D.

Secondly, wtf when was the last time 2 bros battled it out with the honorable blade? Even Alexander Hamilton lost his duel with a pistol. Should I purchase a sword now and carry it every where I go? Being ready for when it is my time to duel a challenger.

The bros were 39 and 69 year olds and not only did one of them die (which is usually the out come of a sword fight), they killed a woman trying to stop the fight, D bags.

Will fencing be banned in the US? Or will sword safety classes begin like those hand gun ones? Should Brobama duel Kim? (that Korean bro) Do the pirates in Somalia have swords? Which leads to a better question do they have parots, eye-patches, peg legs, booty, a plank, etc....

Finally will swords be banned from the bathroom? No Homo LOL. TUNAGE below

Deer Tick - Easy

Waves Machines - Keep the Lights On (The Striaght Scissor Sisters?)

Jamiroquai - Canned Heat (Calvin Harris Remix)

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Zero (MSTRKRFT Remix)

OFF THE WALL....

Before I post these kicks, I got beef yall. Where in the hell did my last post go????
I mean WTF can I at least get an email informing my that your going to take my shit down.

Other beefs today, 3 papers due tomorrow.. FML.
Why would it ever be necessary to hand in a draft for a professor? I mean what are you going to do, critique my shit so it sounds more like your words? If my paper or writing is trash then its trash.

Lastly. If I went to Israel would that make me a crazy Israeli supporter person? I just want to meet that beautiful Jew Baby that mistakenly added me on FB yall. Damn now I'm an internet stalker.

OK on to the kicks. Vans has been dropping heat since the beginning of time.....
Well damn near that.




These bad boys would the the Vans Zapato Del Barco which is Spanish for.... I don't fucking know Spanish. These are fire tho, why buy boats shoes when you can cop these at Caliroots. Seriously these are offical enough for me to wear to a formal occasion.

Here is a song cause I'm feeling all crazy, Trackademicks from FOOLS GOLD was in on the production. Production is really hot, the dudes flow is strange but I might get into it after a couple listens. Remember boys & girls, multiple listens is the only way to full grasp the music.

Lyrics Born - Funky Hit Records

NEW MATERIAL FROM CUDER....

New jam from Kid Cudi, produced my Yeezy. There is a Lady Gaga sample and Kanye and Common are guest on the track, oh ya and they sent it to A-Trak to put some scratches on there.

Had to post this pic of Cudi getting his Steve Aoki on. Aoki is loved by every one, I need to meet this meme. Maybe he is the DJ form of Jesus or something, kinda looks like an Asian Jesus actually.

Do you think I can spark a bromance with Asian Jesus DJ/Goose Pour'in/Ult Alt Bro Steve Aoki?

Kid Cudi - I Poke Her Face (Ft. Kanye West & Common) (zShare)

NEW SCHOOL R&B

Vice Records, who is home to King Kahn and the Shrines, just put up a free download off their up coming album What Is?! Call it soul or R&B, who cares the genre the shit is simply amazing! Their live show is outrageous (King Kahn rocks a sick golden cape and a fez). Right click the link to cop it, double click to preview.

King Kahn & The Shrines - Land of the Freak

IT'S ALIFEEEEEEEE.......

These are called the Everybody Mid sneaker by Alife. (TY HIGHSNOB). Although I have to say they are pretty tight, clearly they look like a pair of Vans half cabs. This is what the sneaker game is now, STUPID COPY CATS (in my high pitched 3rd grade voice). So the real question is are these hotter than some half cabs that will drop this spring/summer (thats when these are due to drop). Being the good lil blogger that I am, I'll supply a picture of some fire Vans that are blue to boot (no pun intended).

ARE THESE MORE AUTHENTIC/HOTTER/OWNING THE ALIFE'S?

Clearly these Vans are beast (TY SNEAKERFILES) and they are cheaper than the Alife's.

This is how I see it, Kobe is great but MJ will always be the greatest. That is a metaphor about sneakers, fuck I am soo God Damn DEEP.

On that note here is some tunage, HYPETRAK put this up last night.

U-N-I & Ro Blvd. - A Love Supreme(zShare)
It's the whole album, I listen and find it having a nice old school vibe to it. Enjoy.

DESIGNER KICK OF THE WEEK

My dudes over at HYPEBEAST put these up today. These are the Alejandro Ingelmo Woven High Top. These bad boys will run you well over 500 beans. A lot of high end fashion kicks have been hitting the market, and they all seem to get doing well. The sneaker game has found its niche in the high end designer world (Thank you Kanye). These are so sleek and smooth it wouldn't be a problem to rock'em with a suit (Too bad I can't afford'em LOL). Every week I'll post a top designer shoe to show that urban fashion has taken over bitches.

Here's what would be playing off my i-Pod if I was sportin these on a walk, ya know a lil classic feel with that Nu Nu.

Sharam - She Came Along ft. Kid Cudi (zShare)

MUSIC POST ...... T-WAYNE, WTF

Flying Lotus - Los Angeles [Music Video - HD] from Brendan Sinnott on Vimeo.

This video is off the meat rack, in the words of Bromeo. It has clips of a bunch of science fiction films, including 2001 Space Odyssey, and is simple as trippy as the parade with people on stilts at Bonnaroo.

Right here I got a couple remixes. I'm pretty late with the DJ Class and Yeezy remix but it's so firey I couldn't resist. After that is the Bag Raiders rendition of Call Me Up, which is one of my favorite Chromeo songs (Bag Raiders did it justice tho!).

Last is T-Wayne....

If you can't figure it out it's Lil Wayne and T-Pain together and apparently they are going to do a whole album. This perticular song features T-Pain rappin (He is actually pretty nice) and Weezy singing (Eh..). The FADER has a post about it as well. Enjoy.

DJ Class - I'm The Shit (Remix Ft. Kanye West)

Chromeo - Call Me Up (Bag Raiders Remix)

T-Wayne - He Raps He Sings It's T-Wayne

NIKE GIVING SOME DIFFERENT LOOKS, DELTA FORCE HIGH INCLUDED

Thank you to SoleAddict34 on the beloved forum Nike Talk for hooking us up with this pic. These are all set to drop throughout 2K9. Nike is set on Hybrid sneakers and there is no end in site. Some are dope, and others aren't. Either way the Delta Force's are firey.

These are due out in summer I believe, and they are hot like the middle of the summer (Thank You Mims). Seems like nike is trying to keep up with the times by putting this more casual sole on the Delta's, which IMO is really nice. Kinda look like a Supra or Vans sole, but who cares the shit is hot. AUTO COP! Oh and KicksOnFire calls the sole vulcanized, whatever the hell that means, I think they meant Supranized or Hipsterized or We removed the basketball ball sole for a casual one because no one would ever play ball in a pair of Delta Forces anymore.

ATTENTION ALL HYPEBEASTS!!!!!!!!

The classic HYEPBEAST clothing line SUPREME has given us a lil taste of whats to come for their spring and summer collections.

Is paisley the new hound's tooth?

I hope not, can't wait to see some pics of dudes rock'in these hats with a Stussy shirt and neon sneakers. Wait am I making fun of myself? FUCK!

Click the links to check out more some hot hoodies, and there is a fresh varsity jacket too.

How The Baron and Adam West Get Down, NH.

Alright, I'm going to be a good alt and start this blog up. I'll be posting music, videos, fashion, and crazy pics I find. Maybe talk about upstate a lil too, why not?

Yesterday some of my friends and me went to Cuse to catch the Ra Ra Riot show, me and my buddy Baron didn't have tickets tho. Being that they were from Cuse naturally the show sold out and NO ONE was selling tickets. So we decided we'll just hit the bars, FUCK IT right? But before I tell that story let me give you the run down.

Basically Baron and I were on a strict budget for this adventure, we both had 20 beans and the concert tickets were 12. As we were getting into Cuse, KT basically let us know that we weren't getting tickets to the show cause it was sold out. This is were it gets interesting.

Luckily Bromeo had some fire, so we went to one of his old College Bro's place and indulged. Once that was over with it was decided that Dinosaur BBQ was our next stop. Being that Baron and I were poor for that day this wasn't going to fly with us, mission find a Dive Bar with PBR begins!

At this point we are wandering around Armory Square, with no Dive or PBR insight, checked a couple places out with the walk in and out move (one dude was not very happy about this had said something like "Why the fuck did you come in if you don't want something.."). Baron wanted to hit up Sound Garden, and I thought this was a good time killer so we did. It's a must go if you in Syracuse, Baron bought some indie CD that I have no idea how to pronounce the name but whatever.

After about an hour of browsing we continued on mission Dive with PBR, and because the sun shines on a dogs ass somedays (or however the fuck it goes) we walk into this Irish Pub with a dude at the bar with a PBR Tall Boi. FUCKING SCORE BITCHES, so now I'm at $18.00 with one PBR in me (NH), and we head back over to Dino BBQ.

When the Baron and myself get there Bromeo and the Bros had just gotten there food. I ordered some Chili, it was bangin, and we mowed what Bromeo and the Bros didn't want. YESSSSS! Lunch for 5 beans, I'm down to $13.00 and the Baron is still at $18.00.

After lunch, we go back to he Bros house and indulge again (Thank You Bromeo). OK so now we gotta go to this show.

We get to the Westcott and make the final decision that we aren't going to even try to get tickets (Passion Pit wasn't playing anyways so I could careless about RaRa Riot). After splitting a pack of 27's the money count was now at, Baron = $15.00 Me = $9.75.

At this point we not what must go down, pool our money go to Chuck's (Thats a lil youtube vid to give you an idea). So after a bunch of pitchers of Honey Brown and some French Fries (Thank you whoever that 2 beans came from) I was blasted as was the Baron. Having enough of the Bros at Chuck's, although there are some babies there. We bounce.

Bromeo picked us up, and we come back to the UT.

Moral of this blog, you can eat and get fucked up in Cuse with 20 beans no problem.

Here is a song for ya'll. I'm still hungover and will post some other shit later.
