Grunge Revival.

As a trend watcher and not 'buyer-into' I tend to observe them and base my style off what is OUT. In reality, trends are in and out as the seasons are, which is VERY fast and hard on the pockets. Sticking to some of your own choices will most DEF keep your selections going through to next fall. Now that the weather should be getting warmer, certain clothes can come out of hibernation and to be seen on the streets!

This is one look I know I adore. This grungy, dirty street look. M.K Olsen.

Keep it simple? But don't go overboard, its easy to do that when going for the 'laid-back-dads-shirt' look.

Hair: Messy, not to 'done'.
Jewelry: Chunk bracelets, and rings. Layered necklace.
Shirt: Not fitting, 1 to 2 sizes larger.
Shoes: Vintage looking, if not actually being. Simple and grungy.

Lupe Releases Tour Dates.

As you will come to find, I am surely an AVID Lupe listener and fan. Having seen one of his other tours and having watched him perform, it makes you all tingly inside (In the most not-creepy way). So what else would make me happier than to find out his Lasers tour has kicked off. Tour dates were posted today...

He'll be in DC, @ club 9:30 on April 13.

People def underestimate siblings in the industry. Jessica and Ashley Simpson (BAD example.) But then people like Solange come along, with a different sound. Call her weird, but to me thats what pops about her. Shes different, and appeals to a whole other crowd than her sister does. She is certainly talented.

Once again Nike goes OD on the colorways. Here we have the Uptempos in Black and a powder blue.I am definitely not a fan of these.Why cant we stick to OG colorways?

Just recently I have become a fan of denims.So passing through some sites these caught my eye.Levi’s and Original Fake have teamed up to make a pair of S501, that are going to be coming out in spring of 2010.

As the world of hip-hop has seen many ups and downs, lately it hasn't just been about who's going to what club and who's got the biggest bank account. Now, they've turned to world domination.

Not the same type you're thinking of, but entering the types of industries that market shoes, designer brand clothes and accessories that make regular folks' cars look cheap.

In the recent months there had been speculation that certain rappers (eg. Kanye and Jay-Z) are part of a secret society - tied to the economy, $ = power. How true is this? We may not know, but one of the best in the industry has adressed this issue when he came across that same question...


Kweli, are you in the illiminati?

Song of the Day "Switch"



Lupe is more than a ‘rapper’, he expresses issues within his community rather then talk about mainstream materialistic nonsense. His words resonate in those who understand what he speaks of.

By: Filsan, aka Philly



Check out the Site support the homie. Chiefrockaindustries



This is a one of the pages out of the All Gone Book that is year. All Gone is a book that is produced once a year showcasing the Best of street culture from the year before. Check out the how they presented the shoes, Can you see the NY and LA in the pic?Thanks Craig from AgioLife for pointing that out. Check the site AllGoneBook.



Word is that only select footlockers an House of Hoops will get these on the release date of March 6, 2010. But that what they said about the Copper's so most likely most Footlockers will have them.Remember March 6,2010



For those who do know who REVOK is, he is a famous graffiti artist.He went to Australia and as he was leaving he got arrested for tagging all over Australia.

A Few Words From Nei Philon "I Want"

i want to go to a place, a beautiful place where i can be free to be me, to be more than a creative mind, to jus simply let my mind go a place called home. a place where everything and nothing means something. a place where i have everything and anything, where time has no consequence. walls are closing in on me and i wana spin ecstasy feeling more than jus free. i want the sky to open to my every prayer. all the pain goes away out of my mind out of my heart. i want a place wher you can climb every mountain and touch the sky, to kno hw it feels to fly. i want to know hw it feels to be fearless. no regrets, no more tears, go to this place that only allows love, joy, truth, forgiveness, and happiness. i want to be in a place between dark and light, where wrongs become right. i want to b the best that i can be, all i can be. a place where musik is apart of me, apart of the mind. i want to kno a place wher promises arent broken, secrets are open and told, mistakes are forgiven and forgotten. i want this place to be shared with anyone and evryone who wants the best with no judgement. no enemies. i want to feel all my dreams, waking up to see them in reality. i want to be in gods good grace, in this place i see no sins. i want independence not loneliness. spending days accomplshing every goal, spending nights with the one i call my love alone, cherishing every waking moment.waking up with a smile on my face to thank go for being so blessed. i dont want to forget the pain and hurt, but to simply learn to surpass it all. i want an understanding, a better understanding of the lyfe ahead of of me. nothing feels better den being accomplished and having nothing tear yu down, nothing standing in your way at the end of everyday. no one wants to be stuck in a bad dream everything is accomplised if yu believe..(have faith :)



Really listen to what he is saying.Someone told me I was going to be a freemason.
