PARDON ME I HAD TO LAUGH AT THAT

that is all...carry on.

NIKE ROYAL MID PREMIUM WHITE/METALLIC GOLD

I'm still on the fence about the look of the Royal Mid. It looks a whole like the women's Blazer. Nonetheless, this premium version is dope, & the gold textured toe & accents are ill.

JAMES GRADY PRETTY UGLY

"Pretty Ugly originated in Portland, Oregon by Elton Sherman (19) and Phillip Nguyen (18) back in early 2007. After months of searching for an artist, they linked up with 20-year old up-and-coming artist, James Grady in mid-2007. After about a year and half of conflicting school schedules, personal adversity, and straight hustling/promoting...they bring to us the debut of "Pretty Ugly." The clothing line's first series includes three concepts: Raisin Hell, Cops are Pigs, and Marryland (Marilyn)/ Good Die Young.. The shirts release as an online exclusive at Midnight on 5/31/ 2009, and can be bought at http://www.prettyuglyonline.com/ . For more pics and info on the release you can visit http://digitalape.blogspot.com/"

Very dope...good job Mr. Grady... I'll be needing a couple of these ASAP!

NIKE RT1 WHITE/WHITE/BLUE

I've been liking the colors Nike has done with the RT1 High. Very simple, clean, and fairly fresh...these don't disappoint either.

CASIO G-SHOCK "LOVE THE EARTH & THE SEA" FROGMAN & GULFMAN

Out of all the G-SHocks that come out, the Frogman & The Gulfman are some of the coldest. I'll probably start wearing those models more often.

sidebar: it's funny how all these hood stores in Detroit are sellin G-Shocks now... like my homie Tone said: "The hood n***as are trynna dress like us now"...LOL!

THROWBACK TRACK: CITY HIGH FT. EVE "CARAMEL"

Many of y'all probably remember City High's hit "What Would You Do?". If you were alive in 2001, you either heard it, saw the video, or a mixture of the two...don't act like you didn't, lol...Anyways, this was their "jam" that I was definitely feelin wayy more than "What Would You Do?"

SIDEBAR: Claudette Ortiz = OH SO SPICY

NEW LINE TO LOOK OUT FOR: FINALIZED

The home Mic Dubb is one of the newest official/unofficial members of the Burn Rubber family. He's been working on his line FINALIZED for some time now. Last week, he came through and showed me one of the first samples that he has for his line. In my opinion, I think it's pretty ill. Be on the lookout in the next few months...

LADIES, LEMME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK...WOULD YOU ROCK THIS???

Last Saturday, I was introduced to some of the best food I've ever had in my life. The location is....well, I can't give that info away right now, but what I will say is that the "Sprinkle Me" is key. watch the vid to see what it is...

NIKE WOMENS DUNK HIGH CANVAS FALL 2009

Ladies: Nike is CLEARLY© lookin out for y'all in the Fall, especially with these joints. I like how tye-dye isn't that cheesy, rainbow-looking shit that you see a lot of the time when "tye-dye" is used. That paired with the quality canvas is too illy tho...
