Outliers Interview

A good interview about a great book. Check it out.

Straight Razor

I rarely shave with a straight edge, yet something about it is so precise so fresh. Here's a great article in the New York Times about F.S.C.and the straight razor process.

THE HUNDREDS X DISNEY - WTF???

THEHUNDREDS // DISNEY // THE LOST BOYS from Bobby Hundreds on Vimeo.

When I first came across The Hundreds a few, I thought of them and the way they positioned themselves as this anti-establishment brand. Like down with corporations go independents! Now come to find out - unless Bobby is really on some April fool's shit again they are doing a collaboration with Disney - one of the largest corporations in the world. I mean sure I like the ideas of the lost boys too, who wants to grow up and be an adult - we want to have fun forever and hopefully get paid for it, bangarang. But doesn't this seem to step away from their core model of being this hardcore independent fashion brand? Hmmm, just food for thought.

AN OLDIE BUT GOODIE

I know it's like enough with The Cool Kids footy already, but geez I have soo much I don't know what to do with. This video was before they were famous, when were still renting mini vans to travel, when things were just beginning. They call it the grind work before the tour buses and fancy hotels. Hey this doesn't happen over night - you work hard to get where you are in this business. But of course its all in fun. Enjoy.

GOOD INTERVIEW WITH KANYE

A picture is worth a thousand...

I found this over at the inquiring mind blog yesterday. I will say why get caught up in words, when pictures can say everything. I'm a little late on this discovery, but still its worth the up. I find my self taking certain pictures, and saving them for later inspiration. I suggest like the blogs author JJJJound, you should do the same.

I'm A Free Man

Freeman's is one my favorite places in the world. They encompass the whole feeling of Fre$h & Proper. Complete with their own retail space, their own clothing line - only available at Freemans. A barbershop in the back of the store, and a full restaurant down the ally - what more could you ask for. They have recently opened a new spot in Brooklyn. Check em out.

COOL KIDS BOUNCE TOUR DAY 3!!! from Jamar Eaton on Vimeo.

Above - this was one of my last days on tour. It's funny how things work. You go to bed in one city and wake up in another, its amazing how that happens. Let alone going up to a nice room at the Venetian and getting a much needed shower! Yet the Vegas stop for me though was about actually doing work, getting the merchandise organized, running to wal-mart to grab a few groceries for the bus and other much needed things. Do work, no matter what its a good look for everybody. After the show we jumped into a limo and went to the after party. Ended up seeing Mike Tyson - wow, and coming up a little bit off of the Roule tables. You have to love Vegas. Enjoy.

Str8 from Va$hte's blog.

Yes i'm blog jacking today, been running around getting some things in order. I haven't had time to surf the world wide and find the most invigorating content. Instead I will pull some stuff from those who directly inspire me. Like Va$hte. Rumor has it she might be in town for Mikey Rocks birthday. Stay tuned for more info.





I must agree this is one of my favorite Spike Lee joints. Check her site for more!
