YO! MTV RAPS sneakers


YO! MTV RAPS and Puma have teamed up again to release some snaeakers. These joints might be the ugliest sneakers I've ever seen but for some reason I like them. There are a couple of other models in the pack so click HERE to check them all.
Check this classic freestyle from the last episode of YO! MTV RAPS - this might be the illest freestyle session line up EVER!


Adidas JAM MASTER JAY pack





Adidas just released the Jam Master Jay pack - sneakers, track jacket, polo and t-shirt. I'm not feeling these Adidas as much as the original JMJ's they did after his passing, but I'm cool with anything that pays tribute to the legend Jam Master Jay. On another note, PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF THE FASHION GODS, IF YOU BUY THIS PACK DON'T WEAR EVERYTHING AT ONCE.

LET HIM SING!


"There’s a reason Prince didn’t do Purple Rain, then Red and Varsity Blue Rain, then White and Maize Gold Rain." 

There’s always a drunk girl at every concert hollering for her old favorites. You go see Madonna, and she’s shrieking ‘Papa Don’t Preach!’ (And you want to preach a few things to her, but instead you give her the hairy eyeball). Same thing with Prince. Poor man thinks he’s come up with some new shit, and she’s screeching, ‘Pur-pul Raaaaaaain!!!! Pur-pul Raaaaaaain!!!!’ Not to mention the guy who’s clearly been partying since 1999. But I say, let Prince sing. Let him sing his new stuff. Try it. I don’t care if ‘When Doves Cry’ reminds you of the first time you got lucky, let it rest! maybe you can get lucky again?

To the fans…

I’m talking to all you clowns reliving your lives through retro Jordans. Let the man sing. Guess what? He’s got new shit too. Don’t be the drunk floozy at the Michael Jordan concert hollering about the retro 4s, the new 11 colorway, all that mess. Get over it! I know 14s remind you of balling in high school. I know the 5s were the ones your mom wouldn’t buy for you. I’m saying, let it go. Turn to your buddy, relive the moment, and let’s move on. What about the 23s?

Sneaker Confidential


Here is a pretty dope show called Sneaker Confidential that aired on CBC. From the performance side of things, to the professional athlete side of things, to Hip-Hop's influence, and of course the sneaker heads, this show has all bases covered. 

YOU CAN WATCH THE ENTIRE FILM BY CLICKING HERE

You can also view select scenes that include watching a top artist customize a pair of sneakers, a trip to the exclusive Flight Club sneaker store in New York, MC Serch talking about getting mugged for his sneakers, a tour of the New Balance sneaker factory, and a visit to a human performance lab to give sneakers a test.


And just because we're on the topic of kicks, check these Jordan's called the PHLY (more flicks over at Hypebeast.com)...



Class is in session - Sneakerology 101




I seriously thought this was joke. Don't get me wrong, I love sneakers more than the next guy and if I happened to be in my first year at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh best believe I would be taking Sneakerology 101.  I just find it weird that you can now get academic credits for something I've been taking for the past 20 years. 


Air Jordan V - Air Force 1 Fusion



Not sure what I think of these. They are pretty fresh, but at the same time not so fresh... but clean. Still better than the new Jordans. I still can't get into anything past the V's.
