Brad Neely Videos
This guy is FRIGGIN’ INSANE. Insanely hilarious.
No fuckwords in these, though.
Wizard People
You may notice a rise in the (formerly nonexistent) use of the word “fuckword” on this blog.
Just wanna show you guys its origin. This is Wizard People, a re-envisioning of the first Harry Potter movie by Brad Neely. Who’s Brad Neely? Peep the next post.

A.P.C. x SophNet Jacket
APC and SophNet hooked up (again? waay too many collabs, guys) and brought us this jacket. Now, I’m not one for blatant profanity on my clothing, so I’d probably never buy this even if I had the chance, but outside of the Fuckword on the back, it’s pretty dope. Simple, which is what these two brands do best, and better than just about anyone you can think of. The white one looks like a lab coat, but the red and black joints are dope, so those are the ones I posted. They go on sale on Nov. 22, for anyone who’s thinking of putting said fuckword on their person.
Wise Words From the Homie Jay Smooth
This is exactly how I feel about EVERY CREATIVE THING I’ve EVER DONE, including this.

Whatup.
Told you I’d be back, just had to shore some ish up, yanahmean?
First off, I’ve got some new Lupe for ya’ll, called Fire, featuring a good, well known Jimi sample. Someone called me and told me about this, and knowing Lupe’s Nasir Jones-like track record of picking beats up to this point, needless to say I was a bit skeptical. Well, no need for that, the sample was pulled off well IMO, and the song comes out great. It’s the typical Lupe lyrical barrage, intricate, head-scratching, raw. Click the pic, hear the track:

What’s good?!
New Laptop
Newfound ability to post fully from nearly anywhere (except work, cuz we’re still NOT on the wi-fi train)
but besides that, I can post from home anytime, which is something I couldn’t even do with my old lappy.
I’m gonna have a bunch of videos, a bunch of Long Weekend info, a bunch of pictures, just a bunch of ill stuff, as was the case a short time ago, except this time, it’ll be posted frequently and in a timely manner. DOPE!
Hey Hey Hey
Whatup!
I honestly just haven’t had time for this jawn in a minute. I’ve been writing, reading, loving, fighting, hobbling, sleeping, pill popping, making appointments, kicking A’s and taking names. Things are on the ups, though, that’s for daggone sure. I’ve got a lot of great things in place, and, with any luck, some of those things will be popping up here for all to….. enjoy.
I’ve been listening to Camera nd Kuti a lot recently, so here they go go go! There is also a Wale link HERE for an unfinished, nigerian inspired track he posted on twitter. I think it’s fire, and I’m no naija boy.
Here’s French Navy by Camera Obscura
And here is Many Things by Seun Kuti
OMO NAIJA!!!!
Not really, though.
Nike SB Commercial: Ice Cube, P-Rod, KB24
This is a sick commercial on many levels. It’s Nike, the first object of my affection, P-Rod, one of my favorite skaters, and Kobe, who is slowly letting me hate him less, I have to admit. Not to mention the use of my favorite Cube song, Today Was A Good Day. It’s got it all. Here’s the extended commercial, and some behind the scenes with Paul. Enjoy.
Fashion Update: 7.31
What’s good.
Remember way back when, when i had a fashion update ay’day?
That’s deaded, waaaay too much for me. it started to become borderline distasteful to me. now? We got one for you once a week. from now on, I’ll take the best fashion find from each day, but since I just decided this, it’s a bunch from today, courtesy of HypeBeast, which they won’t all come from.
First up is the Medicom Toy Exhibition. They laid out it out very minimal, and they had their full arsenal on display, though there were many a bearbrick, they did well not to limit the display to our small round-faced buds.
Next up is the Nike jordan IV, in Red and Blue. I gotta have both, just me personally. They’re bound to be a big hit, so whenever these joints drop my ankle better be 100%, cuz I may have to stomp me a fellow size twelve rocker. Just sayin’.
Next is the Lasonic iPod Boombox i931. It takes an ipod, and has a battery option to rock a la Radio raheem. Coming out over at honeyee, in black and white.
Aaaaaaaaand finally, the obligatory G-shock, this one is a collab with the Brooklyn Circus. Swayt.
Buggin’ Out!
Am I Buggin out over this?
I was speaking to michelle on an upward incline, while sufficiently wigged out on perscription pain meds (THUG LYFE) and she asked me what the hell I wanted to make of myself, only in much kinder words.
A Lil’ backstory on Chelle, she’s a huge fan of Jamaica Kincaid and Tracy Chapman, who, after this conversation we had, I feel alot closer to somehow, which has been the catalyst for a renewed interest in their respective works (I had always checked for them on some levels, but now it’s gettin’ heavy as heaven for the two of ‘em.)
Jamaica and Tracy, and Ms.(Mz.?) Ani diFranco both feel that they need to be doing whatever it is they’re doing, to fulfill themselves, even moreso, to live. How many of us have a conviction that deep about anyone or anything? Is it crazy to anyone that i feel that way about music, and I’ve yet to put out a single?
Me and Lee had a BBM convo like a week and a half ago, and sparing the gory details, we decided that people need to have someone tell them that they should hold themselves in higher regard than they do, that people should care enough to care, if that makes sense. We both feel, from I gleaned, that life for either of us without being the cause of some change in the world, great or small, is time on earth squandered, air better breathed by someone else. but are we buggin’ out about this? Should we just chill and pay bills, and do what we can on the side? WTF?
Have you ever thought of yourself in the future? Have any of you ever had multiple, interchangeable visions of the future you? I haven’t. I only see myself pursuing one end. is that confirmation, or tunnel vision? Knowing all the risks, the rewards, the odds, the pitfalls and dangers and still wanting it just as much if not moreso, is that patience, or foolish ambition?
Am i buggin out?
