So as the story goes, this shirt was banned from selling at Karmaloop due to its exploitation like message. Hmmm. I've seen far more offensive shirts for sale, but that's fine. I guess its all interpretation. Anyway, I say this is a clever marketing scheme that hasn't been picked up on the streetwear's network yet. Anyway, I'd rock it.

Fall/Winter Supreme!
I think the most hyped piece from this line is going to be the JFK shirt (check out the full preview here), but as usual, I'm most stoked on their accessories. Supreme doesn't dissapoinment with a sleek new ash-tray (every house needs one, right?), key chains, their highly favored 5 panel caps, even boxing gloves, lol. I'm most set on copping the Olympic Beanie above (2nd to the left). That is CLEAN!!! Drops Thursday, Sept 4th. And if you see something you REALLY want, be in line by Wednesday afternoon at the latest.
In My White Tee
New shirt from a start up brand, In My White Tee. Hmmm, clever shirt. Could have probably done more with it? But for $16, what can you say?Nawthin, Nawthin, You ain't sayin NAWTHIN! Check it.

Damn, so Stussy waits until the day I leave Sin City to update their store with the fall line and these three Las Vegas exclusive shirts. Check the Undercrown Collab and the Eric B/Rakim joint, wow. Cop the exclusives at the flagship shop, and Fall 08 is available at Stussy Direct now (look for the nice accessories this season!)

Vans x In4mation
Lovin everything on these Denim Half Cab's except the gum colored sole, but they were going for the mechanic look more than the clean train conductor look I guess, lol. Pic via HS.

Ebay find of the Day
Oh wooooow. Good price too. This was one of my fav tag teams back in the day (well, after the Hart Foundation broke up). I don't know why, those guys were nuts. Anyway, if you want to waste more time than you can afford to waste, youtube early WWF videos of some of your old time favorite wrestlers from the 80s and 90s. So over the top, so hilarious. People to keep in mind: Goldust, Ultimate Warrior, Brutus the Barber Beefcake, The Model Rick Martel, The Mountie, Demolition, The Nasty Boys, and countless others. Looking back, the "unintentional comedy factor" is pretty sky high....

"Joker" inspired Nike Dunk
Wow. Check the denim/plaid/nubuck mark up Dunk designed after the Joker's Suit in the recent Dark Night flick. Pretty smooth.

Music Update (Kid Cudi, Nas, Skillz, Outlawz)
So I fell off a bit on buying new music, especially since I've been literally playing the hell out of that "10 Deep Presents - A Kid Named Cudi" mixtape. I knew you could wear out cassettes, but the cd is new to me. The cd is literally deteriorating from constant bump-age. Check Kid Cudi out now, mixtape still free via 10 Deep. If you are hesitant or don't believe, you can streem the songs via imeem on that link (My personal favorites are Man on the Moon, the Prayer, Day N Night, and Down and Out...)
Cop the shirt they made in conjunction with the release while you're at it, lol.
Anway, I took a break from Cudi to finally BUY the new Nas ('Untitled'), Skillz (The Million Dollar Back Pack), and Outlawz (We Want In - the street lp). Without gettin to involved, I thought Nas definitely lived up to the hype (Sly Fox is crazy), Skillz did his thing (he's been sick, we all knew that, but check #5 if you didn't, lol), and I was slightly disappointed with the 'lawz cd, probably because their last cd, Outlaw 4 Life, was one of my favorite LP's ever, and I was expecting them to build off that vibe a little more. We'll see how thier Cashville Debut is in early 09...

:( RIP Bernie Mac
Daaaaaaaaaaaaamn. I didn't even know Bernie Mac was sick with pneumonia? Bernie Mac has ALWAYS been one of my favorite comedians right behind Martin Lawrence, he absolutley dominated every part he had (Jang a lang, jang a lang!), and his stand up act was ridiculous. Sad times...
Spare 6 mins and pay respects to one of the original Kings of Comedy, and a true legend...
