LOL....


Check these cards out. If you've ever been blocked (and we all have) all you have to do is hand this card to that enemy of mankind. He'll know what wrong he has done and will hopefully change his ways. Get em Here!

Kanye X LV Hi-Top...



Better pics of the shoes! These actually look really fresh with the bright sole. Real eye-catching and interesting. I'm feeling these shoes a lot. The straps look real clean. Pics via hiphopupdate.

T-Pain Feat YV, Fabo & Polow Da Don- Own Step Remix


This song dropped a lil while back but it was unfinished. The beat is sick on this track. Certified club banger, heavy bass, I'm feelin it. 

Rick Ross- Mafia Music


Fresh new track by The Boss. He's been MIA for about a month, I wondered what had happened to the big fella. I'm feeling this track right here though, he really bounced back from that security guard scandal a few months back lol.

Kanye West Interview


There's a good interview with Kanye over at DazedDigital. He discusses his blog, his collabo with Louis Vuitton and more. Check it out Here!

Nike Dunk Hi Coraline


Some detailed pics of the Coraline Dunk I posted a few weeks back. The shoe features a large button on the laces, an interesting addition to the dunk to say the least. Very interesting colorway also. Looks good though, and I definitely appreciate the detailing. Pics via highsnobiety.

Kanye West x LV hi-top Sneaker


Another kick designed by Kanye. A hi-top with two padded straps. The heel pant-leg catcher is similar to the low-top model. It appears to have suede and leather just like to low-top also. Interesting colored sole, but the picture is under a weird light so I can't really tell. Looks fresh!

Flo Rida Feat Chris Brown- Sweat


Smooth ass track. Chris Browns got a good chorus on this one. Supposedly this was cut from his forthcoming album, idk why though.

Jagged Edge- Can't Complain (Snippet)


New music from the last male R&B group in existence, J.E. The beats interesting here, but that loop from "Diamond Girl" makes this just sound like a remix to that track. Great sound though, Ryan Leslie is a musical genius. Check out his youtube videos.

Ya Boy Kush 2009 Mixtape


Some hood muzik from Cali's own Ya Boy. My roommate stays bumpin "Bang Bang", so you probably should too, ya dig?

New KWxLV colorway


Yeah sorry bout posting some much shit bout these shoes. This colorway isn't as nice, at least to me. I think tanand brown should be left to boots. I'm sure everyone else will enjoy them though.

Trey Songz!!!


Yeah he's back on his instrumental grind! Nice thing about the kid is that his brief hiatus lasted about a month. He did some sick freestyles freestyles as usual. He sounds better than the original artists on most of the beats. I'm excited for his next studio album. I feel anticipation like an R&B Carter III! 


Trey Songz Feat Lil Wayne- Murder She Wrote Remix


I've been bumping this song for a good potion of a year without the wayne verse. The song is great, one of my favorites. Trey does it great. Even though it's short, Wayne adds a lil vocals to the bridge. Sounds good either way. To anyone who missed this when it dropped months ago, get it now!

R. Kelly Feat Akon- Makin Me


New track by the biggest fan of teen girls in R&B himself feat Mr. Konvict music. Decent track, sounds like a club track that will never make it to the club. Akon has a nice lil verse.

DJ Yoda Feat Tyga- Live Forever


Sick intro and instrumental on this one. Tyga rides the beat pretty nice too. He's definitely on the come up, even though it took him a lil while to find his flow. 

Bump J Feat John Legend- Nobody Eats But Me


Chi-city's own Bump J. With production by Kanye West it's always pretty good. Kanye put out a few tracks for him awhile ago but he's been off the map for a few years now. Last I heard he was arrested for a bank robbery back in November lol. Gotta make headlines somehow!

Kanye West x Louis Vuitton Sneaker


An official close-up pic of the highly anticipated Kanye LV sneaker, the "Louis Vuttion Don." This time shown in a tonal red colorway. I really enjoy the details such as the suede used around the bottom of the shoe, the Louis logos on the midsole and the minor patent leather bordering the tongue. I watched a video where Kanye explained that the shoe-pull bulging out of the back was actually to hold pants up so that one won't walk on their pant leg. How functional! A very clean shoe, I'd love to get my hands on these. Pic courtesy of NYTimes. Read the article here at The Moment Blog. Available in June at LV stores.

Gourmet Footwear Fall 2009 Preview


Caught a pic of a new brown leather pair of Gourmets. If you haven't followed Gourmets styles, most of their silhouettes resembled retro jordans. Check em out Here at commonwealth. It sounds like a crazy idea to resemble the jordans, but they are very clean looking shoes, and they use great materials such as canvas. This year, their shoes are going the more stylish, higher end fashion route. You can tell by the premium brown leather used on this shoe. I also noticed an interesting detail: the zipper goes all the way around the sockliner. I noticed the Louis Vuitton sneakers I posted yesterday also had a zipper. A possible trend starting?

Sean Kingston Feat Lil Wayne- I'm At War


A great collabo right here. All the sites are feelin' it. I can't listen unfortunately cuz I'm in statistics class and my teacher would get mad. Check it out and listen before I do! Production by J.R. Rotem!
Ok now I'm outta class and it sounds SICK! definitely don't miss this.

Get It Here!

Ne-Yo- Sweaty


Some interesting production by the King of auto-tune, T-Pain of course. Any beat compliments Ne-yo's singing abilities so it sounds smooth.
