Puma turns 60...

Puma recently turned 60, and celebrated it's birthday in style. The "I am 60" anniversary event was held at The Great American Music Hall in San Fransisco and featured DJ Steve Aoki as well as performances by Lady GaGa.

Good to see that one of my favorite brands still carry a strong following.

JB...What The Hell?!

While browsing thru the JordanBrand section of Niketalk, I spotted some comparison pics that a NTer posted showing both his 2001 pair of Air Jordan Black/Red 11s & a 2008 CDP pair of Black/Red 11s.

Since I own the 2001s already (worn only twice) I was curious to see the differences. Thou almost all the pics were nearly identical...this one just stood out to me...actually it pissed me off.

2001s on top...CDP on bottom. Can U spot what's different?












A BACKWARDS ASS JUMPMAN SIGN ON THE LEFT SHOE OF THE CDP?!


This is completely unacceptible! You mean to tell me that this multi-billion dollar company can't even produce a shoe with both jordan signs right anymore? How the fuck did this happen?! Did their under-paid workers mess up one shoe...then said fuck it, we're already behind schedule. Just keep making them, maybe no one will notice. And I'm suppose to pay $310 for this shit?! I'm the first one to not care too much about quality issues on shoes...but gotdamn!
I mean...you'll look ok wearing them with jeans, with the sign covered. But in the summertime with shorts on, those are "bootleg city". You expect some shit like this from Tony on the corner...but from JordanBrand itself?! Guess you can't pop your tongue with these babies on.




"WRONG WAY MIKE! WRONG WAY!"

Man...I'm sooo glad I got my 2001s still fresh. EZ PASS!

Sign Of The Times...

N.E.R.D. has release another video off their stellar album Seeing Sounds, and once again they do not dissapoint. "Sooner or Later", directed by the Malloy brothers, the video reflects on the dire state of the U.S. economy in these times. Pharrell, Shay, & Chad do what they do best...laying down that classic rock inspired track during events following the Wall Street stock market crash. Also peep the guest appearance by Rod Drydek.

Peep the vid here.

I Go Hard...

Arrogance is thinking highly of one-self no matter what. No matter if one is wrong, no matter if one looks foolish, no matter if others are offended, no matter period!

I have come to the conclusion that Kanye Tuda is the most arrogant individual on this planet. Mr. West has always been considered arrogant, but with this new album 808 and HeartBreak, he has reached the level of arrogance never traversed before by any man.

Only the most arrogant S.O.B. ever would stray from his successful lyrical roots to drop an entire album sounding like the lost episode of Alvin & the mother fuckin' Chipmunks. Then to make matters worse...Yeezy doesn't even take mercy on his audience at live shows by lip syncing his shit.

Let me be the first to state this.......KANYE WEST CAN'T MOTHER FUCKIN' SING!!!!!!

Yet he still gets up on stage and belts out an endless supply of NASTY ASS NOTES in an attempt to sing knowing damn well that he can't. Concluding his performance with 40 seconds of leg twitching & shuckin' and jivin' doesn't change that fact!!!

Let me make this clear folks, Kanye KNOWS perfectly well that he sounds like "cooked" shit, but he could care less. He does what he wants...how he wants. And at the end of the day, there is but two thoughts in his arrogant mind. YOU BITCHES BETTA' GO BUY MY ALBUM & THEM BITCHES BETTA' GET MY GRAMMY READY!!!





"You Can't Tell Me Nothing!" He wasn't lying....

Crew's Up...

I've been a fan of Chinese streetwear brand SUBCREW for a minute now. Their line have always remained "street" but with a unique edge to it. Let's just say...I could see myself easily wearing this shit.

There latest drop is slew of hats & tees commemorating China's record medal showing in the 2008 Summer Olympic Games. This pack titled "We Are The Champions" will be dropping at all participating Subcrew stores. Peep the photos of the drop courtesy of Yoko Magazine.

To All My B' More Heads....

We are starting a petition because we are tired of the bullshit. Tired of the abundance of wack colorways. Tired of the 3M. Tired of the leather straps. Just plain tired of it all.

Nike, Bring back the hight-top Air Force 1! And bring it back in it's classic form, nylon strap included!!!!

Watch the vids of part 1 & 2. And leave you comments on youtube.

Spread the word, B' More is still the home of the air!

More In4mation...

Here's a lil update. The Vans x In4mation Half Cabs that everyone is dying to obtain has been temporarily pushed back from it's initial release date 12/12/08.

No new news have been provided, but to all those fortunate enough to get on the OTWS mailing list, stand by & keep that money (retail is $110) available. These will be dropping shortly, and you don't want to be caught slippin'. Remember the so-called Active x Taka push back? This could happen again.

For all those not in the know...peep the pics.Tear-away denim, houndstooth & gum sole = one bad ass Half Cab.

Gotta be the Shoes...

The Shoe-Seum event held this past Saturday in Philly was a success. Big thanx goes out to Dizzy of Get-Dizzy.com & VJ of W2 Marketing Group for setting everything up. The imperfect winter weather didn't stop guys & gals from coming thru, showing their support, and of course...copping some Kicks.

Check the pics...

The Beltway Beatdown...

Baltimore Ravens vs. Washington Redskins.

The Battle Of The Beltway wasn't much of a battle, huh?

24 - 10

I wish we could do this every year...

Ayo...Do Ray-Ray & the boys look good in black, or what?








Finally, kudos to ED REED...There hasn't been another player in the NFL to have his impact on the game since "Prime Time" Deion Sanders.

Ayo...

Recently picked up a fresh pair of B'More's shoe of choice for the winter. Actually we still rock these joints all year round. But similiar to how the Pigrims stole the Indian's land...some uptown roamer is steady trying to lay claim to something that ain't new. Yes, I'm talking about THE NIKE BOOT.





No hate Wale, but come to any hood in B'More & see what it do. Nike Boots on, Err Day All Day!

Btw...peep this vid my homies HarmCity, King, & I shot a while back...debating this subject.
