George Condo









The first picture is the artwork for Kanye West single "Power". These art pieces are sick in my opinion and kudos to Kanye for always expanding the hip hop genre anyway he can.

Eminem-Not Afraid




I like this video alot....I mean people dont understand why hes flying...I thought that was obvious. I like how the video sets him up reaching the edge and jumping off, and then learning to fly. Its like people push you to the edge where you take a leap of faith and jump off the edge and just when you think your going to hit rock bottom you start flying. Simple as that.

Stussy x BAPE


Stussy and Bape tend to recycle a lot of designs and the same is true for this summer 2010 collection which the two brands have joined forces on. In what appears to be another tribute to the California brands 30th anniversary, BAPE lend their hand in contributing a few t-shirts and mesh caps in their all too familiar camo print. Available at colette.

Two Lines I love collab...Im down.

Nike Mad Jibe Mid



These are fresh.

The World is Yours





When I was born I came out following my cousin, he was older had the girls and I thought he was the coolest dude ever to live. He used to Boss me around treat me bad,, make me cry, he was literally like my older brother. One day On the way to the beach we stopped at Popeyes Chicken right there on Lake across from the Thrift Store. It was around 12 in the afternoon and he was makin me mad and I finally got fed up and hit him in the nose and made his nose bleed. I felt so good lol, even tho he told me he was gonna beat me up like never before I had no fear I had the feeling of opposing the OPPOSITION. Ever since then I never ever followed the crowd or anyone for that matter. I learned to be a Leader after that. I used to want to be apart of the world, then I wanted to be controller of the world. Now I just want to change it. I dont know if it was listening to Nas Its your world, or Fashawns Hey Young World, or Commons Be or Its yours world, or Kanye West College Dropout or Graduation, or Jay-Z Blueprint 3,or J. Cole The Warm Up, or Lecrae Rebel Album. Maybe it was the people who forever teased me and called me weird or doubted me in anyway, maybe it was my Mom always telling me to prove people wrong, or my Dad not ever caring about my fight in life. Whenever I got this vision followed by a little ambition, and friends who are on the same page I am on, I have this Dream that is so farfetched I dont even know when God gave me this Idea but I know one day it will happen. Im trying to be apart of the 144,000 and still be great. If it never happens no one can say that I never tried, but I have so much faith I know one day it will come true. Through Christ all things are possible, and You can do anything you set your mind to. Go out and achive your dreams people.

Bouncing Cats Film Trailer

BOUNCING CATS film trailer from nabil elderkin on Vimeo.



“Bouncing Cats”, a film by Nabil Elderkin is an inspiring story of one man’s attempt to create a better life for the children of Uganda using the unlikely tool of hip-hop with a focus on b-boy culture and breakdancing. Abraham “Abramz” Tekya’s Breakdance Project Uganda (B.P.U.) is a project that could empower, rehabilitate and heal the community by teaching youth about b-boy culture. The film features narration by Common and interviews with Mos Def, Will-I-Am, and K’Naan.


I love this video it shows what positives Hip-Hop brings to people, many people are quick to judge Hip-Hop like its a bad thing and we cant listen to it, this proves those opinions false. Chrisitian or Secular Hip-Hop always has a positive no matter what it is which is why I listen to it, perhaps my favorite genre of music.
