MUSIC - VIDEO

"Fuck How You Dance" (1970's version) by Swazy Baby. Slip-N-Slide...doing what they do best. GRIMY! Every now and then you need a track that brings out the inner most animal and allows you be straight up with yourself. The club is a meat market...get to the muthafu$kin point - feel me? I'm good, but for all you singles out there, lets be real. -Mr.-

THE FUTURE

videoJohn Kanzius stumbled upon an energy source that is clean, but most importantly in abundance, and might just be the future of fuel. Innovation is a beautiful thing. We are often provided with everything we will ever need in life, but are so preoccupied with the prototypes of our existence we miss the evolutionary step of progression. I still believe solar energy is the answer, but who says it can't work hand in hand with other clean alternatives. -Mr.-

CINEMATIC DOPE? HOPEFULLY

"The Last Air Bender" directed by M. Night Shyamalan. Based on the Nickelodeon animated series "Avatar: The Last Air Bender" created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko (which is one of the finest children's television programs ever created), is set for release in July of 2010. I first started watching the series with my son during season one, and was hooked instantly. Aang, the last air bender, is a reincarnated master of all four elements in a world divided into elemental clans, where bending (the ability to control and alter an elements form and structure) is practiced by gifted individuals from each clan. The Fire nation has waged war on the once peaceful planet, where all four elements co-existed in harmony, and the Avatar is the only one who can restore balance. BOOYAA! Hopefully M. Night Shyamalan calls upon his higher self and delivers another "Unbreakable" rather than another "The Village" and does this animated classic justice.

Word on the street/what may just ruin the whole thing...several characters, who are clearly not white, have been casted with white actors, which is upsetting since the entire series takes place in Asia and revolves entirely around Asian culture. It's 2009 people, do things right. If the role is Asian, hire Asian actors, and if the film takes place in Germany, don't hire English actors...I'm talking to you "The Boy In The Striped Pajamas". -Mr.-

KNOW YOUR PAST

"Soul Sacrifice" by Santana, Woodstock performance (1969). Brilliant! This is what talent, drugs, and an inspiring event can create. I'm throwing this up in celebration of the extended version of the Woodstock documentary released earlier this month, marking the 40th Anniversary of one of the world's greatest music festivals. Respect the art. -Mr.-

"World Tour" by Initium. Straight old school mob boss. Gold detailing on black, always welcome. Keep it simple stupid. Words to live by...most of the time. -Mr.-

FASHION

Quintin Co. fitted. I don't know much about Quintin other than they manufacture hats, and this will be their first official fitted. I guess they understand the crucial fact that first impressions last. Well done. -Mr.-

FASHION

"Azz Modigliani Icon Tee" by WeSC (artwork by Amedeo Modigliani). Clean, crisp, and classy. The print placement within the icon logo is top shelf. Using images to fill out your font instead of a solid color breaks the mold and redefines your limitations. If you're slick with your print selection your tee can match almost anything. Two thumbs up Brasil style. -Mr.-

FASHION


"Forum Mids" by Adidas Originals. I meant to post these awhile back...my bad. One of the illest kicks I've peeped in a long minute. Adidas are killing straps right now, redesigning and freaking a staple piece in slick new ways. The leather selection is beyond quality, and the design/cut is above par...PLANTAINS even...I'm talking still hanging off the tree - FRESH! Adidas holdin it down, straight bossin! -Mr.-
