Uffie Ft.Pharrell ADD SUV

Here's I guess the first official Video/single off of Uffie's debut album on Busy P's Ed Banger label that I thought should of been out like 3yrs ago when they released "Pop Tha Glock" but hey what do I know lol...and here's a lil dose of that Parisian Electro with the help of The Neptunes Pharrell Willaims...Uffie is cool for what she does if you're into minimal European electro,but now she has that God awful Kesha chick that totally jacked her style to knock off the radar,which should be easy lmao!!!

The "Warhol & Friends" project coming soon.....

Well folks it's been a long time since I actually did a post myself and that's because we've had a lot brewing over the last couple of months,finishing up Byss's album,securing placements etc....and I would like to announce that I will be doing my first fashion/art project titled "Warhol & Friends". As most people know that are close to me I am an artist myself at the end of the day even went to the Moore College Of Art back in the day for the gifted artist program back when boys were allowed to go there lmao,but certain artist stood out to me like Picasso,Bearden & Warhol as game changers. So with that being said I'm going to do a special limited edition line titled "Warhol & Friends" consisting of 6 rare images of Andy Warhol photographing some of history's & pop cultures biggest assets. You can expect a tee-shirt line accompanied with tote bag's in a limited run. There will both be male & female sizes available and expect a late August release that will be accompanied with a release event. So here's a sneak peak of one of the images selected for the project stay tuned.....

6/9/10 Sergio Mendes Legend Album Listening Party

This Wednesday our extended Family over at Uristocrat.com in conjuction with the Walnut Room will be having the official listening party for Brazilian Bossa Nova legend Sergio Mendes for his appropriately titled album "Legend".

Bape Crape's!!!!!

I think these are one of my favorite Bape designs and I dig the new colorways and they're available at Bape retailers in the US/Japan as of June 2010.

R.I.P Sabina......

I just wanted to take the time out to touch on a tragic event that happened in our City last Wednesday morning. The lovely and young Sabina Rose O'Donell was brutally beaten,raped & strangled last Wednesday and her life was cut short at only 21. I wasn't as close to Sabina as other's are portraying but she was the sweetest girl you would ever wanna know always spoke and kept a smile on her face. The nightlife community or "the scene" which ever you prefer to call it has put together The Sabina Rose O'Donell Fund to make sure that she has a proper burial and to add to the $25K reward to catch her killer. All I can say is that this tragedy is pointless,to just take an innocent life like that is just pure evil in the flesh and her killer will be caught...But we will remember Sabina as the young,beautiful model/dancing machine that she was and we'll keep your spirit near our hearts and may you shine down on all of us from heaven above...may you rest in peace my friend.
