Be -> Back before You Know It…

PEACE.

“Nobody truly know me,

Got me feeling so alone/

They wonder what’s on my mind,

What’s lingering in my dome/

I tell’em ain’t nothing wrong,

I deal with it on my own/

I deal wit it on my own..”

- J. Cole

P.S. I’m on hiatus mode…

Welcome Back Shyne.

Ralph Lauren Collection – The Nansen Boot

What more can you expect from the MOST astounding Ralph Lauren!?
A fine boot; rugged, but a la mode all in one token. Perfect for the unfortunately tumultuous New York winters we NY natives have grown accustom to; that surely lies ahead.
This boot features a rubber and textile upper with leather trim, lace-up front, fleece lining. It is waterproof with a 15″ shaft, 3/4″ heel, and rubber sole.

They are currently available here for the price of $299US.

Consequence – Whatever U Want feat. John Legend & Kanye West (Video)

NEW video by Consequence & the Grammy Family.

I think the visuals are pretty dope, but then again would you expect anything less from the great video director Hype Williams?
I’ve been a fan of Consequence since A Tribe Called Quest’s “Stressed Out”.
This is sure to be a sure hit, but then again with NY radio playing this new ‘jerk music’ who knows.
(Shakes head…)

P.S. I provided the download link to the actual song below as well.
Enjoy.

Pacific Division – Pac Div (Video)

Official Pac Div video for “Pac Div”.  I love this video as it is very much reminiscent of that early-mid 90s raw & lyrical Hip-Hop that I grew to indulge in.  I have been watching/listening to these dudes for a while now, but the proof is in the pudding. Checkout their latest mixtape below.

SBTG x G-Shock (I think I’m in LOVE…)

This year is Casio G-Shock’s 25th Anniversary, so sneaker customizer SBTG took time from his sneaker designing and turned his focus to the G-Shock DW-5600, a Casio staple. The watch is based on the simple black version and has screen printed designs with hints of SBTG and Royalfam trademarks. The watch is being given away at Royalfam , but all you need to do is sign up before August 1st. Good Luck.

Under The Mattress Money!

(Wooow…)
Talk about mattress money! I mean the Nike or Timbaland shoeboxes are still means of monetary storage if you’re like me and hate the way banks charge you to access your own money and charge a hidden fee with every blink of an eye.
