Paris, Tokyo?

Now as everyone has probably seen Kanye West's third video for Flashing Lights has emerged on YouTube. Call me crazy but has anybody elsed notice that the first, and officially released version (below) has a distincly LA/ Vegas feel to it...


The second version (below) to show face had a real New York feel...


And the most recent one (below)definately has a London, or atleast English feel in the style of the video.

All are great videos, although I must say i still prefer the original with the New York one in close second, but it does beg the question: how many versions are still up the man's sleeve, and is he workin on a world tribe, so to speak, with this video?

London to Shaolin

This video is a bit old now, but I never got round to posting it before.

The rapper AC wearing my 'teeth in a glass' logo tee. As you can probably imagine we collaborated due to fact that we both go by the name AC, anyway for AC's 'get em' video which will be out in the near future I have prepared a tee especially for the song which will also be available to the public very soon.

Look out for that and look out for AC's new video 'new soul' coming soon.
peace

Breath of fresh air

Just stumbled across new NYC based brand 'Twon' and although there is only 4 tees as of yet, I love it, Twon is the first new brand I have seen in a long time to produce anything worth the time it takes to look at.


A ray of hope for the newer generation of streetwear.

University is for idiots...

Last september I was incredibly excited to be enrolling at Chelsea college of art and design, one sixth of the University of the Arts. A few months down the line I had become particularly nauseated by the fact that nearly everyone else there, were absolutely moronic rich kids who spent all their time purchasing class As on daddy's credit card and were at Chelsea solely for the purpose of keeping themselves busy. In march i dropped out completely, and don't regret it. To illustrate the agony i had to endure daily, her are some clips from 'Ruddy hell it's Harry and Paul'.



This is a greater insight into art school than any open day.

Ten sovereign please mate

I fuckin' love this video

The song however, isn't my thing so much
enjoy!

A clean slate (the 21st century edition)

A few months ago I began this blog with the best intentions, genuinly beleiving that I would update it regularly with ripping yarns and wonderful imagery. In the beggining I wasn't too great at getting around to it, plus I had no camera of my own which was limiting, and then my laptop decided it no longer wanted to upload pictures (or any kind of files for that matter) to the internet so the updates became few and far between to say the least.

A few days ago however, by laptop finally gave up the ghost so I now have a fresh start with a fully operational laptop and a camera all of my own, albeit sans weeks worth of important design work.

So now what I am trying to say, much like many of the guests on Jeremy Kyle, is that all I need is one more chance, and I can change, from now on I promise I will update this thing on the regs.

P.S. I'm stopping the whole hiphop quotes thing, that shit was corny as hell.

Guess who's back in the motherfuckin' house, half black, half white chick, I call her minnie mouse!

I just got back yesterday from Hong Kong. Unfortunately I left my camera on the plane, so I've got to wait a few days to collect it from Heathrow. But for now, I thought I would post some scans from MILK magazine. MILK is the fashion/ music/ art/ lifestyle bible for kids in Hong Kong, for some reason blogs haven't really caught on so much over there. Personally I think it's better that way, if it was up to me online shops and blogs would be entirely abolished (I know, I am a hypocrite in both regards) but cost, convenience and technology dictate that the aforementioned are here to stay.

While we were there we celebrated the nation's transition from the year of the pig, into the year of the rat/ mouse (4 nights in a row). New year, as you probably know, is a much bigger event to the Chinese, images and statues and merchandise of rats or mice were everywhere you looked, and a good few billion fire crackers must have got bus' over those few days, aswell as huge parades and firework displays.

Because of the whole rat and mouse theme, Disney cashed-in majorly with becoup de merchandise and Disney Land Hong Kong promotions. Here's the Mickey & Minnie themed photoshoot in MILK, directd by Yeung Chi Kin:



Nang.

Also MILK had a various other interesting pages, like the 6 page spread on Andreas Samuelsson:


Dude's style is crazy.

And then there was this fascinating display of some of Nike's 07 summer releases:


There was hella more worth blogging, but this is the highlights, I just wish now that I could read Cantonese because I'm sure I'm missing a lot by just looking at the pictures.

Pictures from HK will be up soon.
I'm going to bed, jet-lag is a motherfucker.

Robbing, shooting, killing, murder MURRRDERRR MURRRDERRRRRR!

Basicly it's like gone 4:30 and I'm starting to go a bit nuts, AKA forcing everyone I know to watch Homicide: Life on the street RIGHT NOW. Basicly my dad is a raw addict for this program, he's manage to do the research sufficient to record every single last episode of seven American-length series+ full length feature film grand finale, over the last few years. I think it is fair to say that it has rubbed off on me, and I'm glad, because I strongly believe that it is one of the most excellent/ underrated series to ever grace our screen, Frank Pembleton is my fuckin' hero and shouts to the rest of the character, hold tight G, Munch, Meldric, Mike, Falizone(sp?) and Bayliss, and of course Luther Mahoney and his marj.
Basicly if you don't know (as i strongly suspect you don't) get to know!!!
Here are a few clips i found on YouTube:

Meldric is a badman.

Frank my man, hold in there!

There is some real quality American television, peep NYPD Blue aswell, and ya'll all know the Motherfuckin Sopranos.
Shame all the good shows have come to an end, guess it's time for MTV Cribs.

Going underground, I'm going underground

Some new sketches have been sketched. Very rough for now, but still I felt they were worth sharing.

DON'T BITE.

P.S. Who remembers that awful spoof/cover of The Jam's Going Underground by those out of work doctors, called London Underground? I remember that being one of the first tunes people had screeching out of their mobiles...oh how I miss pre-2004 telecomunications.

It wasn't me


Sorry to the employees at Calvin Klein who had to draw for the warm water this morning. It wasn't me. All I know is that some real midnight marauding went down last night, and somehow 1500 stickers ended up on every vertical surface in central London, hold tight Bape and that swag shop that took Bond's spot, you got moved to by the crack'n'peel.
