fire burn that you try to learn

America's favorite soft drink and every Americans favorite French duo team up to make a special edition coke bottle. Its' called the Justice x SO ME Coca-Cola bottle. It's sold only at night clubs and colette and a bottle goes for $4.70 and the price of the package races from $56 to $67.12


Speaking of amazing DJs, Million $ Mano and Hollywood Holt tore it down at Streetwear Sunday. Streetwear Sundays is a weekly event thats now located at Hostel on Decatur and it gives an opportunity for those who are interested in fashion, style, music, art and culture to come together and start the week of right. It's a great place to network, see up-and-coming artists of all genres preform, dance and get FREE clothes and shoes. The show was amazing, Hollywood Holt and Million $ Mano showed New Orleans what is the future of hip-hop and how Chicago does a show. The night was filled with crowd surfing....yes crowd surfing at a hip-hop show, jumping, break dancing, juking and more crazy things. Mano laid down some Chicago tracks, current and oldschool hip-hop tracks, house tracks, and even some bounce music to please the local crowd. The front of the stage had a fiery energy that could not be contained on the stage, which resulting in bodies cruising in the air with the assistance of fellow music lovers. If a person walked into the venue, they would have thought they were in a gritty punk show, because not many hip-hop artists have the same skill to make a show so live. Hollywood Holt's set was opened by S.O.U.L. Fresh, which is a very cool duo who remind me a mashup of The Cool Kids and Matt & Kim. It rare to hear musicians sing and rap, but these guys pull it off with ease. Local talent also showed up to show they're support; Curren$y, Force Feed Radio, DJ Spin, Cypher, Lu Smith and G-Eazy were in the building. This night was also the release party for the spring/summer line of Sikkis clothing and I'm excited to see people around New Orleans wearing the freshest local brand out. You can purchase it at Traffic Boutique, Politics or Rukus 103
If people weren't please with the show, it only means that they weren't ready for it.
My partner in crime, STICKYFINGERZ came out and took mad photos. In New Orleans there isn't a lot party photographers who can cover the WHOLE scene like him, from Throwback to Streetwear Sundays to colleges' springfests. The dude is hella ill, he's like the New Orleans version of The Cobrasnake or Bronques of LastNightsParty. Checkout his photobucket until he finishes the creation of his amazing website.

Sorry to be biased but it seemes like chicago people run the world. On April 4th, the Air Yeezy's were released. These most well designed shoe's since the Jordan Spizike. These shoes have so many different elements that I think they're worth their price tag. People from around the world lined up to buy Kanye's new shows and people posted the shoes on ebay for as much as $2,000...so far three people are selling them for that price.

But for every real pair of Air Yeezys there is several fraudulant pairs with fake colors that appear to be exclusive.

Kid Cudi's song 'Day n Night' achieved a new level of popularity when it was remixed by Crookers. Well Crookers has taked a jab at Kid Cudi's song 'Embrace The Martian'.

Rick Ross needs to give up. First he was made that they dropped his verse on 'Swagger Like Us' not he's trying to jump on Kid Cudi's fame. I'm denying that Big Ross has made some jams, but I think he should lay off of Cudz work, he's not Little Boots. So, if you really want to waste memory space this is the mp3 for Rick Ross' version, or you can just play the last third of the song and wait for the humor to begin.
