Kenny Scharf Studio Visit


We have always been big fans of New York based pop artist Kenny Scharf. Just recently we showed you the Trek bike that the artist designed for Lance Armstrong. Today we get a look inside his studio, actually the space just below his studio. The artist created a colorful world of objects, paintings and more that create an environment similar to his paitings.

“On the floor below his studio he had created this insane space thats like walking into one of his sculptures.” - Kaws.

Suunto Elementum Collection


Sports watchmaker Suunto is going upscale and presents their Elementum Collection. Definitely a nice and much needed move from the brand. Their large scale watches were already a success in the lifestyle sector and now they are planning to take it over with this new collection.

The watches are still digital, but now come in premium metals, several colorways and a large choice of metal, plastic and leather straps.

Nike SB Dunk Hi “Wet Floor”

We present you one of the latest Nike SB Quickstrikes. The Dunk Hi “Wet Floor” comes in a refreshing yellow/white colorway. It features a black patent Swoosh and red details on the tags. The Dunk Hi is now available at Invincible.

Y-3 Fall/Winter 2009 Hemla


An interesting fusion of a boot and high top sneaker, the Hemla, comes as part of the Y-3 Fall/Winter 2009 Collection. The sneaker comes in two black versions, one clean leather version and one vintage leather version. Definitel some solid footwear for the colder season. Detailed images of the Y-3 Fall/Winter 2009 Hemla follow after the jump.

Nobody Famous Behind the Scenes

The making of "Don't act like I never told you." I would like to add my thoughts on this song. It's funny, because men and women experience lack of faith in their partner and than next thing you know one of them blows up. Of course I'm not saying stay with someone who is about to blow up and you're really not in love with them. I'm saying have faith in your partner if they are striving to become something great and it hasn't come to past yet. Because you don't want to end up saying, "Damn I don't missed up." Don't act like I never told you.

Welcome Home


Michael Vick has been release from prison and I know he's happy to get his life back on track. The only sad thing, people talk like this guy didn't serve his time and saying he shouldn't be allow back into the NFL. Michael Vick went to jail, which means he paid his debt to society then he should have the opportunity to play again. Some of these folks on other blogs are talking about Michael Vick like he's not human. It's a same the way humans treat humans. Michael Vick, was sorry for what he did and now it's time to move on. Welcome Home Michael Vick

WOW! Rihanna & Drake?! (makes out)

I don't know how true this is....but Rihanna getting it popping....I aint the one to judge.... but if she is im losing a little respect for her. She is wilding out...a new dude every night. She f#ck up the homie Chris Career now she looking for the next hot thing to mess up. I guess what Drake said was true on one of his tracks....(verse)"and you will see/pics of me on TMZ/giving her mouth to mouth." LOL!

Write up about it from the YBF at the bottom.

When Rihanna got back into NYC Monday after her Hawaiian getaway, she headed out to Lucky Strike with some friends. And word has it, rapper Drake was in her little posse and served as her make-out buddy all night:

Rihanna is officially over Chris Brown. The Barbadian beauty showed up with a group of friends Monday at Lucky Strike Lanes & Lounge on West 42nd Street, but spent most of the night locking lips with Canadian former child actor-turned-rapper Aubrey “Drake” Graham. “She was drinking whiskey and apple juice and making out with him all night,” says a spy. “They were really cute together.” Rihanna, who’s also been spending time in town with Katy Perry, peeled off with Drake at about midnight.

Hot damn. Every other day chick is allegedly gettin’ it poppin’ with a different dude. If this one is true, whichever chicks didn’t hate her before, damn sure hate her now. I guess he thinks she’s the f’in best.

Y-3 Fall/Winter 2009 Hayworth Mid II

Today we give you a look at the new Y-3 Fall/Winter 2009 Hayworth Mid II. The high top sneaker comes with a new ankle strap, a feature that one can find on pretty much any new high top release these days. It comes in red, blue and black, with a nice premium wrinkled leather upper. We like that the sneaker comes in tonal colorways.
