Diplo x Switch "Guns Don't Kill" Shirt

To celebrate their Major Lazer collaboration, Switch and Diplo are putting out this limited edition tee. This specific colorway is being given away at an upcoming gig, but they are planning on releasing a bunch in other colorways online soon. I'll keep you guys posted.

UNDRCWN x Mos Def

Came across this picture of Mos Def today. The shirt he's wearing will look familiar to any fans of Dead Prez, as it takes its inspiration from their album cover for Revolutionary but Gangster. Apparently Mos Def is teaming up with Undercrown to put out a line of clothes. From the looks of this shirt it has the chance to be like the Hip-Hop "Ed Hardy".

Since I've been getting back into my Hip-Hop roots a bit these days, heres a sick track featuring Mos Himself.

Nike SB Dunk x Quagmire

This absolutely absurd colorway by Nike SB, draws its influence from Family Guy's own Quagmire. This is not the first time Nike SB has gone this route, with the famous "Homer Simpsons" still being one of the most sought after Dunks on the market. I'm not the hugest fan of Family Guy, but these make for a hot sneaker, and I'm definitely a fan of the creative "named" colorways that Nike does. This shoes will soon be a collector's item so if you see them, be sure to pick them up.

Beats by Dre New Colorway

The god-producer himself, Dr. Dre teamed up with Monster to create the "Beats by Dre" sound canceling headphones. Not only do they look ill, but I can personally attest to their amazing sound quality. I tested them at an Apple Store, and you could hear a full range of crisp highs and thundering bass with the iPod only turned up half way. I consider myself a headphone snob, and I would definitely rank these towards the top of my list . They absolutely beast the Bose QC3, which are in the same price range.

This is an exclusive colorway done by Color Ware, a company that specializes in making all your gadgets look damn sexy. DJ's be warned though, its apparently not great to use sound-cancelling phones behind the decks. I might still have to drop $350 regardless.

Young Jeezy Circulation Video

Young Jeezy CIRCULATE (Full Video) from jeezy circulate on Vimeo.

The one good thing that has come out of the commercialization of Hip-Hop is the MAJOR cash flow these guys now have to create their art. From the multi-million dollar studios that they can utilize to make banging beats, to the major music videos like these, some good things have come out of hip-hop going mainstream. I can only hope that we start to see a bit more money being invested into Electro-House, because it could produce some amazing shit.

This video was done as part of the Belvedere IX campaign that I blogged about earlier. Its dopamine!
