The Raw Deal Pt. 9

The Old Prince. Shad.

I had to post this. An artist I recently discovered that I'd like to share with the unaware. This post is for the Hip Hop connoisseurs/believers that believe Hip Hop still thrives in the basements and back alleys of the world. Coming at you live from Ontario, Canada I give you... Shad. The Old Prince.

a second look.

dropping June sometime, the second installation of the "3 Feet High" collaborative effort between Kicks HI, DQM, HUF and Vans -- this time on the half cab model.

the shoes display the essential materials and patterns that were featured in the initial "3 Feet High" project on the chukka model. DQM utilizes the similar pattern, this time in a vivid blue color scheme, Kicks HI follows suit and goes with a perforated and suede base like their respective chukka and hometown favorites HUF stick to the all snake skin upper theme, this time going with red instead of black as seen on their 3 Feet High chukka shoe.

this means war.

fresh off the name change, Santigold has a show at The Warfield Theatre this Thursday. . .go!

Santigold always puts on a helluva show.

a bright light from a distant star.

elzhi (prod. by black milk) - deep.

if you do not already have this -- you NEED it.

trust us.

beam me up, scotty!

it was alarming how many trekkies walked out of this movie, but then again, it wasn't.

for those of you familiar with the star trek story line, you just might be upset with how the story kinda flip flops around the original star trek script -- for those of you who aren't and/or don't care, you'll enjoy this movie.

we did.

for the most part.

remember this?

Michael Jackson - Leave Me Alone.

such an amazing video for it's time -- it's my (m .) personal favorite michael jackson video ever.

which is a BOLD statement.

VIA HYPEBEAST.

An instant recognition of quality and heritage is often associated with Swiss watch-making as Snyper introduces an all new model for next month. Titled “The Snyper One”, the watch is perfect for fans of large faced watches as the steel case measures in at 44mm in a sleek, coated matte black PVD. Other noteworthy characteristics are best described below:

The bezel is fixed; two steel fixation bars are assembled at 8 and 10 o’clock allowing additional modules to be added to the case. The sapphire glass back is engraved with a target. The time-adjustment crown has the appearance of a sight instrument, while the chronograph function controls remind of two triggers. The watch sports a 7755 S caliber, an evolution of one of the most recognized Swiss watch movements to ever be produced. The movement also features blue screw details and of course the red Snyper signature. The rubber bracelet underlines the overall sporty and military inspired look of the watch.

The watch will release next month with a suggested retail price of $6,100 USD and limited to only 100 pieces globally. The watch unlike major watch-makers these days is constructed entirely in Switzerland.
