AF1 New Website

 

Despite the Air Force 1 turning over the proverbial mic to the Dunk this year, the Air Force 1 is surely starting to gain some more steam with the launch of 1World website. The Nike 1World project will source 18 of the world’s most creative and innovative personalities in the realm of sport, music, art and design as they are each given an Air Force 1 as their design playground. The 18 styles will slowly trickle out over the next 8 months with the first batch including the Pedro Winter AF1 Low, Gore-Tex AF1 Low and Rasheed Wallace AF1 High. With each subsequent release, look for an in-depth profile of the collaborator and the inspirations behind their design.

CLIPSE: FASTLIFE

Following the release of their critical success, but ultimately commercial failure Hell Hath No Fury, Clipse have reconsidered the direction of their music. They sounded flawless over Pharrell’s spaced out beats, but the unorthodox nature of the album’s sound was not received well by the masses. So, in a move that many people might scoff at, Clipse have been working with Scott Storch on the latest Re-Up Gang record. No one can deny Scott’s ability to produce bona-fide hits, but you have to wonder if his in your face style can translate to Clipse’s understated flow. Well, wonder no more because “Fast Life” has been leaked and it’s apparently the lead single off the forthcoming Re-Up Gang record. The track starts out with epic swirling synths that drops into a catchy hand clap beat. Malice and Pusha T do damage and seem comfortable on the clean sounding production. Maybe Clipse were always built for the big times, but only time will tell. The Re-Up gang will be releasing their LP some time this year, so stay tuned for more leaks

” HEART AND SOLE” AIR ZOOM CRUSH

The action sports 6.0 collection from Nike has looked to punk band Alkaline Trio to embody the brand’s spirit in this latest Air Zoom Cush collaboration titled “Heart and Soul”. The stylings of the new Dunk-esque Cush relate to the band’s history through the use of unique details and materials. Among the highlights are the Chicago Bulls inspired black/red colorway, in homage to Alkaline Trio’s Chicago roots. Furthermore, reflective accents and bike-tread graphics are a tribute to Alkaline Trio and their meeting as respective bike messengers. The all synthetic upper was chosen to reflect the vegetarian nature of each band member. In the midst of a tour to support their latest album, Agony and Irony, the shoes will see their initial release with a messenger bag at Jacks Retail Shop (Huntington Beach) on June 27th, with a nationwide rollout on July 11th.

Lil Wayne Sells a Milli in a Week

New Orleans MC and codeine enthusiast, Lil Wayne has sold over a million copies (1,005,545 to be exact) of his highly anticipated album “The Carter III” in only one week. The difficult feat, especially in the current download age, puts Wayne in the company of an elite few and solidifies his status as the most popular MC alive. The news should come to no surprise to anyone who has kept up with Wayne’s progress, his relentless worth ethic, the constant presence on the mix tape circuit and his penchant for taking other rappers beats and completely making them his own. Many other MCs (Jay-z, Fabolous, LL Cool J, Gillie, Corey Gunz etc…) have done just that with the beat for Wayne’s street single “A Millie”. Wayne snatches the beat back and reclaims it as his own as he uses it as a platform to thank his fans for going out to buy his album. The driving minimalist beat lays down the perfect canvas for Wayne to drop his schizophrenic intoxicated flow over.

Who knew it would take the Skytops to successfully bridge the gap between slick-spitting rappers like Mickey Factz and lezzies on the prowl like Samantha Ronson? This latest colorway of Muska’s signature shoe is off the TUF line — a collection that features skate kicks that are built to last longer than usual. Look for the TUF site to launch June 15 and then these Skytops and other durable in-line models to release shortly after.
