Does Cassie ever take a bad picture? Well the answer to that rhetorical question is a resounding “No” —
It’s a shame that her claim to fame now – apart from being pretty flawless in the looks section – is being Puffy’s side thing.
Oh well – c’est la vie, n’est ce pa?

This guy’s publicist must have a whole lot of covetable contacts because ASAP ROCKY keeps scoring placements that regular rappers don’t usually get. It was a probably a good idea for him to enter the rap game leaning so heavily on fashion – because let’s be honest, his MC skills aren’t that tight.

Do you agree?

Can’t believe that it’s been 15 years since the greatest rapper of all time passed away – March 9th, 1997.
True Greatness Never Fades Away – BIG’s music is just as relevant today as it ever was.
We’ll Always Love BIG POPPA!

These rectangular-framed, zebra-print sunglasses are pretty effin’ pimp! You walk into a spot wearing these babies, and you can bet your Paul Smith leather I-phone case that you’ll be the topic of conversation for the next hour.
Available at Colette in France.

This Duffle is pure class – perfect for that quick weekend getaway. Thom Browne is really one of those designers slowly creating a very solid niche for himself in the fashion world. This bag is so fresh though – we want it NOW.

This joint just dropped from the sorta slept-on Emilio Rojas mixtape “Breaking Point” that dropped about a month ago. Of course, from the title alone, you have to know that this video shouldn’t be played around your 9-to-5 boss.
The kid is spitting pretty slick on this though!

The story of Jeremy Lin is such a feel good narrative. You have to be frozen inside and a really horrible person to not applaud the underdog-made-good story unfolding before our very eyes.

Can the Knicks emulate the NY Giants and go all the way? …
what do you guys think?

Tony-Award Winner Lemon Andersen’s “County of Kings” will host a special one-night only performance this Sunday, December 11th at El Museo Del Barrio (1230 5th Avenue). This event is presented by the Hip-Hop Theater Festival (www.hhtf.org).

County of Kings gives a tough, yet poignant biographical account of a good kid growing up in an unforgiving environment. Lemon, whose parents met at a methadone clinic and passed away from AIDS, served two prison sentences before he was 21 and won a Tony before he turned 30. His on-stage memoir touches on young love, the birth of hip-hop, slinging crack, ballet, stealing car parts, prison, and poetry as he takes the audience on an astonishing and surprising one-man journey toward self-discovery. Weaving hard-edged drama with urban poetry, the Brooklyn born and bred performer tells his coming-of-age story with profound honesty, compassion and humor.

WHAT: Special Holiday Performance, One Night Only, of County of Kings
WHO: Lemon Andersen
WHEN: 6pm Sunday, December 11
WHERE: El Museo Del Barrio
1230 5th Avenue, New York City, NY 10029-4496

Mighty Crown is a Japanese Dancehall Reggae crew that’s celebrating their 20th year Anniversary this year. We just love how the Japanese are able to immerse themselves in so many different cultures. Anyways, this crew has already done collabs with Stussy and Nike and we really like what they did with this Clae connection.

The grey wool upper really looks fresh to us, and the piping and red accents are added icing on the cake.
These will be released in December 2011.

An excellent blazer to wear with denim trousers, khakis, wool slacks and even colored jeans. It’s never a fussy piece and it offers the wearer all kinds of options; rock it over a ringer tee, a fitted dress shirt or even play around by throwing it over a lightweight cardigan.

just make sure the fit isn’t too-too tight, then you start to enter a realm of fashion and style that’s super questionable. No question, for Fall, this is one of the pieces you need to lock down as a wardrobe staple.
