UNDFTD. SPRING 2010.
Although, I have no clothing from UNDFTD and I haven't seen a lot of there previous seasons, I am a really big fan. I discovered them about 6 months ago, I like there 'clean' and 'quality' over 'quantity' mentality. This season added color and a nice "cut and sew" button up. Everything looks really good. Im going to cop the Black Pullover Hoody.
Wiz Khalifa- This Plane. Official Music Video.
I was super stoked when I found this. Wiz Khalifa has been pretty under the radar lately, he is under the shadows of Cudi and Drake. But, I feel like he has a lot of potential. "This Plane" is off of "Deal Or No Deal", his breakthrough album. Probably, one of my favorite songs off the album.

I'm Just Embarrassed.
Every year, I cannot wait for NBA All-Star Weekend. Mainly, because I love to see the creativity in the Dunk Contest. Every Year, I would have a favorite, like Gerald Green, Andre Iguodala, Dwight Howard and Vince Carter. All those, were really entertaining years. Prior to those past winners, the NBA All-Star Committee were planning on getting rid of the Dunk Contest because the athletes weren't putting the creativity that is needed to entertain.
I have never been so disappointed in a Dunk Contest, usually I can find a characteristic to entertain me. But, this year the creativity was awful. Gerald Wallace being 6'7" and having a ridiculous 'reach' was dunking like he had cement shoes. Nate Robinson did his typical dunks that he did the previous years, he was just playing safe, I think he should just retire his dunks or think of something different. Shannon Brown was just boring... the only thing he did that was cool was... getting a previous Dunk Contest Winner(Kobe Bryant) to help him with the crowd. Demar Derozan should have won in my opinion, although he did do too much, he did 'soar' higher up than any contender.
Watch the video below, to see what I mean.

Fotography Fridays.
There are alot of people out there with a camera, people that shoot pictures at parties, people that think they are good at photography... then there are people that are photographers. Photography is an artform that can express your mood as a photographer and the mood of the people in your photos.
I met Jeremy Marucot a while back, when I was a young kid, shopping at Momentum. He is a great guy, and helped me get to where I want to be. Jeremy is an avid sneaker collector, and as he would say "over two hundy purr", he knows alot about shoes, clothing and ... photography.
Jeremy has been shooting photography for a while now. Learning as he goes, and a very good photo editor. Jeremy doesn't have a one type of photography that he "sticks" to, but he does have a distinct style that can be recognized as his. He did my grad photos last year, they turned out real good.
Here is some of Jeremy's work:

Tuesdays?... Thursdays... With W.I.L.T.
Okay, so I know watching doesn't start with an "L" but I have been watching these videos more then listening to music today.
Daichi Ito is Japanese, and (according to JJ) he works for Stussy. He has a very "unique" way to ask questions, he is very entertaining, some people think he is funny(me being one of these people). This being said, he doesn't ask the traditional questions, he rather focuses on what he thinks they are all about. Most of the time he is wrong, this is why he is so entertaining. Daichi is the "face" of Limited Edition TV, he focuses on interviewing previous and future collaborators of Nike Sportswear.
Watch these videos to see for yourself:
Tuesdays With W.I.L.T.
This past week I have been listening to the same old stuff, usually would just throw in "So Far Gone" or "The Warm Up". But, yesterday I was searching for something different, something that was fresh to my ear.
I threw on Donnis' "Diary Of An Atlanta Brave" Mixtape, and I was stoked. Every song, is a hit. Production supplied by, J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, Needlz and more. He also worked with Bun B, Colin Munroe, etc. Released the mixtape with 10 DEEP, after names like KiD CuDi, and Wale.
Download the Free Mixtape Here.
watch the trailer for the mixtape, below.
The Hundreds Johnson Low. Spring 2010.
The Hundreds really put out a "solid" line-up(no pun intended..) this spring. With alot of there "pieces being plain/clean, and colorful. I don't know if you have worn the Johnson model before?... but I have, I have 3 pair, right now they are in my weekly rotation, super comfortable, dress up or dress down you will look good either way. They give off a "sneaker" vibe, but in reality they are skate shoes.
Check out the new colorways in the low model, personally I like all of them.
If your looking for a shop that carries The Hundreds Footwear, and you live in Saskatchewan;
Check out Momentum on 8th Street.
Crooks&Castles. Spring 2010 LookBook.
I'm actually really surprised by Crooks&Castles this season, usually they aren't as clean or fashion oriented. All these "looks" look real good, my favorite is the one with the white 5 panel and navy jacket. Check out Momentum Marketplace for Crooks and Castles, word on the street is they just received a couple of boxes from them.
The Hundreds Magazine. Issue 2.
The Hundreds put out there first magazine in Fall 09, you can purchase it here. They basically focus on interviews, photography, and there next seasons look book. Well, they are at it again! and this time they are going big! They teamed up with 13TH Witness, featured in previous "Fotography Fridays". 13TH Witness has been doing really great things lately, working with faces like "Maestro Knows" to "Futura", crazy how people know people that know people...
Here are a couple of photos that 13TH took during The Hundreds Magazine Photoshoot:
Here are a couple of pieces expected for The Hundreds Spring 2010:
Expect to see more from this in the coming weeks.
