Favorite Tease This Week

Picture 14

Our homie SeventyMHZ hit us with this favorite tease. How dope is this tee? Where the wild things are was a staple in most people’s child hoods regardless of color or background. Bobby Fresh as usual kept it, well, extra fresh with this tee by combining a dope lyrics with a dope book practically everyone can relate too. I feel like this should sell out the stores. When you buy the tee, put in “bfresh4half” to get it half off.

Akronym was going bonkers just like the rest of the world over the Rosa Acosta video. I imagine Rosa’s punanni and bootyful cakes are ‘Ak’s favorite tease this week.

Hav’s favorite teases this week are Twon’s “Borough Presidents” Fall’09 line. Talk about a really fresh concept. I actually want one myself. Matter of fact I want them all! I could collect them like matchbox cars. These are definitely some of the freshest tee’s I’ve seen in a while. Only weird thing is, Nas is the only living rapper in the collection. Kind of Spooky like a slave, ain’t it?

And your highness Jonny Walker’s favorite tease this week was getting a chance to go to Disney World and it’s happening as we speak. I did a photoshoot at Landshark Stadium(Where the Miami Dolphins and Florida Marlins play) for one of my homies clothing line which was DOPE! I kicked it in Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony’s private box area were they spend time laughing about how much money they have and eating cocktail shrimp while watching brahlick young black men tackle each other on the grid iron. Sound like the life, huh? That photoshoot lead to an opportunity to go to Disney World and experience it in a way barely anyone gets to see. And did I mention I’ve never been? This should be dope. Look out for pictures of the trip on Flawless Hustle in the next couple weeks. Peace!

Favorite Tease This Week

Rihanna

Starting first off is one of my all time favorite teases which is Rhianna. Shorty is bad on so many levels right now. But her fashion and style game has been absolutely amazing. It’s like her and her stylist are just daring people to try what she’s doing because they know virtually no one can. Really, name someone else that can pull off what Rhianna is consistently doing right now. Ok, ok we all know she has questionable singing voice. But whatever. That singing shit was her foot in the door. But now that she’s in, she got her foot in the ass of all these mediocre “Celebrity” chicks on the daily. Just check her out. She probably one of the only real celebrities we have. Our fast food culture has diminished what it means to be truly special because everyone is “Special” and a “Celebrity” now because of a couple twits, lavatory “photoshoots”, some tattoos and maybe a mohawk or shaved head. But of course that isn’t the truth. Celebrities set precedents with calculated, but minimal effort mixed with a twist of talent to remain in the universe of eternity to set standards for future stars.

MosDef_spr09LookbookD22-1

My other tease, which I mentioned yesterday is the entire Mos Def collection($15-110). Undercrwn goes in regularly and really showed what their capable of with this collection. It’s so true to what Mos Def represents and is , I might say its probably one of the best clothing collections inspired by a musical artist in a while if not ever. Its easy to tell Mos Def had a big hand in this which is much appreciate because the end result pure and fresh. But could have easily been watered down with hints of Eurocentricity like most things in america and even hip hop at times. So Kudo’s to Mos Def and Undercrwn team of designers.

Khals Favorite tease this week is the “Imaletu Finish, But…” Tee by Retro apparel($12.00). Fucking hilarious. We all know what happened. Kanye was almost made to look worse than george bush when he did this shit. Jay Leno asked dude what his mom would have thought. Who the hell is he to ask that. I bet ‘ye wanted to slap the butt out of Leno’s chin when he asked him that. No one asked Joe Wilson what his mom thought when he embarrassingly interrupted president Obama during a presidential congressional speech concerning the health care system of our nation did they? It’s always some extra shit when black people do “Bad” things out of frustration. Like when Serena said she’d shove the ball up the tennis linemans throat. They literally tried to make it out like she said she wanted to kill her. Give me a break america. People are always telling “black” people they need to put racism and their past in america behind them. But how can we; or why would we, when we never put it in front of us? If you don’t learn and acknowledge history, your bound to repeat it. Isn’t that what the schools teach?But I digress…

Hav’s Favorite tease this week is The clown girls series by Addict done in collaboration with MITCH($26). Check out some of Mitch’s Bio:

Brought up in the Shires of the North of England, Mitch’s fascination with design and illustration was initiated by a love of comics and the Star Wars phenomenon. His first true influence was Ralph McQuarrie (Star Wars’ chief illustrator) and, much to the disapproval of various art teachers, he spent most of his early years in the realms of fantasy art and graffiti.

Concentrating on what he calls ‘hip hop surrealism’ during his design degree, Mitch spent his final degree year working at Swifty’s London studio. As Mitch was already a huge fan of Swifty’s work for Mo Wax and Straight No Chaser magazine, this was a logical progression and served as a valuable apprenticeship.

Dude is dope as you can see. Addict also has an interview with him which you can check out at their website.

Over and out…
