Boombox with iPod Cradle


Oh wow! This is nice. I kind of want one, but I'm broke. An iPod boombox? That's merging two time periods. I wonder why hasn't anyone else thought of this? I swear my granny had that black one when I was a kid. It had the little EQ bar like that and all. I think I may cop this. It's definitely on my Christmas list. I could really be the 2010 "Radio Raheem." I got this from Like Cool, so I'll let them tell you all it does and the specifics of it.
It is a iPod Boombox. The Lasonic i931($120) is a portable music system in true retro ghetto blaster style, you can play this Boombox via an iPod dock. "The i931 features playback of MP3s via an iPod dock, usb port, or SD/MMC card slot.

Table made out of 20,000 Legos


This is a kitchen island made of 20,000 lego bricks. I'm one of those people that doesn't want to grow up, so this is perfect for me. I don't know how much I'd want to come home looking at it everyday; but the thought of it seems purely entertaining. Don't you agree?
Seriously, is it me or did the designers of this make little designs in it out of boredom? If you look at the patterns on the table it seems more than coincidence that there is a line green Y on it. That's hilarious. I would have tried to make my name out of the legos. Not all together, but I'd have an inconspicuous J, A, and the Y in there somewhere.
Here are a few more pictures.

Bave Circus


I think this is a brilliant animation. It's actually beautiful, if you ask me. Like, I can't believe my computer monitor has shown such good quality. This looks like a blue-ray DVD. I about to invest in blue-ray after seeing this, no lie. The story is really cool, too. I mean, just pay attention to the detail that the animators did. The little boy's fingernails and all. It's just that dope. I was in awe while watching this. I definitely need some high definition stuff in my home. You don't know what you're missing until you get a small taste of it. So, please the music on my blog and watch this. The credits are after the jump.

Bedclothes by Vadim Cherniy


I think this is a dope idea for the new, hip, young couple. It's a little more bold for my taste and what I'd like for my home, but I really think this is nice. I would praise my friends with their live-in relationships if they had these comforters! I'd think they were so clever. I mean, who wouldn't? My question is, does that determine what side of bed you sleep on? 'Cause, I sleep on the side of the bed that the woman is on. do they come in reverse? I mean, that's if it determines the order. I'd much rather have a woman on top of me while I sleep. But, wouldn't it look like I was wearing a dress? That's so complicated. Too much thinking.
Oh, and for those of an alternative lifestyle, Vadim Cherniy didn't forget about you! Check out your bedclothes after the jump.

Available in IMAX 3D.


This is actually kind of dope. I don't think it's for any of you, though. I mean, not any of the people I personally know. I'm not sure how I'd feel about them wearing this. I'm convinced that it would take a lot to pull something like this off, you know? This is one of those things that's more about the attitude. Do you have the confidence and the presence to rock it? I mean, if you do, then by all means purchase it here. It's $70 bucks. If you do get it, send me a picture and I'll post it on Kicks and Chicks as an outfit feature. How dope would that be? Actually, this blog doesn't get a lot of traffic so who knows? Maybe someone will send it. Click that little email icon and send me the photo if you get it. I'm so serious.
Now, I made this post to really talk about this dress and the model wearing it. For my personal taste, the glasses with the dress is a little much; but I can understand the necessity of it for modeling the dress. This is something that people should either get the concept or not. I'd think a chick was extremely dope if she had this on in public and I caught the concept of it. I mean, that's if she's a fly chick, you know? As I already said, some people don't have the presence to pull it off.
Now what really would be dope is if the red and blue were see through.

Who wears a medium anyway?

I like Undrcrwn a lot, but I've never owned any. It's because it doesn't come in my size. This is why I need to be some famous person so I can have things made for me. It's tough being 6'8", I swear. Things are extremely short, especially in my arms and mid section. Full jackets look like three-quarter length. It's completely ridiculous. As well, I'm not the skinniest nail in the pizza box, so shit is all small. Everything comes in like M/L/XL in all of the doper clothing lines. You tell me what the hell kind of man wears a medium? No, what the hell kind of male actually fits a medium. I'm not talking about wearing it to fit the trend. I'll wait.
This shirt is really nice. I like the double message in it. Especially since I'm not a fan of the word "swag" and it's variations. Charlamagne Tha God said it best: "Swagger is just a way of calling another man sexy." I think that's absolutely true. Wait, wouldn't this shirt be a way of telling another man he isn't sexy? I'm confused. Regardless, I still think Undrcrwn is dope. I would definitely get this shirt if it came in big guy size. It just doesn't because they make all clothes to fit The New Boyz and their followers. Now hold up, I ain't hatin'. If you wear skinny jeans do you thing! I can honestly say that it's just not for me. I like a little room in my pants. I'm not talking about the baggy that we used to wear in the 90s. I'm talking about a considerable amount of breathing room. Is that too much to ask? I don't think so.
Do you know why I like LRG? Because they don't forget about the occasional big guy. They have a whole line catered to the over sized male. Sometimes my jeans are even too long. But, this isn't about that. I really like this scarf. I know, I know, LRG is played out right now- but I've been wearing it since forever and I won't stop now since it's gotten all popular. The colors of this scarf aren't all of that, but I have a shirt that would match it perfectly. I'm fond of it. It had to grow on me at first. I saw it while I was at my friend Brian's house window-shopping on his computer. Yea, I'm a window-shopper. So what? I'm not rich yet. As soon as the money comes in I'm going to buy out the whole mall. No, I won't stunt on anyone, that's just not my style. I'll let all of you admire my clothes.

Stunting shouldn't be a habit.


I can't stress it enough how much I can't stand people who "stunt." I feel like if you're fly if you wear it and let other people gawk over what you're wearing. You don't need to broadcast to the world what you have on and the prices of each item. That's just not fly.
I, personally, think it shows a low sense of class. The people who are easily impressed by materials are the people who have never had. Don't take that wrong either, because people can still appreciate the value of things even after you've grown used to it. What I'm saying is the people who have to brag are those who've never had. You don't have to show off what you have and how much you make. Let other people look and make some kind of assumption. When other people stop you and tell you how great your outfit looks, then you're fly. That's just my opinion.
Fashion is my second life if you haven't figured it out by now. It closely follows music, which is my first. I'm not into trends, though. I think I have a more classic look. I rarely look at my old pictures and say "Oh my God! What was I thinking when I had that on?" My clothes transcend time. Was that arrogant? I think so. Regardless, trends aren't for me. I'm definitely tired of dudes walking around in starter warm ups and high top fades. Do you, I guess; but there is a big difference in vintage and retro. Retro is the remake, vintage is authentic. Your look is definitely a remake.
