Boi? Boi!!!

Freeway

Freeway took the extra step of documenting the scoopage in video form, watch the magic below:

I’m curious how many apple store employees recognized the long bearded rapper?

Because…. some people recognized “Freeway”:

Just Blaze linked up with Dan the Automator to pick up their iPads in the Bay area.

Oh, and Just personally reassured us, there were no lines in the books. (We predict Just bought 3 different iPads).

Bonus: Staple Design’s Jeff Staple got his, too.

Yesterday on Twitter, Sportaphile mentioned an amazing blog entry by Buffalo Bills running back Marshawn Lynch, where he is holding some “I’m ya daddi boi toy give a way” which includes “lots and lots of toyzzzzzzzz”.  Amazed by the content, I was browsing around the rest of the blog and noticed he had his own line of merchandise.  Then I saw it, a Beast Mode t-shirt…but it was sold out everywhere on the internets. However, during my search for it I came across a tidbit that mentioned it was for sale at Tops Supermarkets in Western New York.  In a matter of seconds I scrambled out of the house. Once I got to the local Tops, I saw it, a wire hanger was holding the medium sized holy grail amongst other Buffalo sports teams apparel on a really wobbly rack. As I paid at the self-checkout (I didn’t want people judging me for buying apparel at supermarket (who needs streetwear boutiques?), I contemplated acquiring a pair of Zubaz pants to match.. I quickly realized that would be going too far.

It should be noted: The Bills aren’t even my favorite team, but Marshawn has really impressed me this year (its hard to avoid Bills games around here).

Copped this a few days back while roaming the new Harris Teeter back in the ol’ DMV. Immediately this has become my non-alchoholic beverage of choice. From what I gather, this has been only launched in a few select markets in the States, after selling like hot cakes tea? in France (where it is called Pamplemousse Rose, ML is sooo bilinugal). Alas, I’m already suffering from withdrawl, Buffalo is not one of the lucky select markets (contain your shock, please).

Nothing is more hip hop than an organic nutrition bar. But I digress, I came across this Whole Berry Pro Bar at the local organic store (online thugs eat healthy). Let me just say that this is by far the best bar of this kind I’ve ever had. It blows away all of the various sorts of power bar/balance/cliff  I’ve had through out the years. Hell, its so good that it would get serious consideration when pitted versus a candybar.

Go buy some at http://theprobar.com/, amazon or your local spot.

Edit: because we are so gully around here we’ll let you know you can print a $1 coupon here.

From left to right: Quasimoto-”The Unseen”, Von Pea-”Grand Vonye”, Black Milk & Bishop Lamont’s “Caltroit”. I bought ‘em off the online FatBeats shop.

The official release of “Caltroit” is a little disappointing, package wise. I covered it here and was pumped for a proper booklet and everything. But nope, just a single double sided sheet with the track listing and cover. They took Bishop’s name off the CD because of some kind of label issue, so technically it’s a Black Milk project, at least in name.

Have any of you listened to these albums? I know Hangover_monkey is a Lord Quas fan…

Not all at once, but all fairly recently.  These will all be up on ebay on: never.

• Nike SB MF Doom Dunk High
• Nike SB Brut High
• Nike Classic SB Jeremy Fish

I didn’t actually cop this. Rather, my brother copped it for me. Its the life story of MF Grimm. The format is a comic book and is spans his whole career (up to American Hunger). Very interesting stuff. I didn’t even know dude was on Sesame Street?!

Seems like kind of a downer at the end, but Grimm seems positive. Read it. You’ll see.

Zoot was a very underrated saxophonist who never really got his due.

Jazz heads will remember Evans from Miles Davis’ classic Kind of Blue. Also a great jazz pianist in his own right.
