Hello Childish Gambino!

Hello everyone! The new guy making his first post!

If you haven't heard of him, then you should probably start listening. Childish Gambino delivers powerful lyrics from his own life, peppered with pop culture references. He just released his first commercial album "Camp" on Nov. 15, and here's one of those songs:



His other albums...they are free! Childish Gambino's real name is Donald Glover, and he also stars in the comedy TV show "Community". Another song I particularly enjoy is "Freaks and Geeks". Enjoy!

The Hobbit Trailer


Peter Jackson is at it again, adapting another popular J.R.R. Tolkien book, this time it is The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. Judging from the trailer it should match the hype.

Some Shirt Concepts

Here are some designs we're working on.  Let us know your thoughts.  Sound off.

Game (feat.) Wolf Haley and Lil' Wayne - Martians vs. Goblins

Game released the official video for Martians vs. Goblins off of The R.E.D. Album. Fans of Lil' Wayne will be disappointed with no cameo from the YM leader. Can honestly say one of the best music videos I have seen in awhile. Great use of special effects, they didn't go overboard but used them to their advantage. Only two disappointments were the lack of attention to the "intestine shoelaces" on Game's "Wolf Grey" Jordan's. Secondly, I expected a little more unusualness from Tyler's verse.  Some people might say he wasn't donning his usual Supreme hat, think again he was wearing the new "CNN" snapback from the brand. Enjoy the show.

Mr. Brainwash "Art Show 2011"


If you have ever seen Exit Through the Gift Shop, Banksy's documentary film, then you will remember the interesting and sometimes annoying personality of MBW, or Mr. Brainwash. Keeping with the same theme of his art show in the film, he plans to go big, judging from photos of his "Art Show 2011". The show is in LA, one disadvantage of calling the east coast home. But certainly check out the pictures provided by Hypebeast.

The 30 Most Influential Skaters of All Time









Transworld Skateboarding is celebrating its 30th anniversary this week and in honor of the monumental milestone, they released their list of the 30 most influential skaters of all time. I can't lie, I was already a little skeptical of the list just cause they said "personal", which basically means "biased". But upon clicking the link I saw my personal favorite skater and fellow street wear clothing designer (Primitive), P-Rod. It was definitely hard to swallow. Although I will cut them a little slack cause ranking guys like Danny Way, Koston, Tony Hawk, Rodney Mullen etc. is certainly very hard.

Taking A Moment for SOPA


By now, you have undoubtedly heard about the Stop Online Piracy Act, or SOPA for short.  If not, allow me to summarize: it is complete hogwash.  The House of Representatives have the bill proposed to them, which would effectively destroy the internet as we know it.  Any site with copyrighted material, as well as sites that even provide links to said material, face the imminent possibility of being disbanded for their "infractions." The likes of YouTube, Google, Reddit, 4Chan, Digg (the list goes on) would have their IPs banned and their companies dismantled.  Even Blogger, the very site we operate our company from faces the chance of censorship due to the greed of men and women who are already worth millions of dollars.

However, there is some temporary good news: as of today, voting on the bill has been postponed until 2012 due to "House scheduling." They do not reference the more than 25,000 signatures received in two days from an online petition, staged on Whitehouse.gov.  I myself am proud to say I was the 31,780th person to sign the petition.  Folks, this is a serious issue with some possibly serious consequences, and should not be taken lightly.  The very freedoms our countrymen have fought and died for over the years are being tarnished and tainted with little regard for care and worry.

Please, take the time to read and sign the petition.  It literally takes five minutes of your time.  Help out yourself and your people by taking a stand against SOPA.  Thank you.
