Goodbye Jordan 5`s

I needed to get rid of a few things that I don`t really use anymore that I can really hand over to someone and actually cry about it. So I started with my J`s just because my basketball days are over and well their JORDANS!. I`ll just play in my Adidas Clima Cool`s for now, anyway... I had a few emails from certain people, one girl came into lids but that was a no no... Its alright she was wack anyway haha. Then a couple moments later a quiet asian dude named Miles (see I told you man , I`d say your name)came in and bought them. Hes a cool kid, I told him to log onto Re-define, So if your reading this heres your SHINE homie!.

If any of you see him on the streets wearing those 5`s say WASSUP!.

WHATWORD!?

“There really would be no hip-hop as we know it today if it wasn’t for Def Jam. But you don’t get that respect without also being the label that single-handedly destroyed hip-hop."




I'm not the biggest when it comes to the whole hiphop culture. I'm a big fan of it but i'm not as deep as other cats out there in all honesty. I occasionally look through XXL and see what's up with "hip hop" today just because I need to catch up on whats around. Despite what I dislike about hiphop now. I wasn't there when the whole rap game evolutionized, so technically i'm not the one to judge. Heres a little something that I felt that was interesting to know. KRS 1 about DEFJAM

in the world of bikes.

i've never known any sport or activity (whatever the hell you wanna call it) to progress quite as fast as fixed gear riding. it's almost as if every few seconds the bar is being raised to a whole new level. take for example this guy

One gear No idea from chris akrigg on Vimeo.

i don't know if you've ever tried riding a fixed gear before but if you have you'd know that ish ain't easy. and thats his first time..



i guess what this video basically means is DON"T FREAKING MESS WITH THE OGs OF THE SPORT WE"LL EMBARRASS YOU..


and i was watching rocky today and just sort of realized isn't billy dee williams the most G dude ever..



don't drink and drive folks in facct don't drink at all

I love digging especially through all these music blogs. I was talking
to my homie http://eddsofar.wordpress.com and he told me about letsgogetit.blogspot.com
from what i've read its a big deal. I came upon one of my favorite music blogs
http://djuilson.blogspot.com. What i came upon was sadness.

"Today we sten up this flag, with the black color for the mourning in losing one of the most important partners in the universe of music blogs: LET’S GO GET IT.
Inadvertently, and maybe for personal motivations of one of this pseudo-artists of the new generation of music, the blog LET’S GO GET IT (headed by Hank) was shut off. "

"The work that our blogs do, is to spread culture to those who previously would not have access.The work that our blogs do, is to promote the new artists to emerge in a context that no longer recognizes barriers.The work that our blogs do, is to democratize access to art, hoping to create new generations aware of their role in the world."

Register your protests, and send the photos to mrafrofunky@gmail.com
We'll publish all in a new blog, which will be created to register the protest with the real participation of all of us.

Enough said.

all i gotta say is if you work in retail you should really check your til...

i'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaack

so i guess you're wondering at this point "wtf where the hell have you been and why haven't you been posting anything..."
my reason is quite simple. livin life. come on! give us a break would you really wanna be stuck behind your computer screen when the sky is blue and the sun is shining and "the livin is easy"

in any case guess what. it's september!

and i'm fully prepared to be a slave to your personal entertainment again.
i'll be the first to tell you a lot has changed since last time i've posted. i'd like to think both myself and earl have evolved a bit in the realm of life. so either you'll love it or hate it but things will be different from here on in regardless. and we'll be posting, regardless. you do your thing we'll do ours.

to start off i'd like to show you whats been going on these past months.

definitely a lot of riding went down. not as much as i'd like but a lot just the same.


having to be the bike mechanic to everyone sucks balls.

a new chapter of my life. the new job!


some no homo action.





then this happened


this pup got cuter then ever. i don't care what you say.. i say cute puppies are dope therefore picture of cute puppy go to some other blog if you don't like it sheesh.

spent my fair share of time loitering with this kid at this spot. "lids on robson earl speaking"

and this guy too

the day i got a free stool

tried that whole asian fade thing for a minute. decided it wasn't for me.

then the epic house party. and the epic collab of these two and one of the only picture i got of that night..


the wedgie marathon happened

caught chris being all gay and sentimental with the sun set and what not haha what a gay.


these are the times i will charish the most. just chillin with the bros

this guy here moved moved up to the big leagues! gonna be knockin them highschool girls dead. with one windmill he'll get 10 numbers and 15 facebook friend requests.. so lets see thats 10 windmills x 10 phonenumbers....


on one hand found some dope new secret beach spots, on the other looks like someone caught me being sentimental and gay with sunsets..

spits the best beach food ever.

whoever's idea it was to sell blueberries at commercial station is a genius. love that ish. devoured many a box.

made many a smoothie.

and also made some pretty good food along the way

brian moved into his new spot

had my fair share of adventures



the birthday bbq where everyone had no choice but to be vegetarian haha



this photo may suck to you but to me it says "memories"

you know what i just realized about seeing earl in that beater? it reminds me of this

do not leave your fire extinguishers out where people up to no good can get them..


urban duck sighting

i think this year i was telling myself "this year i'm gonna go hard! i wanna do well in this" but then didn't man up and let it slide...

but your boy earl.. he killed it!


and that concludes the photo portion of this blog.

well a lot has happened, a lot has changed. good, bad and everything in between. it was a great summer and i don't regret a thing.

i'll fill you in on the music portion later. i looked at this and realized how many photos are in this.. a bit of a sensory overload.
so expect to see part 2 in the near future.
