TIGHT

Recently i've been listening to some Jimi Hendrix and i didn't realize how sweet he can play that electrical guitar. I have mad love for this song when it was on the soundtrack of my favorite movie, White Men Can't Jump, Ryeone reminded me ... about this soundtrack, so ill , i gotta find it and cop it . Help anyone?



ps: Leave you a little something



Enjoy


Earl the Pearl will rock your world.
(sorry it was catchy)

I will always be a big fan of Public enemy, speaking of fight the power it reminds me of spike lees do the right thing, this movie is one of those movies i can't stop watching. I gotta cop myself a copy!

life lessons part 3

Life lesson one: For downtown drivers, pls look in your review mirror before opening your door or a innocent young man like me will end up damaging it and damaging myself. Close call



Life lesson two: I need a bike lock ASAP... or else



Life lesson tres: Lookbook girls are a tease! they have mad style and some are mad fine, its just theres no way of getting to them. (if you don't know what lookbook.nu is its a site to post your own fashion sense basically)

WHAT?!

I know Most of the fixie riders in Vancouver/burnaby/ Surrey know about this and i know i'm late! and no i'm not posting this because its hella hype! but i'm posting this because... i love the colorway ... the Gold and Black colorway joint its like Shaq and Kobe at the allstar game... but some of you might be wondering why i'm posting about a fixie ... and i don't even ride one?, isn't RYEONE suppose to be doing this type of post? guess what .. i've been dodging traffic the last few days with the bike that is soon be officially mine! thanks to the VuuDoo, yes you heard it... Earl The Pearl is a fixie bike owner! . Teal Miele frame with a white deep v in the back and drop bars in the front and a pussy front brake because i can't ride that great yet. haha

Thanks to ryeone and dalezees for the inspiration and Vuudoo for the bike!

PICS UP SOON! ( seriously i'm not going to procrastinate)

jeff hamada sneaker release party recap featuring dale.

the jeff hamada-converse-one-hund(red)-livestock-release-party *inhale* was on thursday night. me an the pearl an dale went to show some love, check out the party, and sip a beer i suppose. it was pretty dooope seeing the buzz over this shoe and seeing jeff sign autographs and take pictures with mooks like us. if anybody deserves to be fussed over it's jeff! pay attention kids see hard work does pay off!

BTW photos takin by both your boys ryeone and easy earl. mostly earl though


re-define dope x booooooom??? hahaha


i think at some point i saw everyone from this weird...
plus the usuals man if you think cyrus is loud in normal life and if you think hes loud with a megaphone you should hear that guy when hes had a beer or two....

i don't know why that photos blurry! anyways later in the night he tried to stick a bunch of stickers on my back secretly... i think he must have got me with the first couple but then after the like 3rd i felt it and was like oh man... hes putting stickers on my back isn't he..... so i nonchalantly walked over to a mirror and to my horror found 5 to 6 stickers on my back! but whatever apparently i won him 10 dollars in a bet..

it started off kinda empty around 8:30 ish

but then later on it was packed!


i hung out with these guys

my riding buddies :)


brian's got cute little baby hands it's almost like a little girl reached up and smacked him in the face.

earl wanted pictures of my new starter cap?

jeff explaining how to make booooooom shirts hahahahahaha


ian pretending to work when hes actually checking facebook.. hahaha jp

earl asking please sir i want some more?

me doing my shy guy pose. or checking text messages which ever.

and now for a succession of photos i call the adventures of dale.

he liked the sneakers. but was afraid to spend too much money

we hung out

he had fun

my camera stunned him





all in all it was a good time. the ride over with my two mustache friends, chilling, talking about bikes, seeing a bunch of people. and free beverages you can't beat that! the night would have been better had i bought the shoes. alas this wallet is bone dry.. i can't wait for more night rides!!! and summer!! anyways yea big ups to jeff and livestock for putting on this rad event!!!

and lets not forget it was for a good cause. i completely stand behind the product(red) business plan

and the shoes are still on sale i believe as well as the jeff hamada x livestock t shirt. definitely go check them out.

rye0ne given you whats good.
p.s i'm going to be so late for work for this!!i better see a billion comments when i come back!

when life gives you lemons ... say fuck the lemons and just bail

For some reason i'm really digging the chorus



This song defines how my days are.

and the other day i was actually going through a random cd collection thats been collecting dust. I came by one of my parents old Digable Planet Cd ( i really don't know why they have it) which was called Reachin ( A new Refutation of time and space) which released sept 27th of 93.... i was only 3 years old. dang haha but i took a listen and i was immediately intrigued ... I think most of you came across this song sometime in your lifetime.... Where i'm from- Digable planets

ENJOY




ps: Jeffs Release party was dope... we'll keep you informed ASAP

back alleys of gastown with rye. I shot with Ryeones D40- 18-55mm , Our bag of Loot is basically what this was , 4 shirts.. and cheap cheap starters :)



Re-Define Dope X Livestock...
Its Legit, we asked cyrus what we need to do to keep it up

should be taken and life gives you credit. We got lucky then...

V for VALENTINE

today is the day for all you young cats to be in love.. don't kill the buzz and say it's all a marketing scheme made by hallmark. in todays world of war and crisis we could all use a little more love in our day. guys treat your girl like a queen, and girls show some love for your man.. we all know dudes don't get any day where we're showered with gifts and flowers and dinner.
again in honor of the little fat kid flying around busting caps in your ass and mine.

the valentines mix by none other then wundrkut

i was skeptical at first. but i was a fool! of course anything by dr kutztable himself has to be gold.. (thank you edd for putting me on to this!!)

last night was denisense.blogspot.com/'s birthday party at gossip. that ish went off!! argh! i wish my bromie earl was there again! hurry up and become 19 earl! but yea i gotta give a shouts to denise for inviting me to by far my best club experience yet! and james for paying my cab fare home!!! shoot i feel bad that she lost her wallet...hopefully it's not too much trouble to get the i.d replaced..

well i think it's time to take a break from that scene i'm plum broke.. clubs are costly! holEEEEE! i could buy an entire meal for what a beer costs..



i remember singing this back when i was one of those young lovebirds. treat em right boys.


and now to make you laugh spotted at booooooom


rye143 happy valentines ya sappy bunch.

a lot going down today. a bunch of couples making last minute reservations and ordering flowers. . sigh.
but yo! any justice fans in the house?!!! then check THIS out!

spotted here your boys justice pretending to be real dj's with the rca cord not even plugged in... and i think he put it best when he said

"Hope I didn’t shatter some hipsters illusion that these guys were ill DJs or something"

hahahahahaha suckas.

this is whats on repeat in my mind


but hey the show must go on! tomorrow is a big day for us! so stay tunned for that post.

jeff hamada x livestock via hypebeast ugh...

theres a lot of black and white in this post so i thought i'd spice it up and hurt your eyeballs :)
i gotta say i'm a bit disappointed that i'm finding out this information through hypebeast jeff. and not through you!
but oh well it's been a minute since i've seen you so i guess it's kinda my fault. anyways earl was supposed to blog tonight but i guess he got .............

so for Livestock’s ongoing artist series collection they're doing a colab with the man the myth the legend and hes not bad at halo 2. jeff hamada!!! i personally like these way better then the last batch with pendleton but thats just my opinion it's not that pendleton's were bad these are just way better ...



these will be available the same day as the release party on the 19th

more later keep checkin

R.I.P j dilla

it's always sad to think of j dilla passing. so young and full of potential. and just like my homeboy brian said it's sad that producing wasn't really as big as it is these days. that man never got the full respect he deserved. it would have been his 35th birthday on the 7th and today it's been 3 years since he left us.


Dilla a.k.a Jay Dee - My Tribute 2009 from Andy Brown on Vimeo.

to say j dilla changed perceptions through music is an understatement ...


i'll be straight up this is how i found out about j dilla. i didn't even know who he was until he died and trixie posted his picture up on xanga and said r.i.p j dilla so i googled that ish. and i was like "YOOO!! you made my favorite music.. NOO! you're too young!!"


listen to him spin whats pretty much a standard of today


r.i.p Jay Dee

James Dewitt Yancey (February 7, 1974 – February 10, 2006)

wanna vibe out to some of these chill as f**k beats then here you go. now go tell a friend about our blog! go run now !

makin waves

this is going to be a big couple of weeks if you don't know already. lots stuff is goin down.
for 0ne don't forget the release party for these jems here


it's like i said before if you're gonna buy new sneakers why not "do the right thing" at the same time nawmean?

number tw0 MIGHTY 4 damn...

3 day long battle in seattle and it's FREE. not much in life is free these days so you gotta be thankful when one of the biggest BADess battles of them all is free. i dunno i still gotta get my greyhound ticket. please pray for me that my head doesn't get chopped off. . .

not to mention some crazy hallmark day that starts with a V and ends with alentines day.. i haven't been alone on valentines day for 4 years. wow could it get anymore emo then that...
in honor of that little fat kid flying around and busting caps in young lover's hearts


and then theres this kid... got the whole game figured out at the tender age of 9...




rye0ne i still can't believe she was jockin my style.. i get it from one of my heros free
