Wolverine 1000 Year Addison Boots

These are sooo fly.

Watch out boys, she'll chew you up...

Fact:  I love Hall & Oates way more than someone who wasn't alive to have a John Oates-style jheri curl mullet and consider it a solid style decision ever should.

...And check out that sweet 'stache.


Every time I hear "Maneater", my day immediately gets a few hundred times better.  That's why I was beyond excited when I found out about Interpreting the Masters Volume 1: A Tribute To Daryl Hall and John Oates, a cover album by The Bird and the Bee that gives an extra touch of charm to the band's already fantastic catalog.  Listen:

 The Bird and The Bee - I Can't Go For That by FelipeLuno

And for good measure, watch this.  I dare you to try not clapping along by the time the second chorus comes around.  Classic.

G.O.O.D. Fridays



For those of you who aren't aware, Kanye West has announced that he will release a new song from either himself or someone else on his label (which includes the likes of Jay-Z) from his Twitter account (@kanyewest) every Friday until Christmas.

The plot thickens!

Along with today's track, another song featuring Jay-Z, Kanye announced that he and Jay are releasing a 5 track album together. Ba-na-nas.

Here's today's track, Kanye West's "Monster" featuring Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj, and (no bullshit) Bon Iver.

Download.

ChloĆ© Children’s Wear: Fall-Winter 2010/2011

As I mentioned before, my brother is having a son and I'm taking charge of dressing the kid.  I've been perusing a lot of kids lines and, unsurprisingly, found that just like in adult fashions, girls get a lot more love than boys.






This line is amazing. It's a little upsetting that you don't see kids dressed this well all the time...

Christain Louboutin's Fall/Winter 2010 Collection


My friend Jacob over at Friends, Fashion, & Food put me on to these.  I couldn't pull them off, but they are definitely (to quote Kanye West) "so ultra Travolta" (people should start saying that).


It just makes sense that if Christian Louboutin was gonna make men's shoes, they'd be completely different.  And completely fly.  And about $2500.

Cee-Lo - F**k You

This video has been blowing up on music blogs over the last couple of days.  It's new from Cee-Lo Green, most notably of Gnarls Barkley fame.  It feels a little asinine to put a disclaimer on a song called "Fuck You", but whatever.

Warning: This may come as a shock, but this song joyously uses the word "fuck", like, 40 times.

I really love how hatefully upbeat this song is.  Here's to hoping the rest of the album is as good.

Banksy












Banksy is a quasi-anonymous street artist and another of my personal heroes.










"Some people become cops because they want to make the world a better place.  Some people become vandals because they want to make the world a better looking place."

M.I.A. - "Born Free"

This video is cuckoo bananas.

WARNING: Shit gets live.

And if you haven't heard her new album yet, you should.

Donald Glover

This man is officially my new hero.



You may recognize Donald Glover as that guy from Derrick Comedy, makers of the "Bro Rape" sketch (if not, do yourself a favor and check out the link) or from his role on NBCs "Community".  He also wrote for 30 Rock fresh out of NYU, wrote and starred in a movie called The Mystery Team, and does some pretty hilarious stand up.

Oh yeah, he's also a rapper--and a dope one at that.  Think Drake with less cameos, a less underwhelming album, and an admittedly weird voice and moniker.  You can check out Childish Gambino's (told you so) album "Culdesac" here.

 Got This Money (Runner Mix) UNMASTERED by Childish Gambino

And on top of that, the dude's got some serious style.


Do I have a man crush?  Maybe.  But what can I say, I appreciate talented people and this dude's got the Midas touch.
