Music Monday

J. Cole has been doing his thing since 2007 with his first mixtape release "The Come Up".

Since his first mixtape he was the first artist to sign to Jay-Z's label Roc Nation. Under Roc Nation in 2009 he released the mixtape "The Warm Up". This was an extremely successful mixtape landing him in all kinds of magazines, and guest features on other artist's songs.

Tomorrow 9/27/2011, J. Cole's album "Cole World: The Sideline Story" comes out everywhere in stores. Go get it and support Hip-Hop. If you haven't ever heard of J. Cole here are some of my favorite songs by him.

Mastermind JAPAN x Bape capsule collection


Here are a couple of pictures from the capsule collection that Bape and Mastermind JAPAN have collaberated on which consist's of outerwear, t-shirts, denim, caps, accessories, and of course SNEAKERS!
Although these items may be at a much higher price than most people would like to pay, there is a reason for this. First off the quality on all of these items are extremely high. A Bathing Ape, and Mastermind JAPAN pride themselves on their quality of their product. Another reason why these items are priced so high is because of the limited quanities, these items are not mass produced, so you probably will never see another person with the same shirt if you had one. Finally Mastermind JAPAN is closing forever on it's 15th anniversary in 2013, so if you purchase anything made by Mastermind then it would be like an investment because the value of these items will go up. This whole collection wont be released until October 19th. Here is a link to see more pictures from the capsule collection.

High top Nike Dunk "Aztec"

Here is a preview of the High top "Aztec" dunk. The newest addition to the Aztec pack which consists of Air Max 90's, Dunk lows, and Air Max 1's.

This shoe is mostly brick red leather, with a gold swoosh, and black suede, with the aztec pattern on the back of the ankle.

This shoe doesn't have a release date yet, but should hopefully be released within the next few months. But here is a link to pre-order these shoes from ebay for $138 if you just can't wait for them to come out, or you want to make sure that you will get a pair. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nike-DUNK-HIGH-Aztec-Pack-atmos-huf-Basketball-low-sb-Pre-Order-/150665804863?pt=US_Men_s_Shoes&var=&hash=item68c858da8a

Donegal Tweed Bape Sta

These Bape Sta's are unlike any other bapes that are out today, or really unlike any other shoe out today. The reason why is because these are made out of Donegal tweed, which is hand spun from 100% pure wool.
A Bathing Ape Donegal Tweed Bape Sta Sneakers
Donegal Tweed isn't traditionally used for shoes, which is why these bapes are so different. They come in two different colorways, the green tweed with a brown suede star and pink lining, or the grey tweed with a black suede star and black lining.

These Bape Sta's are made for the fall/winter 2011 collection, and are out today. You can pick these Bape Sta's up at any of the A Bathing Ape stores around the world, and they retail for $229.

Todd Bratrud Nike SB Dunk "Cigar"

Yesterday Todd Bratrud's Nike SB cigar was released only at the skatepark of Tampa.

Only in Tampa, why? In the late 19th century, there were many cigar factories in Florida making that specific area known for it's cigar production.

This is a limited release for now just in Tampa, but sometime in the future nike will release the "Cigars" on a larger scale.

The skatepark of Tampa has 100 hundred pairs with a limited edition box and custom insoles.

Probably the coolest part of this shoe is that it has brown cigar leaf texture on the side panel of the shoe, and when you tear it off it will give the shoe a look of a burnt cigar.

As much as the camouflage might make these shoes blend in, the wings certainly make these sneakers stand out.

Nike Air Mag

On september 8th at 8:30 the bidding started for the Nike Air Mag's, which were based off of the shoe Marty Mcfly wore in Back to The Future 2. 
Unfortunately the mags do not lace themselves up like they do in the movie. But hey, this clip is in 2015, so we still have 4 years to go before we will see shoes that lace themselves up.
Nike only made 1500 pairs of the Mag's, and will only sell 150 pairs a day on ebay. All of the money made from the shoes will go to the Micheal J fox foundation. So far the average pair of nike mags run $4180.

Tinie Tempah was lucky enough to get the first pair of Mags at the actual auction for the release of the Mags for $37,500

Here is the link to the ebay where the mags are selling at
nikemag.ebay.com hopefully you are lucky enough to win a pair of these bad boys, you might have a chance because Kid Cudi already won 4 pairs, but we cant all be that lucky. Happy bidding, and GOD SPEED!!!
