Tomorrow I'm on the first bus out to mars,

My bags are packed, and my wounds have mended.
And finally I can begin my begining.
Thinking of the perfect Haiku to tatoo on my palm,
I hope mars is what I expect,
because I can't afford to come back home....
Writers block and fustrated with the punches that life is throwing to me I know that today alone I have dodge so many of them but I am becoming tired.
I have so much work to do, and the VMA's come on tonight as we all know

Continuing with their Chad Muska Skytop releases, Supra has looked more towards durability on this sneaker, using TUF waxed canvas on the uppers. Able to take a beating, TUF material is said to be indestructible, making the sneaker perfect for the avid skateboarder still wanting to stay in fashion.

While Fukoaka, Nagoya, and Tokyo have all had their cities Dunk release...Osaka was the last one on the list as they released this past week and Skit was one of the few retailers to carry them. Osaka’s Dunk was inspired by the city’s food and the shoe is also known as the Doutonbori Dunk.

Fresh Videos


Brandy's long awaited comeback video for new single 'Right Here (Departed)... Though the clip is pretty simplistic, it does the awesome justice. I've said it many a time, but can't say it enough "Welcome back Ms. Norwood!".

Queen Bee Still Has It......

As reported yesterday, Beyonce graces the cover of the latest issue of Marie Claire magazine. Well, the feature photo-shoot has surfaced, with a more demure looking Bey still managing to look near-flawless.

Interestingly the cover's tag 'Beyonce's back and ready to shock' seems to be apt time-wise. There is mounting speculation that the 'Deja Vu' singer will be the 'surprise' at next Monday's MTV Video Music Awards - taking to the stage to perform her highly anticipated new single.


Maybe the VMA's will be worth watching after all!!!

Whats Beef?

I know that I have been gone for a minute I need to find some time for my BLOG I kind of lost inspiration and I need to re -find it Dave Whats The Word has just began.
Now back to bloggin!!!
Beef is when supposedly grown men "Goons" define manliness for all black males.
Today as I awoke, through my door I heard my neighbors/dorm mates discussing me, and how I had a different vibe, and as I listened to their in depth conversation about me and how my differences must mean that I am less of a man and more than that, some other things.
As I continued listening I think I heard them talking about acts of violence against me ( I really hope they no better...because everybody has got somebody if you know what I mean trust I might be all nice and quiet and shit but I can mos def hold myself down ). So in my head begins this thought process...
Identity. I dont know what the case is with identity but everyone needs one. Some people let others dictate their identity, dictate their manner of speech and way of dress, this even extends to letting someone dictate how far you will go in life. It's not a struggle to be yourself, the struggle is trying to be like everyone else.As for me, I'm soft spoken, I love smart conversation, I enjoy art and other cultural things, I say hi to evryone, I dress different than my counterparts, basically I do me. You wont find ME spitting rap lyrics 24 hours a day or in any OD BIG CLOTHES because I'm not letting culture dictate or define me.
I will define the culture. At the end of the day, no matter how I choose to carry myself I'm still a man, and I will deal with any other man...man to man.We don't have to be friends, we don't even have to be neighborly, infact we can fight all day like cats and dogs and it's really nothing to me. But Please if you claim to be a "Goon" young men know that gossip is something females do.
To other young men...Don't let the culture portrayed to you, define you. We live in a time where those before us bore the weight of discrimination and racism.
A lot of us don't have any idea of what racism really is. So now as a people we are trying to find ourselves, and too often we let music execs and ceo's at fashion company tell us we are goons and goblins who wear baggy jeans sell dope, fight in the street...and though it is a way of survival and reality for many, young black men we are so much more that what we are told we can be...and thats beef. When I see my neighbors tonight I',m going to conduct myself as a man, and whatever jumps off....jumps off.
I have to leave it at that I'm sorry I had to vent and get that shit off my chest
People crack me up male/female it seems like right before the season changes everyone be on there shit and Im tired of it

STOP JOCKIN JAY-Z!!!!!

By now you probably have seen the video of Solange snapping at the news anchor for mentioning Jay-z and Beyonce in her intro. Her reaction has been pegged everything from “tacky”, “classless” to down right “ghetto”. Yesterday, Solange took some time out of her busy promo schedule to address why she was angry. She also made sure she added “stop jockin’ jay-z”. Hopefully, she’ll gain some of her fans back… I know I am still fan eff the bull sh*t (around the 1:00 mark)

Hot or Not?

With a number of nice colors combining together to form a group of multicolored stripes, contrasting nicely with the black background, these Adidas are some of the most eye catching kicks out there right now. As far as design goes beyond simple visuals and colorways, the Adidas torsion system is definitely a nice piece of technology for athletics, and it gives these shoes performance to match their looks. Definitely the thing for you if you’re looking for something brighter than the standard fall collection fare, these shoes are just as good for wearing daily as they are for a quick pickup game; with both looks and substance, these Adidas are definitely some good sneakers. [But only if you have the swagg of course]

Today, we present the Delivery 1 Look-Book of our Fall “Veni Vidi Vici” collection, an offering that combines co-opted American iconography [imbued with dark-humor sensibilities] with sophisticated button-ups, fleece garments, and technical outwear.The “Veni Vidi Vici” Collection hits stores this week.

Green Light Mean's Go!


The video for John Legend's brand new single, the Andre 3000 assisted 'Green Light', premiered on Yahoo Music today. With the song having been in heavy rotation on UK radio as of of late, this one has really grown on me. The accompanying clip, though pretty unspectacular, does the song justice and serves as one of John's best visual offerings.


Legend's third studio album 'Evolver' is set to hit stores on October 28th.
