Corrup-shun!!!!11

I'm at CTRL+ALT+SHIFT's Unmasks Corruption exhibition this 5th of November since I've got a story illustrated by Woodrow Phoenix in their new comic book. Because I love illustrations, I'm getting pretty EXCITED about seeing the book (Ferry Gouw's in there as well, oh boy, oh boy!)

I don't know how these things work, I'll try not to be sloppy and shit and I'll take phone pics of cool people drinking champagne (if there is any).

And I found this quite amusing:

Vice: How did you get involved in the project? Jason: We’d worked as a team in advertising and had both gone freelance afterwards. My friend John Dunning, who I’ve collaborated on pitches with before, asked me to do something for the CAS Unmasking Corruption project and suggested I collaborate with this writer from Haiti – but that would be silly when there’s so much violence and corruption in South Africa. So I phoned Kate and we got together to make a proper South Africa story.

Hahahahahhahahahahahahhahhahahahahahahaha, I like Jason Masters, he would've adapted my story pretty well I think. But, FUCK THAT, Woodrow Phoenix took it to the ballpark, awesome, awesome job.

I wrote a short (debatable) blog about all of that on Platform few weeks ago, if you're not into reading the CAS Comics Vice interview, (it's almost the same shit, just different subjects, be aware, except of course mine's not an interview, obviously, but you get the point)

40oz Bounce - Harlem/Riversiiiiiide

My three months at home in 'rehab' have called it quits on me. It's loads of bullshit, and we all wished summer would last at least a month longer, but whateva - it was fun whilst it all lasted.

Final send-off happened in Harlem, with my homies at A.L.I.E.N NYC, and 'Van' (who's one massive dude, with amazing pot brownies). The 40oz Bounce Boys always do a great job at bringing all the dopest kids out, from the L.E.S, Brooklyn, and Harlem's very own. And that shit goes down every summer.

Holla At The Empire State, Would You Please!

Bushwick, Where You At?

I love how ridiculous house parties with boozed up teens can get, but nothing is better than simulated sex positions, grinding to dancehall, and getting ear-raped by some Yuksek and Major Lazer. It's not a party until someone gets laid and something gets broken. Isn't this what summer is all about? FUCK YEAH.

Ninjasonik, Tell 'Em How It's Done,

Exactly.

Gang Bang at Ground Zero!

Back from a lovely month break, Man! Trying to resist posting stuff I've liked in a matter of days proved to be harder than I'd expected, fuck, specially when the lovely Dash Snow dies, (FUUUCK THIS). That being said, I'm looking at another one of these motherfucking breaks right now, shit feels good.

You know what else feels goooood? ZaZa's Sooner or Later.

I think ZaZa as a whole is just great. You can sleep with that shit on and it wouldn't bother you, you can go skinny dipping, whilst the sun sets, with this playing on an 8-track recorder and it still wouldn't bother you. For the first time in 19 years I want summer to end quickly.

Hope you're not out there taking your clothes off for free, I mean, for kicks.

Amen,

Summer & Its Breaks

So, the weather has gotten its shit together over here in New York lately, and it's increasingly hard to stay in on a computer taping away, whilst there are babes in shorts riding up in down the breezy parks these days. I'm doing like all my favourite music blogs, and going on a hiatus! and you should too! get out, for fuck's sake, it's fucking SUMMA!


I'll be writing more stuff for Platform though, and Chief as well, and shooting people with my lenses, because nice weather makes you do that.

But the best part of this little break, is possibly the work me and Hems (at City-Slick) are getting started on : 60 French Girls (Can't Be Wrong). It's going to be fucking A-team, because we're gathering the best creative heads we know to spew out bollocks on this project!

If you want in, shoot us an email.

Peace, mofuckas!

Heartbreaker

Heartbreaker - (n)
1. Someone who breaks hearts.
2. Girl/Guy amazingly stunning and out of your league.

when MSTRKRFT teamed up with John Legend on their Heartbreaker track, I don't even believe they thought it would be this fucking good.


The Laidback Luke remix is available for free download, thanks to the good people at RCRD LBL.

Don't Stop Til You Get Enough

My favourite MJ videos/hits ever. This needs no explanation. Sorry Discovery, next post's yours.

A Sigh Of Relief

So, Loud Mouth received a beatdown the other day, and complained about it. Womp Womp. If you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen, dumbass. This whole ordeal just conjured a whole bunch of people who ask for way too much trouble, read the full post on HERE.



Note to Hilton, nobody gives a shit.

On a more positive side, I've posted up my first Chief Mag blog post today as "adhd", under a stream of smoke, babe judging, and laughter: The people at Bacardi are fucking DOUCHEBAGS.

Next post will be about Discovery, I told myself that a month ago!

The Boys And The Girls, They're Still Pretty

Finally, the long awaited issue 5 of Regia is available, accompanied by Urban's LSTN No.5 - What these two have in common? The Big Pink.

Hey You: Oh, I Get It.

Sometimes it's okay to be really into cheesy pop ballads that threaten to occupy whatever's left of your head-space. Sometimes you could even go as far as to spread it among your mates and make it one of your summer 'choooooooones'. Thank You, Pony (2x) Run (2x).
