Patrick Robinson is at it again. First he revamps Gap's tired denim options (and creates some fly stuff), now in a pairing that I can't say I saw coming, he will oversee the release of Keds sneakers to be sold by Gap this Summer.

Gift: Write "Sex Checks" This Valentine's Day




Keep track of what you've got coming to you or what you have to pay out, using Sex Checks!

Don't settle for empty promises, make them put their body where their mouth is, guarantee that you will receive everything that you've got coming to you.

No more writing checks that their behind can't cash. The Sex Check might just be the justice you need.

Consisting of IOUs and UOMES, this may not change your life, but, it sure may spice it up!

Costing under $10 I might buy a checkbook or two for myself.

via multichannel

In a move to avoid getting caught up in a log jam of Super Bowl, Winter Olympics, Daytona 500 Racing and the upcoming Men's NCAA basketball tournament(March Madness) advertising, Turner is taking the digital approach.

They will target Facebook and use YouTube in addition to using magazines and more traditional methods.

Spree Wilson Creating with the Beaterator on the PSP

Rockstar Games and Timbaland are behind the creation of the Beaterator.

Head over to the Rockstar website to learn more about the Beaterator.

Wax Poetics and Rock Star Games partnered to have Wax Poetics create these dope short films I've been posting. Each film shows the Beaterator being used by a different artist to make music... real music!

Fresh!

I dig the way the Brooklyn Bridge and lower Manhattan are used as a backdrop. (There's a lot of development(gentrification) happening along that East River.)

Video: Kam Moye - "Forever Fresh"

Kam Moye comes with the Marco Polo produced joint.

The documentary-style video follows Kam behind the scenes in the states and abroad.

One of my favorite emcees... hands down.

The Wall Street Burger Shoppe

Looking for a place in lower Manhattan(Wall Street) that has good food at good prices? Head over to Water Street, past Broad Street. $4 - $8 for a burger or salad on Wall Street is good.

Word is they Wall Street Burger Shoppe just got a Mac n Cheese Burger that they aren't putting on the menu. I'm going to have to check into it later this week.

If you're familiar with the area(near the Staten Island Ferry & Battery Park) you can't miss it.

The New Orleans Saints beat the Indianapolis Colts by playing good defense and capitalizing off of the Colt's mistakes.

The game was close for the first 2 quarters, but, the Saints pulled away late in the second half and never let go of their lead.

REWIND: UMC's - "One To Grow On"

Before the Wu there was the UMC's - Hass G and Kool Kim.

Gotta respect what they brought to HipHop at a time when it was evolving.
