Big Boi & Theophilus London ft. Tre Luce - "She Said OK"

Big Boi releases a collaboration I can't say I saw coming. With Theophilus London, Tre Luce, some rhythm guitar processed heavily with a Wah-Wah effect and a stutter stepping kick and sidestick combination the three crafted a dope joint to ride out, smoke out or work out to.

The song takes on a Isley-esque feel during the final minute when the lead guitar and background vocals take on melodic overtones and patterns.

I see you Big Boi.

Video: Future - "Same Damn Time"

ATL's Future.

If you ask the name of this record after it's over, you will be slapped with both hands... "at the same damn time"!

DJ Mars Top 5 New Balance Sneakers of All Time

Sneaker aficionado, more specifically New Balance connoisseur DJ Mars(@djmars404) invites us into his closet to show us his Top 5 All Time New Balance shoes.

That fact that he explains how New Balance came to be his brand of choice is significant. It shows that role the sneaker played in his life and how there was a passing of the torch that took place when he turned his uncle on to the shoe. This is a great illustration of sneaker culture and regional pride. 

Being from Massachusetts shaped who they were and sharing an interest in style and sneakers allowed them to bond more and be proud of where they were.

If only more people could do the same.

Nice vid DJ Mars!

Yes... there is more footage.

Video: Cee Lo Green - "Cry Baby"

From The Lady Killer album.

I'm a fan of Cee Lo's but, when he has problems onstage, he has to focus on his performance and work through them. Great performer... when he's not distracted.

New Balance: Don Cannon - Where Are You Running To Next?

I love these spots that DJ Mars has happening with New Balance. They promote the shoe in a subtle way showcasing the personality's lifestyle and the shoe he prefers. It shows balance(no pun intended).

In this episode, we get to follow DJ Don Cannon for the day.(Cool dude. I met him in passing in Los Angeles and he was more humble than some cats who have since fallen off.)

Where ever you're running to DJ Don Cannon, stay the same - grounded.
