Something from Nothing: The Art of Rap Directed by Ice-T

Ice-T gets us behind the scenes with some of Hip Hop’s living legends with his documentary, Something from Nothing: The Art of Rap.

“Ice-T takes us on an intimate journey into the heart and soul of hip-hop with the legends of rap music. This performance documentary goes beyond the stardom and the bling to explore what goes on inside the minds, and erupts from the lips, of the grandmasters of rap. Recognized as the godfather of Gangsta rap, Ice-T is granted unparalleled access to the personal lives of the masters of this artform that he credits for saving his life. Interspersed with the performers’ insightful, touching, and often funny revelations are classic raps, freestyle rhymes, and never before heard a cappellas straight from the mouths of the creators. What emerges is a better understanding of, and a tribute to, an original American art form that brought poetry to a new generation. Read the rest of this entry »

Kanye West – Way Too Cold ft. DJ Khaled

Nike Air Yeezy 2 Wolf Grey | Sneaker Porn

Kanye West renews his collaboration with Nike with the Nike Air Yeezy 2. Although I usually like retro Jordan sneakers (and I’m not a huge fan of recent Jordan releases), I really digg this futurist wolf grey and pale lime soled pair of shoes. They will be available on April 13 so you’d better start camping in front of a Nike store if you want to make sure you get one. Tomorrow will be to late already ! Read the rest of this entry »

Kanye West “Dw” Runway Photos

After weeks of anticipation and so much mistery surrounding the show, Kanye West’s first ever womenswear collection finally debuted yesterday evening at Paris Fashion Week! I could not wait to see what Ye was able to give us, which models would be on the runway, who would be on the front row etc… There it is ! All unfolded to your eyes. “From layered white pantsuits to plunging exposed zipper bondage dresses to jaguar rhinestone encrusted jackets, Kanye’s spring 2012 “Dw” collection left no corner of womenswear unturned.” says the first critic. My first thought is that is profoundly inspired by Céline and that it’s not bad at all. Judge by yourself by looking to every single look in the photo gallery below! Go ahead, take a peek at his clothes, and let us know what you think ! Read the rest of this entry »

Customized Maybach in “Otis” video clip by Kanye & Jay-Z | Crazy Project

Maybach Car in “Otis” video clip:

Earlier this week we talked you about the release of Kanye West and Jay-z last album, Watch the throne. Watching the first video clip of the new opus, Otis (click to watch it), I couldn’t help writing a post about the astonishing customized Maybach 57 they drive! Crazy project, money waste you might think, you’d better think again! They actually had this Maybach 57 customized in order to sell it on auction and send the money to help tackle the East African drought disaster.

Let’s speculate about the price of this unique Maybach 57 in Otis clip: what do you think, knowing that the Maybach 57 production model costs no less than $500,000? I would bet for at least $1M!! Who can beat it ?! Read the rest of this entry »

Kanye West and Jay-Z – Watch The Throne Album

You must be living on another planet if you haven’t heard about the digital release of Kanye West and Jay-Z‘s latest opus Watch The Throne ! The much expected album is finally out ! I’ve been listening to it for a day now and I’m not much impressed… Maybe I was expecting too much from them but I really believe that WTT isn’t as good as Nye’s Dark Twisted Fantasy or Jay-Z’s Blueprint III… That’s my opinion and I don’t know yet if people are feeling the same… Anyway, it’s available on iTunes and I got it so if someone wants a copy just write us an email at [email protected] !
