Benz and a Backpack

As the temperature inches higher and higher and daylight lasts just a few minutes longer everyday, clothing lines drop their LookBooks to give buyers a preview of their Spring/Summer Collections. Somehow, NYC-based clothing line Supreme always catches my eye. No matter where (on a skully, a fitted, inside the collar of tee, on a backpack, on the side of a building) the red Supreme logo makes anything look official. The boy Fantastic alerted me to the intense picture of Raekwon, standing with the one, the only, the original street pharmacist Supreme, holding an Elmo doll while Supreme drapes an uzi over his right shoulder.

Stussy – J Dilla Documentary Prt3 (of 3) from Stussy on Vimeo.

The third and final installment of Stussy’s documentary about Dilla dog. The first two segments focus on Dilla’s path, first in Detroit, then from Detroit to Los Angeles. This one is testament to dude’s skill, his incredible ear, the variety of his music selection and production. For those of ya’ll who love Donuts, check House Shoes at 7:48.

The two weeks between the Championship Round and the Super Bowl always seem like the longest two weeks of the year. For one thing, sportscasters give the same cursory analysis on Day 14 that they do on Day 1, so by about Day 6 I’ve heard enough monotony from John Clayton and Mark Schlereth to put even the most alert infant immediately to sleep.

You want an official Benz and a Backpack prediction? Hit the skip.
