Ugh! This new Jordan 1 release is so nasty! The retro premium Gold, Silver & White is said to commemorate Jordan’s 1992 Olympic Team (the DREAM TEAM..duh!) Unfortunately, it sounds like they might be a kids release only right now. Stop playing with my emotions Nike!

I love the designers over at Suck UK. They make the coolest shit ever! With that being said I give you the DIY Ghettoblaster. This boombox is constructed from folded cardboard and comes flat packed in a thin cardboard box. It is fitted with two fully working amplified speakers and a multi-position volume switch. It is powered by four AA batteries (included) and works with the iPod and other MP3 players. This is just one of the fresh products that Suck UK has to offer. Check out their website and find something fit for your fancy.

For those of you not up on the Acrylick game consider yourself told. Acrylick is a fresh clothing line based out of southern California who supports independent arts and music, creates products that carry messages, and inspires creativity. Their brand new flagship store is now open for business. Swing by and show these good people some love and support by picking up a shirt or two. For those of you not in the area, shop online and request Acrylick at your local threads shop.

So it’s not exactly jacket weather but we had to share the freshness. This is The Contender Windstopper Jacket from 9Grand. This mid-weight jacket is perfect for summer time(in L.A). I know our Texas folks are in no need of a jacket. The shell is constructed from nylon supplex and the inner is lined with white sport mesh. Custom zipper pull and labeling. Cut & Sewn in Los Angeles. 3 Panel Hood, zip pockets, mesh lined. Feel the asymetrical goodness of this quality piece. It is available in the teal/black/white colorway and also mint/black/white. Hit up GCS to get your hands on this!

Congratulations to Pixar on their amazing new film Wall•e!! Of course I dragged my Messy to go see this, and quite frankly, I think he enjoyed it more than I did. The film debuted as the third highest opener for Pixar bringing in $62.5 million this weekend. Disney is now teaming up with Thinkway Toys to make Wall•E into a real robot. He should be available in stores at the end of the summer with a retail value of $189.99. Peep the video for a quick demo of what the robot has to offer.

Yesterday marked the release of the Nike+ and A-Trak collaboration. The 40+ minute mix is available on iTunes now…go cop it. As a special gift, A-Trak has released a bonus cut featuring Lupe Fiasco that didn’t make the final version due to licensing. Check it out…crazy fresh!

As I’m sure you all know, the world lost a comedic genius earlier this week. George Carlin passed away Sunday due to heart failure. Saturday Night Live is honoring his memory by airing the premiere episode of the show that he hosted back in 1975. Carlin performs three individual monologues on the program. Musical guests are Janis Ian and Billy Preston, plus a landmark performance from comedian Andy Kaufman. Others appearing on the episode include Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi, Chevy Chase, Jane Curtin, and Gilda Radner. Stay home or set your tivo to honor a legend. Thanks for the laughs George.

This so-called feud keeps getting better and better. Thanks guys!
