"Supa Dupa" Tuesday!





I spent a lot of money this morning! It's all about supporting & sowing seeds. I'm a hypocrite if all I talk about is how I want people to go out & cop Big Sean's album when it drops or any other album WrighTrax is placed on if I'm not supporting the music I like my damn self!! Show that love y'all!

Jaspects "The Polkadotted Stripe"

For those that aren't familiar with Jaspects, they are 6 brothers of Morehouse College that are "redefining all aspects of Jazz"! This latest piece of work "The Polkadotted Stripe", their 4th studio album has to be my favorite! Down to the artwork/packaging, the whole correlation with the music is ill!! This album is a perfect rendition of what's going on in music now w/a jazz twist. It would be hard to try & describe the coldness of this album with only 26 letters of the alphabet so I will leave it to you to click the pic above to visit their MySpace & check out the vid below which is "Unifunk" (one of the tracks off the album; also featured on Deuce's Favorites Vol.64). Keyboardist T.Brown & bassist Jon Sowells can be heard on numerous WrighTrax productions. And with any cold band, their drummer is from Detroit lol, "what up doe Henry"?! I assume the album should be available online shortly until then hit someone you know in the A to cop you one!

Jordan 16.5

I'd buy these! "Run to the store to grab some milk J's" lol! I've always been a fan of the concept behind the .5 series (two styles put together) . The 2.5 & 12.5's were OK, the sketches for the 14.5's were dope but these are cold! Hopefully they do a 3.5!


These are getting copped!!

Black at an American University

Sis @ it again:

CNN has explored what it means to be Black in America, but students from the University of Michigan talk about what it means to be black at a predominately white institution, and the obligation they have as students to confront negative stereotypes facing them by always being aware of their actions-in order to represent their race well.
