Friday Slow Jam

drunk-to-drunk-talk some week ago, I have to share this one: thank you Jackie for talking about this old but oh so beutiful, romantic and sexy song by one of the tightest RnB voices, Lady T, legendary singer, musican and producer Teena Marie. Love interest in this song is no other than the maaaan, Rick James, b...aby!

Me at Ametist SR Metropol today - again

hair fuckery x-large
Ametist invited me earlier this week to join her radioshow again, you hear live here at 15.00, we're discussing genus and Hip Hop

For the weekend I recomend: Mapei and Shamoun mfl live at Campus Festivalen tonight
Blue Hill Dance Awards in Hagalundsskolan, Solna where I'm judging
Naxxos at Marie Leveau Sat Night, Brandiii guides you
Mno/Cali Flea Market Swap Meet

For thoose who wished for Promoe doing a D'Angelo (oh I miss you D)on Soul Supreme/Kocky & Robinson Klas'; Last Days Of Disco "This is What I m look Like Naked" you'll get disappointed (cause Johanna controlls her shiiiit hahahaha):

Props to guys for putting Promoe in a different context, but Im not really used to hear his voice over this smooth production - yet. Feelin the lyrics. It's about where I found myself with my dance right now, I just want it to be pure in what ever context I put it, no gimmicks, no empty Hip Hop phrases

Every Day Me

that suit jacket, but i took the shoulder pads away when I bought it 2 yrs ago. have to get new ones. hair is a mess. don't have time.

Jermaine Stewart - Style Check

Jermaine Stewart was another ot them boyish and androgynous 80 ies pop stars, maybe not the best of the MJ followers but this video have some heavy style elements innit!
Check for main girls biker/bathing style (eyebrowns + make up toooo!!!!)
Red headed back up singer: nice dress + hair color
Jermaine s silver shoulder pads
Dubbel breasted suits!
Dreadheaded dancer in nice colors

Stewart is also known for "We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off" a song that referred to the AIDS scare of the whole 1980s, (wich also Gym Class Heros made a horrible song out of last year...) And it was also the same disease who took Jermaine Stewart life in 1997, a liver cancer caused by AIDS. R.i.P

Theopihilus London - JAM!

Downloaded Theophilus London s (the III!) JAM mixtape a couple of weeks ago but forgot to listen to it. That was stupid cause this is better than much stuff out there.
It's many percent Wayne rap style (and a little bit of Pharell too) but Theophilus (if i get twins I'll name them Thelonius and Theophilus)flow is existing in an other context so it's ok.... n we all love Weezy...!

I would say: Theophilus knows, is aware, it's the today-type-of-rapper again, you know, the one that is an aspiering artist not just a rapper: from all to choosing beats to clothes to pickin collabs. It's rappin over loads of really great beats, 80'ies stuff New Look, Prince and John Maus! (Ridin MJs Stranger in Moscow sounds like a crazy idea but is brilliant!!! )Behind the great mixing is Machinedrum and I think he's the talented producer behind Theos own beats. This is a really good selection of music, I recomend you go get yours on the Theophilus London myspace (im writing out that name again just to get it stuck haha)

Narcissisus is Alive

The Great was a local TV Hero at Grand Rapid TV during the middle of the 90 ies, this documentary might bring some sanity into the insanity...or maybe not:

I LOVE YOU Henke Larsson!

Kolla!!!
But it's not because of that; it's about this soccer player s mental stamina! He never was the most talented player but HARD WORK made him what he is today, HARD WORK my friends!!!

This is todays Swagger- like I had no AIIIZZZZ!!! Hubby, I love you too, nearly as much as Henke, and for the reason that I find classic 90 ies Chicago Bulls tees just laying around when I am cleaning our attic...but don't try to claim it, finders=keepers!!!!!

Big Daddy Wahlberg - Style Check

Pappa Jalle stopped by yesterday, lookin tight like this - oh yes, my Dad got that swagger!!! Ok I got him the kicks for Christmas but only because he was longing for a fresh pair "speciella gympaskor"! He was kind of stylish in his youth, "the bandy legend" (coined by Tina!!!), I remeber he told me he once in the 50'ies went to the tailor to get a big "J" on his shirt, and set of a new trend in Haparanda =). We'll see if I can find some funny images next time I visit ma & pa///D

Dee Brown won the NBA Slam Dunk Competition 1991 wearing a pair of Reebok Omni Lite, now they're back, a re-stock (limited to 1991 pairs ww) is avabliable at SnS 1199 SEK.

Nice Reebok item with the classical orange pump button, black-white-orange is one of my fav color collabos right now, wear with gray or black jeans and maybe a black classic bomber jacket!

Get Wet, Graphic Designers

Wet Magazine (released in between 1976 to 1981)was an avantgarde "gourmet bathing"-themed magazine based in LA. Publisher and creator Leonard Koren covered all possible issues and came to capture "a kind of smart, artsy Los Angeles attitude" (wikipedia) but it's for it's, at that time, innovating use of graphic design I write about it!

you find a new book including images of WET magazine at Reserve

Make it Up To Me

The shape. 80 ies, baby.

Hood by Air

It's just one of these funny coincidence today, been hanging out with Jen from incredible Faux Real (next collection is H E A V Y-tight-tight) and she mentioned one of the young guys from Hood By Air, "that you probably would love", I do check their stuff, recognize one of the shirts from High Snobiety and then realize the sweater on Mickey Factz that I did complement yesterday is a Hood By Air-one! Totally feeling the aestetichs and HbA is not only "an other tee brand", they actually got a whole look, Terminator X x well shaved black panther x Jordan fan a.k.a, kid baller from your 90'ies play ground! Yes me like!

Yhey Steelo

Julian Red Jeans, Levis jacket again, vintage XL "Wall Street" shirt, necklace Soweto Street Market (similar at Afroart)

Mickey Factz the leak vol 1

new video from Mickey Factz feat the Cool Kids (you saw the Milk Create Cool Kids Combo at The Lab nyc), some would say "hipster rapper" but im not that fond of the label and it's simplifing effetcts (and yo! - using the term in Sweden on swedes isn't the same thing either). Format Mag got an interview from where i got this, you can listen while you workin...or pretend to work
a href="http://www.zshare.net/download/11008345885be70a/">here
Oh well his shirt in the video is dope n classic Troop jacket too, but why do black people get away with that kind of beard...a white guy would look like mudda f'in Peter Swartling way TO 90 ies to be cool.... back to more swagger ish here on the blog 2 morrow

HUF online!

SlamXHype told us earlier this week that San Fran based super store HUF finally launched their web shop! They've done some of my favourite head gear during the year, here is a selection of my favvs for you guys;

PriNceSs of the Po$se

PriNceSs of the Po$se (one can imagine Zelam s been up in my blog again, writing this huh...)is another new brand that probably appeal to some of the same chicks that are into Married To The Mob, Mama and Lanies Hellz Bellz etc.
I like the cut on this shirt, I got a couple I've cropped of myself and it gives you a nice silouette, wear som kind of tight tricot dress beneath it or jus high waisted jeans or skirt. Skip the suspenders.

Kajan!!!! the classic Taggers Suck tee in this fit, remeber!!!!

Please. To Whom It Might Concern

Do not read my blog everyday and cop subject from it like it was your own. One or two times, fine, but if you do it often you should atleast have a link on your site.

Alla vet hur blogvärlden funkar, man hittar intressanta ämnen även på andra människors bloggar och googlar upp mer och skriver om det, ibland kanske inlägget blir annorlunda och man sitter i ett annat land och ger kanske inte referensen om det är tex första gången man hittar denna blog och det är ett enstaka tillfälle.

Men att läsa någon annnans blog dagligen här i Sverige och plocka ämnen utan att ens ha en länk på sin sida som om man hade hittat på det själv är INTE OKEJ.

Pay your fucking dues.

Time

we all got it. what do you do with yours?

Riot Music...Justice "Stress" by Romain Gavras

Raw and hardcore - horrible but incredible job by Romain Gavras. Ulli used to call the Paris youngstas on the Paris streets "Jackdaws" ("kajor")... , always hangin out, always talkin back, always bothering you. Having the Paris riots in mind while watchin this is unpleasant. But at the same time I can't help feeling the scent of the adrenaline rush.
Thank's Jackie for the tip-off

Busta Rhymes " Don't Touch Me"

Heavy Tune, musicality on the m i c! I'll take this to the practise, B-boys!
