BlingBlaOW

Don't you love it when you feel like you cant count on a person and then BLAOW!!... I mean i was feeling down for a minute but then i saw the Mighty Healthy realize shirt, which i did a post about. And now there is this Tee.



















This tee hits hard. From it's Simplicity, to Africa being red symbolizing the Blood Diamonds conflict, I love it. Some may say this is juss a bite off of The Ever so Loved "Hip Hop Is Dead" Phrase getting thrown around today. Which is true but at the same time it is Bringing forth a very big topic in a recognized way. It is a play on the thought that hip hop is dead. We say hip hop is dead, it has lost all meaning, and it is not the way it used to be. Well because of Cultures like hip hop(Not mainly hip hop) Africa has been dead for a very long time.

Another point i would love to make about this tee is that it goes towards a cause. Its not just a catchy image The shirt is actually backed by a Group called Demand Details. " A portion of all profits from the sale of all Demand Details! products will be donated to several established organizations to help raise consciousness and benefit communities affected by the conflict diamond trade."--Taking from there site
