New Year NEW SH*T PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

         2006 is long gone but we are still living in the destruction our culture caused last year. Hopefully we can dig our selves out the rubbish and get back to being the real deal. I remember watching Beat Street, Style Wars, and other movies based on the 80's and late 70's culture and saying to my self "Damn those dudes back then were so innovative, creative, and different." They brought to the world a new way of thinking, expression, and living. But now of days our vision has been blurred by the weak efforts of our youth, and grown ass men trying to mirror that same sense of style and fashion. The youth of the late 70's and 80's were doing things that were never seen, and they were creating a lane that had never been paved before. But today we see kids looking more like Steve Urkel calling them selves "Old Skool" or "Retro". But there's nothing old skool about it. We try to hide an open eye to these events and things that are happening but i believe we can never move on unless we cut this Crap out.

         All the designers and clothing lines that are well established or on the come up in the "StreetWear World" please show us different ideas and material in 07. Don't do it for me, because who am I but a lonely hater with nothing to do but cry. Do it for the kids of our future. Because when these young kids look back there gonna say "yo 2006 was them old school days, Look at them wearing Kongo's and acid washed jeans there hot they started that shit." And then they forget or never learn about the real kids who started there own thing and were the creative geniuses behind the Culture in the 80's. The line between biting and inspiration gets blurred many times. I think its time too get out the reading glasses and see things for what they really are.

         Last year we saw the Defamation of HipHop's Corpse. HipHop has been "dead" to the main stream eye for many years. In the 80's and early 90's the new artist that were at the top and getting the most play were artist like Run DMC, Rakim, Pete Rock and CL Smooth etc. Now of days the main artist getting played are not saying anything meaning full and are just making songs about the same thing over and over again. Whether they are from the south, north, west, east, or mars. Please in 2007 lets be creative and different.

         I say HipHop is dead to the main stream audience because HIP HOP is alive in the underground. I mean when you got new albums like Liberation from Talib Kweli and Madlib how can you say hip hop is dead. The HipHop on 106 and park is dead. That part of the culture is DEAD. But there are artist creating Jewels that will stand the test of time. And they are living in the underground or not so main stream community

         Last year we saw the death of the Producer, DJ, and Soul. From J-Dilla The producer dieing, Beat Street record shop in Brooklyn getting closed, and Jame Brown Dieing. This is a symbol of our culture today. We are running out of time to make our stamp in this worlds history. So in 2007 i ask for NEW SHIT PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
