Gordon Gartrell Radio

May 16, 2008 by Jero

Yessir! Phonte and DJ Brainchild have started a weekly podcast called Gordon Gartrell Radio where they play music and discuss world topics, cooking recipes and gardening tips. The inaugural episode Phonte covers a wide array of interesting subjects from laughing at retarded people(Iron Mic Freestyle Battle) to Hilary Clinton swagger jacking. Gordon Gartrell Radio covers it all.

I love Phonte, I love Little Brother, I love the Gordon Gartrell episode of The Cosby Show and now I love Gordon Gartrell Radio. They play a nice mix of things past and present to get you through your day. I totally trust and respect their choices based solely on the fact that Brainchild plays both “I’m Gonna Miss You” by Milli Vanilli and “Get On The Dance Floor” by Poly in their very first episode. That deserves praise.

Wow, the Gordon Gartrell episode of The Cosby Show is so amazingly classic. I remember when Denise calls Vanessa into the room to keep her company cause she’s nervous about making the fake Gordon Gartrell shirt and then you hear Theo yell “DENISE!!!” Seeing the shirt Denise made and how one sleeve was longer than the other. Wow, that image is forever funny in my mind. Sometimes if I notice one of my friends get a new shirt, I say “It’s dope” and ask: “What is it? Gordon Gartrell?” 9 times out of 10 they’re looking at me with a puzzled look on their face while they watch me laugh uproariously for the next 5 minutes.

Get the first episode of Gordon Gartrell Radio here.

The word “Gordon Gartrell” was used a total of 10 times during this post.

Laced Got Dope Truckers!

Too bad the Laced I’m referring to is located in Brisbane, Australia. I wish Dope Distribution would distribute(sorry that was horrible) to the US.

*sigh*

Everybody Nose Video

May 16, 2008 by Jero

I thought the Nose character(designs courtesy of KAWS) would play a more prominent role in the video. Chad with wig = hilarity and Lindsay Lohan repping herself with the coked out bitch cameo. Damn, I love the breakdown on this song. Has that undeniable N.E.R.D. sound. Since I don’t go to clubs, I have no idea how accurate this video is. Is there really that many girls at clubs doing lines in the restroom? Yet another reason for me to not go clubbing.

Here’s a towel, wipe your face.

I wonder who was on production duties on this remix? I can’t pinpoint it. Doesn’t sound like Ye, I can hear traces of Timbo and The Neptunes though. I don’t know. I like this remix just because I’m fiending for anything CRS related. Pusha T’s flow is very fresh.

Dedicated

Two years on dialysis, a kidney transplant and just recently a mild stroke with a month of rehab on top. Still the worst thing she’s ever had to deal with in her life is her idiot son. The strongest person I’ll ever know.

I love you Mom. Happy Mother’s Day.

Ugh, I hate videos that don’t sync up.

A Bathing Ape Spring/Summer 08

May 10, 2008 by Jero

A little late on this one. The last of my Kinokuniya purchasing. Bape Spring/Summer 08 Collection showcasing upcoming pieces to be released, most of which are out already. Oddly enough I particularly like the kids section(Speaking of which, why is this in here anyway? Shouldn’t this kind of thing be reserved for the Bape Kids Catalog?) where they show young Japanese tykes decked out in outfits that cost more than my rent. Enjoy.

Making Music With John Mayer

May 8, 2008 by Jero

John Mayer is not only one of my favorite musicians but he’s also pretty damn funny. I’ve seen a quick video of him doing stand up and he wasn’t all that bad. Just him getting up there and trying his hand at it gets my respect. The video with him and Kanye working on “Bittersweet” and his 2 Girls 1 Cup parody are hilarious and this one is no exception.

It isn’t enough that this guy bangs hot chicks, has a blog* on Honeyee and can write, sing and perform great music, but now it turns out he’s actually pretty good at comedy too? Man, fuck him.

I also like that he’s wearing a pair of Infared Air Max 90’s in the video. One of my favorite sneakers of all time.

* His latest post on attempting and maintaining a 80’s style feathered haircut is classic.

The hottest shit out right now. I already know it will be one of the better albums I hear this year. I’ve been listening to it non stop since I got it. Fucking bananas. Take a little Kelis, add some M.I.A. and then throw in a bit of Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and then multiply it by 4 and you’ll get a better idea of who Santogold is.

What’s Good? Kuala Lampur Grand Opening

May 6, 2008 by Jero

Dope Distribution posted a video on the KL Grand Opening What’s Good? store. I love the Know1edge x What’s Good? tees and jeans designed by Bad Boy Ben with the fresh monogramme print.

Oh and I suggest to stop watching around the 2:30 mark unless you want to be exposed to some hardcore fierce asian rapping son! I don’t know who these cats are but they seem to have a guy that can rap in English ala Verbal. I wanna see these guys and the Teriyaki Boyz in a knife fight. A lyrical knife fight that is with words…then maybe a real one, with real knives. It would be funny cause neither crew will know what the other is saying so when one crew gets done rhyming in their respective language, they can then have their translators translate all of the disses. Oh yeah, apparently Jin is down with the crew and rhymes at the end of the video.

Subcrew x Brainchild

May 5, 2008 by Jero

Subcrew collab with Brainchild on this dope cap. I don’t even know what Brainchild is but apparently it’s their 1 year anniversary. Cap is limited to Taiwan.

I’m sure no one in Taiwan reads my itty bitty blog but if by some remote miniscule chance there is someone out there that does, I have a request: Get me this hat. I would give up a finger to have one. Like my pinky finger on my left hand for example. I don’t need it, it doesn’t serve any real purpose at all. Take it, it’s yours. Just get me this hat.

Or I could just you know, pay you for it instead.
