Here's a behind the scenes look at The Award Tour Summer Collection done by the man over at the Street Ettiquitte blog JKissi.

A Gift from Marc Ecko Time x Break Bread With Ash Roth =P

I been meaning to post this! two days ago shane surprised me with a gift from our homie Jesse Jones over at Marc Ecko. i had to make sure i got pictures of me opening it and wearing it for ya'll! you can find this in there collection at Marceckotime.ca

To Jesse Jones and the good people over at Ecko - Thank you very much, i truly appreciate the gift. Shane, Ian and I had a convo yesterday morning in the parking lot after my radio interview about avoiding the pitfall of becoming an ingrate - cause with more success and gifts and what not folks tend to change. they begin to expect these sorts of gifts and cry when they dont get em - not me. i will not change - only the level of my success will change, my personal success is the fulfillment of my potential - my god given talent. 

With that said i say this - "Let me know when you start getting gifts for being you."

Yesterday i also met Asher Roth when he came to my city for a performance and we sat and had a long talk over breakfast (it was really cool to break bread with someone im a fan of) we spoke about the industry and how influential  we both are on the new school listeners - he also said something like "people think im just some punk college kid that came out with one hit and that im ruining the youth by suggesting smoking and drinking but if it takes a joint and a beer to talk with kids like yourself  to teach em about the bigger picture in life then - so be it." we continued to talk over BBM all day about how beautiful my city is LOL but i wasnt able to go to his show because it was 19+ and they were very strict about it. 

so later today if i get time i'll post the interview yesterday morning with DJ JESTER and i'll also get ahold of the video of me breaking bread with ASH ROTH (oh god - have i become a name dropper? - NAA NEVER LOL) 

OHHH AND IM HOSTING CANADAS WONDERLAND'S GRAD NIGHT TONIGHT WITH THE NEW FLOW935 I'LL MAKE SURE I CAPTURE THE MOMENT FOR YA'LL 

KUDOS =P

G-Shock G-Lide May 09

G-Shock, which has exploded in popularity, continue to put out new designs, it seems hard to keep up actually. This month kills it though, the perfect summer colours and a good enough variety to have you contemplating whether to only get one.

Supreme x Malcom Mclaren Collection

If you guys can't tell by now Supreme is definitely my favourite brand right now, it is probly also the most hyped streetwear/skate brand as well. this collaboration features the work of Malcom Mclaren. If you don't know who he is there is a full description HERE! think Punk/Sex Pistols/Johnny Rotten. None the less dopeness as usual.

People's Market Autmn/Winter Preview 09

I mean to post this sunday but have been busy and now that it's hit all the blogs it seems a little oversaturated! The letterman really does it for me though I love them in general and this one is very nicely done, Jahvon seems to like the stuff too.

Saw this on Kanye's Blog and Thought it was Cool!

Mos Def for Neighbourhood

A very unlikely representative appears for this season titled "Holidays in the Sun" is if you couldn't tell Mos Def. It seems to be a strange relationship between him and this huge japanese label but none the less I must say it does look good.
