Generations apart. They don't see what I see. I might not see what they see or have seen. A mutual understanding may never come to fruition, but a consistent wall of support should always be in place. -JSawyer

Quite impressed with results of the Black Scale and Android Homme collabo, the kicks are refreshing and somewhat futuristic. I give the line a 4.5 out of 5 stars. -JSawyer

Lupe Fiasco - "Solar Midnight"

Lupe gets his hip rock on for this, his latest track that was also produced for the recent Twilight New Moon flick. And please, please, don't judge it because of that because the track and the video are equally dope material.

Art Basel - 12/3/2009

The setting was a mildly humid, yet still refreshing post rain affected Miami Art District. With eager eyed faces wandering to and fro rotating from phone to camera to friend to art and back to camera, a low resonating jibber jabber filled the air, but the excitement was intense nonetheless. All in appreciation and love of creativity and art in general. Art Basel 2009.

Being a ripe, new resident of south Florida and a lover and admirer of art in general, I knew this was an occasion I could not pass up. It was my first time experiencing such a profoundly appreciated festival such as this, and I definitely left fulfilled and inspired to the max. Some of the most talented and infamous artists from all over the world had their pieces in many of Miami's finer galleries. Feeding from and being inspired by fellow creators is a huge part of any artistic process. If you attended Art Basel and didn't experience the waves of creativity smacking you in the face, please check yourself into the nearest health facility right away. Your imagination is a powerful tool, which much of the time, need not be harnessed at all.

The Wynnwood Walls being the highlight of the event for myself, left me somewhat in awe of the beauty but more importantly the creative vision of such amazing artists. Check below for a few pics I was able to capture at the event.

LeBron's "Think Pink" VII

Not typically a fan of Bron Bron's kicks, but these "Think Pink" LeBron VII's, in honor of breast cancer awareness, are pretty stinkin dope. Not many cats in the league could pull these off, but who am I kidding. It's the king; he can rock anything. -JSawyer
