nike livestrong + mr. cartoon
To be honest, I was getting real tired of the Nike Livestrong kicks. It seemed liked a new pair was being released everyday. Eventually, I decided to ignore them. As my attention span for the yellow was operating at .05%, Mr. Cartoon got involved and now I’m back on board. These kicks are fresh.
From Freshness: This Nike x Mr. Cartoon Air Force 1 was originally given to friends and family of Mr. Cartoon and never released to the public, the shoes have since gone for upwards of $3,000 to sneaker connoisseurs. Now Mr. Cartoon has reworked the original shoe and will incorporate the same laser technology that he used on the original which reflects Cartoon’s city of origin.

eyedea & abilities release first album in 5 years
A duo thoroughly steeped in hip-hop accolades, the Minnesota-based duo Eyedea and Abilities have returned with their brand new album By The Throat, out July 21st on Rhymesayers Entertainment. Their first album since the breakout 2004 release E&A, By The Throat’s songs range from intensely personal topics to the more esoteric (quantum mechanics). The end result is leaps and bounds beyond what MC Eyedea is perhaps best known for, his prowess as a battle rapper (winner of HBO’s Blaze Battle, Scribble Jam and several others). DJ Abilities, also a well-known battle vet and contributor to El-P’s now-classic Fantastic Damage, adds heavily to the sonic soundscape of this album, which advances beyond boom-bap hip-hop into rock-fueled guitar riffs, gritty production and melodic songwriting.

For those who haven’t heard Eyedea rap, check out this freestyle with him and Slug. This is a ridiculous freestyle session on the Wake Up Show.
