LRG 2011 Summer Lookbook

LRG is one of my favorite brands. They did a great job at presenting that summer feel, with cargo shorts, button downs, tank tops and short sleeves. These sunny weather clothes have a more laid-back, contemporary feel, and LRG did a great job creating this sneak peek to their 2011 summer lookbook. The pictures feature rapper Freddie Gibbs and Dj Double-O (from kidz in the hall), as well as a few members from the LRG skate team.

2012 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 Commercial

yup, so here is the commercial for the 2012 Lamborghini Aventador Lp700-4. The next step? somehow earning enough money to buy one. Seriously though, the new lambo is mean, and the commercial is pretty sick, as far as car commercials go. If you wanna see more, than click here....

Bugatti has decided to transform this once concept car, into reality! The sleek, new, 4-door sedan will retail for 1.4 Million Dollars USD.

Honestly, i wish i had 1.4 million dollars to blow on a car. Either that, or i wish that Bugatti would make a innovative, modern looking car that the average person could actually afford. (:

Drake's New Year Resolution.

First off, i want to wish everyone a Happy New Year! I hope everyone has a wonderful year, and preforms to their full potential throughout the year. Remember, the Sky isn't the Limit, Because their is No limit.

A Common tradition, When the New Year rolls around, is making a resolution, or a change for yourself. It can be anything from losing weight to quitting a bad habit, to finding love.

Here is what Aubrey Graham has chosen as his New Years Resolution, and i think Drake has the best one out of any other rapper by far. He continuously proves he is a down to earth, respectable human being.

"Well, we don't have Resolutions we've just got Reservations. I try to live my life right every day. Then again I can't really say that, i've gotta be honest, that's a line from the album. I do actually have resolutions." 

"It's crazy, i really had a moment seeing some old friends and being around my family. I was just like, I do pride myself on being a humble guy that is still connected to his fans and still every much with the people. But I just wanna get even better than that, as challenging as it is, I just want to be a better guy, a nicer guy. I really want people, when I leave this earth, to say that was a great man, that was a great guy, he was always kind. But that takes a lot because there's a lot of shit that can frustrate you in this position but that's one of my things man. I just want to live this year, not getting caught up in certain things, even when people frustrate me still shake everybody's hand. I remember when I use to be that kid just coming up and I use to go to everyone's dressing room and say hello and shake hands and tell them what songs I love. Now you get to that point where it becomes like clockwork and you kind of just walk in and walk out and there's something that bothers me about that. I want to be a little more personable like I haven't made it and it's just business. I wanna get back to me before, before all of this whirlwind. That's my resolution."

Here is a video of Ye in an interview with Hot 97. GOOD Music founder, Kanye West, Expresses some words of a true artist, take notes.

“I’m never at my worst because even at my lowest, it’s a learning experience. It’s something that I’ll bounce ideas off of. So I can take negatives and flip them into positives at all time.”

Wiz Khalifa x VIBE Magazine

I think this last show really won a lot of music critics over in the Big Apple.

[Laughs] Yup, New York, man. I think wherever you go, when people hear good music, they will react to it. All I try to do is go onstage and have fun and be myself. I want everyone else to just let go. There wasn’t really anything that made New York feel different. They smoke just as much weed, know all the words, and go just as loud. My fans all react crazy out here, just the same. I think it’s more of a Taylor thing, than a regional thing. Being that it was in such a critical city, it was good for other people who dont believe to see that.

Was forming the Taylor Gang movement always the plan?

I always hoped that I would get to this level and have these kinds of fans, and as I got older and learned more about the business, marketing, and branding, I saw that I could do my own thing. I was always a part of other artists’ cult followings when I was younger. I was a big Bone Thugs, Wu-Tang fan. I was into it but I didn’t understand how I could develop my own movement.

I just talked to Yelawolf who was saying how there was a number of times where he was booed while opening up for you. Why do you think that happened to him?

Yela is just a talented dude. I wanted to have him on the tour because he’s so homegrown and grassroots. We got the same goals. I believe in him. I know some of the cities were rough but his heart is so huge that he made it work. Later on down the road when he’s a superstar, he can laugh about it. It’s just building character.

Are you planning on dropping another mixtape before the album?

I’m working on a bunch of material. Some of it, I’m just going to throw out there for free. I’m doing a bunch of collabos and features at the moment. Maybe a mixtape. I’m looking at the album coming out in March or April of next year. I can’t give you the title yet but you know what to expect from me.

What has been your favorite collabo thus far?

Definitely, it was working with Juicy J and Snoop. I did something with the Doggfather for his album. But people don’t know I’m a huge Juicy J fan, I grew up on Three 6 Mafia. I look at them the same way I look at Snoop. We actually got another record that we haven’t released yet.

You and Snoop are a-likes. How big of an influence has he been on your music?

Hearing Doggystyle for the first time was really important. I was living in Georgia at the time with my Mom. I was too young to even be listening to it but she had a ghetto homegirl who used to blast it in her truck when she would give me rides. I remember it sounded so bad like people getting their heads cut off and the blood squirting out. [laughs] That’s just the vision it gave me. But I was so into it. My favorite song now is probably “G’z Up, Hoes Down”. But back then you know “Gin & Juice” was like the single of the decade.

You have a big single of your own climbing up the charts with 'Black & Yellow', there have been rumors that the Steelers reached out to use it at games. True?

Yea, they are. I haven’t been talking to them personally but it would only be right. They’ve been talking to my management about it for sure.

It’s probably your most successful song to date. But, really it sounds more like one of the joints that you just had fun with.

Yea, that’s vibe, man. When we were done with it, the producers Stargate were really happy with it. And from they’re reputation alone, it made me think twice about it. I took it to the label and everybody was clapping by the end of the meeting. People can’t box my sound in anymore.

How do you feel about the whole ‘weed rap’ labeling?

It’s cool because people are always going to label you as something. And before this year, it really wasn’t that genre of "stoner rap" at the forefront or whatever, but I’ll just use it as motivation to build on and change people’s opinions of me. Even with whatever people want to label me with, there are so many other sides to me.
