Your Favorite Rapper’s Favorite Rapper

Devin The Dude – Your Rappers Favorite Rapper. Wow…we are truly honored, proud, excited…YOU NAME IT!!! to be part of Devin The Dude’s new chapter.(Razor & Tie, Cinematic Music Group, Coughee Brothers) We’ve got a whole lot more to say about the Devin The Dude – Landing Gear album and our creative involvement…but for now [...]

Dear Fall, You’re Gorgeous…

Fall is near! giftd’s all time favorite season of the year. Be gone sweltering heat! Not yet frost bite ridden fingers. It’s not just the weather change that’s exciting though…It’s Fall Fashion (aaahhhh the boots, heels, coats, scarves, sheer blouses, layers and dare I say towards the end of October…furs?) and let’s not forget NY [...]

Feast Your Eyes On This…

My fellow LL Member and all round cool chick, Jerri Chou is behind a meaningful company – All Day Buffet. Which is also behind the New Orleans 100 and the fantastic All Day Buffet Event in October at Scandinavia House, NYC. On October 16th in New York City, alldaybuffet and our closest friends are coming [...]

Will You Be My Street Heart? (I also stole your subscription)

Confid3ntial put me onto Overspray a few months ago and I got him a subscription because he’s a major graff lover/hater/doer and I’m nice like that. Of course I totally forgot about the subscription gift and delved in…from the envelope, to the sticker, to the Roland Brueckner’s (Linda’s Ex and) very cool postcard (fingers crossed [...]

I <3 Ladies Lotto

I first heard about Ladies Lotto about a year ago via Worship Worthy. It sounded like a great group to be part of but for some reason I didn’t apply for membership. Fast forward to 2 months ago and I’m a member and an absolute believer in Ladies Lotto. It truly is a fantastic group [...]

Dude where’s my car?

It’s almost time…

The Life Of Luxury

Ahhh the Luxury Life. Coveted by many, afforded by few. While we like to indulge from time to time in life’s little luxuries, we’re far from owning objects like the $300 million dollar “Dubai” or the $20k “Ego Bentley” laptop (what!?). We’ve got an affinity for luxury goods and completely understand the market, so it [...]

Olympics Mania

Kanye West "Champion Video" Official Directed by NEON from nabil elderkin on Vimeo. Ahhh Olympic madness — the breathtaking opening ceremony (what say you London in 2012), fireworks scandal (I watched the opening ceremony and Matt Lauer CLEARLY stated that the "city" fireworks were a simulation – why the hooha now everyone? Particularly you NBC), [...]

Before Photoshop Existed…

I came across this and quite frankly I’m absolutely amazed. Grace Jones is an icon, muse to many (July Italian Vogue anyone?) and absolutely fierce. (sidenote: do you think she played herself in Boomerang??…I envision her being exactly like Strangé). And there’s no doubt this image is striking. However what gets my attention the most [...]

Youco + Dell?

New York is a transient city — new faces arriving and old ones leaving is nothing new. It’s a different story when friends leave though…we were gutted when awesome Vespa ridin’, Kimora lovin’ and Fabulosity addict Youco (of youcoyouco) left NYC for China (but only for a year folks!). Random story but I was watching [...]

Rising Gas Prices + 3000 year old Doritos…

I took these pictures awhile back on the infamous water bottle shoot in El Paso, Texas. The man behind the counter was happy to let me take them as long as I bought something (in my case a pack of 3000 year old Doritos). (He also smoked cigars and had a respirator). Gas (ahem petrol) [...]

MerSolRei — Holistic Goodness

Some say that karma is a helluva bitch. So when we were approached to re-brand and redesign the mersolrei website, it was pretty obvious that we were going to say yes. We noticed that a lot of other “karmic” websites seemed to be lacking in the contemporary holistic feel so we made sure that Mersolrei [...]

Tweet Y’all…

Ok so it’s clear that there will NEVER be enough ways to share yourself online with others. (I think Gawker coined the term oversharers). So far we’re on Myspace, LINKDIN, Tumblr, Ziki, and now Twitter. Why? Not sure… but I (Sam) figured I’d give it a try. Here goes…please feel free to join me in [...]

I Can Haz PulpFiction.

I came across Jenna G’s positively hilarious post (all in good fun…Jenna is definitely not a harmer of animals) and just had to do a LOL CATS style caption. Sam
