Jay-Z x Eminem - DJ Hero commercial.

boogieb: because i know your tired of guitar hero. go dj.

DAPP-kicks: Hotel on Rivington x DC Admiral Sport.

boogieb: damn id work that hotel if i knew id get to wear these joints.

This past summer, DC released a red Admiral as a joint effort with the help of Hotel on Rivington. Upon seeing the first photos, the comment section was filled with both positive and negative remarks on the collaboration. Now, Hotel on Rivington and DC are set to release their second collaboration design on the same model next year.

First off, this is Hotel on Rivington and DC’s second Admiral together; however, it is their fourth collaboration overall. This particular pair owns a predominately black premium leather base combined with an off-white, vintage-like sole. The latter area also features the words, Hotel on Rivington. As a nice, contrasting detail, this Admiral possesses a red ankle strap which represents the hotel color scheme. [holla@nicekicks]

Jay-Z x Alicia Keys - "empire state of mind" @ game 2 of World Series in Yankee Stadium.

boogieb: im mad i missed this but glad the Yankees beat that ass last night though. (series 1-1)

"Before I Self Destruct" - a terrible trailer for a probably terrible movie.

50 Cent Should Really Stick To Selling Vitamin Water and Body Spray...Or even rapping and acting. Anything but directing things like this. I'd like to make fun of it more, but I can't tell what anyone said enough to mock it. All I can figure out is that 50 Cent appears to have directed The Wire B-roll loosely tied together with inaudible muttering. [holla@iwatchstuff]

boogieb: hahaha, apparently his chin has been too low...

WORD?? Yep. Apparently Chappelle just did a five-hour set at the Laugh Factory, and they just put out 2 and half minutes of it on Youchoob. Please Internet Gods, let the floodgate open for this entire set. We’ll even sacrifice Gary Busey if you want. [holla@startoftheline]

producer Ski talks Camp Lo & other stuff.

Ski formed a partnership with Darrien Dash, cousin of Damon Dash. Together, they co-founded "Roc-A-Blok" productions, as a sister company to the then fledgling, Roc-A-Fella Records. Ski contributed four tracks to Jay-Z's debut album, Reasonable Doubt. These included the hits "Dead Presidents," "22 Two's", "Politics as Usual," and "Feelin' It." [holla@wiki]

boogieb: Camp Lo's new album (Another Heist) dropped this week. the entire album was produced by Ski, so if you liked "Uptown Saturday Night" (the younger ones need to get up on that classic) then this new album is for you. So what you sayin Ski...

Ski aka Skibeatz discusses the new Ski produced Camp Lo album "Another Heist", the lasting power of Luchini, Camp Lo with Ski and Camp Lo without Ski, setting music and style trends, working with Dame Dash, working with Pittsburgh Slim and more. [holla@vimeo]

88-Keys - "baggage claim" [mp3 stream] - with lyrics.

boogieb: for all my fellow LOST fans...


LYRICS:
Uh, yeah! My name is 88-Keys & that's the name you'll see on the manifest on Ocean Flight 815. We've been Lost for a few weeks now. I don't think anybody's coming for us. Man... I remember this like it was yesterday; When I lost my bag on day one.

1st Verse:
I woke up from a concussion / With sand on my feet
No futher discussion / I'm a son of a beach

Where's my briefcase? / It was in reach
I gotta drill these people / Just like a prez before he gets impeached

Let me go straight to the liar & pack rat / Scratch that
Take it to the man / With the desire for that hatch

Locke - Don't give me that / Philosophical crap
I know is gonna spew / From you esophagus track

Just tell me where my box is /Before I let everybody know
You couldn't use your limbs / Where your sock is

Save it! / I'll just ask Sawyer
Now let's face it / He'll say he didn't take it

So now I gotta go to Kate / To sweet talk Sawyer
Just to get my briefcase / For a kiss like cheap dates

Sawyer doesn't have it / Nobody said they grabbed it
Now they're all acting like / I'm chasing down a white rabbit like Jack did

Chorus:
My bag got lost / So now I'm looking for it
My bag wasn't found / I got tooken for it - Lost
Have you see it / Anywhere around here? - Lost
Tell me if you see it / When the ground clears

I'm not taking orders from Jack / Like I'm his soldier
I don't trust Katie / As far as my arms could throw her
Expect the unexpected/ When they do drop bombs so
YouMightWantToConsiderHikingBoots.com

2nd Verse:
Gotta investigate this matter further / This madam that I never heard of
Using words / So absurd to

Me & everybody else / Except for Shannon
Distress calls / Who got balls like cannon?

To tell me where my briefcase is / How 'bout you Michael?
You know us brothers gotta / Stick together

I tried to play the race card / But my plan faultered
The only one he's cares about / His lil' man Walter

That's the kid / Who could make reality / Alter

I ain't messing with him / So I slid
Back to Shannon / Just to see if I could find Sayid

And he's over there / Talking to Boone
Let me see if I could get closer / And get the scoop like a spoon

I heard him say / "Stay the Hell away from my sister!"
Mr. Overprotective brother / Not only does he lover her but he used to kiss her...
Under the covers

Chorus:
My bag got lost / So now I'm looking for it
My bag wasn't found / I got tooken for it - Lost
Have you see it / Anywhere around here? - Lost
Tell me if you see it / When the ground clears

I'm not taking orders from Jack / Like I'm his soldier
I don't trust Katie / As far as my arms could throw her
Expect the unexpected/ When they do drop bombs so
YouMightWantToConsiderHikingBoots.com

3rd Verse:
Now I searched all over the island / For my stuff
Man it's rough / When these dead bodies are piled in

There's only so much / That Jack can do
With polar bears running through the forrest / Attacking you

Now let's not forget Claire / She needs the prenatal
Care - Make the wrong move / And Charlie makes it fatal?

I'm not really here for friends / Just my bag
I don't care about you, your drugs / Or Drive Shaft

Now why did Sun laugh / If she only speaks Korean?
There's something she ain't telling
There's something Jin ain't seeing

She making ginseng
Just to poison human beings
And everybody on the cave & beach
Disagreeing

I should've asked Hurley / Early
'Cause he took a head count / He knows everybody on the island

I described my baggage / He said he knows who had it
Now we gotta figure out / Why Ethan's name wasn't added to the manifest

Chorus:
My bag got lost / So now I'm looking for it
My bag wasn't found / I got tooken for it - Lost
Have you see it / Anywhere around here? - Lost
Tell me if you see it / When the ground clears

I'm not taking orders from Jack / Like I'm his soldier
I don't trust Katie / As far as my arms could throw her
Expect the unexpected/ When they do drop bombs so

Apple got that new new: new imac, new macbook, new mouse.

boogieb: check out the new and updated sh!t from apple, including the new fast-as-hell 27-inch iMac (and i thought my 24 inches was a beast... "thats what she said"), redesigned unibody macbook, updated mac mini, and probably the dopest mouse ever created – it has a multi-touch surface. money... im gonna miss you.

^ 21.5" & 27" inch models available.

^ lemme see some dark hands dammit, you never see that, black hands touch your products too, ya know... anyways... if you've ever used the bigass track pads on the newer laptops, or used an iphone, then you know how this mouse works. the entire mouse surface is like a trackpad and reads finger swipes and gestures to navigate. definitely sometime you need to try out for yourself at an apple store.

^ new unibody macbook.

DAPP fashion: Aether space hoodie. Brooks Brothers Mad Men edition suit.

boogieb: When that cold air starts bitch slapping you in the face, you know its time to break out your jacket buried deep in your closet. If your like me, then your obsessed with jackets and must get a new one every year... kinda like when your moms use to get you a new pair of kicks for school every year. Well this year you can thank Aether for your new ish:

The perfect insulating layer piece for colder weather or a stand-alone jacket for milder days. Made of ultra fine ripstop poly, and Primaloft fill. Gram for gram, PrimaLoft is warmer wet or dry than any other synthetic insulation. Unbelievably light and packable. [holla@Aether]

i already know what your thinkin...a suit? what are you Clark Kent muthafucka? but hey, gotta grow up sometime, so you might as well look like those dudes from Mad Men while you at it. They work hard on that show, and by work i mean, drinkin, sexin, and smokin... where's my application?

The Brooks Brothers Mad Men Edition Suit ($1,000; October 19) pays homage to AMC's hit show with a medium gray sharkskin suit designed by Janie Bryant, the Emmy-nominated costume designer for the show, and is modeled after Draper's and Sterling's wardrobes. [holla@uncrate]
