Port Arthur, Texas’ Trill OG, the one and only Bun B, stopped by the IMKING booth at last week’s S.L.A.T.E./MAGIC trade show in Las Vegas to show our homies some love. B is rocking the forthcoming Oscar fitted and the Beer Goggles sunglasses in this flick – check back for both this fall!
Karmaloop represented all week at S.L.A.T.E. and we’ll have more coverage than mom-jeans for you all throughout the week. Stay tuned!
The Blogs’ future ex-wife Nicki Minaj rocked the hell out of the Joyrich Motor Vest in the video for DJ Khaled’s “All I Do is Win” remix from a couple months back. While the video is better played on mute in our opinion (did you read the post below on Cro-Mags? – ed.), our girl slayed us a few times over with not only her jaw-dropping booty – er, beauty - but also with such gems as “You can talk slick all the way down to the welfare /Ask the I.R.S., bitch, I’m payin’ for ya health care.” Ouch – listening, Lil’ Kim?
Unfortunately, the vest is as gone as Busta’s dreads, T-Pain’s gimmick, Diddy’s alleged chin, Fabolous’ career, and all of the plates at the buffet when Fat Joe, Khaled and Rick Ross show up (sorry, but we really don’t like the song). However, you can check out the latest Joyrich drops for men here and for women here.

Brought to Boston in part by our pals at FutureClassic and Hourglass Tattoo, legendary NYHC outfit Cro-Mags makes it’s first appearance in The Hub for damned near a decade, and Blogs’ is fuckin’ STOKED.

Fucked Up formed in Toronto in 2002, high-school friends influenced by first- and second-wave hardcore bands like Minor Threat and NOFX. It was instantly apparent that they were not carbon-copy punks. Known by bizarre aliases, Fucked Up employ creative methods of spreading information & misinformation. Basic facts are constantly in flux. It is unclear how many of their 7″s have actually been released. Rumors about Fucked Up circulate like wildfire among their obsessive fans. The bottom line is that this band could only come out of hardcore, but they are now making music like no hardcore band in history. Though Fucked Up remain punks at heart – if quixotically diverse ones – they continue to create great, weird, heavy records that stubbornly stick in your brain and your heart.
