disregard him "playing the guitar", just listen to the chicks screaming in the background.

I bet she didn't realize this fuckery would be heard. wait a minute, she probably didn't care.

rest in peace.

rest in peace, king.

Ballin'.

Okay... so back when I was at Magic in Vegas, I shook hands with a few "celebrities" but because I've got ridiculous foolish pride and I don't want to come off as a tourist, rather just another person who admires he work of others, I didn't take pictures. Amongst the guys I met (and shared a few words with) were Stephon Marbury, Antoine Walker, Johnta Austin, Bryan Michael Cox and Gary Payton. I feel like I'm leaving someone out, but it doesn't matter. However, I did shake hands and say what's up to one guy, whom unbeknownst to me, is a BALLER. That man is Phil Ivey. Check this story.

Hang around Vegas a while and you'll hear many tales of luxurious excess, though few can rival this Phil Ivey anecdote we heard moments ago.

Allegedly a group of businessmen were enjoying dinner at the Wynn when they looked over at one of the nearby tables to see none other than Phil Ivey.

Big fans of the poker superstar, they summoned the waiter and asked him to send Ivey a bottle of Cristal champagne, compliments of their table.

Happy with their deed, they went back to tucking into their top-class steaks.

Twenty minutes later, the waiter came back...armed with five bottles of Cristal!

"These are for you, courtesy of Mr. Ivey."

The businessmen were impressed. These bottles were selling at four or five hundred bucks a pop so $2.5k's worth of top class champagne was a very generous gesture.

They felt like they still wanted to send a message to Ivey that they were big fans of his though and took the waiter aside for a word.

"Would you have twenty bottles of Cristal delivered to Mr Ivey please?"

The waiter raised his eyebrows just a notch but took the order, made arrangements and twenty bottles of Cristal were sent over to the poker legend.

The businessmen were satisfied that their point had been made and went back to talking about stocks, shares and of course cracking open a few of the five bottles of champagne stocking their table.

Some time later, they noticed a group of staff approaching their table.

They watched with ever increasing disbelief as bottle after bottle after bottle of Cristal was unloaded until their table and surrounding area were filled with no less than 200 bottles of the vintage champagne - retailing at approximately $100k!

When the delivery had been made the waiter passed the awestruck businessmen a note.

"This is from Mr Ivey sirs."

As the waiter walked away they all crowded round to read the note.

It simply said, "...and I won't stop."

I need that Phil Ivey money.

Clipse feat Pharrell - I'm Good Behind The Scenes from Malice of the Clipse on Vimeo.

if you don't know me that well, which you should have a pretty good idea since you might check the blog pretty frequently, but I'm a HUGE clipse fan. I can't remember which year of high school, hell it might have been freshmen year, but from the moment they dropped "grindin" I was hooked.

I think these two guys are two of the most slept on artists in music, and had the music industry not picked up "streetwear" like it has the last 2 years or so, I think they wouldn't be getting nearly as much press as they're getting now, which would be a shame.

check the behind the scenes look at what's currently my fav. song, I'm good.

be safe, be cool, be you.

or for the slow ones out there... go in peace.

JIGGA WHAT? JIGGA WHO?

U SAW IT COMING...

I'll start by saying that Koston is amazing, point blank period. But i cant say that i'm happy with with the switch. I fully understand that the deal was probably far to good to pass up, but damn nike give us a break. So i guess the sneakerheads will be waiting on those "exclusive" ( James Earl Jones voice") overpriced Air Kostons to drop. Let's just hope has total control over all of his projects.

ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST

PS. NIKE: u cant buy loyalty by just picking up legends. Do skateboarding a favor and focus on some young niggas.

don't do drugs.

before i start with my new annual post, allow me clear the air.

i DO NOT have a problem with the folks over at politics. if i did, i wouldn't post anything at all involving them, i dont believe in giving others free promotion by insulting them. derek's a real good guy, been knowing him for a few years now, he knew it was a joke. so STOP e-mailing, texting, calling me. /discussion.

now moving on to the agenda at hand...

i present to you...

riff raff

for any of you familiar with mtv's g's to gents, you know who this guy is. however, i was recently introduced to him and i must say... he's quite the funny guy, whether he knows it or not. along with being a reality tv star, he's also a budding rap artist, dance instructor, and basketball star.

my roommate filled me in on the secret of riff raff, and now, i will share it with you.

expect a riff raff video a day for a couple weeks

p.s... i have no idea what his obsession with obtuse angles is.

i came to kick it.

stuck in louisiana and want yeezys?

even though I don't like this guy at all, it's nice guy wednesdays so here goes.

In Louisiana and want the Yeezys?

Okay so we have been stressed out the past few days trying to figure out how we can release the Nike Air Yeezy’s and be fair to everyone. This is what we came up with.

How do I get the shoes?

Starting on Saturday, May 30th, we will begin selling our exclusive “Air Yeezy” glow in the dark tshirts designed by Great Dane Clothing. There are only a limited number of these shirts, and they will only be available in our store and online. Every person that purchases one of these limited edition shirts will receive one entry into our drawing to win a chance to buy the Air Yeezys. You will receive one entry for every shirt you buy, and if you buy all three colorways you will receive a bonus raffle ticket (for a total of four).

Then, on Saturday, June 6th at 11am we will hold the drawing for your opportunity to buy the shoes. If we pick your ticket out of the bowl, you will be given a chance to buy the YEEZYS.

Why did we choose a raffle system?

Using a raffle system does a few things, and they ultimately benefit you, the sneakerhead. If we had made the sale “first come, first serve”, all of the high school kids have already been talking about camping out for over 5 days…of course that won’t work for the rest of us that have to work, or God forbid, have families.

The second option was to use an auction format as so many other stores are doing, but this just turns into a contest of who has the most money. And we know that a lot of you have saved for months for these and that just wouldn’t be fair. Of course we would make a ton of money, but that’s not why we do what we do.

Then there is the “reserve me a pair” theory. Yeah right! That’s just picking favorites and nobody wins like that.

Oh by the way I’m not getting a pair, and my employees will have to participate in the raffle if they want to get a pair. So there will be NO favoritism at all.

Rules:

You have to be present for the raffle (11am Saturday June 6^th). In order to ensure that everybody has an equal chance at winning the Yeezys, we have to make it this way. If you aren’t there when we call out your number we will instantly draw another number.

Contestants are limited to one pair of shoes. Regardless of the amount of raffle tickets earned, the limit is one pair of shoes per customer. Feel free to give the other possible winning tickets away or whatever.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at Sneaker Politics.

Oh yea we will have music, food, and drinks for the release so come hang out.

for the record, I hate politics, the douchebag who runs it, and he'd be better off selling glass cleaner or steaks on the side of the road, but he will have the yeezys, so for everyone he's been missing out, he's good for that.

^ for everyone reading, it's a joke, relax. STOP CALLING POLITICS ABOUT IT.
