The Rick Hoffman story continues with consumer watchdog Barry Reeves testing Hoffman’s claims in this classic episode of “I Call Foul.” How amazing is the theme song? Inspired by the “Fight Back” theme song(it’s in the bottom left corner of the page). Video after the jump. (more…)

I posted about the Play Cloths debut this summer and I love what I’m seeing here. You can catch the back of the jacket in the clip of him and Wale performing “Back In The Go Go.”

I saw dude play at the Jordan Classic back in April when he was committed to going to Arizona. Well, I guess plans change. CNBC reports he’s signed the first basketball endorsement deal with Under Armour, backed out of his commitment to AZ, forgetting the NBA and heading to Italy to ball. Not gonna lie, I’m a little disappointed he didn’t stick with AZ as I doubt we will get to see much of him on US television. He rocked it at the Jordan Classic and I think he’d be on a path to becoming one of the next franchise JB athletes. Don’t think they will sign him after his deal with Under Armour though. Peep the highlights:

My first talk went really well last night. I put together a powerpoint presentation however, they didn’t have the proper media hook up so I kinda just winged it. There was a group of about 30 students and they all seemed very interested which was nice. I gave a brief chronology of my experience with Wale from the beginning up until now. I then presented them with my Phase Zero pyramid (see below) and explained Phase Zero v. tastemakers v. early adopters v. followers. I explained that if they are the ones that people are always asking about the hot new shit, or if they feel like they are always up on something before everyone else, then they are probably a tastemaker and rather just look at that characteristic as a novelty, they should follow their instincts and try to incorporate that into their career after college. I told them that I was in college just 4 years ago and had no idea what it meant to “follow my dreams” and always thought it sounded corny when I was told that, however, the people who usually say that, are the ones who followed their dreams and until you do it, you have no idea what that means. I plan on refining my talk and trying to do this more often, as I think it would have done me good to hear someone like myself speak when I was in college. If you are interested in booking me to speak at your school, you can email booking@elitaste.com. I will post some video from the talk soon.

SFW stands for Safe For Work. I guess some promoter Diesel put together this video for an 18 city simultaneous party in October. Pretty genius if you ask me. Video after the hump (more…)
