0 Comments Los Angeles BAPE Store Opening

Article written by the brilliant The Elitaste on the 25 Apr 2008 , in the Announcements category


Had the pleasure of attending the opening of the newest BAPE store in LA last night. In attendance: Kanye, Pharrell, Chad Hugo, Shay (from NERD), Rick Ross, Jermaine Dupri, Pete Wentz, Nicole Richie, Serena Williams, Takashi Murakami and Nigo. The store has about 20′ ceiling with a circular glass room in the middle with a conveyor belt of shoes going around it. Shirts on hangers line the left two walls, while the right wall is a 20′ high glass case with product folded inside it along with the largest pair of BAPE jeans I’ve seen (about 4′ high). The back wall is the cashier with a display case featuring clocks, CD cases and other BAPE accessories. They also had BAPE toilet paper!

Me and Takashi Murakami

Brush It Off
By MAUREEN DOWD

PHILADELPHIA

It had to be the first time in history that a presidential candidate had a hip-hop moment.

Barack Obama, who says he listens to Jay-Z along with his “old school guy” favorites like Earth, Wind & Fire and the Temptations, alluded to the rapper’s 2003 hit “Dirt Off Your Shoulder” on Thursday to sweep away concerns about his pugnacity. (more…)

Article written by the brilliant The Elitaste on the , in the Announcements category

I can’t tell if this is the most absurd thing I’ve ever seen or one of the more genius things I’ve seen of late. He used to be a stylist for a bunch of big stars.

1 Comments Disney’s Song of The South; the fifth most controversial film of all time

Article written by the brilliant The Elitaste on the , in the Announcements category


“Controversial” and “Disney” usually don’t go hand in hand. Until now.

Song of the South is a feature film produced by Walt Disney, released on November 12, 1946 by RKO Radio Pictures and based on the Uncle Remus cycle of stories by Joel Chandler Harris. It was Walt Disney’s first live-action film, though it also contains major segments of animation. The live actors provide a sentimental frame story, in which Uncle Remus relates the folk tales of the adventures of Br’er Rabbit and his friends. These anthropomorphic animal characters appear in animation. The film has never been released on home video in the USA because of content which Disney executives believe would be construed by some as racially insensitive towards Blacks and is thus subject to much rumor, although it does exist on home video in the UK. The hit song from the film was “Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah”, which won the 1947 Academy Award for Best Song and is frequently used as part of Disney’s montage themes. The film inspired the Disney theme park ride Splash Mountain. (more…)
