This stuff is my favorite body wash. The black pepper oil used in their re-charge black pepper body wash is an aphrodisiac which warms and relaxes muscles, and dilates blood vessels to help remove toxins. This shower gel has antiseptic and anti-oxidant properties which keep your skin ultra-fresh and in condition. Has a refreshing, natural aroma of vetiver, basil, bergamot, galbanum, amber and vanilla. And at $28, it doesn’t break the bank. Trust me…it’s worth it. Click HERE to buy

3 Comments Nike Boots chyron

Article written by the brilliant The Elitaste on the 16 Jan 2009 , in the Allido Records category

From Elitaste

MTV didn’t have the chyron on the video when it first debuted but they’ve since added it. The video came on last night and I took a picture just so I could address how ridiculous it is that we have a video that Wale paid for himself, directed by Chris Robinson, off a Mixtape About Nothing on MTV. Does anyone else find this as ridiculous as I do? And by the way, the title graphics are called a chyron. Lower thirds are also often known as chyrons in North America and astons in the United Kingdom, after the major suppliers of lower-third editing systems. Other common terms include superbars (or simply supers) (US) and name straps (UK). You learn something new on elitaste everyday!

0 Comments Rap videos in ski resort areas: Naughty by Nature “Feel Me Flow” and Young Gunz “No Better Love”

Article written by the brilliant The Elitaste on the 15 Jan 2009 , in the Announcements category


I don’t think people realize how revolutionary this Naughty By Nature video was. First off, Treach was a straight up sex symbol rapper back in the early 90s. Second, the padlock on the chain link around the neck…so powerful. 3rd and possibly most monumental are the snowboarders. Snowboarding…in a rap video…in 1995. Today that might not be THAT big of a deal but remember when Stevie Williams was one of the first pro black skaters to get like super sick? Remember when Pharrell had black skaters in the “Frontin” video…don’t front like you weren’t kind of surprised by that a little. That was only a few years ago. Naughty By Nature had black snowboarders in 1995! Now…correct me if I’m wrong…but not until 2003 did another rap group feature snow resort activities in a music video; a Wale and elitaste favorite: Young Gunz f. Rell in “No Better Love.” This is one of those few videos where I actually would love to be hanging out and doing what they are doing. They are keeping it real grown and sexy in the lodge with a few select ladies; none of this out of control club nonsense. Clearly they brought the chicks skiing for the weekend and they’ve committed to being with them for a couple of days, perhaps it’s love? Not only that, they probably aren’t going to bed super late because they want to hit the slops in the morning; maybe some Irish coffees after dinner and some Scattegories. “Hey Chris and Neef…can me and this girl who I kinda like come to the ski house this weekend too? Yeah? Can I hitch a ride in the range and maybe borrow a thermal? Sweet!”

EDIT: Thanks to Pierre, I stand corrected about this…Silkk The Shocker f. Trina “That’s Cool” (1999…notice the Dreamcast reference). I’d never seen this video before but this is great. It’s like a Ruff Ryders video but instead of Yonkers it’s Juno, Alaska and instead of motorbikes, it’s snowmobiles.

I made this post in January but I need to make it again. It is so cold in LA and this is the only thing that’s keeping me alive.

If I won the lottery, here’s a list of things I would do in order: buy a house; buy a McIntosh sound system for the living room; listen to Coldplay’s new album front to back; then take a vacation around the world. Seriously.
