i really love KAWS. i remember being a little younger than i am now and seeing a lot of his acrylic work and thinking it was some of the illest stuff i was viewing at the time. i loved the simplicity of everything and how repetitive the imagery was. burning itself into your memory.
and in keeping with things burning into your memory, the homie KAWS...
Run DMC - “Christmas In Hollis”
anyone who knows anything about me knows i love to support those who are doing something excited and interesting for themselves. enter, DJ Kym or Dr Tekno or Kym Williams- friend in the flesh, younger homie, nice on the DJ front. very cool kid and budding remixer/re-arranger. he’s working on flipping Gucci Mane’s “Lemonade”. will let you know more after the release.

so my homeboy Joseph James has been studying up on how to time lapse videos with his camera. here lies his first attempt at a time lapse. this was shot last night at a bar here in town. a lot of the homies came out to show some support. old school jams, drums, drinks, handcuffs, sirens, debauchery- Kentucky.
