How dope would it be if Nike did a special edition of the Neon Green Uptempos, which were retro’d earlier this year, with that WALE AD blue instead! Size 9 over here if they ever come to fruition…
RMJ was personally invited to a brand new social event by ConArtists Guild and LNdour Sunday 9.06.09 as they translate Soho to DC @Studio10. Like such private NYC happenings, all individuals attending this event are of an exclusive order, where style equals substance. The specs below:
We know all too well that looks can be deceiving…The UrbanHangSuite will prove this further, by pitting grit versus glamour, with Studio 10 creating the perfect contrast of environments. Not a lounge or club, but a private loft studio which boasts 5000 sq ft, 30 ft ceilings, 2 levels, and multiple bars. Set in a nondescript location, the raw, rigid exterior is properly balanced by the awe of its plush loft space.
Break from the routine, and see what the beauty of new discovery offers.
PS: If you need to know the dress code, you may not want to attend.

RIP DJ AM
Our deepest condolences go out to the friends and family of Mr. Adam Goldstein. Its always sad when someone from the culture leaves, especially at such a young age of 36.
His last message on twitter was a verse from Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five, kind of eerie when you think about it…
…You might get fooled if you come from out of town
But I’m down by law and I know my way around
Hes done so much for the dj community as well as sneaker culture. He and his legendary Air Mack$ Crew kicked the “sneaker head” frenzy off way back when.
AIR MACK$ CREW
Hope he is somewhere better, enjoying paradise. Rest in Peace.
Y.O.L.O ( you only live once) Make the most of it y’all.
WALE x UCB x MTV = FTW
Wale and UCB set to be this year MTV VMA’s, house band. Great look for the DMV! Lets goo! October 20th is right around the corner, we gotta show the world what we made of!

What a great way to greet the ending days of summer!
We even preview the new logo in the lower right corner. Be prepared for the re-launch in the near future!
Wow, I was immediately taken back by this video. Im loving the black + white theme used, as well as it looking more like a mini-movie rather than an actual video. The lyrics do just that, by painting the perfect image, and director Parris executed it perfectly.
The opening scene you know is pure awesomeness, you know.
ENJOY.

Fresh off of his interview on WKYS with PStew and the One Nation Hip Hop Show, this past Saturday, Uptowns Finest XO drops his 4th mixtape effort. In conjunction with AB the Producer, who has deff come a long way sonically, and we deff respect his conglomerate.
This mixtape isnt the usual dark, raw, gutter sound we’ve come to expect from XO, but offers a new fresh & smoother soundm he’s created alongside AB. In my humble opinion, it definitely works.
We were the first to introduce XO to the blogosphere during this interview way back when and are extremely proud to see him making big strides in his career. With multiple mentions in the city paper and washington post alike, this young talented MC is sure to be making alot of noise in the upcoming months.
