Who got the props…

These cats came out and took it buy storm!  Beatminers-Evil Dee and Mr. Walt came correct and Buckshot is one of the last great NYC emcees,

check the drums so gritty and the sample chop is niceness.

MJ suede brown Lakai’s on my feet…

Big ups to Dreams and Blessings!  Had a dream to be a pro skater…but, i ended up loving Hip-Hop just a little bit more.  Still, Baby Jesus( just seen Ricky Bobby) had a mysterious way of meshing sub cultures.  Osiris sparked it off 99′ – 01′  and when they decided to go from G-Bag to tight pants/punk rocker, Podium Distro comes knocking (Matix & Lakai) they been flowing me for over 5 years now..

Got these ill Beibels,  Love the way he skates reminds me of when i used to play Pop Warner and PAL basketball, don’t get me wrong i loved playing organize sports, but i really wanted to be on my board or at the beach.

Had a choice between a pair of Kosten’s or Howard’s, Even thought he is “the Kosten” the shoe was kind of bulkly.  I skated Howard’s before and black with Gum, solid.

Big ups to Brad for believing!  The Dunlap bros and Podium for making the dopest shoes!
