Drake x Grammy's 2010
I don't even have to tell you how official Drake is, but after that grammy performance (even with the horrible censoring job) Drake is officially OOOfficial. If that performance didn't bring any more hype to his much anticipated FIRST album....I don't know what more the dude can do. PROPER.

Levi's x Medicom Toy
Due to my love and addiction of 559's (custom tailored) and 501's, this caught my eye the other day. The 1000% bearbrick was covered in Levi's denim for the opening of the Levi's concept store in Taiwan. Only 5 Medicom's were produced and 5 random customers who spend $5000 NTD (around $160 USD) will be given one. Legit

Amber Rose Instrumentals x Judah
Some people might hate, but this is actually kinda dope. Judah produced a compilation of instrumentals that were inspired by Amber Rose, her style and of course her body which lead to the creation of some beautiful beats and some "strange" audibles. Very nice, download here:
