Red Bull Sound Clash: The Cannabinoids vs. Shiny Toy Guns

Friday, October 16 from 7pm-11pm

Red Bull keeps it live by bringing you the Red Bull Sound Clash! An unparalleled live musical conversation between two bands with diverse sounds, styles and creativity; and has been dubbed the ultimate music battle. The Sound Clash is exactly that, two bands going head to head in attempts to win over the crowds love. Picnic and the rest of The Cannabinoids crew featuring the lovely miss Erykah Badu (Texas native) vs. Shiny Toy Guns from Oklahoma. These bands are on the opposite ends of the genre spectrum (indie rock & hip-hop), but when it comes down to it it’s all about that feeling a live performance gives you; and regardless of genres these bands mesh well together.

Pharrell's Hermes Hoodie

Hmmm, now I don't like it when people tell me how to spend my money (unless it's family or the crew), or when people tell other people how to spend their money , but Pharrell went extra hard with this one of one $18,000-$75,000 Hermes Croc hoodie. I mean we know dude is up on his style game, and money aint a thing to him; but overkill maybe? Still clean though lol

Centre @ Mockingbird Station

Hit up Centre this afternoon, left with some goodies and of course they were keepin' it real. Copped the NS's, and Centre's new line of wallets by J.Fold caught my eye. Nice, slim perforated wallet with red lining. They've got a good selection of J.Folds in running from around $60-$80 mostly 100% top grain leather, think they have some more dropping in a couple weeks for around $35. I dunno, I was feelin' anything and everything red/black today.

Mick Boogie & Terry Urban: Wild Young Heartbreaks

Taking the chorals from the Noisettes, Mick Boogie & Terry Urban mix an amazing tape with samples from Ye's 808's & Heartbreaks. The Noisettes voice is killin' it & 6th sense, Dao Jones & Esso are straight with the lyrics. Download here.

Imagination...what good is it if you don't use it?

The masterpiece brought to film.

Blueprint Exhibit @ MAC

Wednesday, October 7 from 11am-9pm

The McKinney Avenue Contemporary will be hosting the exhibit Blueprint, which is a group featuring artists Edward Setina, Brian Fridge, Amy Revier, Paul Slocum and curator James Cope. This group presents works that encompass elements of Sir John Herschel’s (creator of the blueprint) thoughts and ideas and presents them in a site-specific environment.

James Cope has given these four national and international upcoming artists the opportunity to express themselves freely while sticking to the “blueprint” which allows these individual talents to be highlighted in an interesting way.
