"Combat On Crack"


My Favorite boot in hand. I bought these in november of 09 (Steve Madden), and i made sure I wore them with almost everything I wore, but now I'm looking to step my game up a little bit more.

Im in need of some Doc marts!!!! (Dr. Martens) This floral print on a combat boot takes the serious hardcore edge off of them. I love em'!!

" Deep"



Why isn't this guy really big???? An absolute true poet, and really a individual with his rhyme schemes and choice of words. Thats what makes Wale....well....WALE....
He uses Alicia Keys's instrumental from the song "Unthinkable". The combination of such a deep and inspiring artist and instrumental makes for some good quality rap. Wale is also a big sneaker junkie who's always lookin for the newest, and sometimes rarest kicks there are.
Check out his new mixtape "More About Nothing": a sequel to his, "The mixtape about nothing"
.Like him or not...I love him...Enjoy..........(Christopher Colas)

New Logo

I am currently working on a new logo for our group, I have developed one, but we need the input from you, our fellow readers to make this logo truly something special, here's a rough draft....

Accessories Part 2: Lids

This my friends is Milan, who just happens to be Chris's little brother, and is showcasing his love of hats. I guess you can tell where this post is headed, so...

Lets move on to part 2 of this series and lets talk about hats.
There are many kinds of hats, but some of the most common are fedoras, such as what Milan is wearing. "fitted" or "snap-backs", are always big. Rapper J. Cole is seen below with a fitted cap.

There are also beanie, a hat that many of the Backpack Boys seem to love.

Here is Justin and John, both rocking a beanie and skinnies.
Hats are a matter of taste, but come winter time they're a necessity. To keep your hat game unique, go colorful and/or match it with your outfit. Next thing you know, your peers will be "tipping their hats" to you.......pun intended.

"Across the Pond"


This decade has seen numerous superstars arise from that little island across the pond, but sadly I must report, this upcoming artist is not from there. Theophilus London is a native of Brooklyn, you know, Jay -Z and Fab's territory. His music blends Electronic and Rap, not unlike Kid Cudi. But his style......well, it definitely draws its roots from the queen's domain.



Look for his mixtape, This Charming Mixtape, which is out now

"Mr. Rager"


The self proclaimed Cleveland city grinder is back with yet another hit song called erase me featuring kanye west. this song will be on his album Man on the Moon II: the legend of Mr.Rager which drops on October 26 of this year. Kid Cudi spends DAY AND NITE (HAHAHA) striving to be the best artist he can be along with becoming a fashion icon as well. Kid Cudi has recently beat stiff competition in becoming Time out New York's most stylish new yorker, although many may disagree I think that's rightfully deserved. Cudi has always had the right mix of different elements, whether it be music, or his style of dress; he still manages to stay humble about everything. (your back pack boy Adrian Willis)

"Master Shortie"



Corrine Bailey Rae, Lily Allen, Slick Rick are all great artists from the UK. I wasnt absolutely astonished by this video, but it's fun and retro. Master Shortie? I found that persona kinda funny. Whats with all these new light skinned artists??? Drake, J.Cole and Now "Master Shortie". I do enjoy his retro style and his utilization of "old school" patterns, Whata'ya think?? Enjoy.........(Christopher Colas)
