Spike TV apparently had a special on sneaker culture, which would back up certain periodicals view that shoe culture itself has gone mainstream. But wasn't that always what sneakers were about? Even if covert and specialized in marketing tactics? Having spoken to that peace, on fact remains: These look nice on the hardwood.
No stranger to the Mofo playlists Cadence Weapon will be appearing at the Middle East on April 19th. This is unfortunately a Wednesday, so I most likely wont be able to stop by, but if you can, I grant you exemption from listening to the show so you can go check this out. I think this guy is going to blow up large. Perhaps I can grab him for an interview while he's in town? In the more immediate future, I might venture over the Bill's Bar tomorrow night (Saturday!!!) to check out Upper Class labelmates Food For Animals. Haven't listened as much to these guys but figured it might be worth a look.
Hit me up next week if you know what's good. Till then, take it easy!
