BUY TUPACS HUMMER!

With a starting price of $200,000 and a buy it now price of $500,000 Tupac's 1996 Hummer is now available for purchase on Ebay.
Vehicle Description:
LOS ANGELES, Calif. - The 1996 H1 Hummer hard top previously owned by rapper-actor Tupac Shakur is being released for sale to the general public. The hummer, in pristine condition, was raffled in a contest by BET in 2003 entitled PICTURE ME ROLLIN’-WIN TUPAC’S HUMMER SWEEPSTAKES. The winner sold the hummer which now, as fate would have it, found its way back in the possession of Tupac’s family. With less than 14,000 miles, the H1 is fully loaded and still in its original condition.

BOUNCE IN HELL

Our Brazilian friends, MIXHELL have just released a new mixtape called "Bounce in Hell".
For those who don't know, MIXHELL is a DJ duo consisting of ex-Sepultura drummer Iggor Cavalera and his wife, producer Laima Leyton. Iggor uses an MPC Sampler with the turntables bringing his original identity to Mixhell´s DJ set with a heavy mixture of rock, disco punk, electrobangerghettotrash and underground dance floor beats. They DJ'ed the after party for the last Strife show at the Roxy in Los Angeles, and it was a definitely a fun time. Check out their video for "easy love favelablast remix" directed by Surface to Air Here.

YEAR OF THE DUNK!

2007 celebrated the history of the Air Force 1, one of the most iconic shoes in Nike's history. We saw an abundance of AF1 releases, some good and some bad. 2008 is the year of the Dunk. Just when you thought that the Dunk was going away, Nike is celebrating the 20th anniversary of this shoe. Nike invited us down to their ID studio to customize a Dunk. This is what I came up with. A combination of smooth leather, cracked leather, and cracked patent in a simple colorway reminiscent of the Jordan 1.

THE NEIGHBOR OF THE BEAST...

Many of you have met our neighbor Ghandi. He runs the Postal Depot Plus directly next door to us. He knows all the dirt on everybody in this town, has the best stock tips, is a major perv, and actually has a PHD. Anyway, we always wondered what Ghandi would look like if he sat in the back of his store reading Hypebeast and Highsnobiety instead of tracking stocks and looking at online porn. This is the answer! If only you could see the limited SB's he's rocking on his feet!
