We knew 2012 would be a big sneaker year due to a lot of the news we got during 2011. There will be a lot of Foams this year, and there will be a few new color schemes. These lovely pair officially have a date set at March 17th. There is only one downside to these the price has gone up to $220. We know that won't stop you all from getting them. We will get you more info as is comes to us.
Well it seems Wiz Khalifa may have a major lawsuit on his hands. A songwriter named Max Gregory Warren is claiming that the "Black and Yellow" concept was taken from a song he wrote in 2008 called "Pink and Yellow". Along with Khalifa, Rostrum, Warner, and EMI are also named in the lawsuit. Warren is looking to claim 2,375,000, due to the attempt to "engage in a scheme to defraud plaintiff out of the fruits of his copyright of the subject song." Wow this is a unique one, we have heard of a lot of lawsuits as of late, but this one is a little more interesting. We will keep you posted as the details arise.
We bring you yet another dope sneaker you may need in your collection. We own a few pairs of Blazers, from non-swoosh, to non-lace, to custom Space Camp edition pairs. These Blazers are clever with a higher grade premium suede, and more casual feel. There is not much to be said about these we declare them SWAYworthy. The price isn't to steep at $100, but are currently only available at Boston Concepts. So these will not be the easiest to acquire.
As of late Russell Westbrook has caught alot of heat for his play. We do feel at times Westbrook may need to be more reserved, but The Thunder are and have been winning. Our stance is let it go, until we see Kevin Durant stating that his play style is plaguing the team, it's not a problem. Now fans across the board, along with analyst have chimed in with their opinion on the situation, but now a player wants to get involved. The Blazers guard Raymond Felton has added his two cents after they beat OKC.
"That's the type of guy he is," Felton told the Oregonian after the Blazers beat the Thunder on Tuesday, "that's his mindset, that's how he plays. He's always in a one-on-one battle with all the point guards. I'm not really into that. I'm into winning. If you win, everybody gets the praises. We are not wearing 'Felton' on the front of our jerseys; it says Blazers. I care about the Blazers winning."
Listen we like Felton, but dude how is this your business. Now we are well aware that Westbrook has given Felton on court troubles the last 2 seasons when they have met. This could be the reasoning for his statements. Regardless this is a lame move on his behalf, NO SWAY.

The RZA is a hip hop legend, and in our eyes the greatest hip hop producer of all time. That's a bold statement, but due to the fact he was producing entire albums worth of greatness, we don't feel it could be anyone else. He recently did an interview on Chelsea Lately and spoke on the focus it takes for his new endeavors and sobering up. Now we are aware of the full extent of a non sober RZA (the released version of Bulletproof Wallets). RZA has accomplished alot for the hip hop community, crossing over in to acting, scoring, and directing. Check out the interview below.
"Making music and weed kind of went together for me," he explained. "Many years, I've been in the studio making music, making hits and weed was always there but I've transferred myself to directing now. I'm a movie director. You gotta play it sober. I've been playing it sober. Superman focus, Superman stamina, zooming in."
"Even when you're acting, you've got to keep your mind focused. It's a very unique craft to be taking on different personalities."
"A few years ago, it would have been hard but with the maturity I've grown into, I'm good," he shared. "I have no vices, besides pretty women."
Two of our favorite rappers right now, T.I. and Young Jeezy could be releasing a joint album soon. T.I. recently did an interview with Power 106, where he spoke on putting ATL back on top and then the possible project. We are big fans of both artists and feel that type of album would be epic. Especially due to the features between the two on prior records. But, we do have slight reservations due to WTT not meeting the quality of the prior features. We will keep you notified with this one as the details come out.
“Jeezy and I, we have discussed doing a collaborative album. Right now, we’re both focused on putting Atlanta back on top where we once knew it to be,” said Tip.” In my absence, I’ve seen the city take a backseat, if you will, to other areas and other regions. I’m not trying to sleight nobody’s efforts or nobody’s contributions to the game, but I know what my city represents and I know what my city’s capable of. And if I feel like we’re not living up to our full potential, I’m going to gather all the cats who I know who supposed to ride for the town like I ride and we gon’ get it back right. So that’s what we focused on right now. After we do that, then we can focus on anything else. But first is first.”
