Some new Visual from the New Jersey Native Moruf This is a really dope video Theo Martins x Los Angeles 03/17/2012
Theo Martins talks about his move to LA and what he felt like he needed creative stand point to be true to himself and his music. Pretty inspiring words. saw this over at ANMLHSE.COM Visuals by http://thecrfty.com/ DUKES inspire KINGS 03/09/2012
       I was able to attend this event at the Apple store in Philly. Curran J and Seun Olubodon shared their stories of how they have used social media to connect with people, engage different groups online, and grow their brand. It was pretty good info that they shared and I just wanted to share a few points that I took away from the event. I think the main thing is knowing that you have all these tools at your finger tips but are you using them to really connect with people. You should really use the internet as your own little army for your brand. I’ve been doing shirts for a while and I feel like I have a better brand than a lot of brands that I’ve seen who have more buzz than me (Believe in your brand ). But I think my main fault is that I haven’t made others fully believe in the brand. There are lots of ways to streamline your social media activities without having to physically make each individual post. So if you use Seemic or Hootsuite you can post when you are asleep. Also just starting from where you are now. I think we say this is our dream or goal but "I can’t go hard at it until this happens or I get my money up" so forth and so on. There is no greater time than the present. I believe we want this instant gratification when we start something and that is not always the case . Write down your goals and be realistic. Take little steps to get to the big goal. check out all those involved in the event @godsavetheduke @Curran_J and @hyloboutiques KONY 2012 03/07/2012
Please Watch This is a very interesting video but there are some questions I have after watching this video. First if America only sent military ADVISERS how is KONY supposed to be captured? It would still be up to the Ugandan people to stop KONY. Also I understand that financial support is always needed for a cause to have a stronger impact but i'm not understanding what type of equipment is needed to find someone hiding in the jungle. How do you send military ADVISORS and not send any equipment with them. America does have somewhat of a problem finding individuals who don't function 100% off of modern technology. Also the marketing campaign for this is something serious and its crazy that with movies like "invisible people" and Guess donating money towards the cause you would think more people would know of that some type of change had occurred but Kony has be doing this for 20+ years. Truthfully I think this is a great cause but my main concern is that it somewhat looks like a what guy trying to save another African nation and the stereotype that Africa is the continent of poor people who cant save themselves. The only people who fully understand Africa and have the power to change Africa are the people who live in these nations! Young Guns x Coltrane Curtis 12/30/2011
1-2-1 with Jeff Staple and Greg Selkoe 12/28/2011
I don't know how you feel about Karmaloop but I can say that my feelings about the site varies. At first I thought this was a great site to get clothes that no one else would ever have and I would be able to be the definition of an individual. I used to just comb through the shirts just to see if I could see any trends or just learn more ab out brands I've never heard about. Then its somewhat become a wasteland for streetwear brands to sell their clothes on the site. On the other hand it's also a great place for up and coming brands to have another outlet and reach more people. Jeff Staple teamed up with Greg Selkoe, CEO of Karmaloop as another installation of his 1-2-1 series, he dropped some knowledge for all brands to learn. Scholatic Survey 12/17/2011
Jeff Staple, Phil Annand and HypeBeast. These two guys influence me a lot. I enjoy the organic feel that Phil brings to the internet and the its just a simple t shirt brand that i'm running attitude of The Award Tour. Jeff Staple is a major influence in sneaker culture and urban wear in general. I think I have learned a lot from the visuals they have graced the internet with in the last 3 years. Just watch and hopefully you learn something. Jeremy Scott x Adidas Originals x S/S 2012 12/05/2011
I must say Jeremy Scott does it again with this collection. I like the fact that he uses colors and still keeps that athletic feel of Adidas in his work. I really only see your most confident athlete trying to rock his track suits to a meet, but you never know nowadays. My favorite show is the JS Wings. I saw two new color ways in this video and it looks like I will have to cop one. My most colorful shoes always seem to be Adidas but they always send the right message, good work Adidas and Jeremy Scott. | The KINGdomArchivesMay 2012 CategoriesAll
