Designer and Original Fake founder, KAWS, has an obvious advantage over most streetwear brands out there, he can doctor up his photos. For the Fall/Winter lookbook, the artist drew his signature graphics all over the line, giving it some much needed pizzaz.
Congratulations are in order for Nate Hill. The artist’s Candy Crack delivery service was profiled in the Daily News, where he managed to anger an old lady, baffle the vice president of a substance abuse center, and force a police source to fantasize about arresting him: “It’s just candy. Unfortunately, being criminally stupid is not illegal.” |NYDN|

On September 27th, Germans will vote to elect members of the Bundestag. The environmental Gruene (Green) Party holds the fewest seats amongst the five major German parties. Chancellor Angela Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union, or Black Party, holds the most. So, the local Greenies in Kaarst erected these posters all over town featuring a white woman caressing a black woman’s fine ass with the headline: “The only reason to choose Black.” Conservatives, liberals, and especially local black leaders were not amused. The Green Party recently removed the posters, and issued this statement: Read more »
After serving more than three decades in prison, the woman who tried to assassinate President Gerald Ford and failed has been released. In 1975, Lynette ‘Squeaky’ Fromme dressed like a nun and pulled out a .45 Colt semi-automatic pistol on Ford, but couldn’t blast him because there were no rounds in the chamber—total amateur. In addition to her presidential aspirations, Fromme was a dedicated member of the Manson Family and proved to be far deadlier with a piece of fruit than she was with a gun: Read more »
Instead of focusing on the real cause of a fatal crash that claimed the lives of way too many people on the Taconic State Parkway, NYC’s sensationalist tabloid continues to try and link the driver’s impairment to weed and not the 10 shots of vodka or more she consumed. |NYP|

Oh wow. It’s like Iceberg all over again, but with Muppets instead of Looney Tunes. If these $357 sweaters by designer Jean Charles de Castelbajac actually sell, someone should totally cut Supreme a check. |Hypebeast|
Tommy Benton is a Republican’s Republican. He’s from the deep fried South, completely outside of the mainstream, half-way crazy, and supports corporal punishment for those who come in contact with the evil weed. The sharp minded stoners over at N.O.R.M.L. got a hold of an email the right wing representative from Georgia sent to a constituent that advocates “caning” smokers and “executing” dealers. No, really, that’s his official position. He even wants to toss out the criminal American justice system and adopt a zero tolerance policy like Singapore, writing: Read more »
Back a few years ago when he could still afford a Range Rover, rap mogul Damon Dash was shelling out millions to advertise Roc-A-Fella properties in Hip Hop magazine XXL. What kind of coverage does a buy like that get? Depends. When blindly filling out insertion orders, all he received was a bunch of gossip items, but the minute he complained and threatened to pull ad dollars, the mag actually gave him the cover along with Cam’ron. Then Editor-in-Chief, Elliott Wilson, was fully complicit in the shady dealings and wrote this nonsense in an attempt to justify the purchased cover story while not alienating BFF Jay-Z: Read more »
