Jackson Green of Grin Style Co. hit NAxBW up with his Summer 2012 lookbook. Green, who you might know from his past brand Mega Mech Apparel, is switching things up this time around. I’m really digging the Keith Haring vibe and the tie-dye gnarjaw is definitely my favorite piece from the drop. Be sure to keep updated with Green’s STORE and TWITTER so you can grab one of these before they’re all gone!
My Top 5 Artists of 2012
5. Lana Del Rey.
This women is everything I’ve every wanted in an artist. A beautiful voice, meaningful lyrics, and an appearance that leaves me at a loss for words. Just look at her, thats enough for you to become a fan. Her debut album “Born To Die”, is a mix of fucked up love songs, and other very visual songs about her life’s experiences. My favorite song “Off To The Races” is about her relationship with her father I think? Or maybe about an older gentlemen lover of her’s. Either way I love her music, her whole album is amazing, not a skip-able song on there. Lana, if you’re reading this I will kiss you one day.
4. Main Attrakionz
Main Attrakionz, or the best duo ever, are some of the best out right now. They’re young, amazing live, and their music is in a league of its own. “Cloud Rap” is filled with dreamy beats from producers like Friend Zone and Clammy Clams, they seriously put on in every track. Also these guys are some of the nicest people I’ve met, super down to earth and really nice guys. 2012 is going to be a big year for these kids who aren’t even allowed to drink legally yet.
Matlock by Vince Staples & Michael Uzowuru
Another banger, courtesy of Staples and Uzowuru. Every time these two link up it seems like something awesome happens. These two need more shine. They are vastly underrated in the game right now, in my humble opinion. Enjoy.
“Lombardi” by Hassani Kwess
I literally just found out about this guy a few minutes ago on twitter and was blown away. I see a lot of low key (low budget) music videos that look like total shite, but this is actually something new and interesting to look at. Kwess brings that soul-warming, old school groove with some shit that you actually have to listen to. I swear I had to hit the replay a few times to catch all of this guy’s cleverness. Kwess appears to have a pretty low key following which is strange because the quality of his tracks is through the roof. Be sure to keep updated and support the homie over at his TWITTER and BANDCAMP.
Gris Apparel Sale
The homie Reid Glaze‘s brainchild Gris Apparel is having a sale on all the stuff from their first collection, G1, today. The pieces are the perfect mix between simplicity and class, and the pins are looking pretty dope as well! Gris is a Dallas-based brand so go on a cop some of this quality gear.

Well Rounded 4 Track 12″
Well Rounded Records just uploaded a teaser mix to their SOUNDCLOUD of some tracks that I guess are going to be released some time in June. Anyways, this mix of low BPM house definitely hits the spot if you’re trying to vibe out in a nomad’s hut in Mongolia on a hot summers day on a xanax. Hope you enjoy the #chillvibes.
Ivan Fucich Prints
Ivan Fucich’s camera broke. This is a bummer because he’s an awesome photographer. But no need to worry, you can help! He’s currently selling 8×12 prints for only $5 a piece to get a little bit of cash to fix up his gear. Above are a few of my favorite shots of Ivan’s, however you can check out all the photos he’s selling over at his TUMBLR. Find it in your heart to help a homie out!
Ghetto Hikes
Sabotage Tribute
In remembrance of MCA of the Beastie Boys, film maker James Winters made up this badass little “Sabotage” tribute video. But instead of the Beastie Boys…it’s toddlers! Bang bang. Check out this butters video and make sure to show Winters some love over at his VIMEO.
