Directed by Swiss photographer Yann Gross, Uganda Skateboard Union is a short documentary about skateboarding in Uganda, which is rad on about 12 levels. Watching the video, it’s crazy to see the kids skateboarding on dirt roads and lots, and some asphalt roads with potholes bigger than IED craters. Filmed whie Gross was making a […]

I’ve got a feeling Dr. Martens are going to milk the hell outta celebrate their 50th Anniversary with applied gusto. You remember their 50th Anniversary 1460 “Worn” series, right? Well this time Dr Martens have teamed up with Commune De Paris, revisioning their same iconic 1460 boot. Well it’s not really a boot — more […]

Now we’re not usually down to promote any “worn”, pre-stressed or frayed new products — it’s usually a pretty shite and corny technique in my limited world view.

And while that’s already newsworthy (only 263 no-hitters have ever been thrown in the history of Major League Baseball), what is really extraordinary is that Mr. Ellis apparently threw the game whilst […]

I don’t care if Lil Wayne has Top 10 hits, that dude is anytihng but mainstream. Whether its his Predator-like looks, copious face tattoos, gravelly wheeze or his brilliant metaphor-loaded rhymes, the guy is the antithesis of the brainless saccharine pop star. Who woulda thunk the guy who blew up as one of the Hot […]
