NEXT WEEK: Been a little while since a member of the WU graced our shores. Amped for Ghost and as an added incentive there’s mad support from the homies @peace and a whole host of locals. Tickets are selling fast and I believe are on their last run in Wellington so don’t sleep…

Mayer Hawthorne is a sneaker head for sure, he put his top 25 on twitter today. Thought i’d give ya’ll a sneak peak.
Head over here to read the entire thing, and see which shoe made number one. This is what he said about number 2. The iconic Max 95
Mayer says: ”Man, just completely its own shoe like there is nothing else like it. The gradient is such an iconic thing in the sneaker world. I remember I sold my original pair to my college roommate and they were all beat up and used and he still bought them. I was a broke college kid just trying to get a new pair.”

I’ve been bumping this mixtape for too long not to post it up. Action Bronson with “Blue Chips” Produced entirely by Party Supplies who is a fellow Queens resident. The witty Lyrics and super stripped back, loop style beats have had this taking pride of place in my playlist. Guest’s include Mayhem Lauren and Roc Marciano. These 3 are probably my favourite MC’s right bout now. Peep the Video for “Hookers at the Point”

I’m a big fan of what Taz Arnold is doing. Giving that musical envelope a much needed shove. Be sure to check the interview with him over at Vice too.
Mykki Blanco is definitely one of the more interesting figures in the whole innanet rap$ game at the moment. It’s as if rap got its own Marilyn Manson or something. The whole persona aside though, this track is DARK & HEAVY. The kind of rap they play in the elevator on the way to hell.
RAJA (or the artist formerly known as InfinitiRock) on the official Jonti remix. He so flaa
New EP from kiwi sex-pat Leno Lovecraft!
