“A few weeks back, Hypebeast asked me to answer a similarly-themed Q&A, but I failed to submit it in time, so I thought I’d voice my opinions on the blog.  But as I sit here, backspacing over 750 words of recession digression, I realize that all I was doing was contributing to a greater problem, one in which the economy continues its spiraling malaise, churned by public fear, ignorance, and empty complaints.

I’m sure all of you are tired of hearing about it, so I’m not quite gonna go there. But I will say this.  Times are tough, and times are getting worse.  I’m not an economist, but from what I understand, this isn’t ending anytime soon.  And so you will find that over the next year, your beloved Streetwear will start trimming the fat to survive.  That means less stores, far fewer brands, reduced variety from your favorite labels.  If you’ve been paying attention, you may have already started to notice it now.  It’s Back to Basics, and not in a trend-forecasted “edgy” way, but out of a raw, desperate necessity.  In 2009, it’s all about bare-bones, core, essential streetwear, minus the gratuitous fluff.  (Which, if you’re seeing it my way, is a very good thing).

And so, for the sake of us, our peers in this industry, and fellow fans of the culture, it is up to you, the customer, to continue to support, encourage, and contribute to the craft.  For the most part, streetwear is orchestrated by independents.  We’re not cushy corporate honchos or veteran, spectacled businessmen behind mahogany desks.  Most of us got into this because we were following a dream, that up ’til now has supported our livelihood…  but as the financial ground dries up around us, it chokes the creative spirit that depended on it to survive, and thrive.  And that’s where it comes back to you, the customer, to keep us breathing.

Because you see, streetwear has always been about the customer, the people.  That’s where it started from and this economy is showing us that that is where it ends.  It’s back to you, to make us relevant, cool, and at the very least, existent.  And what do you get out of this?  You will find us all working, thinking, and creating a lot harder to keep you engaged, dedicated to pushing ourselves and streetwear forward.

In the hopes that in the end, we will all win.

In my eyes.. the greatest skate video of all time.. even tho this is from circa 98.. it still does not even seem outdated.. from start to finish.. ur eyes are glued to the tv.. even dudes who dont like skating appreciate this video.. and i bet everyone who owns it.. paused it so they can read wut that flashing red sign in the top left corner says.. “THIS SHITS GOT POP”.. for those that never did lol..

Me and my brother would seriously watch this atleast weekly..

I was tryin to decide which video to post and show.. but i thought why not go with the man.. this wouldn’t have happened without him..

Peep this.. So dope..

Ever wondered if Wu-Tang members played nba who they’d be?“Raekwon as Baron Davis (PG)
Every team needs a playmaker who not only talks the good talk but also walks the walk. Rae and BD share that common trait of putting their mouth where their money is. Rae is arguably Wu-Tang’s most vocal member; Baron supplements his 17 Points and 7 Assists per game average with a healthy dose of vocal leadership.

ODB as Allen Iverson (G)
AI and ODB have more than their 6′0″ height and knack for acronyms in common. Both men share a resentment for conformity. Dirty tossed conventional rhyming out the window but still showcased a raw, innovative approach to emceeing. And who needs team practice to become one of the game’s greatest players? AI’s 27.7 points per game average is third all-time behind MJ and Wilt Chamberlain.

GZA as Dr. J (SF)
Just as Dr. J revolutionized basketball with flashy dunks and smart baseline moves, GZA/Genius helped propel East-Coast hip-hop with his cerebral rhymes and compelling stories. Both men are blessed with an outstanding sense of imagination that earned them the respect of peers.

Ghostface as Karl Malone (PF)
If Ghostface Killah’s menacing rhymes were basketball moves they would resemble Karl Malone’s flying elbows. Dangerous play aside, Malone was nicknamed The Mailman because he of his consistency — he always delivered. Can you think of a more consistent MC than Ghostface Killah?

Method Man as Shaquille O’Neal (C)
One of them is a veteran MC, the other should never be allowed near a mic except for the sole purpose of saying “Tell me how my ass taste.” And when it comes to individual accomplishment, no one knows it better than these two — Shaq as a 1st overall pick who went on to win 3 NBA Finals MVP and Meth as Wu’s first solo star with 3 Platinum-certified albums under his belt.

RZA as Phil Jackson (Coach)
Every great team needs a visionary leader steering them wisely to the path of success. Just as Phil Jackson’s triangle offense has been winning championships since the 90s, RZA’s unparalleled production has served as a template for Wu’s success since 1993. Though separated by 24 years, they both share an appreciation for meditation. And just like the teams they lead, Phil and RZA are motivated by an insatiable appetite for success.
