Wednesday wake up songs to wake up too.

The History of the Boom Box

One of the most iconic symbols of Hip Hop, the Boom Box, may not be able to compete with today’s digital format, but it is still loved and appreciated by collectors alike.

Vigor: The March 2009 line up.

Evolved is proud to sponsor another month of Vigor at The Cove in Brooklyn, NY.
For more info follow the man himself, DJ FullTimeFun.
For some sweet pics of previous events and other cool imagery check out the woman herself, Lilly Frances.

Dj Full Time Fun,

Street cred, there is an app for that!

Metro PCS, for those who may not be familiar, are the unofficial wireless company of the ‘hood’ because I have honestly never seen them set up a location anywhere else.  Hey, someone has to be the provider of  no frills, non contract, burner phones used for “business” purposes, in order avoid that messy paper trail.  In recent events, Metro PCs commissioned celebrity tattoo artist Mr. Cartoon and graffiti legends Cope 2 and Sen 2 to bomb the windows of three chains in the Bronx and Harlem, NYC.

The Lost Art of Inglourious Basterds

In what’s likely to be the only art exhibition I’d ever be pumped about going to, a series of talented artists have banded together to create unique poster art for Inglorious Basterds and compiled them to be shown at the Upper Playground Gallery in Los Angeles tomorrow. Not only that, but you can buy prints of each poster and they’ll be numbered and signed by Quentin Tarantino himself. All money goes to Haiti! Good lord, this is the greatest art show of all time.

Wear & Care

The wash labels are on your clothes for a reason, please read them. Your threads are as much an investment as they are an expression of style.  However, a lot of us still look like we’re beating them against a rock along a river bank.   So we share with you some useful excerpts from the MSN  article,

The 20 tips to make your wardrobe last.

5. Launder whites after every wear. It’s tempting to put a white blouse back into the closet after a spill-free wearing. After all, it looks spotless. But “body oils and perspiration, along with other time-released stains (like perfume, white wine, and oil splatters), will start to give a once-bright white a yellowish tint,” says Steve Boorstein, developer of the DVD Clothing Care (Day Light, $20).

6. But don’t overwash darks. Boorstein blames frequent washings for faded clothing. Black pants, in particular, can be worn several times before laundering. For best results when you wash, run darks on a short cycle in cold water and let them air-dry. Blot any stains, since rubbing will create a lighter spot.

7. Beware the dryer. “Excessive heat makes fibers brittle, causing the fabric to break down,” says Boorstein. Combat this by removing lightweight garments, like T-shirts and camisoles, and anything containing spandex (which can lose elasticity over time when exposed to too much heat) 10 minutes earlier than heavy garments, such as jeans and sweatshirts. “Most of the damage is done in the last 10 minutes of drying,” says Boorstein.

9. Iron clothing inside out. “Ironing can fade dark colors as well as create shine marks on fabrics with sheen, like gabardine, acetate, and polished cottons,” says Chris Allsbrooks, a textile analyst with the Dry Cleaning & Laundry Institute, in Laurel, Maryland. Avoid damage by using the appropriate heat setting and pressing the item on the reverse side. Or use a cloth between garment and iron. And, adds Boorstein, “never iron a crease on a black garment―it can leave a permanent line.”

13. Zip up to avert snags. Your clothing goes into the wash perfectly intact. Later you notice a mysterious pull. “The teeth of zippers (especially those made of metal, as on jeans) or any kind of hook closure is typically the culprit,” says Boorstein. Next time close all zippers and clasps before tossing clothes into the washing machine (or, better yet, the hamper).

19. Wash (unstained) jeans every third wear. “Most people wash their jeans too often,” says Melissa Ladines, a fit expert for Levi Strauss. Launder them inside out and in cold water. Obsessed with preserving the deep dark rinse? Skip the clothes dryer and let them air-dry, or take them to a dry cleaner.

Updates from Va.

With all this snow blanketing Virginia and the lack of our towns snow removal abilities. I have taken to new hobbies that include hair farming.

If this was all I had to report than I’d be happy,however after braving the negative windchill to ride the white banks in Waynesboro with friend of the company Patrick, We quickly became delirious with the cold and decided the only way to defeat it was by spending cash at the tattoo shop. The photo speaks for itself.

Confessions of an Insominac

This week, we been hashing out a few ideas for the mix tape cover design of company friend and artist, Joe Columbo. So far, we’re still stuck between a creative rock and visual hard place.  However, we know a few things we want to avoid. Check out the  Street Level, “10 Hip-Hop Album Clover Cliches”.   My personal favorite Hip Hop album covers is a toss up between A Tribe Called Quest’s: “Midnight Marauders” and NWA: “Niggaz4Life”.
