Married to the Mob 2009 Summer Collection

New York City-based women’s label Married to the Mob unveils their Summer 2009 Collection dubbed Lost Summer. The Most Official Bitches had long time friend and MTTM photographer, David “Shadi” Perez, shoot MOB’s very own Sarah “Sweet 16″ McSweeney for the woodsy-inspired lookbook, as only he could. Lost Summer is meant to epitomize that Summer every girl has where she is bordering the transition between being a girl and womanhood. The Summer where she has her first kiss, and romance, and broken bone, and every inevitable experimentation that makes the metamorphosis so unforgettable. The Summer that will never be erased from her memory. Married to the Mob’s Leah explains: “I wanted to create a collection that was nostalgic of the Summer, that totally turned me into a bad girl. First kiss, first joint, first 40 ounce. Might sound silly but it changed my life. Every girl had that summer. If they didn’t then they missed out.”

Today we give you a look at another popular high top model from the Y-3 Fall/Winter 2009 Collection. The Honja Hi comes in three colorways - black/blue/white striped, black/white and brown. The black and the brown colorways are very solid. We like the used look on the brown premium leather and the perforated parts on the black as well. The striped colorway asks for a little more attention. Look out for these later this summer.

    Rapper “Dolla” Killed in Beverly Center

    The Los Angeles Times reports that Atlanta-based rapper Dolla (né Anthony Burton II) was shot and killed outside of Los Angeles’ Beverly Center shopping mall just after 3 p.m. PDT on Monday. Though the Los Angeles Police Dept. would not confirm the identity of the victim, the Times reports that Dolla’s publicist, Sue Vannasing, confirmed to the newspaper that her client was shot outside the mall, while waiting with fellow rapper D.J. Shabbazz. Dolla is believed to be in his early twenties.

    The shooting reportedly occurred during a group melee, possibly also involving a knife. Police have detained a person of interest, whom the LAPD would not name and said had not yet been arrested. Dolla is perhaps best known for the single “Feelin’ Myself,” which was featured in the 2006 dance film Step Up.

    Musically In-Tuned: Jaspects



























    "Polkadotted Stripes"

    With only one year in, THE YARD Green Carpet had the humble privilege of hosting Drake's concert May 2nd at The Loft in Atlanta (YGCE footage is on thee way, be patient). This event was like none other though because on this rare occasion I was not only colloborating with our client, but I am a fan of his work as well. Plus, as a headliner, he sold out the venue in less than 10 hours; that's dumb stupid. It even made me flashback to when the Godfather of Rap (Hova) sold out the Garden in no time.

    But in addition to Drizzy & guest appearances by: Trey Songz, Usher, & even Chuckie (12 years old?) of Young Money, was another unexpected surprise; Jaspects. Walking onto the Green Carpet in their coordinated attire, I wondered who these guys were? I heard of the name and the fact that they are Morehouse Alum; but, who were they & what does their music sound like? Young Money (that is Mark Anthony Green) dropped the line, "This is Jaspects; they are ridiculously talented!"

    Unfortunately, so consumed by working and the hype of Drake actually performing, I wasn't able to really listen to their set. I was informed however, that they were not booed the entire time like the 1st performer (isn't he lucky I forgot his name). But as the night wrapped & I was headed to Fellini's for a late night bite with THE YARD team and BC&D creators, I peeped a CD in the backseat with stripes & hint of polkadots along one band. I thought I love the perks of becoming a Mogul. But honestly, I was gratified that I was able to get a copy of their 4th album Polkadotted Stripes.

    Blown away! I did not skip one of the 11 tracks when I opened my ears. It was on repeat all day as I crammed for Finals during these past beautiful day in Atlanta. It even accompanied me through downtown and midtown as I cruised through Atlanta. What's more, the young lady passenger side noted on how impressed she was by this grain of music. Jaspects was right on time. On the brink of searching for some divergence from Drake's ridiculous cuts, I found what the perfect left-field outlet.

    Jaspect's Polkadotted Stripes completely challenges the status quo of music on many levels. This album is the definition of eclectic. While heavily dripped in jazz, it incorporates splashes of hip hop, rap, rock, and many dashes of techno. And although the auto-tune feature is becoming a little dry, Jaspects does it more than justice on Like A Drum. Janelle Monae even makes an appearance in their opening cut that is bananas. Then with cuts like Find My Way To Love, you would think Jaspects is playing live in a ballroom and you have the baddest chick with a tat on her ankle and a red backless dress on (shouts out to Amber Rose). But anyway, this talented group does an excellent job at intersecting many breeds of music. Polkadotted Stripes transcends any proverbial classification within a particular genre. With tracks like Polkadotted Stripe and Play On, I could see why Drake or members from his camp enlisted this group to open up for him. In fact, I could see Drake remixing a few of these tracks & pulling out another hit like he did on Colin Munroe's Cannonball (which is crack).

    So trust, if you're looking for some great music that moves along its own wavelength, but has so many spicy qualities, Jaspect's Polkadotted Stripes is the way to go. Be ready to open those ears to some real music. You can check the group out on www.myspace.com/jaspects or follow them on www.twitter.com/jaspects.

    Nike Blazer Hi “Green Spark”

    The Nike Blazer Hi “Green Spark” is done up in a bright “Green Spark” with red accents that has been dubbed Pimento. Like many Blazers from Nike Skateboarding, this particular colorway receives a leather treatment on the Swoosh, while the rest of the upper is done up in a mash up of nubuck and suede. A nice looking shoe that should hit stores towards the end of summer.

    Fashionably Aware: Bread, Cheese & Doe

    BC&D Shoots: Lauren Morton from BC&D on Vimeo.


    Since a young age I have always wanted to be fashionably inclined. Void of a real sense of personal style and fashion intelligence though, I fell victim to fad based clothing in high school. Yet as time has gone by, I have traveled to many fashionably fertile cities and read much literature on what real fashion is and can be; BIGGER THAN THE CITY...
    At this point in my life, being swagged out is not something I desire. Its about being clean. This is accomplished by means of simplicity and a dash of spicyness. That's how I know I've become guilty of being FLY (yes, the man has gotten confident)!
    With that said, the fashon line of BC&D (which is unisex) has definitely earned the official cosign of THE YARD Mogul...
    Straight from the creators mouths:
    BC&D is dedicated to providing the best clothing humanly possible... [it] is dedicated to reaching out to the masses, just like the slogan says we want to be everywhere, “From the soup kitchen to the boutique.” Bread Cheese & Doe’s apparel is inspired by the variety of styles globally...the everyday hustler, skateboarder, graffiti artists, the hip-hop and punk rock heads, as well as the everyday Joe. We cover a broad spectrum of styles and look forward to having individuals of different demographics, keyword: individuals, wearing our brand. BC&D is more than just a clothing line, we are a culture, dedicated to preserving the freshness and living for the “Bread, Cheese, & Doe”…

    Nike Air Yeezy Black/Pink














    Literally, hours separate us from the release of the Black/Pink Nike Air Yeezy. Lineups are deep nationwide for the second colorway of the monumental project between Nike Sportswear and Kanye West.

    Slightly different from the first colorway that released, the Black/Pink Yeezy features the repeating “Y” stamping across the back of the shoes in addition to the strap and around the laces. Something also unique to this colorway is the crease-proof black neoprene upper and lush grey suede toe cap.

    Color accents make their way to the shoe by way of a pink liner and lace lock as well as the unmistakable glow-in-the-dark outsole.
