Little Brother Announces Final Album

February 9th, 2010 | By Isis


On April 20th they’ll be releasing there final album. he name LeftBack has floated around in the past as the name of a future EP from LB , but this will be a full length LP. “I didn’t want our last record to be a bunch of second-rate material,” says Phonte . “I wanted to walk away from Little Brother knowing that I gave our fans all that I had to give, and said everything I wanted to say. With LeftBack, I’ve done that.” As far as producers go, look for appearances from Khrysis, Denaun Porter, Zo!, Symbolic One, J. Bizness, and King Karnov. Before you ask, no, 9th Wonder will not be on the album. Emcees on the album will include Torae, Truck North, Jozeemo, Chaundon, Median, with Darien Brockington and Yahzarah assisting on vocals. The album will come with four official music videos (all shot and directed by Matt Koza). Says Big Pooh , “Three albums, three mixtapes, one video. It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense in this day and age. We have always lacked in the visual department, and I think it will be refreshing to finally offer the people those visuals.” To top it off, LeftBack will also come with a limited edition DVD full of exclusive bonus material. As the release date approaches expect more details, including tour info. via Okayplayer

Hennessy Celebrates Its Heritage

February 8th, 2010 | By Isis

It turns out that Hennessy isn’t just the preferred beverage of African Amerians for taste alone. Hennessy is also making stirdes to give back. They have released a limited edition bottle. The Hennessy V.S Historic Limited Edition bottles will be individually numbered.  Only 300,000 (750ml) collector’s item bottles have been produced and will be available for sale throughout the U.S. on Martin Luther King Jr. Day – January 18, 2010 – through the end of Black History Month –  February 28, 2010. To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the National Urban League, Hennessy will donate a percentage of the proceeds to NUL for every bottle of Historic Limited Edition Hennessy V.S sold. The unique design combines the iconic shape of the V.S bottle with the graphical elements of the original 1865 label of Trois Etoiles (Three Stars) Cognac — the name under which V.S was first known.  As the cognac visionary, Hennessy was the first in the industry to sell its wares in bottles, in addition to casks. Each of the 300,000 Limited Edition Hennessy V.S bottles are uniquely numbered and celebrate a proud history with the community, including its long-standing relationship with the National Urban League (NUL), a historic civil rights organization dedicated to economic empowerment in order to elevate the standard of living in historically underserved urban communities.

The slip ons come in some funky color ways that include vibrant neon hues. Converse Japan really outdid themselves and created shoes that speak volumes. via SM (more…)
