Brett Domino - Justin Timberlake Medley

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 19:43:00 +0000

Bretty Domino is straight GANGSTER. Currently tied with my iPhone app-loving, Beyonce-remakin', Asian sensation, applegirl002 as my favorite toy musicians.

Cupcake Travesty

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 19:38:00 +0000

I hate wasting cupcakes, but if I were to do such an atrocious thing... this is how it'd be done...

M.I.A. - Born Free

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 20:24:00 +0000

I posted this up on my Facebook as soon as it came out and it now looks like Youtube has pulled it from their site. It's unfortunate as the video and message is quite eye-opening. With the recent passing of a RIDICULOUS Arizona bill, the ongoing war on "terror", and overall US sentiment by the rest of the world, M.I.A. went against her club happy bangers and put out a socially relevant record. Big ups to her.

noreply@blogger.com (EL NINO) — Sat, 24 Apr 2010 06:29:00 +0000

Can't wait for May 1 to put these on. Clean on the inside, white on the outside, ice cold soles.......

The Driver

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 01:25:00 +0000

I miss waking up early on Saturday mornings to catch my favorite cartoons. Or better yet, running home after school and catching Voltron or Thundercats. As an adult, when was the last time any of us watched cartoons?

The time has come...

Let's hope it gets on TV soon... check your local listings!

The secret behind Nike Air

noreply@blogger.com (EL NINO) — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 19:26:00 +0000

What a great commercial! Way to go Nike.

Gizmodo: Apple's Next iPhone

noreply@blogger.com (EL NINO) — Tue, 20 Apr 2010 19:56:00 +0000

Man apparently somebody had lost the Iphone 4G prototype and Gizmodo got a hold of it. Can't wait till this comes out! Check out the video for details.

Nike Free-Jay

I want the Nike speakers for my next party...

Alice In Wonderland - iPad Edition

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 16:44:00 +0000

I ain't gonna lie... I was hating on the iPad when it was first announced. But now that it's out and developers are making applications specifically for the iPad... I WANT! I most likely wouldn't get one until it gets a front facing camera though. I mean, how else am I gonna chatroulette?

Developers seem to go out of their way to make the Apple experience as unique as possible when it comes to apps for the Apple line if products. The iPad was positioned as the do-it-all tablet, which includes e-books. E-book readers have been out for a loooong minute, so how come it took until the iPad to see something of these sorts:

Now, there is zero excuse not to read to your kids!

GTA x Google Maps

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 16:36:00 +0000

Ok... maybe it's not an official collab between Rockstar Games, maker of the ever popular Grand Theft Auto series, and Google Maps but check out the video and tell me you'd be able to tell if it wasn't an honest to goodness collaboration between the two companies.

The folks over at Honest Directors whipped up this friggin awesome car chase scene using images from Google Maps which just screams OLD SCHOOL GTA.

New Watches In the Shop

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 23:51:00 +0000

I am HELLA diggin' the new watches that we got up in the shop. This piece here is one of my favorites...

See all the styles and get yours at the Kicks shop!

Unique Domains

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 23:48:00 +0000

I've been racking my brain trying to come up with a domain name for my photography business. Do I just go by my name or do I go with something catchy? Fun or serious? It ain't easy coming up with cool domains or ones that aren't already taken. Thank goodness these companies were able to secure theirs before other's swooped in on them...

Pretty HILARIOUS!

Exit Through the Gift Shop

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 23:44:00 +0000

I can't wait to see this movie. With the rise of so many "street artists" in years recent, we finally get a chance to see the inner workings of the most famous, if not the most infamous, street artist out there: Banksy.

Cypress Hill... They're Baaaaaacckk...

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Fri, 09 Apr 2010 18:08:00 +0000

Well, maybe it's too early to say if they're really back or not but they do have a new track out that definitely pays homage to their Hispanic roots, with Pitbull on the verse and Marc Anthony on the hook.

Remember when we was all goin' Insane in the Membrane back in the day to these guys? These guys help put LA hip-hop on the map!

Nissan Sentra Car Ad

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 17:29:00 +0000

Check out this kick ass commercial for the Nissan Sentra SE-R. Now, we all know the Sentra in it's stock form can't do half the things shown in this video... that's why they used an RC car!! How badass is that!? Now I want an RC car... and helicopter!!

The making-of video is equally badass...

iPhone Musical Genius

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 17:17:00 +0000

I can't stop watching this video. This Korean girl is a beast on the pads... on the iPhone no less!! She has two videos out, Irreplaceable and Poker Face. Her take on Beyonce's hit song is the better of the two in my opinion...

iPad Car Stereo System

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 17:10:00 +0000

It was gonna happen sooner or later... the guys over at SoundMan Car Audio appear to be the first to integrate the brand spankin' new iPad into a car stereo system. The build is still preliminary but works well enough to give you an idea of how it's gonna look and work. I wasn't a fan of the iPad when it was first announced but after seeing all the new apps created specifically for the device... I WANT ONE!

iPhone Font

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 18:23:00 +0000

This is just nuts. This guy here not only bought a whopping 540 apps to make this possible, he made sure all the apps synced up in color to show off his custom font! Pretty amazing indeed but I'm slightly disappointed he skipped the W!

I'm Just a Bill

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 17:59:00 +0000

History in the making folks... healthcare reform has passed! What does this mean to everyone and how does it effect you? We're all guilty of coveting the hottest and latest sneaks, clothes, and cars (I'm guilty of that for sure). Sometimes we gotta take a step back and think about what's important. Now, I'm not sure how the new law will effect taxpayers, immigration, or even healthcare for that matter. Time will tell. Let's hope it's a good thing.

Speaking of coveting the hottest and latest sneaks... make sure you get the AJKOs that El Nino posted the other day. They drop this weekend!!

Now, time for some Schoolhouse Rock!

Dev - Fireball

noreply@blogger.com (YEAHmanh) — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 21:42:00 +0000

I posted this a long time ago on my personal blog but since I'm new to blogging here for the Kicks fam, I had to put y'all up on this... Don't sleep on Dev. Don't even take a nap. She's a fireball...

AJKO's ooooooooooohhhhhhhh!
