November 9th, 2007 Lupe Fiasco :: Matthew Santos :: Superstar

**Alright, it looks like Viacom forced YouTube to pull the video so for now you are gonna have to watch it here:

You need to watch this:

Directed by Hype Williams

Take just one verse from this song and you will see the depth of Lupe’s work:

“and then it hit me, standin outside of heaven waitin for God to
come and get me. Im too uncouth, un-schooled to the rules and too gum-shoe
too much of a new comer and too un-cool like
Shadow and Lavelle, I battle wit it well”

…if you wiki DJ Shadow and Lavelle, you will see that they were a part of a group called U.N.K.L.E. (un-cool), and while both have achieved a good/great deal of success, they never quite fit in to a particular genre, much like it seems Lupe feels.

November 9th, 2007 Charles + Marie :: AMT Shoppers :: Designer Tote

(Sorry for the poor image)

From Charles & Marie:

OK, so we are all for reusable shopping bags, but please people, why can’t they look any better??? Have you seen how ugly some of those bags are? Why can’t green look fabulous?

Well, help has arrived at our front door today, as we have just received the first batch of AMT Shoppers. These shoppers are made of sturdy canvas with a print of a somewhat quintessential tote (you’ve probably seen it before) on one side and our favorite little clutch on the other. So, whilst we might be out getting the groceries – we look pretty damn cute doing it!
