What To Read: In Between - Guy Bourdin
Guy Bourdin was far ahead of his time as a fashion photographer. His vivid, imaginative, and intelligent outlook on fashion photography are just a few reasons why he is championed as the best (arguably of course). The latest work from his vault "In Between" was published by Steidldangin and edited by Shelly Verthime earlier this year.
I recently ordered this book online and eagerly await its arrival. It will surely be filled with incredible imagery and Bourdin's signature wit. So if you enjoy fashion photography and love the work of the greats, this is a must have.

Nike Zoom Kobe VI Grinch Edition
Please refrain from adjusting the color on your LED's and LCD's tomorrow while watching the Lakers vs. Heat game, all is fine. Its just the Nike Zoom Kobe VI Grinch Edition shoes. Kobe will attempt to play Grinch tomorrow and rob Lebron James and the Miami Heat of a Christmas Day win against his Lakers. We'll see if the Black Mamba and his scaly snake-like shoes are enough to lift his team over the streaking Heat. Should be a good one!

Update: This shoe will be available at select retailers on 12/26.

Video: Big K.R.I.T. FT. Curren$y, Killa Kyleon - Moon & Stars (Remix)
A few rising stars in the south get together for a fresh remix to Big K.R.I.T.'s "Moon & Stars". New Orleans Spitta (Curren$y) and Houston's own Boss Hogg Outlaw Killa Kyleon lend their vocal talents to this laid back riders anthem. This joint takes me back to growing up on the southside of Houston, Texas. Those were the days...

Including behind-the-scenes visuals, interviews with cast and crew, the book celebrates this incredible film and its impact on African American culture. Do the right thing and head over to Amazon to pick up a copy today.

Weekend Jam: Outkast - Benz or Beamer
In anticipation of the Big Boi show in Austin Saturday we have a throwback Outkast joint for you today! From 1995's New Jersey Drive Soundtrack here is "Benz or Beamer". One of our favorite ATLiens jams from back in the day.
You know its vintage Kast when 3000 is rocking the kangol with no shirt and Big Boi is in a Braves hat and a jersey. And oh yeah, ATL just invented the "Bankhead Bounce". Those were the days...
