Diddy has a tendency to have his hands all over the place and this was no different. Peep the “Diddybeats” a high performance ear-bud headphones from Dre’s already popular Beats by Dre. They describe them as being for man who appreciates the finer things and they mean it. These will set you back $150. Get em here
Riccardo Tisci for GIVENCHY
There has been alot of buzz about the shirt Kanye West wore to the recording of Micheal Jackson’s remake of “We are the World” I’m a pretty big fan of plaid but they took in to another level with the hardware embellishments ! No word on the price but i know its right off the runway from Givenchy’s 2010 Spring/Summer Menswear collection.
and is it just me or does Nicole Schwarzenegger kinda favor Roselyn Sanchez

“Coldest Winter” – Kanye West (video)
First time hearing this song back when Mr. West dropped 808 Heartbreak, I honestly loved it, it was something new to my ears and to the hip hop, rap, pop, or ‘whatever you want to call it’ game. It’s been some time since that track hit waves and for this video to come out caught me a little off guard. Directed by Nabil, a great artist, this video has its quality. Many may think “my, what a strange and eerie video!” well, did you really think art would be missing from a piece produced for Kanye? Everyones a critic, and with that said, some of the comments I’ve read this morning consisted of “WTF?” “He did give his soul to the devil” and “This isn’t hip hop”. How judgmental. haha ! Then again, people will always be people. Let’s try something different today, let’s see beauty in a different light and past what we see with our naked eye.
Editors Pick: Track of the week 2
Today, which marks a new edition of Editors Pick: Track of The Week, I’ve decided to take it to the streets, to the hive where the WU reside. Well, not exactly, see the trio have yet to call themselves anything and probably won’t (Meth, Ghost, Rae *hint hint), but for now I will call them the “Tré of WU”. This weeks pick is “Our Dreams” – Method Man, Raekwon, and Ghostface Killah, which carries royalty, featuring a looped sample from “We’re Almost There” the first track on MJ’s fourth solo album Forever, Michael . This track hit the net late January and the anticipation is killing, but it is good to know that “Wu-Massacre” drops March 30, 2010 along with Drake’s “Thank Me Later” and Erykah Badu’s “New Amerykah, Part II: Return Of The Ankh” (which features “Jump In the Air (Stay There)” last weeks Editors Pick: Track of the Week). For us Wu fans this release is a big deal, I mean, how long have we been waiting? sheesh ! but thanks to the recent “Avenging Eagles” mixtape (presented by DJ Mathematics, Def Jam, & Wu-Tang), waiting hasn’t been so bad. I’ve left you with the artwork and tracklist for Wu-Massacre, as well as the behind the scenes footage for “Our Dreams” below; enjoy !
