“You gotta know when you can win & when you can lose, but you gotta make sure that you fight the good fight.” - Bun B

He’s back! Maestro has been busy traveling around Europe and I’m hoping I can meet this dude when he comes to London. Anyway the new episode of show, Maestro Knows just dropped and in this episode he meets UGK rapper, Bun B. They check out Goode Company BBQ, the H-Town Sneaker Summit, Chris Paul & others, while Bun speaks on the diverse culture of Houston & his upcoming album Trill O.G. Video after the cut.

I stumbled across this great collection of street style photos at the Milan Fashion Week by photographer Tommy Ton. Honestly, I’ve never seen so much dope swagger in one place, these people really know how to style themselves/each other. I want/need the jacket the dude in the photo above is wearing, the color coordination is on-point, great matching of the gloves, elbow patches and the collar. After the jump for more photos.

I was watching TV with my little sister, by little I mean 17 year old sister when this came on and sh*t it’s pretty effective and scary. The  ‘Why Let Drink Decide?‘ campaign is aimed at Parents who have teenage children as they’re most likely to try it. They want parents to know that it’s never too late or early to talk to their children about the effects of alcohol. It’s a really powerful campaign created by W+K London for DSCF. So I guess I better warn my sister before she turns 18, uh oh. Check it out above and more info after the cut.

Slam City Skates just opened a second outlet, a concession store in the basement of the newly relocated WESC Store on Carnaby Street. To celebrate the opening of this new store, WESC and Slam City have teamed up to bring you 2 rounds of giveaways this Thursday (28th January). Trust me, I’m definitely going to make the effort to be there; freebies after all! ya’ll have nothing to lose.

So the Skins cast have reprised their roles for a fourth season of the controversial show! When this show first came out, I used to watch it religiously- it was the first of its kind. They took what we did (still do on a sly) and took it to the extreme which made it jokes to watch.

All you fresh kids should go over to Shoreditch and checkout Wholesome, a brand new streetwear store that just been open for just over a month. The design of the store itself is nice but anyway, it’s all about the products they have on offer. They have a good range of American streetwear brands such as 10 DEEP, Crooks & Castles, Mishka, Rogue Status, Staple, Supra, The Hundreds and many more. I personally haven’t popped down to the store but I will do sometime this week, they have a few good deals going, more info on them & location after the jump.
