BBC x Ice Cream -Winter/Fall Collection 2009

For all your space lovers and skater heads, or fans of anything Pharrell or Nigo do, I have good news. Over this weekend BBC and Ice Cream will release some new stuff from their Winter/Fall Collection. As always some interesting pieces, and signature playful t-shirts.

I remember once upon a time, all I wanted was a BBC or Ice Cream, them shipping charges were telling me to stop dreaming. Anyways above and below are a few items that recently dropped on High Snobiety.

Can't forget about them hats.

Induction To BlakRoc 2.0

Recently my boy, Kwarmz has brought BlakRoc to your attention. Here is an induction to the sound of BlakRoc.

BlakRoc Trailer from Creative Control on Vimeo.

'The Black Keys paired up with hip-hop artists such as Jim Jones, Mos Def, Raekwon, Ol’ Dirty Bastard and a cadre of other stars for a fresh new sound.

BlakRoc was made available November 27th on iTunes and select music retailers worldwide.

Levis x Porter

It’s another feature from the Japanese brand porter, this time round they have collaborated with Levis the world renowned denim brand. This collection is available in a messenger bag as well as tote bag. The bag is black all over but to signify the Levis x Porter collaboration on the Levis you are used to the red label with “Levis” onit however this time round it has “Porter”as always the porter logo can be located on the bag in the corner. This bag will cost you 33,607 yen and if you convert that its £260 :/ I don’t think I will be purchasing this anytime soon as I have bills to pay, but a boy is allowed to dream right?

Louis Vuitton

French fashion label, Louis Vuitton are about to release a pair of kicks which are available in two colour schemes, they are very simple and I could only imagine the price of them when they drop. For those who are into them I’m not sure when they will be released but I will keep you posted.

Naija vs Ghana - The Babatunde Show

This is a lot of stuff. Like very funny. All you Nigerians should be happy, you just made it to the World Cup and now you have this video mocking Ghanaians. Babatunde went in.

5 Things I Can't Get My Head Round

#1.Them X factors parasites still being there and having a chance of winning.

#2. Thierry Henry potentially ruining his reptuation over the blatant 'handball' which set up the goal that sent France to South Africa and Ireland packing, because of a split second, may be viewed as cheat on these shores for ever. So sad

#3. This wolfboy vampire rubbish, 'Twilight' that has girl of all ages swooning and is going to take over the world for the next two weeks. Its not even the attention of the girls that bothers me, I just think everyone is gassed up off the hype.

#4. Can't believe a 50 Cent album came out with such little fanfare, the video with Ne-Yo dropped like a day ago and there (well for me anyway) has no been no presence virally or on the airwaves. Really thought Interscope would push it back again. I've checked 'Before I Self Destruct' is really out. No really it is.

#5. Was about to go with the fact 2009 is almost over but I have and I am sure you will have heard about the Beyonce featuring Gaga 'Video Phone' clip. Madness.

Who Says?

Random I know, but a great song from a great musician. I bring to you John Mayer and 'Who Says'. Enjoy.

WTF Is A Snood?

Apparently this winter, the fashion must have accessory for men and women is a 'snood'. A snood is a like a merge between a scarf and hood, it is worn round your neck and was seen quite prominently in a few fashion shows over the Fashion week calendar recently. Burberry seem to be the brand that is most excited about snoods, displaying them on many of their catwalk shows.














Below, a couple of snoods from Burberry.

They have been seen everywhere on the runways, so it is only a matter of time before we seem them in high streets on campuses.
























Examples of when snoods are worn as headscarves.

Any opinions people?

Blak Roc

Music mogul and Ex Rocafella head honcho, Dame Dash is still running with the Roc. This time its a musical project, he is behind working with American rock-blues group 'The Black Keys' and merging them with 11 rappers and singers of his preference. Think like a rocky kind of soulful blues. So far he has recruited Jim Jones, Mos Def, Raekwon, Nikki Wray and the album also features the likes of Billy Danze from M.O.P, Pharoahe Monch and Q-Tip, Ludacris, RZA and NOE from Byrd Gang.

Very exciting, the fusion of styles, the instrumentation, the mix of rappers. Check out the trailer, basically a introduction of the project, Blak Roc and looking at some segments of recording the project.
