Spiz'ikes in any colorway can do no wrong. But the Black and Gold definately
stands out as a more mature spizike in a long line of colorways. I got no word on availability and no word on small sizes but i'll keep you posted.
In 2007, way down in the cultured and highly underrated Australian outbacks, Freestyle4 Entertainment [ a collective of 4 women driven to promote, support & represent Hip Hop in Australia & beyond ] and the Melbourne Music Academy presented the international B-girl competition titled, "She Got Game." Being that the event was a success, this Saturday, May 17th, it will all go down again. Just like last year, the event, sponsered by Australian water company NutrientWater, is all ages & will be going down @ R.M.I.T. [ Royal Melbourne Institue of Technology ] University's Storey Hall from 12-5pm. Tickets are AUD $20 presale, AUD $25 at the door, AUD $10 for children under 12 years old.
They upped the ante this year giving away AUD $8000 in cash prizes [$7,479American], 3gs up from last years AUD $5000 in cash prizes [$4,674 American], to the winners.
Last year's champions were the Street Masters Crew from where?! MIAMI BABY. Gotta show that HOMETEAM love. Beta will be out there once again but this time as a judge and to talk to the kiddies in a youth Hip Hop Forum.
If i had my pennies stacked I'd be on my way right now. Unlike most events that go down, this one is ALL FOR THE LOVE OF HIP HOP. Can't hurt that it's all girls too. (: I'd love to see what everyone will be rocking.
Randumb @ She Got Game 2009?
... maybe.
For more information on this year and last year's event check out:
SHE GOT GAME. Also, read up on some of this years competitors, here.

So on May 31st we will see the Reebok x Bodega Escape Pack drop at Bodega.
(6 clearway st.).
The Escape Pack was inspired by the independently run bus lines that link Boston's Chinatown to New Yorks Chinatown. The route is detailed on the ankle collar of the shoe.
Be ready to drop $200 for these. And if you get lucky you might be able to catch the 1 out of the 100 they'll be releasing with the GOLDEN TICKET upgrade. No, its not to the chocolate fatory but it WILL give you a plane ticket to anywhere in the US. So i mean if you do wanna go see willy wonka be my guest.
They got BDGA stiched on tha back in bold red letters and got a nice jade n charcoal colorway. There are various things included in the pack and if you ARE the lucky one that gets the upgrade you'll also get a suitcase filled with past limited releases from reeboks.
I dont know if i can, but im a pump fan so expect these to be RANDUMB property soon.
DS all the way baby.
Get the fuck at us.
Enjoy the visuals.

Being such a huge fan of the Supra Skytops
I gotta say these are my next pair
Only releasing them in limited quantities.
Only 11 retailers in the US will have 30 pairs.
Theyre called the "413 Silver" or just "413s" after the store Factory 413 thats in LA. Release date is May 10th.
Make sure to cop your pair here in MIAMI at the MIA Skate Shop. [:
*excuse all the posts in one day yall. kinda got a lot to say. (:
Video In My Backyard [VIMBY], a site dedicated to capturing young lifestyle and culture all across the US, has teamed up with Puma to produce a five part webisode series about the beginnings of hip hop and to discuss how Puma [esp, the Clydes] were THE shoes to rock back then.
Part 1: Fab 5 Freddy [og YO! MTV Raps host] discusses the beginnings hip hop and how it shook up the music scene back in the late 70s, early 80s. It's really interesting to watch someone who experienced it first hand describe that era cuz you can still their face light up [even through the shades, I saw it!]. It's like talking about your first love. The first time you ever felt that feeling; it'll always bring you joy to reminisce.

world
get tha facts
The Cyclone that hit Myanmar in Thailand has reached a death toll of
22,000 and could quite possibly hit 50,000.
There is a threat of an imposed long term food shortage because the
cyclone wiped out their rice plantations.
so get in touch with red cross and see what you can do

other people would do the same for you
so lets get on that shit
alright

so yesterday as im sure alotta you know
(even if you didnt wanna know)
was the Kanye West Glow in the Dark tour
and it hit Miami like
a Tyson punch
everyone came out i think they filled up
the entire stadium
up to the 400 nosebleed section.
altho i dont think it sold out..or maybe it did
and some people just didnt show up. ::shrug::
nevertheless
imma give you a recap of
what went down last night.
and as usual get you all info'ed up
about whats goin down all this week and in the weeks to come
show started off at 7:00pm on tha dot
which was nice considering were in Miami
w. Lupe Fiasco
Mr. 1st and 15th himself
He started off w. a rockish faster rendition of The coolest
Then he went into Hip hop saved my life w. whom i think was Nikki Jean.
She had a DIME PIECE shirt w. the Louis Vuitton Millionaire Sunglasses.
Got into Hi Definition.
then took it back to Kick Push.
Went into Go Go Gadget Flow and the crowd was crazy.
One of my favorites Paris, Tokyo was next
then Streets on Fire.
Matthew Santos came on and did Fighters with him
and stayed on stage for Superstar that drove everyone crazy.
Matthew Santos tho i think was kinda experimenting w. his tones n shit
idk if anyone noticed and well im not fuckin Simon Cowell but yea. not cool. stick to the script.
and then what i had prayed for...
he took it back to food n liquor with Daydream. Everyone went nuts and the sing along was crazy.
The had alittle intermission
and we went into N.E.R.D.
they came w. the live band and i gotta say
it just makes you appreciate the music so much
to be quite honest im not 39234% sure about their
song selection but they kept the crowd hype.
Crazy energy surrounded the entire set and that was great.
about around the Forth song Chris Brown made an appearence and krumped
for the song they were singing.
Apparently Mr. Pharrel is now living in Miami and at the end of his set
he got up on the speakers to thank everyone..through up his live prosper
sign..and then started signaling 3-0-5 and everyone got into it. it was pretty
cool he repped for Miami that way.
Rihanna was next
her intro song was man-eater and...im not sure why that was
because that song is by Nelly Furtado.
is it cause rihanna is a man-eater? watch yo bbback CB.
hm....
::shrug::
she started with breakin dishes..which i had never heard before ::shrug::
then um..got into break it off followed by pon de replay which was nice to
hear. She started getting into some beenie man and she even sang alittle
MIA. I went fucking...NUTS
you know i love me some MIA.
anywho...she went into a wardrobe change
and sang
SOS
then Hate how much i love you
and unfaithful. everyone really got into that.
then please dont stop the music came on and got everyone hype.
the glowsticks the dances had were pretty on point i liked those.
aaaand then she capped it off w. umbrella which i believe chris brown
shoulda come outta no where considering he was already there ::shrug::
so that was done with and there was a curtain closing setting up for Kanye's set that took about 45 minutes.
Kanyes performance started around 10
and of course everyone went crazy...
his set was interesting. big screen came w. stars n shit. like
another planet type shit. his spaceship crashed and landed on the stage
pretty much so he was laid out and well he got up
stylin the yeezys which im not a complete fan of ::shrug::
he had a live band including DJ craze at the bottom of the stage.
started off with good morning.
then went unto I wonder which i llllove
the bass was crazy.
then he go into heard um say which was nice to hear
then he kinda went into dialogue with is "spaceships computer"
and at the end the computer said "remember this isnt your first crash"
and through the wire came on...everyone one went crazy
i liked how that kinda linked into his crash.
then he got into champion and outta nowhere hit me w.
get um high and i llllllove that song. i swear if common and talib
woulda come out idk what i woulda done.
phewwww
diamonds from sierra leone was nextttt
and then he got into cant tell me nothin which made the crowd go crazy
flashing lights came on and the stage lighting was great. flashing lights everywhere of course.
everyone was on their feet for the entire performace
he just came w. fire and excitement.
outta no where some weird alien thing came out and said he was
the biggest star in the universe n shit ::shrug::
as he started getting into the song spaceship..the stage lifted
like spaceship. fucking great. then all falls down.
he got into goldigger and an animated gold woman came on the screen
which he felt the need to come up to and rub her ass. lol pretty funny
he got into the good life and fucking the stadium..idk how it didnt
come down.
he did jesus walks and then dear mama.
everyone kinda quieted down a bit, lighters def came out, phone screens
alla that..i cried alil bit lol. nnnnot gonna lie. it was pretty emotional
he took a minute and after the song sat the corner and drink alil sippy sippy
and "dont stop believing" came on. yea..he took it back w. that one.
we got a close look at the yeezys and im still...nope
sorry
::shrug::
then he appropriatly went into stronger.
we had the producers booth thing infront of us where timberland
was at for the kanye performance. Rihanna ended up coming
up there n coolin for the rest of the performance.
We noticed that the screen on her blackberry was cracked so hey
feel normal
youre not the only one thats dropped their phone enuf to crack the front
her body guards also didnt let this photog that was up there take a pic of her
::shrug::
so the lights got dark n people shouted for the man..and he came out and did homecoming
which was great. then had a little wardrobe change and just put on a butter leather jacket
on and did touch the sky..and LUPE CAMMMEE OUUUT which was great.
[: all n all his set was well put together
the song selection clicked and it all went great.
the show ended at about 11:45
