Self-Centered.

Posted on July 7, 2008 by giant steps

Long-time friend and supporter Kam Moye dropped an EP entitled “Self-Centered” on his birthday a few weeks ago. You might know him better as Supastition, but the change in moniker is meant to represent a new direction in Kam’s music. If you’ve been following his stuff since “Seven Years of Bad Luck” you’ll be surprised at his new lyrical approach… for lack of a better term, it’s grown man rap. And as for the beats - he demonstrates his impeccable taste once again. This tightly assembled group of tracks is meant to whet listener appetites for his upcoming LP “Splitting Image” which is currently underway.

Perhaps the best part about this EP for you cheapskates is that Kam chose to give the EP away for free: you can download it at rappersiknow.com. It’s also better than most of the stuff you download illegally.

Hyperdunk Hotline.

Posted on July 2, 2008 by giant steps

So by now you’ve probably seen this commercial for the new Nike Hyperdunk that was produced by Wieden + Kennedy. But did you know that they’ve set up a real, working hotline that connects you to the Hyperdunk Recovery Center? Call 1877-DUNKD-ON and stay on the line. Hats off to Nike and W+K for an incredibly innovative marketing scheme.

(Thanks JRod for the heads up)

A side note: our good friend Ohmega Watts (Ubiquity) composed the background music for the video - it’s called “Platypus Strut” and is off his newest album Watts Happening. Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the track.
