[Editorial] Mac Miller & Lord Finesse: Paying Homage Costs
When ever someone asks me, 'what do you think of Mac Miller?' I usually answer by saying first and foremost that I love the way he chooses Hip Hop instrumentals from the 90's as the basis of his new songs. I love that during his concerts he sometimes stops and tells the crowd to go listen to A Tribe Called Quest when they get home. I love how he's on a song with Pos from De La Soul, and how…
[RH Reviews] ASAAD: Dirty Middle Class
When you mix the slums of Philly, Bailman jeans, Rodarte sweaters, Martinelli apple juice, and weed together, The Dirty Middle Class emerges with countless forms of Hip Hop. “I’m a premium kind of n*gga.

Because the week started off on a good note, there was little doubt the week wouldn't end as such. Below are some highlights from around Chicago's fashion scene from forerunners Saint Alfred, Leaders 1354, Jugrnaut, RSVP…

Ain’t That A Bitch…
My introduction to Phosporescent came when I got and fell in love with the song "It's Hard To Be Humble (When You're From Alabama)". Yesterday I got my second email from the Phos camp, this one carrying some pretty terrible news. It turns out the fan was stolen after their gig at Pier 54 in NYC and all the gear is gone with it. The damage is close to 40K, with some vintage items being…
