Puma Central Saint Martins Collection

In February 2007, the Puma Central Saint Martins Bursary Fund was founded to correspond with Puma’s new sponsorship of the Central Saint Martins MA fashion show at London Fashion Week. One of the by-products of this relationship resulted in a re-design competition which allowed students within the menswear MA fashion curriculum to reinterpret some of Puma’s most classic footwear styles. The top 3 creations were made available in special Puma Concept stores worldwide, with €30 Euros (approximately $43 USD) being donated to the bursary fund. Puma has always been at the innovative fore-front of sport-fashion with previous collaborations with the likes of Jil Sander, Neil Barrett, Philippe Starck and Alexander McQueen.

Exclusive: Chris Capalano x The Twilite Tone

Chris Capalano

Here a new track an up and coming Chicago Emcee; Chris Capalano. The track gives that Jay-Z Reasonable Doubt feel, the ups and downs of street life with a 70s soul sample. The track is also produced by Common’s Original Producer/DJ The Twilite Tone; the man that personally brought Hip Hop to Chicago in the early 90s.

New Music From Alicia Keys

Alicia Keys

Here’s Alicia Keys second single, this joint is looking to be a banger. I have to say I hated the first single, me being an Alicia Keys fan, ‘No One‘ was a big let down. But this second single is hot, its produced by Timbaland,the track has a Prince Purple Rain feel to it. And if you want to see the studio process of this ‘As I Am’ Album check out; http://inthestudio.aliciakeys.com/main.html

New Music from Lil’ Wayne

Now a lot of rappers are trying these days to make the new hood anthem and always seem to fall short….. but, this track right here is most definitely a hood bander. Check it out…

New Remix from Ryan Leslie

Ryan Leslie

DOWNLOAD:: Diamond Girl (RX) ft. Kanye West

Cassie’s Producer/Boss and NextSelection’s front man is hoping that this single will be his breakout smash hit. I’ve heard that this remix isn’t a real remix that Kanye’s versus was taken from another song. The track is cool & he’s a genius (check it out) but this track feels like a mixtape joint, like the hot joint on a ok mixtape. But thats just me, you be the judge….

Stills Of The New Common Video “I Want You”

Alicia Keys, Common, Kanye

So heres some exclusive stills from Common’s new video “I Want You.” Now I like the song, but I thought that He should have released "Break My Heart" as his next single, but hey thats just me. Kerry Washington is the director of this joint, she was really good in the Chris Rock joint "I Think I Love My Wife". A lot of cameos in this one including Alicia Keys, Serena Williams, Kanye West and others. Also I here that this song is loosely basic on E.Badu. The video will premiere on 106 & Park on October 23rd and on TRL on October 25th.
