Recognize: Kim Davis

By Mickie Futura | Nov 19.08 | Music, Spotlight

Our Canadian sweetie Mila Victoria introduced this talented artist to us and it brings us great pleasure to present her music to you (if you haven’t already been introduced). Canadian raised Kim Davis is a force to be reckoned with, being a multi-faceted artist vocally, lyrically and musically. After meeting Dre Knight, a producer for The Narcotics - Knight has picked Davis as his new breakout artist, releasing Kim’s recent debut album, ” Live, Love, Learn” and “Hush” being the first smash record to hit radio airwaves in Canada, the U.S and the UK. We hear you Kim, loud and clear ma! Have a listen.

Both tracks in heavy rotation

Lupe Fiasco Plans to Retire

By Mickie Futura | Nov 04.08 | Entertainment

Another one bites the dust! Lupe Fiasco announces that he’s retiring and that his final installment, LupE.N.D - will be his last.

The three disc swan song correlates to each letter of E.N.D.. The “E” stands for Everywhere, the “N” for Nowhere, and the “D” for Down Here.

He says that he just doesn’t “really feel like rapping anymore.” - Hmm, we’ll see about that now will we?!

Supreme x Miles Davis

By Mickie Futura | Nov 03.08 | Fashion

For the 50th anniversary of the release of ‘Kind of Blue‘ which is regarded by many as one of the greatest records of all time, Supreme along with the Miles Davis Foundation, and Sony Music will re-release a Limited Edition series of three of Miles’ most influential records, marking three distinct moments in his musical evolution - Kind of Blue originally released in 1959, Nefertiti originally released in 1968, and On The Corner originally released in 1972. Each CD cover is a unique, exact replica of the original 12″ Album Cover. Each has been digitally remastered for superior sound, and includes bonus tracks as well as a custom sticker for each title. Along with these CDs Supreme will be releasing a group of collaborative tees, which corresponds to each of the three albums. And that’s why we love Supreme! More images and release dates below.
