more on the hoodie
To go with my previous post from the other night about designer hoodies... here is an interview with Pharrell Williams by The New York Times on his clothing label under Japanese label Bathing Ape. I found this pretty interesting. I can't wait to visit the Soho and Whicker Park areas when I do Chicago over Christmas break!

Also... check out the Bape website...

you have to essentially download the website, but do not be scared. this is ONE of the coolest websites i've ever seen. it is mastery. you download it, and then open it up as an interesting OS X - ish application. Just check it out.
I would also like to encourage any/all of you to go to Cafe Coco on saturday nights. There is some amazing stuff that goes down there. It was my first time, and I was blown away that this kind of hip hop spontaneity goes down so regularly in nashville. Good DJ (good to my limitedly exposed standards) interesting freestylers. Be there.
