Allow me to reintroduce myself

Its been a long time I shouldn’t of left you… but as a 90’s guy I know only too well you can’t turn back the clock. Believe me I’ve tried. So I’m here to make ammense and reintroduce myself to the 40 or so people who’ve been checking my blog while I’ve been away… thanks people.

Its gonna be a different format from now on and a bit more random than just my musings on the past, you gonna get the benefit of seeing everything interesting that crawls across my path on the daily. First as way of an apology for not posting for months here is some of the visual shizzle I’ve seen since I left you:

A Tribe called creps

Its not often that you get a homage to an album cover from 2 seperate world famous sports brands but the Tribe have become the first musicians to receive the honour. Midnight Marauders gets the treatment from Puma and Adidas but I still haven’t seen these anywhere.

Lego album covers

Nobody seems to know who made these or why and I don’t care either, they just made me happy.

I’m getting this one

I say this all the time then can’t be arsed to part with the wong when it comes round to it but I have a feeling I’m gonna want this bad enough to cop it. I mean DJ Hero? Really? If the soundtrack is true to the turntablist visions stirring in my head this will be dope and I will finally be able to live out my DMC fantasies.

USB Sick

Who needs a plain old stick when you can get these sick little puppies

Football photoshops

Okay so some of these might go over a few heads but I’ll try and point the footie phobic in the right direction

Just google Joey Barton nicked and you can work out what this is getting at

This is a reference to the club versus country row between England and Spurs & nothing to do with Cobra kai…

just google ‘Ronaldo prick’ and erm… oh fugedabout it

5 criminally talented footballers plot to lift a trophy from an obsessed scot… probably whiskey in that ‘Iniesta’ mug

Terrorism cards

Charlie put me onto these they’re from 1987 or so and are proof the illuminati have been plotting this war on terror since the 80’s. Why do I always get onto these moneymaking schemes too late? I could’ve invested my pocket money in gas masks and teflon.

And finally… this made me laugh

South Park came up trumps with the Kanye West ‘Gayfish’ episode which I’m sure you’ve seen by now but this just shows how far the episode reached into popular culture

Retro round up 1

Yo peeps, this is our first round up of items that prove the 90’s are coming back strong….

Puma West Philly collection

Bringing a new meaning to the phrase ‘fresh kicks’ here are the samples from the new Puma West Philly collection which are based on the cult 90’s TV show the Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

The tongues sport the familiar green and pink logo from the shows opening credits and on the heels there is a feint graf dub of the words ‘West Philly’ which is where the playground that the Fresh Prince was born and raised and spent most of his days was situated.

There’s also a backpack and bright green watch to go with these sneaks that have yet to surface in the shops yet but if you do see them holla at ya boy cos I wanna cop these!!!

Peep em here

and the rest of the range here

Wiley – Summertime Video

This video has everything a 90s guy like me could wish for. Backdrops that come straight of a pair of Zubaz pants, a stack of girls in cycling shorts and a homage to the ‘House Party’ dance off, really what more could you ask for?

Just Blaze – 90’s Flava Vol.1

Roc-a-fella’s premier producer is back with a new mixtape which is all 90’s. Its got a smattering of everything, new jack swing, new school and east coast hardcore. Be warned though, it also has a smattering of his voice every couple of minutes too, but well worth a listen.
