Labeled as one of the greatest classics in Hip Hop Raekwon the Chef’s solo effort “Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…” still sounds as fresh as in 1995. Witty wordplay and grimy beats were all a true Hip Hop fan could ask for. Thanks to dirt_dog of Philaflava the music world can now rejoice as a digitized version of Rae’s promotional cassette hits the internet. Here’s detailed information on this special treat.

I had mentioned in the forum a few days ago that I stumbled across a box of old tapes in my basement. Some mixtapes, some promo samplers, some custom tapes from the days of trading. After posting a short list, it looks like the people have spoken and they want to hear just about all of them. So first up is Raekwon’s 1995 promo cassette sampler for the upcoming release of “Only Built 4 Cuban Linx.” Nothing mind blowing here, but an exclusive freestyle and (at the time) an advance opportunity to hear a couple album cuts. NOTE: all scans are included in the .rar file as well as a full scan of the sleeve.

enjoy,

While A Bathing Ape and Sanrio are no strangers on the collaborative front, the past has only seen their partnerships as mere one-time projects. However the two have recently cemented a further deal which will see the two enter a licensing agreement with the A Bathing Ape Baby Milo character. Stayed tuned to see the outcome and unfolding of a more frequent Baby Milo and Hello Kitty partnership. What do you guys think on this ? Am I gonna start seeing Baby Milo & Hello Kitty hanging out now, ohhh boy.

Cuuuuute ! The packing is so adorable and irresistible. The collection consists of limited edition tins containing Blotting Paper with mirror for shine control and refills, Lip Treatment in Sweet Milky Pink called Fantasy (pink set) and Sheer Orange called Daydream (blue set), that adds a hint of color and shine while conditioning dry lips. The sets launch at ASOS on February 25th and at Harrods on March 6th and will cost £25. So cute, I’m sure I won’t be able to resist this and end up pouting my lips to one of my friends. Funny thing is, last year for my birthday, I had an Alice in Wonderland Birthday Tea Party, it was pretty ridiculous awesome and even all of my gf’s dressed up in costume as characters, siiigh, memories. Who else is in on this ?
