BAD BRAINS x GLEN E. FRIEDMAN x SHEPHARD FAIREY


check out this sick new print by Shephard Fairey. this is definitely an interesting collaboration, as the original photo was taken by Glen E. Friedman. most of you are definitely too young to know who Glen Friedman is, let's just say that he is a classic photographer that i definitely look up to, and is someone who made a lot of what i find interesting possible. anyhow, this print will be available during February. sick.

REBEL 8 COLLECTOR'S DECKS

these decks were hand-screened and sold as a limited edition run from Santa Cruz Skateboards last year. REBEL8 have been sitting on a few since the release and only until now are they selling out their private stock. each deck is signed 'Mike Giant 2009' and will remain in the original shrink-wrap from the factory. there are only about 4 of each model. these are a true collector’s piece indeed.
Click here or the decks to buy.

MIKE GIANT ON CLARK MAGAZINE: PART II & RANT



ok, so i know this was already posted in regards to a few days back by my business partner and best friend OC$@R, but here are bigger images. you will also notice that Tommy Guerrero, Henry Rollins, and a few other names that a few posers or those who just jumped on the bandwagon (not just anyone reading this, but a few who know who they are, yes you) should get to know about. namely, someone said that i wasn't 'motivation' or 'support', but it seems like that person was wrong.

1). Motivation: it seems as though something motivates you to read every sentence, everything and every little detail on the blog, ShoutBox, and etc... i mean, sometimes i write things so hidden, minute, or vague just to prove the point that if you say you don't care to hear what i say, but i find it 'entertaining' that you end up scouring this blog 'obsessively' as you put it to 'hate' as you put it as well. remember?; 'obsessive haters'? all of this for your 'entertainment', i think that's a front.

2). Support: yes it is true, i don't support you or what it is 'you claim to do.' you need to be put in your place. you need to respect those who have been doing this longer than you and lastly, don't disrespect those who basically open you up to the things you claim to know all about now.

let me drop this, in fact, let us drop this because i am above the level that you are at pouting and 'whatever it is you claim to do'. i've been into this longer than you, wanted to do 'whatever it is i claim to do' longer than you, and i do it for the love. let me clarify, what i mean by being above the level you are on, is that i can be professional because to me, this is my profession, my love, my life, and generally; what makes me happiest to do, and ultimately what i aspired to do for the rest of my life. this is what makes me happy.


back to the main topic, this magazine that Mike Giant interviewed on features lots of key people in the industry or inspirational people. Tommy Guerrero and Henry Rollins are only 2 of the many people who have been doing this long before you or i, and only 'motivate' me to do what i love, for the love, and they are people we should 'support' because they have made it possible for me to do the things i love.

so back the the main topic; the interview with MIKE GIANT can be read on over at CLARM MAGAZINE. get to it.

thank you to those who 'get it' and are just generally good people at heart. those are the types of people i hope to reach, and those who don't i guess, are just those who will take offense to my rant...
