Cool Kids: Black Mags - black dudes in skinny jeans & bmxes'



Here we go, another thing combining stuff we love; bikes, hip hop and radical social commentary on the state of the world in which we live in (by focusing on current male fashion trends).

Go ahead and check out the notorious clip Henny's last post was talking about.

You will see, for the first time since 1980s, a black dude rapping AND wearing skinny jeans. That's the sign of the times for you. Such a bold fashion statement. And I do like the upside down visor hat too.

"Dyno with the Black Mags..."

Coming up in the second part, sometime next week;
 'What is he talking about? What Dyno? Black Mags...?'

Swedish Disco Love. From Me 2 You.


New weeks, new tricks. And I'm not meaning those freestyle bike tricks Kanye is probably right now working hard to perfect on his Vigorelli track bike for his next video.

Anyhow, for some strange reason I'm really feeling THIS SONG right now: 
The Sounds - Tony the Beat (Rex the Dog Remix)

Of course it's good only because Rex The Dog remixed the original boring-ish power pop fake punk track into nice bouncy electro disco version.

And yeah, the singer chick sounds pretty hot too, in that special nasty way, with the heavy swedish accent, dirty voice, provocative lyrics and all. 

'Uuuuh baby, ja, ja, hej vill du festa med mig, vad, eller hur?'. She sounds like the type of chick you'd like to meet, yet be scared of meeting, in trendy bar at Södermalm when you're already drunk on mellan öl and in high on party mood. Don't even try to deny you wouldn't...

(FYI: Maybe I need to point out here that the singer is actually -unfortunately- neither of the girls on the cover of The Sounds' album  above. In fact, I remember reading somewhere that those lovely ladies on the cover shot are some fab real-life NYC scenesters...)
