How To Make In America

So there's a new HBO series coming out on Feb. 14 which features Scott "Kid Cudi" Mescudi called How To Make In America. Labeled as a Comedy series & produced by the same cats that brought you Entourage, check out the first episode in full below. Looks pretty promising so far.



In anticipation for the show, Dj Green Lantern & Broke Mogul teamed up to bust out a sweet little genre-mixed tape. You'll something on this tape that'll fry your taste buds for sure. The tape all features Kid Cudi & Dan Black's remix to "Symphonies". See the rad video below.

Runner's Wet Dream : Nike Lunar Rejuven8 Mid+

Dubbed one of the most tech advanced workout shoes to hit the pavement, the new hybrid-tech Lunar Rejuven8 Mid by Nike fuses together some NASA type shit to create one of the lightest, most comfortable shoes ever created while still offering a generous amount of foot/ankle support.

"The Lunar Rejuven8 Mid+ shown here is a unique hybrid design, which combines the Nike Torch’s upper with a lunarlite sole. The shoe’s exquisite design is not only aesthetically pleasing, but features a lightweight, moisture-managing, supremely comfortable trhee-layer textile construction.

Here we feature the first colorway to release, which is actually part of the Nike Livestrong Pack, and boasts a black and varsity maize colorway. They are available now at select Nike accounts eincluding Bows & Arrows and retail for $125 USD." - High Snob
