KANYE ANNOUNCES TOUR W/ LADY GAGA


Earlier this week, Kanye West announced on ABC’s The View that he will co-headline a world tour with none other than Lady Gaga. Although no dates have been solidified as of yet, West said the two will hit the road later on this year.


“She’s talented and she’s so incredible that she’s not an opening act,” West saids. “We’re doing our show together, with no opening act.”

Interesting. It’s good to see that , considering that Kanye is four albums in and Lady Gaga released her first and only album, The Fame just last year. Considering how massive the Glow In the Dark tour will be, and how avant-guard Lady Gaga is, this tour is sure to be a smash.

RUN’S HOUSE COMING BACK NEXT WEEK

The new season is set to air Monday, June 15th on MTV. This will be the 6th season of the popular show and word is they will speak on Jojo’s recent arrest on Marijuana charges this season. Should be interesting.

Kicks/Hi x Reebok Reverse Jam Pack | Sneakers & T-Shirts

The anticipated release of the Kicks/Hi x Reebok Reverse Jam Pack is around the corner. The Hawaiian crew presents a strong set of sneakers, along with a couple of matching t-shirts.

They used a micro-perf suede for the upper-accented by a stamped heel: “HONO” + “LULU” (on the green pair) and “YKWWS” (on the black pair). The colorways represent a home (green) and away (black)-as much of KICKS/HI inspiration comes from sports, island lifestyle (specifically growing up in Hawaii). The predominant color accent on both shoes is their signature shop orange, which they use extensively from their Orange Label cut and sew and bag program as well as through all of their collaborative efforts.

To accent the KICKS/HI x Reverse Jam shoes, they created a new “Natives are Restless” tee in three colorways. They will be including the KICKS/HI “Natives are Restless” tee as a gift with purchase of a KICKS/HI Reverse Jam at KICKS/HI Ward and Makaloa locations-as well as in their online shop on Saturday, June 13 2009.
