PRESIDENT OBAMA?!? WHO KNEW?!?  Who knew muthafucka?  I'll tell ya who knew, Jaleel Bunton and Katy Eustis Umm..oh and Oprah. Those are the first people I know of who really kicked it to me about Barack Obama. I have to admit I was a bit skeptical about him having the slightest chance of winning, mostly because he was black....

But after seeing the first debate between democrats and all of the black religious "leaders" going against him, it started to make perfect sense to me. Besides, when have those dudes ever been right about anything? I knew exactly who I wanted to win. But I still had the sense of doubt right up to the very end. I was waiting for the bullshit. I even walked away from the TV because I didnt want to see it happen after agonizing over it the entire night. 

When my mom called and told me he won, I was freaked out. Totally confused.  Lotsa thoughts crossed my mind about how all of this was gonna go down. I felt like I didn't give white people enough credit (not you guys, you guys are ok). I figured most people would be on the Barak train so they wouldn't be accused of being racists and when they got in the booth...well you know. 

I got news for you muthafuckas, I wasn't the only one. There were lotsa black people skeptical about the white vote. Upon victory it really hit me. The majority of this country no matter the race, was on the same page. Maybe they were tired of the mediocrity and disgrace brought to us by GEORGE HERBERT WALKER BUSH and DICK PIG HEART CHENEY or afraid of an old man who picked a vice president that didn't know africa was a continent.

But, somehow it seemed as if for the people that voted for Barack his skin color wasn't really even a thought. When I saw the massive amounts of people in the street celebrating, I really had to take a second to grasp what was really happening. It felt like a mix between new years eve, some kinda sports victory and the blackout. I thought about my 94 year old grandmother who lived through quite a few presidents. I'm pretty sure she never thought she would see that in her lifetime because I never thought I would see it in mine. That shit was inspiring. 

Now on to something much more important....

First off, Nike decided not to release what I consider to be the hottest shit out...well not out. The Heavens Gate Dunk

which was inspired by the group of people who committed suicide together while rocking the classic Black Nike Cortez Joints. I guess they figured it would be in bad taste but if you ask me bad taste is better than bland.

Jordan is releasing a new Hi Top 1 with a strap on. C'mon I had to say it.

For some reason they felt a need to add a strap to these for whatever reason and I don't fuckin care. They're pure heat, consider them shits got. Oh and I wanna say whats up to Melo. 

I checked out those Supras.They are pretty dope. I always keep an eye on Supra but something about them make me veer a little to the right when its time to buy them. Not sure what it is, maybe its Lil Wayne, but Chad Muska has a shoe from them and thats my man so maybe I should be a little more supportive. Then I came across the Supra wheat/nubuck joints. Thats what the fuck I'm talkin about.

Chad I'm on to these.

Finally, wanted to mention that I took a break from the shoe game to focus on furniture for the crib and I wanted to show this tv stand that I just spent a grip on.

Kinda hot though. Anyone out there got some kicks I need to see get at me.

Til next time...one.
