Airforce 1's Birthday

To mark the 25th anniversary of the Airforce 1 the sportswear giant commissioned a piece from Ride Out's favourite jeweller Daisuke Sakaguchi.



What he created is a sterling silver pendent made up of 25 individual pieces which together make the number 25.



Each piece is engraved with the original sole pattern of the Airforce 1 and has the Daisuke signature on the back.

Individual pieces retail for £250 and you'll have to do the maths if you want the whole picture.

The piece is being exhibited at

17-18 Dover Street, London W1S

Go down and ask for your boy Alex Wysman to view it.


You can check out more of Daisuke's work @ www.daisukesakaguchi.com

Also on show is the limited edition Nike Luxe Airforce 1.



With both trainers priced at £1,000 they are the bees’ knees. The left is full anaconda and the right full crocodile skin, so you'll have the animal activists on your tail. These are so real you need animal trading licences to send them to the States.

Towers of London v Roll Deep

Fake punk rocker Donny Tourette from CBB fame leads his band Towers of London in a football match against 'notorious hip hop crew' Roll Deep. And they pitched it as the clash of the titans... this one's jokes.

'A girl like me' by Kiri Davis

Jennifer Hudson on the cover of Vogue

Soul singer and Dreamgirls actress Jennifer Hudson will become the first black singer to grace the cover of Vogue magazine when its March issue hits stores.

The first black woman to make the cover of Vogue was Beverly Johnson in August 1974.


Naomi Campbell September 1989 was the lowest selling vogue cover ever. However, she would go on to grace the cover a number of times.


Oprah shed the pounds for this cover in October 1998.


The last black woman on the cover of Vogue International was Halle in December 2002.


There was actually a black singer on the cover of Vogue before Hudson but she was part of a group.

Guess who...

...

50 CENT - FUNERAL MUSIC (CAM'RON DISS)

50's got a new album coming out sometime this year so I guess the campaign trail starts now.



I heard Cam's response and it's fire. I think he's won this round. He's shooting a video for it so as soon as it's done I'll have it on and you can decide.

Young Jeezy ft. R Kelly - Go Getta

My favourite artist, I mean trapper, so far this year.

Dear Photo Diary...

Another week, another dollar.

Truth Documented was out with the cast of Mayhem Makers (upcoming comedy sketch) to celebrate getting a slot on E4.


The cast


Look out for Daisuka Sakaguchi on Ride Out Only Fools & Verses mixtape coming soon!!


TD with cast members. Nyke from Milkymans also involved.

The Team Team caught up with Kat at the Choice FM night at Departure Lounge...


It was a pretty boy affair...


But Michael-Kojo 'CEO' and Big Touch were there in case anything popped off...


Yeah right...


I guess it was a good night...

C'mon he is the youngest in the camp. And he still made it to work that morning. Its a fierce schedule, I know.

Go See Blood Diamond!

I went to watch Blood Diamond the other night... What can I say; it wasn't your normal cinema experience.

Usually; I snuggle into my seat with my sweet popcorn and Malteser mix, finishing it within the first 20 minutes of the movie, and then proceed to watch the film, leaving as soon as the final credits appear.

On this night I snuggled into my seat with the same sweet popcorn and Malteeser mix but this time I didn't finish it within the first 20 minutes, in fact I didn't finish it at all. And at the end of the movie I didn't leave as soon as the final credits appeared, I sat there through the whole thing as the poignant title track (Nas - Shine On 'Em) blared out of the speakers.

Apart from a few dodgy accents the film feels very real and the raw emotion leaps off the screen so much so that it will have you pinned to your seat for the duration of the movie. And it is with that raw emotion you will leave the cinema. It’s been reported that women have been removing their jewellery when leaving screenings.

My first reaction was to be ashamed that it took seeing the film to be moved into action. My second thoughts were:

Yes Grillz... I always thought they were stupid, imagine how I feel now. And yes I'm pointing out Hip Hop culture, why? Cause you got to start at home. A rapper makes it from nothing and to commemorate his rise to success he buys diamonds so now his money is used to fund the mass murder of his people in Africa. Even worse: That same rapper probably dedicates bars to his brothers and sisters in the motherland. On top of that, rappers that ain't even making money got ice just to maintain a look, so their funding atrocities back in Africa on credit. GET REAL MAN!!

Even above the miss-education in the rap game is the wider issue of consumerism. Materials are given greater value than life. What would you do for that new **** (fill it in yourself) you want so badly? What would you overlook? Look at these pictures...






They say we have become desensitized to images of suffering, I don't know what do you think?

Nas - Shine On 'Em

50 Cent on the phone with Styles P and Cam'ron

Not to be out done by his arch rival The Game, 50 Cent was in Hot 97 the other night to stir some trouble. Firstly he claimed he was responsible for the delay of Styles P's album release and then he threatened he could have Koch shut down.

Stlyes P and Cam'ron both called in to dispute his claims and it's funny to see how different their conversations were.

LISTEN TO 50 CENT v STYLES P

LISTEN TO 50 CENT v CAM'RON

To be honest I dig what 50's saying about he can't be on the street corner in the hood, he can't help them doing that. The best thing he can do is keep opening doors in the upper echelons of this industry so the hood can walk through.

But wasn't the Styles P conversation refreshing and you got love Killa Cam for being Killa Cam.
