SOME OF MY FAVORITE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE THROWING DOWN IN LA FOR THE NEXT LIL’ WHILE AND I HIGHLY SUGGEST THAT ALL YOU “LEFT COASTERS” OUT THERE FUCKING CHECK IT OUT. I’M TALKING ABOUT ROSE LURADO AND ANDREW JEFFREY WRIGHT AKA THE NEW DREAMZ.

THE NEW DREAMZ OPERATE IN THAT WEIRD MIDDLEZONE BETWEEN ART AND COMEDY THAT I PERSONALLY LOVE. ANDREW JEFFRY WRIGHT IS A LEGEND AND EVEN ONCE DESIGNED A JUICEBOXXX TEE-SHIRT.

REST IN PEACE TO NASHVILLE LEGEND BEN TODD. HE PASSED AWAY YESTERDAY AT 24 AND MY HEART IS HEAVY. A TRULY POSITIVE AND GENUINE GUY, BEN PERSONIFIED THE KIND OF SIKED YOUTH ENERGY THAT THE WORLD WILL ALWAYS NEED. NASHVILLE HAS A VERY SPECIAL AND TIGHT-KNIT ROCK AND ROLL SCENE AND BEN PLAYED A BIG PART IN MAKING IT WHAT IT IS. ALL OF MY THOUGHTS ARE GOING OUT TO MY NASHVILLE FRIENDS – STAY STRONG TODAY.

RIP BEN TODD

I’VE KNOWN BRIAN BLOMERTH (AKA NARWHALZ) FOR A LONG TIME NOW AND LET ME JUST SAY THAT MY LOVE FOR THE MAN RUNS DEEP. YOU MAY KNOW BRIAN FROM THINGS LIKE “NOISE MUSIC”, “JUDGE JUDY”, “POMERANIANS” OR “WEIRD AL” BUT FORGET ABOUT ALL THAT BECAUSE THIS IS 2K12 AND WE ARE KEEPING IT MOVING!

“THE SMALL DOG OTHER” IS HIS NEW COMIC AND IT ELEVATES THE GAME. SOME OF THE SICKEST GRAPHIX STYLES AROUND TELLING A STORY ABOUT GROWING UP AND FREAKING OUT VIA SOME CRAZY DOGS. THIS IS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT, PEOPLE! WATCH THE COMMERCIAL FOR IT ABOVE AND BUY THE BOOK RIGHT HERE.

BRIAN AND I HAVE SPENT MANY YEARS ON THE ROAD RAGING AND FUCKING LOSING OUR MINDS TOGETHER SO I’M SIKED TO SEE THIS MOTHERFUCKER TAKING HIS WORK TO THE NEXT LEVEL. HE’S SOME GOT COLLABORATIONS WITH THUNDER ZONE COMING UP, SO KEEP YOUR EARS TO THE STREET AND NEVER STOP RAGING IN THE USA.

DEVIN FLYNN IS AN AMERICAN DIRT STYLE LEGEND. HOW MANY MOTHERFUCKERS HAVE DONE WORK WITH BOTH LOUD RECORDS AND LOAD RECORDS? GARY PANTER AND RAPPERS LIKE SENSATIONAL? THE LIST IS SHORT. FROM NOISE FREAKOUTS TO RAP MUSIC TO CARTOON INSANITY, THIS GUY HAS DONE IT ALL WITH ONE OF THE SICKEST STYLES IN THE GAME.

MAYBE YOU’VE HEARD PIXTELTAN? MAYBE YOU’VE SEEN SOME OF HIS MUSIC VIDEOS? I HAVE NO IDEA WHY THIS GUY DOESN’T HAVE A WIKI BUT HE SHOULD. MR. FLYNN MADE A NEW PILOT FOR SOME INTERNET TV STATION CALLED MONDO CALLED SUPERSTUPID AND OF COURSE IT BRINGS HOME THE GOODS. FUCKING CHECK IT ABOVE AND CHECK OUT EVERYTHING THIS MOTHERFUCKER DOES.

THE SICHEST GOSSIP MAGAZINE IN THE GAME, NO QUESTION. PROBABLY MY FAVORITE “ZINE” GOING RIGHT NOW TOO. COMING STRONG OUT OF LOS ANGELES AND RUN BY THE ONE AND ONLY IE AND FRIENDS, TOTALLY MAG TACKLES ALL THE TOPICS.

FROM POP CULTURE ALL THE WAY DOWN TO KIDS FREAKING OUT IN BASEMENTS AND WAREHOUSES AROUND THE USA, THEY GOT IT COVERED. ALL DONE WITH HANDMADE, TWEEN-STYLE LOVE. TOTALLY MAG! IT’S DA SHIT.

I GO WAY BACK WITH TYSON AND SCOTT REEDER. I USED TO THROW A TEEN DANCE PARTY BACK AT THEIR OLD SPOT IN MILWAUKEE CALLED THE GENERAL STORE AND TYSON AND I EVEN WENT ON TOUR TOGETHER IN 2K5.

LET ME JUST SAY, THESE MOTHERFUCKERS KNOW THEIR WAY AROUND A PAINT BRUSH!

THE REEDER BROS HAVE BEEN DOING “THE WORLD’S SMALLEST COMEDY CLUB” FOR A HOT MINUTE NOW. IT IS CALLED CLUB NUTZ AND OF COURSE IT IS DA SHIT! MINI BRICK WALL, MINI DISCO LIGHT – ALL THAT. I HOPE TO WORK WITH THESE GUYS AGAIN IN THE FUTURE – U NEVER KNOW WHAT THE BROS HAVE UP THEIR SLEEVE!

THIS MONDAY IN LA MY BUDDY ERIC ANDRE WILL BE DOING A TAPING OF THE TALK SHOW HE HAS BEEN DEVELOPING FOR THE ADULT SWIM NETWORK. THE SHOW HAS BEEN DESCRIBED AS “CHARLIE ROSE ON SALVIA MEETS 1970S NYC PUBLIC ACCESS AND HYPERACTIVE JAPANESE GAME SHOWS” AND WHO AM I TO ARGUE? ERIC HITS ALL HIS MARKS WITH CHARM TO SPARE.

I WILL BE THE HOUSE DJ FOR THE NIGHT AND GUESTS LIKE QUEEN LATIFAH, EMMA STONE, ELLEN “DJ” ENERES AND SAVION GLOVER WILL BE IN THE BUILDING. ALL OF THIS AND MORE GOING DOWN AT PEHRSPACE IN LOS ANGELES! WATCH A PREVIEW OF THE SHOW BELOW TO GET IN THE ZONE.

10/23/2011

I’VE SAID IT ONCE AND I’LL SAY IT AGAIN.
HOLD ON TIGHT TO YOUR DREAMS AND NEVER STOP.
I KNOW WE HAVE ALL SEEN A LOT OF DARKNESS BUT WE HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO KEEP ON RAGING.

THANKS TO MY MAN VICE COOLER FOR THE HEADS UP ON THIS ONE! JESSE MILLER IS WHATSUP, THIS VIDEO IS ONE OF THE SICKEST THINGS I’VE SEEN IN A BIT. JESSE ALSO DOES A COOL TALK SHOW AND A TON OF OTHER VIDEOS THAT ARE WORTH YOUR TIME. I’VE NEVER MET THE MAN BUT HE SEEMS LIKE HE WOULD BE FUN AS FUCK TO PARTY WITH. I CAN PICTURE THE TWO OF US HANGING OUT, SLAMMING ENERGY DRINKS AND JUST STRAIGHT UP VIBING.

MY BUDDY AND JUICEBOXXX TEE-SHIRT DESIGNER ANDREW JEFFREY WRIGHT HAS AN ART SHOW CALLED “DOWN FOR WHATEVER FOREVER” OPENING IN LOS ANGELES TODAY AT THIS GALLERY IN HIGHLAND PARK (OPENING PARTY 7-10PM). PSYCHEDELIC SPENCER’S GIFTS INSPIRED FAKE GRAFFITI OP-ART IS ONE WAY TO DECRIBE AJW’S SICK STYLE, BUT IT GOES DEEPER. ALL THE REAL HEADS BOW DOWN TO THIS GUY, OG SPACE 1026 CREW IN PHILLY WITH DEEP TIES TO PROVIDENCE AND A MILLION LEGENDARY PROJECTS. IN ADDITION TO VISUALS, AJW ALSO DOES COMEDY WITH A CREW CALLED THE NEW DREAMZ. CHECK OUT THEIR WEBSITE AND IF YOU ARE IN LOS ANGELES DO NOT MISS THE NEW DREAMZ AT PEHRSPACE ON MONDAY WITH VICE COOLER LIVE AND MYSELF BEHIND THE TURNTABLES.

ALSO, ACROSS THE COUNTRY IN NEW YORK CITY TWO OF THE BEST IN THE GAME – MICHAEL WILLIAMS AND CORY ARCANGEL, HAVE ART SHOWS UP NOW AT CANADA GALLERY AND THE WHITNEY, RESPECTIVELY. IF U IN NYC, DO NOT SLEEP. ALL THREE OF THESE ARTISTS ARE VERY INSPIRATIONAL TO ME!
