Mizzee Customs

2007 sneaker retrospective
Mizzee is a friend of the already profiled EL, while EL currently focuses on shoes, Mizzee is open to turning anything you throw at him into a master piece. Enjoy.

2007 was a great year imo. ive developed more as an artist, made new friends, got the magazine spot, and stayed single lol ive been painting kicks for roughly 9 years of and on and decided this year to step out of my safezone. heres a progressive look at damn near all the sneakers ive done this year in order from old to new. im missing a few pairs(roughly 5 ) but w/e hope 08 treats me just as good as 07 did. hell i might even return to forum posting lol chio 07-the infamous miz/Ryon

Contineing Music Awareness Week (Cool kids)


Name: Cool kids
Occupation: hip hop/Backpacker/rocker
Genre: hip-hop,skater, 80's Hip Hop in 21st Century
Contemporaries: Pharell
Compares: Lupe Fiasco,Star Trax,Clipse,The Pac



When the Cool Kids posted the video "Black Mags," on their MySpace page this fall, they were hoping to do for bikes what Lupe Fiasco's "Kick Push" did for skateboards. "Not everybody can relate to skateboarding, because it's hard to do," says the retro-rap duo's Chuck, 23, who broke his ankle doing skater tricks last year. "But everybody rides bikes." Since "Black Mags" debuted, the Cool Kids have gone from an underground sensation in their native Chicago to the hottest ticket at New York's CMJ festival, where they played with A-trak (Kanye West's DJ) and wowed Warner Music Group CEO Lyor Cohen.From their rope chains to their spare, bass-heavy beats, Chuck and Mikey bring a knowing wink to the style of Eighties heroes like Eric B and EPMD. Their anthem, "88," redo's a track from from Nas' "Made You Look" the duo sounds like music for the soul while also sounding refeshed and new to the ears of the hustla earning its boast of being "the black Beastie Boys." of the 21st century you can also catch them in commericals rock'n to the tunes of the black Mags track
