Anyways,  after speaking with Mega Ran he mentioned he and Storyville would be very interested in doing an interview for the hiphopheads podcast which is soo dope! And these got cool stories did you know Storyville has been  to Dr. Dre’s studio!? Yeah cool stuff like that,  speaking of cool stuff he’s also interested in doing a photoshoot with us!

My Main Man Pat: Biggie

MMMP
We’re coming up on the tragic death date of the great Biggie Smalls, so My Main Man Pat has done the honor of finding some incredible designs this week! Which reminds me I forgot to get that Mr. Burns joint last time I failed :(. Check em out.

I must say I am loving the start our third year has gotten off to. We have multiple joints from the homie Ready2Rumbl up and yet it’s still not easy to say he has the dopest art on the page. I like with how high the bar has been set for the next 52…

For those of you who were following the page this time last year, you may recall that we dedicate the week of March 9th to the one and only Biggie Smalls. With this in mind I’ve been hunting artists on Instagram and am real please we landed Jim Spendlove. His “Word Up Magazine” design speaks for itself and I hope you’ll join me in welcoming him to the team.

Ready2Rumbl made me sweat a bit but came through as he always does with his “Ready2Die” joint. I love the way this man’s mind works and I think we may have our first two candidates for next years contest.

On that note, much respect to all of those who voted in our reprint contest. Although the competition was tight it is tough to argue with the eventual winner. R2R’s “If I Ruled The World” joint took the crown as last year’s finest design and will be our only reprint of the year. Also available in Hoodies this time around.
