I’m jonesing for some gravy and turkey and stuffing. I made this playlist for all of you out there looking for a fix of something or another. What was your thanksgiving moment?

I took a census at the Central Board of the Cut & Sewn Crew this week to find out what we’re really thankful for:

Francesca: “I am thankful for mixtapes never dying, unlike ska.”

Mikaila: “I am thankful for . . . .  interactive dinosaurs.”

Lee: “I’m thankful for cufflinks and yearbook photos.”

Gray: (Due to a lack of a response) “I’m thankful for loose lips and YOU, the Reader.”

What are you most thankful for?

The obligation to buy gifts for EVERYONE I know happens to fall at the end of the year when the rent is due and the bank flow gets real low.

Even Secret Santa gets old when you’ve got so many social circles (right?).

Shefinds.com Holiday Gift Guide knew that Cut & Sewn would provide the perfect present for the season.

I realized I only needed to buy one gift after all… for myself.
Girls Tee, Medium-Grass, Classic-Black.

Sorry, it’s the economy.

Nobody will argue because everyone says it.

You can design it only at Cut & Sewn

This chart reminds me how I feel every time I play tetris. Thanks to graphjam.

Here’s the new Lebron commercial for the Lebron 6, debuting tomorrow. See how many other people you can name in the spot. Thanks Nice Kicks.

Spy is a Madrid street artist. He’s nationally recognized for good reason. His work is mainly in athletic equipment and making things larger than life. Maybe he’ll draw me dunking on that hoop.

We are talking about our blog of course!

After some issues, we are finally back up and ready to rock. Some of you might have already noticed that we have been up, but, to those who haven’t, consider this your official welcome. WELCOME! We have some posts already up so make yourself comfortable, take a look around and enjoy.

Who knows, you may find something you like, you may not – but I suppose that’s what you get with Loose Lips. Ok ok, that was the last one.

Peace.

Like I’ve said before I like Super Mario Brothers. I also like brownies and cookies. This website, Snack or Die, shows step by step recipes of your favorite video game iconic images in a delicious flavor.

This video is really well made. Just after the 2 minute mark, Jay-Z cuts in to light up the song. Check out the interview I did with the inspiration behind this video.

This picture came from the abolitionist days, but I think it works now, too. In these current times, which is more apt, “Yes We Can” or “We Want Beer”? Which do you prefer?

Gray, the leader of the Cut & Sewn crew, flipped the Viva La Hova mixtape my way. I like mashups, I like Jay-Z so I was eager to check it out. After hearing it, I started telling my friends and let Mick Boogie know that I liked what he was doing. I asked him some questions, here’s how it went:

Lee: How’d you get into music?

Mick Boogie: I grew up playing instrumentals and finally got into deejaying when I went away to college. Music was always supported and encouraged in my household.

How did you hook up with Terry Urban?

Terry and I were deejaying in the same clubs in Cleveland and became really great friends… so I started involving him in my projects as well. He is a real talent.

How did it work mashing up an album with another person?

Great. We’ve done a lot of work together, so it’s easy. We bounce ideas off of each other, divide up the work, and make classics!

What do you think about Jay-Z starting up a label with Apple?

I think anyone doing anything next level and progressive regarding media is not only exciting, but essential, in these current times.
