One of the reasons why I want to bring back Music Mondays – @misskeribaby
(sometimes I just see MAD heat in these videos)
Every once in a while footwear gets some love in music videos or the whole video is about kicks. When i see it, I feel like somebody should give them a shout out for showing love for the feets.
So I’m seriously thinking about bringing back Music Mondays. Maybe not every week, but at least once a month. Maybe some sort of bi-weekly wrap-up or something. Eh… we will see.
That is the HOTTEST part of the video (other than the sneaker/shoe shot LOL)
I’ll guess it will all work out. Update on this soon.

I will call it Music Mondays. The videos, links and so forth will be either old school stuff or totally sneaker or shoe related videos (or somehow relating to sneakers or shoes).

Nice Kicks says “Yuck”… I say “They got potential”
From NiceKicks.com
Would you wear them? That is the question.
Kicks Rule Everything Around Me, its K.R.E.A.M.
Originally found this on Nicekicks, the video is a play off of Wu-Tang C.R.E.A.M. as well as Spike Lees “Do The Right Thing”
I like it. Its cool and its original while still relating to some of that sneaker history.

While I would not say this song is along the same level as Nelly’s Air Force Ones video and song or Kayne West, Nas, Rakim, KRS-One song called Classic aka Better Than I’ve Ever Been… its still catchy. I know it will make a great ring tone, no problem.
Nevertheless, the song disturbs me a little… even though its about sneakers, I just want more man. Where is the lyrical content over here?
His other song is WAY better and WAY more fun than this. Since I am posting this on a sneaker-slash-fashion-slash-culture blog site, I have to give him props for talking about sneakers. I am not a BAPE fan but I do like what they do.
Oh and by the way… THIS IS THE REMIX

A user asked me on another blog post way back in July about what sneakers is she wearing in this video. Well, I can’t tell which style name it is, but the brand name is Converse.. or maybe Keds… probably Keds since its a Rocawear thing.
Going on the hunch that the Roc is behind this (even though they really look like Converses), I look on Rocawear’s site for current stuff (yes the video is mad old). Nope. Rocawear only showing ProKeds Roc style not the canvas ones.
Went to ProKeds site (totally taken over by Hip Hop with background music by Dame Dash? LOL) . I went to the vintage are (womens first and then men) and no.
Since it can’t be Pro Keds, I am CONVINCED that it must have been Converse. That helps a little cause I can look at the hard to find womens sneakers on Zappos andConverse’s website and I think I see the color…

Rich Boy featuring Keri Hilson and Pilow Da Don – GOOD THINGS
Maurice Richards (born September 2, 1983 in Mobile, Alabama), best known by the stage name Rich Boy is an American rapper. He is famous for his debut single “Throw Some D’s“. His debut album Rich Boy was released in early 2007.
An interesting note on his Wikipedia profile: Rich Boy quit his study of engineering at Tuskegee University in order to concentrate on music. With a few demo releases, he was noticed by producer Polow Da Don (who had already produced numbers for Ludacris, Jamie Foxx and Fergie).
Very interesting. At least he has something to fall back on and finish cause he got in there somehow. But this is not why I posted this video… cars, kicks and fashion is why I posted this video! (more…)

CLASSIC!!!! Timeless!!! I really liked this song and the video. If anybody has a clue as to what old school car Nelly is standing next to, post your thoughts. I can’t tell what shoes the car got but I’m guessing its 64′s.
Nelly puts on a bunch of pairs of sneakers but the ones that stand out is the Air Jordan 8 White and Reds. The car Kelly is borrowing from her video boyfriend (and lets Nelly drive… GASP!!!) is the Mercedes Benz CLK-Class.
Can’t figure out the rest at this point. any help would be appreciated.

Bumped into this video today. Totally forgot that Nelly and the St. Lunatics made this. It was a hot video at the time and since it give props to sneakers (and definalty promotes the wild colors and custom make) and more paticulary Air Force Ones, I figure it belongs on Sneaker and Shoes featured videos.
Adidas gets a shot out as well as Puma so you can’t hate them for not mentioning the fact that people have all types of sneakers in their collection… but you need at lease one Air Force! LOL

While only shown for what amounts as the first verse of the song, the Chevy Tahoe becomes one of the girls in this video. Now this is what is funny to me. Almost every time I see the new Tahoe, it is in white and its got TIS (Twenty Inches Strong) shoes and the shoe match the car. Unless I am completely mistaken, the shoe on the Tahoe are T.I.S. If they are not, I’ll find out soon enough.
I’ll be looking for Missy’s Channel jacket and some of the other stuff I see in the video eventually. I think what they should do is give mea manafest of what is in the video so i can report on it… that would make things easier LOL

Well, while I wasn’t to fond of Amusement Park, I think 0 Cent did us a favor by releasing this one. While I am almost totally sure that the official video doesn’t look like this (with the blackbox, as they call it, looking like 42 street sign) but I’ll admit if they did make it look like this, it would have been quite original.
The cars? Ferrari Enzo. I also see the Lamborghini in the video too. And, if I am not mistaken, it looks like a Pontiac is also in the video.
And is it my imagination or does his chain have a TV in it??? lol Can’t tell what kind of sneaker he s wearing but I’ll guess that its G-Unit sneakers from Reebok.

Well aint this a catchy tune! But why is it part of my collection of videos on a site about sneakers, cars and fashion? Cause this video starts some cars (and bikes) and therefor it makes the cut (and yes I do have exceptions to my rule that a video excepted here has to have high fashion or star cars).
There are mad cars to ID here, but I’m gonna have to do that later cause I am sooo tired and I have a long day head of me since I didn’t go to sleep when I should have. I’m also trying to pick out what Lloyd is wearing in the video but I’m not as good eying brand name cloths as I am with car types and car rims.

Busta Rhymes – Fire It Up (Turn It Up Remix)
Trevor Tahiem Smith, Jr. (born on May 20, 1972), better known as Busta Rhymes, is an American hip hop musician and actor of Jamaican descent. Chuck D of Public Enemy gave him the name Busta Rhymes (from former NFL wide receiver George “Buster” Rhymes) after watching him perform.[1] He is also a follower of the Nation of Islam offshoot, The Nation of Gods and Earths. The most idiosyncratic personality in rap and possessor of its most recognizable delivery, a halting, ragga-inspired style with incredible complexity, inventiveness, and humor, Busta Rhymes was a member of Leaders of the New School and released two albums with the group before breaking out with a 1996 solo hit single, “Woo-Hah!! Got You All in Check.”
Classic video, starring the Dodge Viper as K.I.T.T. (at least that is what it seems like). I loved this remix and I only like the video because it has a car in it. Classic Hip Hop right here blasting through your speakers while wearing your Air Force Ones and/or Timberland boots.

Now you have to know why this is here. No, no one seems to be wearing the most interesting and hottest sneakers out right now that no one seems to be talking about… its because cars are in it. yeah, I know I said that I will be focusing more on fashion and sneakers, but I really do think I will continue posting car news and cool wheel shots.
I mean, lets face it, you going for the whole look, right? Shoes on your feet, shoes on you whip. Now where did I put my Sprewell spinners at?

Legendary Line-up?
What’s white and been worn all over (and no it’s not Britney Spears)? Here’s a hint: your favorite rapper and their least favorite nemesis wear them almost all the time. The inimitable Air Force 1 sneaker gets a cultural price tag for its 25th anniversary (“can’t buy this”) and a permanent hip-hop immunity from a group of legends, well 4 legends and another rapper known for his legendary hubris. KRS-One, Nas, Rakim, and Kanye West reminisce and react to the pearly white legacy of the most celebrated shoe in recent memory.

This remix was so good, I think I will be looking out for more stuff from Midas Touch.

Video Onyx & DMX – Shut’ Em Down – onyx, dmx, shut, down – Dailymotion Share Your Videos
Onyx. The hip-hop act who named themselves after a black stone. Clever, but just who are the bald-heads with knives?
In 1989, Onyx formed out of Queens, NY; consisting of Fredro Starr, Sonee Seeza (then known only as Suave), and Big DS. They released their first single under Profile records, “Ah, and We Do It Like This” to not much success. Two years later is when fate struck.
Onyx was going to demo off some tracks for Run DMC front man, Jam Master Jay, but there was a small problem. Big DS and Sonee Seeza were in CT at the time. Fredro Starr called up his cousin Sticky Fingaz who then worked at a barber shop but was always rhyming. Sticky Fingaz hooked up Fredro and did a demo to present to Jam Master Jay and he instantly loved the Madface sound. When presenting the tape to Def Jam, and Onyx returned to them, the first question was “Where’s the guy with the deep, raspy voice?”. Of course they were referring to the cross-eyed slightly insane member, Sticky Fingaz. The rest was history.
Wow… this is a throwback. You know when I think about todays rap artist, I wonder if they can get to a point where they had such raw energy like that. Some live up to it, others (as in most) do not. I think whats funny is that rappers like (and you might find this funny putting these 2 names together) Biz Markie and Onyx are considered one hit wonders even though from where I lived (NYC) they had at least 3 hits each (Onyx probably had 4 or 5).
Anyway, I picked this not only for its back in the day value, but for its shot of cars in the video and the fact that this is a straight banga for your car system while your driving down the street. Straight banga… I was wondering when I would use that phrase.

Another video from Rihanna that is SOOOO connected to the art of sexy chicks and hot whips (the ones you drive not the ones you…) I don’t really recognize the orange car except to say that it looks like a modified Nissan Z.
And the rims on that “modified Nissan Z” looks hot. I recognize them, but can’t think of the manufacturer or the name. Sorry guys! I hope to do better to identify stuff on these videos (from fashion to shoes)
As for the video, I think its pretty cool. It works. The song is kinda pop-ish but that’s fine.
Overall a good look ESPECIALLY since cars star in the video.
