Work Out - J.Cole
J.Cole's newest single does not disappoint. The brilliant use of Kanye's “New Workout Plan" has got me even more excited for his debut album that's slated for release summer.

With Stanley's Classic Flask any closed bar wedding will turn into a party and you'll never have a good night on the town spoiled by a club's lackluster selection. Constructed out of Stanley's signature orderless and tasteless stainless steel, the Classic Flask holds 8 ounces of your favourite drink and features a wide mouth for funnel-less filling. Grip one today at your local Urban Outfitters.

Mama’s Boyfriend - Kanye West
Kanye West Mama's Boyfriend by skelton
More than a year later after Kanye's acapella performance at Facebook HQ, a produced version Mama's Boyfriend has hit the internet. It was rumored that this track was supposed to be a part of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, but now that I hear the actual song, I understand why it was omitted. It is a revert back to original Kanye sounds, if you don't know what I mean, pop in Late Registration after listening to this.
*update* no wonder this record didn't sound like it fit into My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
Universal Records
“The version of the Kanye West recording “Mama’s Boy” that arrived on blog sites earlier this week is entirely bogus and unsanctioned, and violates the artist’s creative intentions. As is often the unfortunate case, an unknown party or parties got a hold of Kanye West’s vocal track and added their own soundbed to it, effectively and falsely releasing it as a Kanye West track from the My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy sessions. The result in no way resembles the final song Kanye West intended his fans to hear, and he is deeply disappointed that one of the most personal, meaningful and special songs he has ever written would reach people in this way. Needless to say, measures are being taken to identify and prosecute the persons responsible for leaking this material.”

Incase Nylon Dop Kit
Before iPod's were around, these small specialty bags were a necessity for road trips to hold your Walkman (click the link if you have never owned a physical form of music), headphones, cassettes and of course spare batteries. Technology has come a long way, but the need for a storage travel bag is still there. Incase's Nylon Dop Kit measures 7.25" x 5.5" x 2.25" and is perfect to store your MacBook charger, USB cord, audio splitter and some small noise cancelling head phones along with your iPod or iPhone. Grip it today in either red, black or purple on Incase's online store or your local retailer before you next trip for $35 USD .
Nike TC FFF Prodigy Rescue Tru Swim Trunk
Not really sure how this synergy came to be, but Nike has teamed up with French Football Federation Prodigy Rescue to create these men's swim trunks. The shorts are made out of Nike's quick drying Pro Apparel material and feature a lace-up closure drawcord with a Velcro brand fastener at waist. Pick them up on the Caliroots or Nike online stores.

Supreme x The North Face
Recently Supreme eleased some images of a few of the items from their up coming Spring/Summer 2011 collaboration with The North Face. The best pieces are the Dolomite Sleeping Bags ($138 USD) that come in red, black and camouflage colorways. Pretty reasonably priced considering it's a Supreme creation. You should be able to find them this weekend in Supreme flagship stores or online.
Oakley Holbrook Root Beer
With summer just around the corner, it is time to dust off your sunglasses from your Canadian winter hibernation den. Now you could go with the classic Wayfarer or Aviator, but those are a dime a dozen with those coming back into style more than 5 years ago already. Or you could go with something like Oakley's Holbrook that draws inspiration from their traditional fogskin with the additions of an updated design, stress-resistance frame and polarized lenses. This root beer colorway is my favourite, but if you "don't want none of that stinkin' root beer" head to here to see other Holbrook colorways.
Air Jordan Photoshops by Jayzrdead
I have always been an OG Jordan colorway purist, but you cannot tell me with a straight face that you wouldn't jump all over these Yeezy inspired Jordan's done by Jayzrdead. Jayzrdead, I have no clue who you are, but I hope Nike has gotten in touch with you. See all Jayzrdead's Jordan creations here.

2011 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara
For 2011 Jeep has made big improvements to their Wrangler and 4-door counterpart the Wrangler Unlimited. Standard for all models is the re-designed interior, which previously had been one of the biggest desires in the rugged Wrangler. The modernized interior features soft-touch materials that create smooth, clean layout with chrome-ringed vents and up-to-date climate-control knobs. The Sahara model (as featured) comes standard with a cruise and audio control steering wheel, heated seats and heated power mirrors, all firsts for the Wrangler. The biggest aesthetic change is the optional color keyed hard top available on the Sahara models. This really gives the Wrangler a new look, and overcomes that awkward two tone on the 4-door Unlimited that always bugged me. To see more colours or to get more information, check out jeep.ca.

Google Art Project
Enjoy visiting the MoMa but live thousands of miles away to experience each new exhibit? Google has you covered with the release of their Art Project. Basically what Google has done is taken everything they have learned from street view, and applied it to various art galleries from all around the world. Right now the list of museums is short, but expect it to expand in the upcoming months.
