THE MAIDEN BRAND

Maiden from Madison Dyer on Vimeo.

I think just about everyone I know is doing it pretty big right now whether it be music, art, fashion, etc..everyone is doing it up. Art students Mike Perry and Woody Harrington are the founders of The Maiden Brand judging by the logotype that was made up already I'm seeing big things from the pair. The video introducing the two as artists and designers has the feel of two kids playin in a screenprinting studio but these kids are actually producing some sick stuff. Me being their mentor of course, know a thing or two of what they have up their sleeves so just stay tuned.

COLORS IN THE AIR

Yeah so I was looking for a new screen printer for Jus Ink and I got put on to this dude pat from my boy Gbenga. So I messaged the dude and we exchanged creative views and the magic is happening now and of course this dude has his own side hustle. Hes the drummer of the band Colors in the Air who just released their new album titled Floating Vessels. Well I guess side hustle could be an understatement these guys just got off the warped tour and are about to release a music video, guess you could say their doing it big haha. Anyone who is doing what they love and has a passion for what they are doing I'm definately behind them a hundred percent. So the drummer Pat Williams has a clothing line coming out called LKPT which stands for Lockport..where he's from. We set up a collabo deal where he takes a fraction of Jus Ink clothes to sell and I take a fraction of LKPT clothes to sell so that we can introduce each others clothes to Philly and upstate NY. Loving the support ..the more you give out the more you recieve God is love..REV RUN ..nah chill..JUS INK.

CANADA

Chillin in Canada this summer seeing for the first time what it had to offer. Although I didn't get the chance to hit up all the cool spots that I had planned I did get a ride on the flat escalator in Wal Mart. Maybe its just me but we do not have these in America well at least not on my side of the tracks, had to take a pic of my bro riding it (felt like it was something wrong with putting kids pics on the internet under the age of 18 so i gave him that cartoon eye..idk it felt right). So other then the "futuristic" escalator I was actually impressed with niagara falls watching the light show from the ferris wheel in mini vegas was kool. Next time I hit up Canada Im definately gonna check out Toronto and all the sneaker spots and music scene maybe meet the cast of Degrassi haha.
