TURBOCITY THREAD COUNT: HIERO JEANS
by C-Town on May 24th, 2007
Yea, you read it right. The Hieroglyphics Crew have tossed their hat into the fashion ring with Hiero Jeans. Regular jeans, folks, that can possibly compete with the standard tradition of denim. They look official enough to rock, no bulletin boards on ya ass, and no gaudy imprints. They are going to showcase the new line at this years Magic Convention. They will also have lyrics from the crew inside of the jeans. You got to give it to Hiero, they have been able to keep the revenue flowing on their own terms, and this would be another extension of the Hieroglyphics Imperium Brand!
TURBOCITY THREAD COUNT:D-BOY/ ZACK MORRIS PHONE
by C-Town on May 18th, 2007
With all this hype about 80’s fashion making a comeback. Either go hard or go home posers. How are you so called hipsters rocking a Gold Rope Dookie Chain and having the new PDA or Razor phone in your stonewashed jeans pants pocket. The brick” weighed 2 pounds, offered just a half-hour of talk time for every recharging and sold for $3,995. That’s some real G Shit not only could you talk on it, you could whoop somebodys ass with that phone. So while the influx of hipsters try to dominate and rape the 80’s. Step your game up and cop the Zack Morris D-BOY phone, and start stuntin!
TURBOCITY THREAD COUNT: THE JORDAN LEGACY
by C-Town on May 8th, 2007
Nike saw something special in Michael Jordan, though. They saw a chance, an opportunity. He was a champion with personality, charisma, and heart, and they were willing to put the company on the line. They knew from the beginning that he would be a star and wanted to help him get there. Finally, after much persuasion from his manager and parents, the reluctant rookie agreed to fly to the Nike headquarters in Portland, Oregon to view a special video presentation and proposal though he later stated in retrospect that he went with no intention of signing with Nike.The video presentation featured slow-motion clips of Jordan’s college career and some of his high-flying Olympic moves with a background of then hit music “Jump” by the Pointer Sisters. Nike Head Designer, Peter Moore presented sketches of AJ1 shoes, jumpsuits, and sports apparel, all in black and red. Michael’s remarks upon seeing the designs were less than enthusiastic. He is reported to have said,
“I can’t wear that shoe, those are Devil colors”
Throughout the entire meeting Jordan was reported to seem disinterested and bored, but as he and Falk left the meeting, Jordan said to his agent, “Let’s make the deal.”
A Legacy (and a Controversy) is Born
With those four words, the Air Jordan legacy was born. Nike signed Jordan to a $2.5 million deal for 5 years, plus royalties and other fringe benefits. Peter Moore created the first AJ Logo with a basketball with wings lifting it. The introduction of the Air Jordan I turned the athletic shoe industry upside down. Before the AJ I, most basketball shoes were white, but the bold black and red styling of the Jordan I flouted this convention. The NBA banned the shoe from the league in response, but Jordan wore them anyway, racking up serious fines of up to $5000 a game. Nike, of course, was more than happy to pay these to keep the shoes on Jordan’s feet and in the public eye. All this controversy and Jordan’s spectacular numbers that year served to put the Air Jordan line on the road to becoming a household name.
