AUM BRAND X JILTED ROYALTY


Amar Stewart and Jay Read have got together to collaborate with their clothing brands Aum Brand Jilted Royalty.
Amar got in touch with Jay in the summer with the idea of working on a few limited pieces. Rather than the usual photo shoot approach they decided to document each step towards the finished product.

As an introduction for the collaboration Aum Brand x Jilted Royalty, Amar created a mural using a number of Jay's tattoo's along with his own Marvel character 'Reptile Read'.

The 1st collaboration garment will be available at the beginning of 2011 through aumbrand.comjiltedroyalty.com
also at selected stores in London and Birmingham.

'70's KIDS' BY GRAFFITI KINGS


Just stumbled across this amazing street art film on http://www.ukstreetart.co.uk/ coming out. '70's Kids' is a Graffiti film not like any other Graffiti film, staring New York Graffiti Kings like BladeTracey168TKidFumeCoCoRolieo DienMare 139Dr Revolt DazeHenry ChalfantMartha CooperEric HazeCope2Meres One & Dizm. The film is the 1st of a trilogy regarding the health issues of spray paint, part 1 is all about common sense advice with a few stories about how people are/was? Iz affected by spray paint, its not until part 2 & 3 that we dig deep and start shaking up the Graffiti world with chilling health issues and facts.
'70's Kids' will be premiered for FREE on the 1ST of November at 11:PM
CHECK OUT THE TRAILER!!
In my little world its been a good year for documentaries! i saw 'American hardcore' for the first time which cleared up most of the fluff you here about the hardcore scene thus blowing my shit apart! lol Then my love of city skating was re-kindled with the release of 'Deathbowl to Downtown'. Ive been on the edge of my seat and pretty much chomping at the bit for another film speaking for the underdog to un-earth some more TRUTH!
Everyone needs to support this film....finally a chance to see appreciation for an art form desperately trying to be made a household bore by indie hipsters. Films like these are notibly forgotten about coz they're not 'VICE' enough for the mockney generation so its important you go and watch this and even spreadingthe word wouldnt hurt :)
Literally SO excited to see this and the ones to follow when they come out!!
SO YEAH! 1/11/10 - 11pm - www.graffitikings.co.uk .........BE THERE!!
Mad rating to the Graffiti Kings!!

Jailbate in Paris

Sooo, I recently got back from the best weekend away in Paris ever. Mainly because the passengers on the trip consisted of borderline alcoholic Kingston University students...
I found some pretty interesting stuff on my two day adventure, including a Chicken Shop on Boulevard de Sebastapol (handy to know...) I should have got some hot wings but instead I lived on cigarettes, coffee and croissants for the entirety of the trip.

One thing I did love about Paris is that there is AMAZING graffiti everywhere you go. I saw very few shit throw up tags the whole time I was there.
.....and there were also some amazing shops. The first shop I found was this SICCCKKK place on Rue Saint Denis (off Boulevard de Sebastapol) called Ruffneck. They stock loads of hip hops favourite brands and have the most amazing baseball jackets ever for like 55.00 €. For some reason every sportswear shop had SOO much DC stuff. They love up DC en Francais.
 On my way to find Rue St Honoure coming from Rue de Rivoli, I found Deep Store on 36 Rue Bourdonnais. Tucked away on some random little lane this shop had an amazing selection of Nikes..esp the limited Air Jordans. They also stocked some great New Era fitteds and WESC stuff..but what the hell is with all the damn Franklin and Marshall??
I also found the Paris Carharrt and Vans Stores right next to each other. On Rue St Honoure once again...sick road to go to if you go to Paris trust...
This store (pictured below) was called CELL DVSN. CELL DVSN are a french streetwear brand and originated in Paris. They work with some of the best artists and designers in the world to produce some amazing print designs. A bit like a French Upper Playground. Check there website here http://www.celldvsn.com/
The highlight of my weekend was incidentally bumping into the JC/DC store on Rue Vauvilliers. JC de Castelbajac is one of my FAVOURITE designers EVER!!! I was overly stoked on getting to see this parisian designers Paris shop, even if I couldn't afford to buy anything =(
So yes. I highly recommend Paris. For drinking at 11 am, chilling, skating, shopping and smoking!! The bars and clubs are amazing (but expensive), the whole city is chilled out and EVERYONE smokes. More to come on my visit to Palais de Tokyo!!

10 foot.

There's been a lot of controversy over 10 foot recently going over peoples poncy graffiti. Well we love controversy. We also love anyone else that hates arty farty fags haha. Personally I don't have a problem with him going over Banksy. We all know that anything that goes on a wall is gonna get gone over in minutes... if your art works so good go get it put in a gallery or do it on a canvas! The streets walls are for vandals...that's the way it's always been why are we gonna let anyone change that?
We'd love to interview him for the mag.
I like his steez.. rather ironic.




Here's some pics I took on the way home the other day....








Thumbs up from Jailbate lol.....
