I’ve always been a big supporter of color. I love coordinating colors, buying colorful items and looking at skittles. To me the color a person wears on their clothing can determine what they are all about that particular day. However, I never thought I would live to see the day when a clothing line molested colors.
Thank-you Ed Hardy for giving me the opportunity to realize that yes, you can put a price on absolute bullshit. It’s just horrible how people actually think this shit looks cool on them. The concept of someone wearing tattoos on clothing makes me sick to my stomach as well as giving me a massive migraine.
If you wear Ed Hardy clothing or anything related to Ed Hardy...do you honestly think you look cool? Do you really think it makes you look slimmer? Just because Mommy and Daddy won’t let you get a tattoo doesn’t mean you have to commit to this disease of a clothing line.
Most of the people who wear Ed Hardy are celebrities who are paid to wear it and douchebags who want to look exactly like the buddy they walked into the club with. Oh yeah, and people who over-tan in the salons and turn out having the skin complexion of an oompa loompa.
Yes, this all might offend you but you have to realize that Ed Hardy is over-priced, over-done and easy-to rip. And when you do buy this shit, don’t forget to take off the TJ Max price tag.
The road to super- stardom can be a long and unpredictable journey. I believe in my heart that I have a a superior knack for spotting talent, and a great eye when it comes to predicting the next "Biggest Thing"
Our new magazine and blog "beScene" will be following local talent all over the world and keep you updated on how they are making their dreams a reality...or not.....
Brooke Helvie, in my opinion, has that "it factor"
I first met Brooke three to four years ago while I was djing an event at "The Players Club" in Wellington Fl. She was a hostess then, but I knew in my heart she was destined for greatness in some way.
Check out "The Players Club" Welllington here...The Players Club
About a year or two later, I met up with Brooke again while I was djing "Project Graduation" at Wellington High School, Class '07. She then informed me she was singing country music and was recording some songs. I got her myspace info and left it at that. Check her myspace out here.
Months later, I was djing a monday night event at a local Duffy's, where our theme was "Country". I gave Brooke a call knowing she was a great local artist and knew alot of people that would love to come see her perform.
Needless to say, she came and sang her heart out. The Duffy's staff, family and friends, loyal customers, and I, Nick flash, were all blown away.
Fairy Tales are real. We all hold the key that unlocks our enchanting destiny.It is up to us to dig deep into our imaginations and bring our fairy tales to life.
Skeptics will constantly try to persuade us that magic is all a trick, love is all an illusion, and there are never any happy endings. This type of pessimism is why nowadays fairy tales are few and far between. Violence is at an all time high, the divorce rate is through the roof, and books are being avoided by our youth in order to be entertained by video games & blue ray discs. It is clear to me that through Rosie Hardy's artwork, imagination & fantasy shall conquer all.
I recently discovered Rosie Hardy's photography on a blog called I Hunt Zombies and was instantly memorized. I had never really seen anything like it. Her self portraits are so surreal they look almost like a watercolor painting. I wondered just how in the heck she was able to create such images with only a camera and then It dawned on me...fairy tale magic.
Her photo's tell the stories of fantasy, wonder, happiness, sorrow, pain, tragedy and TRUE LOVE. After meeting her true life prince, Aaron Nace {on Flickr), their romance blossomed into into extraordinary works of art that gives 1,000's of their online fans hope that one day they will find their soul mate and live happily ever after. Read their incredible love story here. Rosie & Aaron's Romantic Tale
Rosie's Fairy-Tale is not all flowers & sunshine though, their are many out there who despise her for her imagination and romantic love life. Critics from all over continue to say her work is plagiarism, and they slander her in blogs and magazines from all around the globe. Here is one of her biggest critics...Rosie's ART Slander
While the agnostic will continue to live in their clouded world of pessimism and knock the existence of fairy-tales, it is up to us to truly look deep inside ourselves and use our wonderful gift of imagination to make all of our dreams come true. As you look at Rosie's photo's, you will become immersed in a land of fantasy you never knew existed.
Check it out once again and lemme know what you think.
The pictures I used for this blog were taken from her myspace with the intent ONLY to promote her Flickr and share her art with the world, not for financial gain or reproduction.
So much of my favorite hip-hop in the world has been created from sampling old school funk records.
Digital Underground's 1989 smash hit "The Humpty Dance" features excerpts from Parliament's "Let's play House" and puts a unique hip-hop spin on it. Buy it on Amazon!
