A NYC Bike’s Life Cycle

365 Lonely Days In The Life Of A NYC Bike

Have you ever wondered what would happen to your bike if you chained it to a post and left it there for a year? Have no fear! Red Peak Videos decided to document a New York City bike’s life cycle for 365 days by taking a picture of it every day. 

The bike was chained to a post on a frigid New Year’s day in Soho. As the days go by you see the bike slowly disappear. By day 238 everything that was attached to the bike wasn’t attached anymore, by 252 it was entirely destroyed, by day 270 the bike completely disappeared! 

The NYC bike lived a happy yet lonely life until around day 238, when everything it ever had was gone. 

In conclusion, you shouldn’t leave your bike chained up to a post for 365 days. So hipsters, beware. Your bikes will vanish before your very eyes if you leave them hanging around NYC alone for too long.

What you get now is just a preview We all tinted out, your car’s see-through I see you

State of Mind: Horse & Carriage

Before Cam’ron made ruity tuity rhyme with fruity…

Before Ma$e promised he would die high off weed and not off the high almighty bible…

Cam’ron and Ma$e collaborated and made “Horse & Carriage” a dope mix with a catchy jingle. This was the kind of music that embodied the “Harlem Swag” way before it was changed to the “Harlem Shake”

Game Highlights: The Crossover

Iverson Crossover Jordan. Rookie Vs Veteran

“New jack city gotta keep my brother/But to be number 1 I’m a beat my brother”

When you look up to someone admirably and then are in a position to play them literally and figuratively, You think of Iverson and his legendary crossover. When he crossed over MJ himself… now that was epic. Epic enough not to remember the score at the end. Personal win for Iverson. You got to respect it, we sure did.

FAN BOY DREAMGIRL | Yaris Sanchez

Shorty got potential

Yaris is probably one of the most sexiest women of this year.

Making an appearance on French Montana’s latest video and dating the infamous Joe Budden has this chick buzzing.

There’s really not much to say. She’s bad and here’s some pics and a video for you to gawk over.

Enjoy.

State of Mind: Jay-Z







You flash now but time will reveal money.

“Imaginary Player”

”..You probably ask me some stupid shit like, Yo! what’s the difference between a 4.0 and a 4.6? 30 to 40 grand cock sucker beat it……do them shits even got leathers?!”

DONE!

Real fact that you wont find on your snapple bottle cap, when that song dropped, the 4.0 Range Rover was discontinued. Any person riding in a 4.0 was ridiculed and striped of dignity in the streets. When it’s real, its a timeless. Sadly the imaginary players still live on and are multiplying at dangerous speeds in the Hip Hop industry today. 

“Where I’m From” 

“…and argue all day about who’s the best MC’s Biggie, Jay-Z and Nas”

This song had all of Brooklyn fist pumping…not Jersey Shore fist pumping, i mean black folks going gorillas, wiling out fist pumping. Including the population of 9 black folks in Brooklyn, Oregon (where is that by the way?)

“Who You With” 

“I love bitches, thug bitches, shy bitches/Rough bitches, don’t matter you my bitches/Gold diggers witcha eyes on my riches/Can’t Knock your Hustle for real, it’s alright bitches”

We only say bitches because we don’t know your names individually. We love you all

“Feeling It”

“If y’all dudes ain’t talking ‘bout large money what’s the point?”

We hate radio edits just as much as the next trill dude, but we actually like this edited semi PG version  of the original song. We enjoyed it so much that we followed the influence and edited the quote above. This positive influence is only temporary of course, we shall proceed to use profanity while quoting TM103

Video: On The Clock With FLüD - Dom Kennedy

Leimert Park Legend…

Check out our third installment of “On The Clock With FLüD” featuring Dom Kennedy. 

Dom came through the office to talk about why it’s so important to change as an artist, what he still hopes to accomplish in his career and much more.

Dom Kennedy had a helluva year in 2011. From The Westside With Love II was easily one of the illest albums to drop last year. “Grind’n” was played countless times in my car, home and office! That’s my shit!
