Re Rata Kelis!



Kodwa le video...


The Ordinary Girl already said she wasn't feeling this track but is a cameo by her baby, Knight, enough to save the video? Is anyone else getting the feeling that Kelis is channeling Janet circa Velvet Rope times? No? Just me then... as you were.

ETC Crew


Now lately The Ordinary Girl and Dude don't get out much but this weekend we gave it our best shot. We dragged ourselves out to O.S.T. where the ETC Crew was the featured act at this month's Party People. To be completely honest, we were not too familiar with the crew (we basically had to wikipedia and google them til we found the above awesome picture on their blog. Ahem... No shame in our game). So we had a little pow wow to get familiar with the fellas and talk about music, foreign lands and of course, sneakers.



And part 2

Wale Is A Rude Boy?


Well when it comes to Rihanna's certified banger, he sure does take it take it take it take it to another level. The Ordinary Girl stans hard for danyelliot so she found Wale's Rude Boy remix on the male half of this pair's site Rap Radar. I wanted to post a pic of the rapper with this post but Ri-Ri's photo is so much better, don't you agree? Makes you wanna give the drummer some? Ok, jokes aside, what do you think of the joint?

Don't wanna time travel no more? You just want to be here? Since we already have you here why not stay and take a look at Erykah's new video for Window Seat. It's caused quite a stir in these mean internet streets but I guess as long as people are engaged in dialogue it's all good right?

Oh and Puleng, you might want to pay attention to that "Groupthink" concept.



UPDATED TO SAY: Rap Radar had The Analogue Girl's breakdown of why she made Window Seat this way off twitter first. See it below:

Yo, Jury!



For their 2010 Spring/Summer (which is fashion speak for "ask Milli what that means"), Dior Homme brought out a carazy hi-top sneaker. We guess the simplistic nature of the almost Timb-like shoe coupled with the fact that it comes in four colourways is an attraction. We also like the fact that they have a very Yohji Yamamoto vibe about them.



But are you guys feeling those laces? And what about that zip in the back? When is too much just that: too much? Or is this what it means to wear haute couture? Again, ask Milli! Hehehehe. theblagg is kinda feeling these but we're not sure we'd spend Jelly Beans money on them. Not even if we found knock offs at Campus Square. What say you jury (yes, all ten of you)?
