Diplo & Friends went down on Saturday, the first weekend of Miami Music Week or WMC depending on how long youve been attending this holiday. Among Diplos “friends” were Dogblood ( Skrillex + Boys Noize) as special guests. Dillon Francis was supposed to perform as well but he didnt make it. All good though cuz as you’ll see in the video, it was one of those nights. Major Lazer took their shirts off, and made ayy’body do the same. God bless all those lovely ladies twerking their hearts out. You are appreciated.
MIA Skate shop had a cool in-store for Primitive Apparel w/Van Styles, Claudia Sampedro, Rosanna Castillo and Iesha Marie. I got there just on time to get some flicks.
Ms @ClaudiaSampedro_ is a sweetheart. We spoke about Animaniacs, revolutionary dance moves and Atlantis. JK I was more like “Hi, bye, love your work!”
The lovely Rosanna Castillo at MIA Skate Shop
And of course, the man himself, Van Styles. Had a brief chat too. Humble cat, his style of photography is inspiring. I highly recommend his work.
Its been a minute since Id seent Klever. I think the last time I actually saw him was almost 2yrs ago here in Miami. Hes been back since but I couldnt make it out. Friday night he was at the Garret spinning theee most ignorant hood shit there is. Straight dirt South ATL’n. Dirty dirt. It filtered out the untrill and showed who was wearing pannies and who was bout that life.
Some dude walked up to me w/his girl by his side like
“Hey,do you know the dj?”
-Yeah.
“You think you could ask him to play something else, or is he gonna play this all night?”
-Hes a dmc champ,you dont tell him what to play
Then I threw him out the window, and kept his girlfriend.
::trap elbows::
Long story short…
2 hours before they leave (from Miami), I find out I can ride w/them to shoot.
Bust mission to leave gig early so I can meet it on time. Got there on time.
30min in to ride up there, camera wont turn on.
Send out MASSIVE SOS’s the entire trip. Very close to success but in the end, no camera.
Sooooo close.
*Shouts to Serge and Roxie tho for helping.
Soooooooo I took a bunch of Vine videos to document and got le’ very drunk.
Work w/what you have and win.
First things first, a message from Brillz ft Craze and Kill the Noise.
Shouts to Louie, Craze, Serge and Rudy.
Fun trip overall.
I had the honor of shooting the lovely Sofia Roque’s video debut.
We’ve done several photo shoots together but really wanted to turn things up a notch.
This was a fun, spur of the moment, on the quick fast kinda thing we shot at headquarters.
But we’re quite proud of how it turned out.
Our cutoff logo tee, some music, a whole lotta laughing and you have, magic.
Thank you, Sofia <3
Hilary Coe is a part of the Can Love organization. They take scrapped cans to create new art pieces w/them. Everything from taking the can apart to using residual paint left inside. Dope.
All I can think is OMGAAAAAH THATS LIKE SO DANGEROUS!!!
Shout out to 90′s cinemax bikini’s and excuses to get closeups of butts. Respect.
And was that Lorenzo Lamas?
If it was, Sup dude?
