When I started Future Flavas the first thing I thought was "What Fcuk is a blog?" Two years ago the homie Boots Montana spoke highly on blogging and after a little reluctance Future Flavas was born.

Stack Bundles - Rock Scrams + Can’t Take That From Me


Says Skyzoo:

"Some of you might have known and some might not, but Stack Bundles (RIP) was a really good friend of mine as well as someone I was in a group with back in the day. So with that being said, I’m doing anything possible to help keep his name alive. Recently his best friends and family reached out and asked me to help with the promotion for a new Bundles project dropping TOMORROW with ALL NEW MATERIAL. For those that don’t know, Bundles had a Pac work ethic, so there are hundreds of songs he left to his friends and crew to get out if anything ever happened."

Oh Word?!

Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.

On The Sneak Tip: Air Jordan 1 Alpha “Tinker Hatfield”


The release of the Air Jordan 1 Alpha represented a contemporary update to the sneaker world’s most iconic and obsessive models ever, the original Air Jordan I. With technological advances of 2010 incorporated into an aesthetic still largely resembling the shoes originally worn by Jordan, an upcoming release features a version of the Alpha with colorways designed by Nike’s legendary designer Tinker Hatfield. The shoe will hit select retailers including UNDFTD

#Keepinit100 I've never been a fan of the Jordan Hybrids with the exception of the Spizikes. Connecting with Tinker Hatfield the creator of such classics as the number Jordan V (My personal favourite)is a good look.
