Hi-tops was a trend that symbolised the golden era of hip-hop & urban contemporary music in the late 80s & seems to be slowing returning..

When a Muslim fraternity from the University of Texas at Dallas took to the streets to protest against domestic violence, these striking pictures made waves around the world. Muslim America rocks — we just don’t hear about it often.

Mos Def Talks About Pac
“To truly understand Pac, you have to understand the Panther movement. The movement was purposely destroyed, and a lot of the Panthers’ families lives were destroyed. It didn’t just hit adults, but also children. Pac was one of those children. He was coming up out of a movement that was so dedicated and so strong, but lost. And in a lot of instances, in any war or tragedy,the people everyone talks about least, and last, are the children. People who were friends weren’t friends no more. A lot of people went to jail. A lot of people died, or were murdered. A lot of people just went crazy. And he was left to deal with that. as were most of the kids in the Panthers. That’s what Pac represented. It’s true he represented the best in human potential, but also represented a child at war: a child who grew into a man.
Coming from those circumstances, how much different would any of us be? How would we have grown up? Would we even have gotten as far as Pac did?” …
Respect Pac and Yasiin

“My mom died when I was eighteen. I acted like it didn’t bother me cause I was a punk rock kid. But I think it came back to me later in weird ways.”

This photo is part of a month-long collaboration I’m doing with Vogue.com. Vogue’s Met Gala has a punk rock theme this year, so they asked me to assemble a collection of punk-themed photos from the HONY archives. I’ve thrown in a few exclusives, also. Besides requesting “no cigarettes” and nixing a couple of portraits with egregious middle fingers, they were open to all sorts of personalities and let me have free reign with the selections. They were great to work with. We’re going to be adding a photo per day until May 6th, so be sure to check back.
It’s a cool collection: http://bit.ly/ZxixH5
