Bobbito just returned from a trip to Senegal where SEEDS Foundation invited him to coach clinics in four Senegalese cities over a three-day weekend. It is part of its GROW THE GAME program which helps kids learn how to play ball and inspires them to choose education as a route to self-empowerment. Read about his experience here.
If you didn’t get a chance to attend the Youth Run 4 Haiti, you can still help out by purchasing a Help Haiti tokidoki leopard shirt (as seen on Josh Duhamel) for $25. All proceeds will be donated to the Red Cross. Both men’s and women’s shirts are available at the Melrose tokidoki store and online here.
A top art critic from The Los Angeles Times once called Eriberto Oriol “a people’s aesthete for his discerning eye.” Indeed, Eriberto’s photos have a strong sense of perspective and composition. This formal sensibility is further elevated by his gift for capturing the raw essence and realities of L.A. Latino street life and instilled in Eriberto’s son, Estevan Oriol, at an early age. Altamont presents a video, in two parts, about its collaboration with Eriberto, directed by none other than Estevan Oriol. (from Hypebeast)

While we know everyone is focused on Haiti, we cannot tear ourselves away from the latest VBS TV series on Liberia. Straight craziness. More here. And people in the U.S. think they’re watching “reality” on tv…
Big up all massive and crew! We’ve just started the biggest tour of our careers and it’s been amazing thus far. We’re out with Rebelution and Soja, two dope reggae groups. It’s definitely a different look for us, and it’s been lovely! All of the shows have been sold out thus far, what a blessing! We’re hitting the entire US, so we’ll definitely be in a city near you. Check the dates and come out and experience the livest tour of 2010!!
