Johnny Cupcakes L.A. Shoppe Grand Opening

Woke up at a early 8am. Passing the Deserts landmarks

Road tripp







I don't know how many bridges I passed, but damn there were quite a few.




Ahh L.A. traffic


I saw this cat at a stop light. Just thinking.. not only are the people, but the animals of Cali are chill. Huh...


Never seen a ipod billboard before, definitely a eye catcher

Famous Fairfax

Finally made it!...Now to look for parking. ugh.

Bape across the street

Waiting..

Free drinks


Waiting..


Still waiting


While waiting.. We got bugged by this bee! or was it a beetle.. not sure
we got rescued though...


I saw this lady with a cool lookin.. I forget the word.. pink ladies? I forget. This old 50's looking dress. With the Johnny Cupcakes logo on it. A future Johnny Cupcakes women's item?? Or just a home made dress? I guess we'll find out..


Moving in the line, this girl came down with this oversized cupcake!maybe she brought it for Johnny, or he gave it to her.. huh..

Shouts to attic

This will be here for some time

Remember the vintage van that camped out 4 DAYS before the opening?


JOHNNY!

Weezy?

3pm. Opening. What the hell is going on?!



Almost there..



Now this guy was cool. Johnny had him take photos of the event all day. [he must have had some special cupcakes] So he passed by several times, taking random pictures when you werent even looking. I said, okay look.. How about this.. You take a picture of us, while I take a picture of you. Deal? Deal.


About a good 10 feet from the door.
This is around 7-8pm

No.. It cant be.. Am I finally in??

My freshly baked goods

Sweet sign huh?

Sweet door too huh?

In the back of the shop. V.I.P. With the sister's [Johnnys] friends.



On my way out.. Me and the sister [Johnnys]

Johnny Cupcakes x Casen Kreation

Over all.. The night was amazing. It was everything I wanted it to be and more.
He really went all out with this store. Probably the most creative store on Melrose.
And if you didnt make it out to the grand opening, then you really missed out.
Good job Johnny,

Kanye West Exclusive Gift Bag

Finally..
After months after the concert, I recieve my "Exclusive Gift Bag"
I was quite suprised to see FedEx out my window this afternoon.
Wondering.. What the hell did I order now..
But to my suprise, something I totally forgot about.
Kinda made me happy.
Although this gift bag wont compare to the backstage tour I recieved
Or the front row access I had either.
But nonetheless, some pretty cool stuff.

'99 Lakers LP

I feel like right now my career is like the 1999 Los Angeles Lakers. That season for the Lakers was insane. First of all the season was cut in half due to the NBA strike so the support of basketball was at an all time low. (Kind of how the music industry is now). We had two different coaches that didn't know what the fuck they were doing. We had crazy ass Denis Rodman and this was also the year that Kobe and Shaq first started to "feud". Most importantly it was their last season @ The Forum in Inglewood, California (my home town). The next season they packed up moved out the Forum, got a new coach, upgraded their uniforms, made a few changes and revived the Laker dynasty (My goal is to revive hip hop but more specifically the west coast). I have elements that are proven to be good like Kobe and Shaq and Glen Rice. But I also have certain elements holding me back like Corie Blount (random bench player from that team that sucked), Elden Campbell and Travis Knight, not having the right coach (management) and basically the pressure of trying to prove that this team is a championship winning team.



So I'm putting together a CD titled "99 Lakers LP". And basically it's a big ass metaphor that compares hip hop to basketball. Each song's titled after a Laker player from that year as well as other Laker related things. Each song represents that player's personality but at the same time has a reference to hip hop for example "Dennis Rodman" is a track with me spitting rebellious flows over a crazy ass rock and roll electric guitar and just crazy chaos on a track. I have a song called "Sean Rooks" remember him? lol, well the song isn't about him, it's a track dedicated all the "rookie rappers" out there, and how they need to learn how to grind to get that starting spot, instead of coming in the game thinking that they already have it made. The song titled "Jeanine Buss" is a track about gold digging women. I got a track called "Wilt Chamberlain" that's about sex and I think I set the record for the most basketball/sex double entendres in one song. It all makes sense haha. So this project is basically my 1999 season I'm going to get work all the bugs and come back strong new and improved for the next 3 years…I don't know what I'm a do after that though lol. I'm sure you get the concept now.


-THREE-1-ZERO



I personally have not seen him perform, due to the lack of being in the desert.
But have heard him spit on several tracks.

You might have heard him on the Intro of C-SAN's "The Birth"
He's also featured on hiphopdx.com, leave some comments.
You can check out THREE-1-ZERO on his space at myspace.com/310HIPHOP

The space will showcase the history of our brand, unveiling original artwork, catalogs and linesheets, memorable photographs, our favorite tees, never-before-seen shirts, and other memorabilia that have built the house of The Hundreds. We will also be releasing our first set of 5TH t-shirts, along with vintage shirts and some tees that you will only be able to buy from the 5TH store.
