Released about a week ago, the shirt pictured above is a collabo between Sir Touché Lupe and New Jersey sneaker spot Straight Laced in preparation for his upcoming album. The tee also features the 1st & 15th logo in what appears to be teal on the back (not pictured). I suggest googling the spot and trying to give them a call before heading out to Dirty Jerz if you’re interested, because it’s entirely possible these joints have already been going, going….gone.

Also, some more new music from one of our favorite Chi-Town spitters. I don’t see how the haters can hate really, when dude’s rhyme patterns are getting slicker by the minute. I was already impressed by a leaked track from a few weeks ago, but this right here…certified dope.

Lupe Fiasco – “Dumb It Down“

P.S.: If it’s crossed anyone’s mind why we haven’t posted even one of the ga-jillion remixes for “Crank Dat Soulja Boy”, my man Ron Mexico does an excellent job verbalizing my sentiments exactly here. You’d do well to bookmark his site. It just launched recently and I’m sure he has a gang of unparalleled hate and astute cultural commentary coming your way.
