What clubs are you going to? None of the shoes you posted would be appealing in any upscale, adult clubs I've ever been to. Granted, I haven't been to German clubs, but unless German women are drastically different from French, British, and Americans in terms of taste, I have no idea how wearing those could make you look good in any non-athletic situation.

Very nice blog. Found some stuff interesting, some, not so much.

Since everyone seems to like the shoe topic... these are the perfect balance between wanting to wear sneakers and wanting to not look like a kid in athletic shoes. imo

Hmm, 2011 wasn't that good a year for hip hop. Some albums I did enjoy (in order):

The Roots - Undun (probably the best hip hop album of 2011)
Jay-z and Kanye - Watch the Throne
Saigon - Greatest Story Never Told
Kendrick Lamar - Section.80
Royce da 5'9" - Success is Certain

That said, I'm almost always a year behind in music. I generally wait until the end of the year to scour "best of" lists for new music. Your question reminded me that I haven't looked at DJ Premier's yearly list of the top 25 albums, so I'll go do that now

yeah the "watch the throne" LP was good, but when it comes to hip hop in 2011 I surely remember Tyler the creator`s "goblin" LP. His kinda bored-acting rapstyle was fun to hear.

p.s. Clams casino is great.

Bon Iver is probably my album of 2011. I saw them when they came to London and they were awesome although their live sound is quite different to their studio stuff. They played with a much bigger band and a rockier set but interspersed with the intimate, acoustic songs which made them so well loved.

Gonna take some time to go through your other albums. I listened to some of them when you first put them up but none of them really stood out immediately.

converse (and all the converse-looking ones) is probably the only exception imo

I agree with James Blake but i don't find his music reflects the early dubstep ethos or feels like its connected to where it started either. It's hard to describe exactly what that is, but as Mala said his music reflects the feelings about living/growing up in London. I did myself and can definitely feel the atmosphere reflected in dubstep and some drum n' bass very well. James Blake grew up in London too but his music is not like say, Burial's first album, in how it feels at least.

This might sound weird, but I feel like James Blake reflects Burial & co. but it sounds a lot more "hollow," whatever that means. It's hard to describe the differences without using oddly specific words.

P.S. High five for growing up in London. Unfortunately I don't live there anymore.

I love these things, JWD. It's been too long!

The bit on shoes was cool. Could you do an entire wardrobe blog? For bitter's sake, of course.
I have an ice-cold beer, everything is possible.

Clams Casino, A$AP ROCKY, Danny Brown, Death Grips, Shabazz Palaces, and Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire were all pretty great.

JWD did you check out the leaked Grimes album, shit is great.
