Longtime Mishka supporter and Maybach Music man Wale stopped by our 350 Broadway store last week, still riding high off of the massive success of his sophomore LP Ambition.

The be-dreadlocked rhymespitter, who is currently on tour for the album, has had a pretty great year. Even his unofficial #MMG is EPIC mixtape has been blowing up.

We’re all really happy this dude got hooked up with the incomparable energy of Ricky Rozay and is fully reminding everyone why he’s one of the strongest MC’s in the game. Though I wasn’t in the store at the time, I’m gonna assume that Wale and his entourage took their customary turns on the Street Fighter II machine.

Dubstep DJ/Producer John ’12th Planet’ Dadzie dropped by the LA shop a few days ago. Fresh off his recent tour with Skrillex, and after putting on a dope set at one of our recent Check Yo Ponytail 2 events, 12th Planet rolled through to get an update on his wardrobe right before heading off to yet another one of his many shows this year as part of his current “The End Is Near” tour.

If you follow Mishka then you know John is family and we are always glad to have him stop by and just shoot the shit for a while. As usual he shared some info on upcoming projects and tour dates which to my surprise seem never ending. I don’t know how this dude does it but I admire his ability to play shows night after night without much of a break. Be sure to check out his Facebook page for updates on his current tour and make it a mission to catch him before time runs out.

Man o man o man… For an LA native, music producer & emcee The Alchemist is one of Los Angeles’ hip hop & music community’s pride & joy. Do Cypress Hill, Soul Assassins or DJ Muggs ring a bell? Yea exactly… And for me as a junior high kid, I first heard Al’s music on Defari’s (LA emcee & high school teacher) classic album Focused Daily.

All hip hop heads should be quite familiar with him as well with production, credits & a discography that is seemingly endless: Mobb Deep, Dilated Peoples, Ghostface, Nas, RA the Rugged Man, Pharoahe Monch, Capone-N-Noreaga, Pun, Styles P, etc etc etc etc etc etc. Those were just the ones that immediately came to mind. Oh yea he deejays for this dude named Eminem, that is all…

So for Alchemist to show love for Мишка & our Death Adder Nation, I can’t lie…I was semi geek’d. He even shared a story of lurking our online store for that DA Varsity jacket which we had a surprise for him when we stitched his name on it. It’s also worth mentioning he is one of the most humble and easy going people you will come across. He’s currently got a project out with Stones Throw artist Oh No called Gangrene that they are touring overseas for.

And they will be doing dates across the US soon so be on the lookout for that. Peep our man Action Bronson’s hilarious cameo in Gangrene’s new video for “Vodka & Ayahuasca.” Stay in tune for some Alchemist bangers with Bronson, eXquire & Roc Marci to name a few…

Friday was really loose butthole until we got a surprise visit by mopsters and funnymen Blake Anderson and Kyle Newacheck from Comedy Central‘s hilarious hit show Workaholics. In town to check in at the CC headquarters while also hard at work (as always) writing the third season, the two dudes make sure to come by 350 Broadway.

Blake has been sportin’ Death Adders on the show for a minute, and was even nice enough to do a very funny interview with me last year. Kyle, who you’ll see pop up on Workaholics here and there as drug dealer and rape van owner Karl, is also a co-creator and frequent writer director. Thanks for dropping dudes,  we can’t wait for season 3.

Meet Pavel Lilienfeld. He’s a television commercial producer who lives and works in Moscow. He also happens to be a big Мишка fan, and stopped by our 350 Broadway store on his way through NYC.

We always love to get fans from around the world coming in, especially ones from the mother country. But Pavel brought something extra cool with him.

See, Pavel was recently working on a commercial for a Russian mobile phone company called Tele2. At the end of the commercial, there’s a shot of a bunch of young hip Russians hanging out in a bar, presumably enjoying the full service they are receiving from Tele2. The creative director, however, didn’t think that the guy in the shot was wearing cool enough clothes.

Enter Pavel, who was wearing a Oversized Adder T-Shirt. Because it’s Russia, the director demanded Pavel give the actor the shirt off his back, and now we’re in a Russian telecommunications commercial. We’re fuckin’ famous yo!

‘Bama in the building yo! SortaHuman homie Dizzy D dropped by the 350 Broadway store (he’s in the krispy shirt) to say whatup and pay respects to the temple of the bloody eyeball.

Dizzy has popped up on a bunch of SortaHuman tracks, including “Hadouken!”, so he better have gotten in a game or two on our SFII machine (you knew we had one of those, right?)

He even did some of the production of the fire Stonergang mixtape. Dizzy D was in town with his buddy/collaborator Shedrick Pelt shooting a video for a track off of Dizzy’s Elevation mixtape, his debut solo project which you can check out here for a taste of what’s popping off in Huntsville.

Future, the man behind the surprise hit “Tony Montana” (y’know, that earworm that’s been stuck in your head for the past few months) stopped by our 350 Broadway location recently to hang out and do a little interview with Greg for The Fader.

I happen to be a fan of Auto-Tune rap (sorry?) and the truly bizarre vocal inflections it produces. Future’s inimitable repetitions of “Tony Montana” are so strange that they eventually begin to lose their original meaning some sort of borderline mystical chant.

Aaaannyway, as I mentioned The Fader saw some sort of heretofore unmentioned thematic connection between us and Future, so they trucked him out to our store which, apparently, is “in the cut” (his words) to talk about his fashion swag.

Our co-founder Greg was also on hand to further explain what a big part music, and especially recently rap music plays in the brand. Check out the interview, I’m gonna go walk around and say “Tony Montana” a bunch of times and feel weird about myself.

UK hardcore punk band, Gallowsset fire to the streets of Brooklyn and lit a bunch of shit on fire before stopping by our 350 Broadway Store to do a little bit of shopping. Perhaps you remember their 2008 single “Just Because You Sleep Next To Me Doesn’t Mean You’re Safe”? I wanted to put that as my quote in my high school senior year book. They wouldn’t let me.

You know, it’s very fitting that this is posting today, as Gallows just dropped a new EP! Today! That’s why it’s fitting. Death Is Birth is a collection of four songs, one of which, “Mondo Chaos“, is the band’s new single. And as is tradition with singles, there’s a sweet new video to go along with it, featuring motorcycles doing wheelies. Remember Heelys? Those were dope.

Fuck the world and start listening to Gallows. Or keep listening to Gallows.

Get out your earplugs kids! We had Danny Terchin AKA Dannibal Corpse, drummer for Chicago deathcore band Oceano stop by our store. Isn’t it always the nicest looking guys who end up pummeling the skins in a death metal band, amirite?

In case you don’t know, Oceano’s music is heavy as fuck, thanks in no small part to Mr. Corpse here. Danny’s been known to rock Mishka in the past, and if that’s a Road To Ruin crewneck I see on him, looks like in the future as well. Oceano’s album Contagion is out now.

We were extremely pleased and a little fanboyed out to have the one and only Bun B stop by the 350 Broadway Store recently. Growing up as a nerdy and generally lame suburban white kid, the first time I heard UGK’s Ridin’ Dirty my face pretty much just fell off. I would like to hope that perhaps some of you shared in that experience.

Despite the end of UGK (RIP Pimp C), Bun B has continued to exhibit his trill flow over some real dope solo albums, including last year’s Trill OG, and a bunch of guest verses. He is, apparently, also a fan of Night Slugs, which makes me like him even more. I think the lesson here is: come by the store and you might meet some of the best rappers of all time. Of all time yo!

In the meantime check out Bun and Big K.R.I.T. in new guest spots over Jackie Chain‘s latest video “Parked Outside.”
