Finally a video in color. Looks pretty good, but reminds me of something else that I cant remember. I'll have to do some research and get back to you guys.

Vans SK8-Hi Division 1 Pack

I love how this brand sticks to the same motif year after year. Vans works up a couple of Varsity-inspired SK8-Hi’s, as part of their Fall 2009 Collection. Both shoes feature a tonal, vibrant upper, sporting a red or royal blue finish. Aside from the color makeup are large embroidered Varsity numbers on the heels, spelling out 1966, and well as matching raised embroidered Vans stripes. Both are now available through select Vans stockists, including District Footwear.

Adidas Stan Smith Trefoil Mid Pack

Creating an offspring of the original Stan Smith, adidas works up a new pack of sneakers entitled the Stan Smith Trefoil Mid, from the adidas Comfort Pack. Both kicks feature a mid/hi cut, packaged with a 3D Trefoil side emblem and ultra light uppers. Two colorways were released, including an Eggplant Purple and Metallic Gold, both of which are now available through Schuh-You. These purple ones look shockingly similar to my purple Supras.

Drake Speaks On The Bet Awards And The "Every Girl" Controversy

In a recent Interview with Complex Magazine, here is what Drake had to say about the "Every Girl" performance on the BET awards with Lil Wayne's kids.

Complex: Speaking of basketball, you tore your ACL playing basketball, right?

Drake: Yes sir. It was intense casual, I guess [Laughs]. It was just a regular pick up game and I just took the wrong step.

Complex: Damn, that’s horrible. At the BET Awards this past Sunday, everyone was shocked to see you sitting on a stool. Did you ever think to yourself, Maybe I shouldn't perform?

Drake: That, actually—to be honest—was a terrible idea that I’ll never do to myself again. [Laughs] But I was being pressed from different areas to perform, and I think what really happened at the BET Awards is with the passing of Mike, the climate really changed, as far as the award show goes. I don’t think it called for us to perform “Every Girl” and “Always Strapped,” and I think it was an award show filled with tributes and music and these genuine heartfelt speeches. And to sort of climax out of a very tongue-in-cheek point, and then people misconstruing Wayne’s daughters and her friends coming out on stage…

Complex: Yeah, it really was an awkward moment.

Drake: Yeah, it was just timed very poorly and it definitely wasn’t planned like that, but with that being said, it is what is. I believe in Wayne and myself and it’s nothing we can’t bounce back from. To anyone who was offended, my personal apologies, it wasn’t intended to offend anybody.

Complex: Watching it at home, the BET Awards seemed to be a mess. Did it seem that way in person?

Drake: Well, I can only speak for my portion of it. I had asked for something very specific for my performance and none of those were met, as far as production value, so…

Complex: That’s BET for you…

Drake: I understood my situation, as far as sitting in one place, and figured there was a way to make it interesting. But when I looked around and noticed that none of that was going on [laughs], I kind of just realized that it was going to be a loss for me. But at the end of the day, it is what it is.
