Soo much Cool Kids wednesday!
Up front we gots The Cool Kids x Nike x Footlocker x Grotesk colab. And wait, is that (among less important others) El Heat’s Chris Bosh in the joint? Yessir.
After the jump there’s a parody clip for the Chicago/Detroit based “new black Beastie Boys”. Plus a free download of Bundle Up thanks to everybody’s favourite label, Green Label Sound.

Bridge Running: Nike x Tim Barber.
Love this. Nike gave the controls to photographer Tim Barber, and let him shoot black and film. You remember film, right? It’s that magical thing you put in the back of a camera and… oh forget it.
The point is, they could’ve got any chump with an EOS, but they didn’t. And the results is stunning. Big ups.

Lebron v Cleveland.
Wow. Cleveland is angry. And not disappointed. Angry. Looks like this grudge could get nasty. Let’s watch, shall we?
Above is the Nike ad. Below, the response.

Will.I.Am vs Will it blend.
Who would’ve thought that would ever be a ‘thing’. The nerdly folk over at Rubber Republic have infographiced the heck outta the internet’s most notorious campaigns of 2010.
I’m happy to admit that I am not responsible for bumping up the numbers on the B.E.P or Shakira’s World Cup songs. Or anything to do with Twilight. Nike, Old Spice and watching an iPad suffer - guilty as charged.
Check out the full graphic here.

To the five buroughs.
Nike’s throwing a block party. And they’re making ads. And hosting the World Basketball Festival. And releasing a limited edition Air Force One. It’s all very exciting. Here’s a breakdown:
Theophilus London is making Brooklyn proud. Harlem’s got Miss Banks. The Bronx unsurprisingly has a gangsta (the malacious?) Cory Gunz. There’s a BMX Lifestyle Crew (who knew that was a thing?) representing Queens. And even though no one really cares about Staten Island, it’s got this guy.

RZA puts metal on metal.
These new Nike 6.0 youtubes are pretty rad. Pretty much anything featuring the Wu’s RZA is. Here’s all three ads for afternoon inspiration. And if your boss has blocked the tube, here’s some quotes to get you through:
“Son is sick wid it.”
“Seen that son? That’s like speed on metal.”
“I mean he’s like quiet, but powerful. Like a pow-er ballad.”
“We gonna have to bring it up to date ya’ll.”
“Kolohe Andino, you got unlimited potential man.”

Remix The Future! Selectah!
Amazing. Nike’s Write The Future campaign may have racked up 18 million hits on YouTube, but if they really wanted the traffic, they should’ve released DJ Parker v Focus’s Hocus Pocus remix instead.Boooom!

We all could’ve had a Nike shoe named after us or been a guest on The Footy Show.
Obviously none of us did, or right now we’d be sitting on superyachts with our trophy wives, deciding on which Greek Island to spend the off season.
But you know what, it’s not your fault. You probably had a coach or parent who didn’t push you hard enough, or pushed you over the edge. So here’s a site where you can let it all out and point the pinger at those who hindered your success.
It was created right here by our very own Lana and Steve and brought to life by digital wizard Greg. Give it a go. You could even win sweet stuff like AFL and NRL finals tickets. Well, sweet If you can hold back your jealousy.

Nike’s written your future.
They’ve written everyone’s futures actually, and keep them in a locked crypt beneath their Portland HQ. It’s somewhere between the chambers of Kobe Bryant and Ronaldo clones and the safe that holds the Colonel’s secret recipe. Or so I hear.
So anyway, as we mentioned earlier, they made a three minute world cup ad and got Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu to make it look real purty. It goes without saying that you can expect everyone you’ve ever know to send this to you in the next 24 hours, especially your pommy mates (Or bosses).
Chris.
An ad for an ad: part two.
Seems to be the latest thang. Make a successful ad one year, and the next you’ve got a license to tease folks and make them wait in line to watch the following campaign.
Previously Phillips Cinema was guilty.
Now Nike is taunting us with a May 20th reveal.
No pressure guys, but Write the Future better be awesome. Or we won’t be fb friends no more.

Nike is full of Air.
Literally. But not literally. So fictionally.
David Koechner and a bunch of athletes who can’t really act bring this little ditty to life. Was that switch? It sure was.

Who doesn’t love a good Nike ad?
Question though… Do they really make Nike bull-riding gear? Or martial arts stuff?
Just wondering it.
