I don’t know if we’ve got any sneaker fiends out there, but I just came across this on some website that probably has something to do with music or fashion. Looks like Puma will be collaborating with A Tribe Called Quest to release a Tribe-themed Puma Clyde. It’s going with the red, black, and green lines you see on the Tribe character, kind of what you’d expect.

I mean, personally, some of these kinds of shoe designs I like, even if I know I can’t actually pull them off myself. I mean, that picture above? In the header? The guy playing pool in a bar? That’s me. I just don’t know if I can rock the red, black, and green. It’s not like my MySpace name is Spear of Africa or anything.

Still, sorry for the weak picture of the Tribe Clyde, seems to be the only one I can find. I’ll see if I come across any better images during my usual attempts at dodging the Friday drudgery at work by looking up footwear.

And, hell, because I hate posting anything that doesn't have a song or two to check out, here's some Tribe, compliments of YouTube. First, in honor of my new(ish) iPod. . . notice anything in the "Bonita Applebum" video similar to a certain ad campaign? Too bad they didn't just use "Bonita Applebum" for the commercials, it sure as hell would have beat that shitty U2 song they were playing for a while. Not that I want to ruin this moment with talks of U2.

Then how about a little “Oh My God”? I just put it in one of my own mix-sets the other day (the vocals go nice with a certain Dabrye track, though we can get into that another time), so I’ve been listening to a bit of Midnight Marauders again lately. And the video has Busta going kind of crazy. Work checking.

And, even though I don’t have any real story behind it, hell, “Electric Relaxation” is just a nice track.
