• Kanye West and G.O.O.D Music at SXSW
4 CommentsKanye West made an appearance at this weekend’s South by Southwest Music Festival on early Sunday morning in Austin. Also taking the stage with him were fellow G.O.O.D Music artists Big Sean, Pusha T, Mr. Hudson, Kid Cudi, Mos Def, Cyhi da Prynce and John Legend. During his set, Kanye changed outfits twice. He entered the stage wearing an all-black outfit as opened with “Dark Fantasy.” Mid-set, Kanye changed to an all-red outfit for performances of “Say You Will,” “Runaway,” and “All of the Lights,” the last of which he brought out a full marching band. For the last part of his set, which included Jay-Z and Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon, Kanye changed back to an all-black outfit and wore a pair of Jordan 6 Infrared shoes.
• Turn Back Thursday: Crooks and Castles x G.O.O.D. T-shirt
4 CommentsLos Angeles-based brand Crooks and Castles has exponentially grown as a clothing company and has arguably become one of the most sought-after Street Wear labels this decade.

However, of all the Crooks and Castles collaborations, one has to admit that the t-shirt with Kanye West’s record label G.O.O.D. Music undoubtedly ranks as one of their best projects. Here’s a photo from 2007 of Kanye wearing the black Crooks and Castles x G.O.O.D. t-shirt, which was the most coveted colorway of the two released.
• Kid Cudi’s Louis Vuitton Don’s
17 CommentsKanye West’s record label G.O.O.D. Music boasts the tagline, “The Best Dressed Record Label,” so it’s a must that every artist must come fashionably correct. From the luxury backpacks, Jesus pieces, and sneakers, they essentially have style down to a science. With the recent release of the Kanye West and Louis Vuitton collaboration sneaker, it’s only proper for the G.O.O.D. artists to support both mega brands. Here’s up-and-coming artist, Kid Cudi rocking a pair of the Louis Vuitton Don’s with Don C, who ironically enough is the reason for the name of the sneaker, brushing the Don’s in approval.
• Big Sean’s Net/Net Air Yeezy
3 CommentsBig Sean, an artist on Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music label, received his Net/Net Nike Air Yeezy 2 weeks early, likewise with Ibn Jasper. Personally, I’m not too interested in the 3rd installment of the Yeezy, which I believe is the general consensus among Sneakerheads, so the pictures don’t do too much for me, but I sure am envious of that Range Rover.
