We closed out our Model x LTD+ summer series at the Rivington Hotel Rooftop with the homeys On Smash and Prohibit for “Fall Back” event. DJ Soul and Plain Pat held down the turntables while Hof, Chace Infinite, and Hawaii Mike tore the roof off with the rest of our evening’s patrons. Many thanks to everyone that came out to support all of our events this summer. Make sure to keep your eyes and ears alert for what we have in store for the Fall and Winter.

Modelo. LTD+. Black Apple. A team so powerful, a rain storm couldn’t stop us. We continued our Rooftop Event Series with an evening of Summertime movies, The Warriors and Do The Right Thing, music, tacos, and of course Michelada’s infused with only the finest of beers: Modelo Especial. Thanks to Dao-Yi, Maxwell, DJ Soul, IBE, Dhundee, Dex Love, and Brook Bobbins for the photo work. Check out Who Shot Ya? for more photos. Be on the lookout for our next events coming up this month!

We were back at the Hotel on Rivington this week for part two of our LTD+ x Modelo Especial rooftop event. This time, we helped our friends at Clae celebrate their 10th year anniversary. With an unlimited amount of Modelo Especial to go around, with the added hot sauce/worcestershire kick, along with tunes by Cool Calm Pete, DJ Spinna, and Mathieu Schreyer, the event was another success.

Many thanks to Modelo and congratulations to Clae for a decade of fresh footwear!

For the the final day of Summer, Fool’s Gold, along with Jelly, The Fader, City Winery and tours truly, LTD+, put on “Day Off”, a free (yes, FREE) all ages get together to celebrate Labor Day. The crowd vibed to great sets from Nick Catchdubs, The Suzan, Slow Roast Crew, Just Blaze, The Brothers Macklovich, Pill, Donnis and Yelawolf.

As summer continues so does the Summer Series BBQ’s at the infamous 29 Greene. Last Friday, the homies from the eastern side of the world brought their best stuff, as Mama O’s Premium Korean Kimchi teams up with the folks from LTD and Etnies. Kimchili, Kimchi Salsa, and Kimchi Dogs were the wanted items on the menu, as familiar faces from the neighborhood grubbed down on everything “Kimchi”.

Last Friday, July 9th, Rad Collector, LTD and etnies brought some friends out for another Summer BBQ on the rooftop. This time it was a joint (no pun intended) birthday celebration for Timbo/Rad collector and “Hawaii” Mike/LTD, cake and all. The food and beer was flowing thanks to our friends at Corona and cool summer cocktails by Tanteo Tequila. Shouts to all those who came through, check the pics, sure you’ll see some familiar faces.

New upcoming rapper “STS” is putting Philly on the map as he launches his first new video for his new single “Sole Music”. Featuring the lovely harmonic voice of Ming, STS has been rapping underground, and its time he made his public debut.

Just a lil recap, the young emcee, STS was spotted last month performing live at the LTD office (our home) with the lyrical legend “Black Thought” from The Roots, for the Mel. D. Cole x Etnies collab party.

The young rapper delivers slick punchlines about the vices of the hood: love and kicks all in one the catchy tune “Sole Music”. So “kick your shoes off” and enjoy, and make sure to peep a cameo of the “Village Slum” Mel D. Cole tee, and glimpses of our office.
