Sperry x Band

More extensive than the initial collection, Band of Outsiders and Sperry have combined once again in fine fashion. Defining the traditional footwear label, Band of Outsiders have added a very unique approach in terms of colors and materials while maintaining the same silhouettes that have been at the centre of all of Sperry’s success

Kid Cudi Complex Mag Spread

Back on his first (and only) official mixtape Kid Cudi rapped, “They say I’m Complex like the magazine, I want my closet complex like the magazine.” A bit of foreshadowing? Perhaps, because the G.O.O.D. Music MC is now a Complex cover star, appearing on our August/September 2009 issue, the annual Style & Design special, which officially hits stands on August 11.

The self-proclaimed lonely stoner is currently on The Great Hangover Tour with Asher Roth, and has fans eagerly awaiting his debut album The Man On The Moon: End Of Day, which is now set for September 15. His melody-heavy raps bring an innovative sound to the game, which is why we paired him up with graf artist AUGOR for some illustrations that show Cudi battling his demons. We just put the whole story up online, and you’ll see that Cudi really invited us inside the mind of Scott Mescudi. You think you know, but you have no idea…

Alpine Kogi BBQ Truck

In the culinary matrimony of Korea and Mexico, we have discovered that tacos can house more than carne asada. One of Los Angeles’ finest gems, the Kogi BBQ Truck, had grown to become culinary cult by itself with fans and toursists fanatically chasing the truck through streets of Los Angeles for a Korean Short Ribs Taco.

As the company’s business grew, the company sought out ways to better their customer service and found an answer in Alpine. Alpine outfitted the Kogi BBQ Truck with a complete Alpine audio and navigation system to create a lively atmosphere for customers during their wait. The system allows staff to stream music from their iPod or iPhone through an A PDX-4.150 4-channel amplifier with bass supplied by SWR-M100 subwoofer and two pairs of SPR-M700 7-inch marine-grade speakers. An additional PA system also helps staff announce customers’ orders. Follow the truck on twitter to find out where the tacos or. Or, just simply listen and follow the music.
