Damn where do I start? I first met Steve when he was working at this little punk shop called SMASH in Georgetown, right away we struck up conversation on limited edition Nike’s since there were very few people at this time in the DC area who knew ANYTHING about the Lucky Nike SB Dunks and the history. From this point I would see Steve all over DC and found out he was doing an amazing party centered around people having fun and real music that you would not typically hear in a club. Fast forward a few years DC is really popping! The sneaker, art and fashion culture has fully surfaced and few of us were doing great events all over DC. The one familiar face you would always see supporting these events was Steve. I even opened up a shop KickBallers DC in the same location that SMASH was at, one face you could always count on seeing was Steve. At this time in DC 2 other shop’s opened up, but Steve found a way to support all of us because he knew this was a good thing for the DC culture. I can go on for days about Steve but the most important part is since Steve has always showed us support, its time for US to show him SUPPORT!
If you are in the DC area I suggest you drop all your plans, cancel all your regular club parties and go to U HAUL DC eat a lot of food and drink a lot of liquor so all proceeds to go Steve’s medical fund.
If you can not make the party, or wish to help an amazing person you can also donate via paypal to this addy : keepingthestereofaith@gmail.com
God Bless Steve, I know you will pull thru this and have a fast recovery. See you when I’m back in the DMV!
Its always good to see my DC Fam doing well! Congrats on all the success you currently have, and what will be heading your way Tabi! Also peace to my dude 6ix who directed the video!

This jacket is fresh, a lot of attention to detail, but that RIRI zipper really tops it off! Good job Mega and Rob, if you don’t know about RIRI’s you need to learn! See the rest of the pack and more pictures of the jacket at Black Scale.
“Death By Disco is the dark grisly creation of multifaceted Le Messie a Producer behind Lupe Fiasco’s Grammy nominated album “The Cool” and member of Lupe Fiasco’s controversial Post Punk band “Japanese Cartoon”. Le Messie’s Death By Disco is home to a heavy electro pu…nk hybrid of the 90’s big beat phenomenon with the more modern day styled sounds of the electro house movement. Death By Disco’s debut EP “Cross Of St. Peter” will be looking to possess your sound systems Summer 2010. As the brainchild behind Death By Disco, Le Messie’s talents do not stop at the sound level. He is also a prominent creative figure in the independent street wear, art and design communities internationally running his propagandic brand FALSE and its subsidiaries”
