Here's a sneak peak of the upcoming Sup Clothing 2011 full range collection that been keeping us busy with selected hand drawn graphics by yours truly. This time we're doing it local styling!

ALTIMET WARRIOR

My long time buddy and multi-talent Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) based hiphop emcee Altimet was in town over the past weekend to perform at the Esplanade along with the region's biggest hiphop heavyweights.

Known for his invincibility in rhymes battles and freestyling, Altimet has won several awards with his radio hits and always stayed fresh experimenting with different music genres from drum & bass to ska and everything else in between. The never-not-working Altimet is also a dj, co-founder of Mixology DJ Academy, manager at Powder Records and tv host. In short, dude's huge back home.

Pictured below is Altimet himself repping The Killer Gerbil "Endorsed" raglan tshirt which he rocked during his entire performance which definitely caught me by surprise. It's definitely an honour!

PRINCESS & JURUKAMERA

The Killer Gerbil was on local Malay tv program Suria's "Princess & Jurukamera" as guest artist on the docudrama. Just in case you missed the show, tonight's episode featured graffiti art with yours truly schooling the masses on the low down with no scripts and random dialogues while collaborating on a quick mural with the actors.

Catch "Princess & Jurukamera" every Thursday 8:30pm on Suria channel.

LUPE FIASCO

Old time friend also international rap superstar Lupe Fiasco who was in town for SINGfest (South East Asia's Premier LIVE Music Event) along with the good people from homegrown outfit FALSE dropped by and paid The Killer Gerbil a surprise visit at Sup Clothing store in Haji Lane despite the bad weather here to catch up over lost times.

Lupe and I first met in 2005 at IdN Conference here in Singapore at the time he was building his career in the music industry and since then has gone successfully huge through his love and passion for hip-hop with various music award title under his belt.

Lupe Fiasco will be performing at SINGfest on 4th of August happening at Fort Canning Park along other international fames like Kanye West, Katy Perry and Smashing Pumpkins among others.

It was definitely nice to catch up again with the ever so humble and talented Lupe and we can only wish for more success for his career in time to come.

TRIPLE TROUBLE

Local sneaker fiends Sole Obsession whom I've worked closely with from years back doing tshirt collabs and group shows, recently just produced yet another installment this time involving Sup Clothing and yours truly on a tshirt with each individual graphics representing the different camps all united in 1 mashed up design.

Inspired by the college style design, the "Triple Trouble" collab's all about schooling the masses on the existence of the local street culture coming together based on brotherhood built along the years and that in union, there is strength to push the local scene on another level.

The "Triple Trouble" collab tshirt is now available at Sup Clothing store 34 Haji Lane in a limited quantity of 40 pieces.
