Just in time for the MLK Holiday, check out our newest “EPIC” tee, “Who’s the Master.” This one features Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in a tense chess match with Malcolm X, beyond the pearly gates. President Barack Obama looks on and represents the “HOPE” that both of these men fought for their entire lives. To all of our chess masters out there, we pose the question, who do you think would win…Malcolm or Martin?

When folks ask me what does my “I Created Hip-Hop” tee mean, I try to explain to them what, when, why and how I have created hip-hop and how big it is to me. Then tonight I saw this kid, Brian Bradley, from Simon Cowell’s X-Factor and his performance pretty much sums up what the phrase “I Created Hip-Hop” means and how poignant the art form can be in it’s rawest form.
I loved this kid’s performance and see big things in his future.

Now that Osama Bin Laden has finally bit the dust under the direction of President Barack Obama, we think it’s time to release one of our all time favorite designs we’ve done thus far. It’s our play on the Tupac Shakur movie poster for “Juice” but with President Obama taking up the spot of Pac with Bill, Hillary, and Bush looking over his shoulder.
After taking care of business in Washington on the daily and taking out public enemy #1 aka Osama Bin Laden, we think it’s safe to say that “Obama Got the Juice Now.”

This tee is just SOO soulful!
While folks are out proclaiming that Hip-Hop is dead, you can’t help but wonder what happened to soul music? Turn the radio on any station and long gone are the days when you would hear a song that gives you butterflies upon first listen. The horns, the drums, the guitar licks, the lyrics about loving someone, wanting someone, needing someone…all gone.
This tee was made as an ode to those real “soul” singers from back in the day who made everybody wanna fall in love. And to those new “soul” singers that get no radio play but are steady trying to give us something we can feel. Click here to check out this tee at our store.

We created this “I Created Hip-Hop” tee for the true Hip-Hop heads out there who feel like they have been a part of this Hip-Hop movement since the beginning. Nobody thought it was going to last but here it is over a quarter of a century later and the beats are still “def“, “stupid” and “fresh” – just like this tee.
So, if you’ve ever busted a rhyme, a beat box, or a breakdance move…this tee is for you. Check it out at our store by clicking here.

If you haven’t been to our website lately, we have about six new tees that we’ve added to our line. The tee above is one of my favorites. Although I have zero tattoos, I’ve always found finger tattoos fascinating. This fascination coupled with the belief that those with this “Crooklyn” aka above the law mentality (Lindsey Lohan, T.I., DMX, Paris Hilton) always seem to compromise their freedom is what brought on this design…

For the first pop-culture entry on the OMC Tees blog, I’ve decided to post my review of M. Night Shayamalan’s upcoming film “The Last Airbender.” Last week, a friend of mine invited me to attend a special screening of the film. Despite never seeing the cartoon, I thought the trailer looked really cool and since I’m a BIG fan of martial arts films, I figured it would be a fun evening out. Plus, I wanted to give Mr. Shayamalan one last chance to impress me since he’s had a pretty spotty record since “The Sixth Sense.” Note: SPOILERS begin in paragraph four and they are announced.
First, let’s talk casting. Judging by the previews, I assumed the movie was going to be a martial arts film set in Asia and was totally expecting to see a huge cast of Asian actors. Boy was I wrong! The first scene of the movie plays (after some really cool 3-D credits I might add) and to my surprise the main two characters Katara (Nicola Peltz) and Sokka (Jackson Rathbone) are white. A few moments later, the star of the film, Aang (Noah Ringer), is introduced and I found myself leaning over to my friend to whisper “is that kid Asian?” She replied, “I don’t know, maybe he’s mixed.” As the film progressed, and Ringer’s southern accent presented itself, I realized two things. One, the casting for this movie is way off and two, my hopes and dreams for a kid martial artist on the same level as Hung Man Ting (Miu Tse) from Jet Li’s “New Legend of Shaolin” (click here) were dashed.
On to the movie…Overall, I thought film was mediocre and all of the acting was pretty lousy across the board. The way the actors delivered each line of dialogue made me cringe and the people behind me sigh. It felt like the actors had spent so much time learning their lines that they had no time to work on making their characters believable. However, this may not have been all their fault since nearly every line of dialogue was so on the nose. Usually movies like this meticulously reveal just enough information about each character and the story to keep us intrigued…not this movie. If you want to know why Princess Yue has blue eyes, she’s going to tell you in a two minute dissertation EXACTLY why her eyes are blue. This struck me as odd since Mr. Shayamalan is known for his “twist” endings and was famously able to keep all of us in the dark with the big reveal in the “Sixth Sense.” I thought how could there be such mystery to those characters (from his other movies), yet these characters in Airbender are singing like canary’s every time they appear on the screen.
