Part 1 Introductions



Part 2 (Detroit to Los Angeles)

Stussy and Stones Throw Records have partnered for Raph Rashid's classic pic of J Dilla on a limited-edition Stussy Tee. This was released Feb. 13, 2010 in White and Black, available at stonesthrow.com and Stussy locations. As a side note, these tees are sold out on Stone Throw's website and at Stussy, medium and small are the only available sizes. Check local shops while you can.

COLLECTIBLES: RBST X SOMR Cubeecraft- J DILLA (RIP)

I have been seeing these online for quite some time but never downloaded templates or attempted to construct one. Paper toys/figures also known as Cubeecraft, are another element in the collectible vinyl toy world. Though made of paper, these ingenious figures are designed by some of the illest artists in the graf, vinyl toy and underground art world. The above figure was designed by RBST in collaboration with SOMR to pay homage to one of the greatest producers in hip hop and R&B- J DILLA. It even comes with a paper toy version of an MPC3000!
