The mask is unveiled and the truth of the glamourous music video is unveiled….or is it. Ben Baller a well respected jewler, DJ, and sneaker kingpin gives a behind the scenes look at the Wale Video shoot, and it looks pretty lame. Me and the blogman could lip sink a better video than this, and maybe we will.

Wale in Strong Island 11/7
November 5, 2009
Your boy FrankyVegan will be out of town this weekend (the flyer is mis-labeled the event is Sat.) otherwise you would have the chance to meet two psuedo celebrities. We already showed you Joe Bistro’s watch, so that should be motivation enough to get out to the island and steal that diamond studded timepiece. On this Strong Island Saturday however the real draw will be the opportunity to meet DMV star Wale, and receive a signed copy of his yet to be released album “Attention Deficit”. The pleasure doesn’t come gratis, it will cost you 15 clams but you will also be automatically entered to win a DJ hero package, so board that LIRR and get ready to peruse Patchogue come Saturday.
Wale Nike Foamposite Copper
November 3, 2009
This guy Wale once posited in his rap that Phil Knight asked him “where’d you get those” and it’s becoming more and more likely that this actually occurred. Wale was the ambassador of the Nike Eggplant Foamposites, which if you were unaware swept the sneaker chiefdom by storm and were an instant classic. Now Wale has previewed, with a little shameless advertising of his album “Attention Deficit”, the Nike Foamposite Copper months before their slated release. I’m unsure of the identity of Wale’s sneaker connect, but the guy is Pablo Escobar of his respective field.
