Stunningly Fresh Design Process

(click above to see animated gif)




Hey, everyone! I decided to showcase the design process for the "Stunningly Fresh" design. I've been a big fan of typography and custom type, which is probably a reason I like graffiti, but I that's beside the point. I wanted to share the mantra of Branded Baron with a cool looking custom type. This was originally for the t-shirt, then turned into the longsleeve(only 2 remain). Maybe it'll come back in a different colorway, but if you want it to come back let me know on twitter or the facebook page.

"Pump up the volume!" by the Beat Geeks


The Beat Geeks are back at it again! Well they've always been doing their thing, just here's a new song from them called "Pump Up The Volume"! They had this song up for free download and within a couple hours they exceeded their free download limit. I was unfortunately was not able to get it, but I requested to have it up for download again. It should be up for download later, but in the meantime listen to the song. It's a Friday and you know if you're going to go out you need something to listen to and prep you or help you pregame.

Justina's "Hard to the body" music video



This is a video from New Jersey native recording artist Justina. I've followed her music for a bit and she has a style that is cool. If I had to describe her music it would be an edgy hip pop sound, if that makes any sense. Watch the video, you'll get an idea what I mean or at least you can listen to her song "Go F*ck Yaself" to prove my point. Anyway, I just wanted to show some love and share this video. If you like follow here on twitter at http://twitter.com/justinamusic or watch her videos on youtube or buy her tracks at http://myworld.marketamerica.com/Justina/. The best bet to find more on her is to go to her site http://www.JustinaMusic.com/.

Okwerdz at Paid Dues 2011 rocking "Don't Be A Hypebeast" Tee



Last week was the event Paid Dues Independent Hip Hop Festival and Okwerdz takes you behind the scenes. You'll see him take pictures with fans, speak to forces in the hip hop community like producer the Alchemist, Planet Asia, Poison Pen, Mistah Fab, Chino XL, and more. It's pretty funny when he's speaking to Chino XL, because it randomly turns into a weight loss and good health conversation. I'm not saying that's a bad thing, it just randomly takes a little left turn from talking about battle rap.Another thing you may notice is Okwerdz rocking the original "Don't be a hypebeast" t-shirt.

Definitely check Okwerdz music and rap battles out, he supports Branded Baron and I definitely have people hit me up and tell me that they saw Ok rocking a Branded Baron tee. It's very much appreciated, especially since Branded Baron is still a very small company with reaching big goals. So, check out Okwerdz website at http://www.okwerdz.com ,subscribe to his youtube channel at http://www.youtube.com/okwerdz , become a fan on his facebook at facebook.com/okwerdzofficial

If you like emcee battles check out Grindtime. Okwerdz was a judge at the battle at Paid Dues, which took place inside an MMA octagon. That's just stunningly fresh right there.



You can buy the original "Don't be a hypebeast" t-shirt here and/or the newest "Don't be a hypebeast 2" tee here.

Spring Mini Release- PRE ORDER YOUR TEE!


HELLO EVERYONE! We just put up on our site the pre-orders for our Spring mini release. I wanted to release some new shirts, before the summer release. The shirts are pre-order, so there will be a limited amount made for those who purchased the t-shirts.

    If you were following Branded Baron from the beginning you would know about the Street Art Street Crime t-shirt. It was a popular shirt and it's brought back for those who missed it the first time around. Aren't you guys lucky? 

   Another goodie is the second version of the "Don't be a Hypebeast" t-shirts. It's dedicated to all the sneakerheads out there. It definitely will match your Jordans and you'll no doubt be no less than stunningly fresh!

  My latest favorite is the new "Statue of Liberty Gangsta" tees with purple and red bandanas. In this country we have to do what we need to in order to get by to help ourselves and our family. The tear represents the pain that Lady Liberty has seen as she stands tall. If you're curious as to why I chose red and purple bandanas, it's simple. They go well with the color green. Red and green are complimentary colors, while purple and green are cool colors. Purple and green make the Hulk look badass, so I think it compliments Lady Liberty.

Pre-orders end on Sunday April 4,2011. There may be a tee or two extra or maybe not, but why risk it. I want to print the t-shirts for those who want this. Shirts will ship around 3 weeks, in during the first week of May!

Fight for your right- Revisited

This a funny and the official trailer of "Fight for your right-revisited", from the Beastie Boys' eight album Hot Sauce Committee Part Two. It features actors Seth Rogen, Will Ferrell, Danny McBride, Jack Black, Elijah Wood, and John C. Reilly as the past and future Beastie Boys. It's pretty funny and I look forward to the whole video when it comes out.

Thought of the Day from Jonasty w/ discount code



For all youtube and vlogger fans, I bring you the "Thought of the Day" with Jonasty. He's a vlogger that I've watched due to Jay Wise and Jay Wise makes a guest appearance in this video. Jonasty always has different topics that he discusses like naked celebrity, pick up lines, vampires, and more. His videos are entertaining and a bit silly. You can subscribe to his youtube at http://www.youtube.com/user/TheJonastyFiles

One thing that you'll immediately notice is the "Born An Original, Don't Die A Copy" t-shirt! There is a discount code, which is 15% off. It originally was 12% and then I decided that I felt like being a bit more generous, so I decided to change it. I was hoping the video was recorded, but it was oh well. Check out the video to see what the discount code is.

Music Monday: Okwerdz, The Saurus, Chase Moore, & Young Collage NSFW



For this Music Monday edition, check out this song "I'm the Sh*t" by The Saurus featuring Okwerdz, Chase Moore, and Young Collage. This beat is ridiculous and some of the punchlines in this song are pretty good. I was skeptical on The Saurus's verse, because he's a emcee battle beast, but I wasn't sure if his talent would transfer onto music well. He definitely has a nice flow. This is a good "underground"/"indie" hip hop song, but it's not suitable for work due to the language. You can check out the song and then download the free mp3, so you can bump it in your car, ipod, stereo, etc.

Studio Mash-up/Music Video we threw together for the first leak "I'm the Shit" featuring, Chase Moore, Young Collage & Myself (prod. by Hippie Sabotage) off The Saurus's debut album. FIlmed by Ron Ross (http://www.twitter.com/209connection ) & Edited by Nimi Hendrix (http://www.twitter.com/nimihendrix ).
