Originally released Holiday 2010, now updated in new colourways. Thanks and respect due to the Deadline camp for the re-release, salute.
September 1965’s issue of Esquire Mag featured those who counted most amongst college rebels. Bob Dylan, because he talks like a poet and sings of rebellion. Malcolm X, because he told it the way it was. Fidel Castro, because he is the epitome of the Romance of Rebellion. John F. Kennedy, because he made everybody respect youth.
It got us to thinking about who, in the present day, counts most…

When thinking of a DJ to tackle the task of the Bootleg Collection II Mixtape, we came up with one man… Sean G. A pedigree of a DJ and not just some put-the-latest-hottest-shit-from-the-radio-on-so-her-butt-shakes type of DJ.
The concept for the Mixtape was simple, LAX-JFK in the form of Hip Hop music. We start with an L.A. joint, then go to NY, then back to L.A., then NY and so on and so on… Borrowing (or Bootlegging) ATCQ’s iconic Midnight Marauders album cover and replacing it with our very own Marauding Midnight list of MC’s, which will also serve as a concept for an upcoming t-shirt design dropping August 9th. Obviously it’s IMPOSSIBLE to feature all of our favorite MC’s, but we think this is a fair assessment. You’ll note the obvious bias to a particular era of Hip Hop, but what can I say I’m OLD AS F*CK!
