Speartalks on JoshSpear.com just did a nice little article with the founder of Married to the Mob, Leah McSweeney:
“For starters, her small company — born from a porch stoop, a plan to make a few tee shirts, and a wholesome dose of Irish irreverence — has taken the streetwear scene by
stormnatural disaster. Add that to M.O.B,’s well curated collaborations with artists like Fafi and KAWS, the blog headed up by Futura’s daughter, the window display at Colette in Paris, and the, ahem, vibrant personality of Ms. McSweeney herself, and there you have it: The perfect recipe for a street label that bitches (and boys) go crazy over.”

This has been out for a little while now, but it is such an excellent write up that I felt the need to post on it here just in case anybody missed it. Dan Love over at OhWord did an incredible job breaking down Nas’ seminal hip hop classic Illmatic into each track’s respective samples. He also goes in on a history of the artists and all kinds of other stuff. Definitely an excellent blog post. It takes a lil time to get through, but is absolutely worth it.
