J&B start a party awards*

universeroom — Mon, 13 Sep 2010 12:47:01 +0000

On the 16^th September J&B will be hosting the first ever Start A Party Awards in Jo’burg as the finale to a series of online challenges set by the brand. Promising to be everything a normal awards night is not (they’re usually pretty dull), J&B will be presenting its own take on what an awards show should be. DJs Culoe De Song and Kenzhero will be ripping it up on the night alongside some mystery guests in a transformed Turbine Hall.

In total, J&B issued seven challenges for people to take part in all of which involved the simple entry mechanic of uploading crazy photos on the web for the community there to comment and vote on.

Thousands of people submitted photos of themselves “photo-bombing”, “jump-shotting” and “shaky-facing” their way into instant internet fame. From these thousands, five finalists in each category have been chosen to attend the awards along with hundreds of party starters from the entrants.

To get your hands on tickets to the J&B Awards, register on www.jbawards.co.za, click the RSVP button and if you’re one of the lucky few, you’ll crack the nod to this exclusive event.

Please note that the J&B Awards is exclusively for people over 18, no one under 18 will be granted access to the Awards.

This post should have been up the day this video came out, mara Vimeo is a tad complicated for me to get the URL (but you don’t give a f# about that right)… Spoek Mathambo is the business. I have been talking to my people about there at BBE records as I want this album on Promo.

I had the pleasure of drinking (thieving some beer with him…shhhhhhhh) at the Nike X Fader=Pitch Perfect Youth day gig. Don’t want to say a lot about that gig…. because ngi ne gwababa….

Osborn Shoes*

Osborn Design is run by Carla Venticinque-Osborn & Aaron Osborn. The studio is a working environment where fine art and commerical art are conceived, blended, expanded upon, and produced. Our inspiration is drawn from human relationships, the vibrancy of life within its conflict and resolve, and artisanal grit. We showcase an evolving line of products, and through the continuous collaboration with friends, economically disadvantaged artisans, creative entities, and with each other, we seek now, more than ever, to embody hope in design. (Taken from their website)

I love these shoes and know a lot of people that would be into them…
