Double Goose the brand we all know that was a Iconic piece of clothing from the early era of rap is back.My boy Thomas brought a pop up store to New York straight from France baby.I took a visit to his shop today and just took some pictures to show you guys what it looks like.The jackets are made from the nicest leather and keeps you so insulated from the cold.The fur is possum fur,so if you dont like animal fur,well too bad.It's gangsta to the core and probably one of those nostalgia throwback pieces you need in your closet.By the way,this is high end fashion folks these things don't come cheap.$700 and up on all the jackets,so only the dude's with that good taste in leather come in.I will be rocking a Goose jacket for my photoshoot and thank you Thomas you know I will represent it to the best of my ability.

MVP! what up dun dunn. Brian who invited is always a pleasure to see him and the rest of the crew in there I know. Maybe next year yall, when yall let me soak my feet in the water.

The White Rabbit & Mandy

vulkanthekrusader@hotmail.com (Vulkan The Krusader) — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 07:30:00 +0000

After the NRF Nike party me and Josh Charles headed to White Rabbit for some partying and dancing.We met up with my mans Focus who I haven't seen in weeks there.Teddy King always throws down a bash at the spot spinning that real live shit man.We spent the night in one section of the club where I met three wonderful girls from westchester? I think that's right Amanda,Zashelle,and Marta. I spent most of the night dancing with Mandy who has one of the sickest frames ever but chick got brains too she works on Wall street.Dope ass woman, in any way we danced all night and we all knew the lyrics to all the songs.The westchester crew left and we all still stayed to party.Eyeris came through late night creeping and we still stayed till the lights went on. Yankee parade here we come and Nike Party at Santos.

V for see you there, Mandy call me lol.

Vulkan & Josh Charles Chronicles

vulkanthekrusader@hotmail.com (Vulkan The Krusader) — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 07:15:00 +0000

So me and Josh Charles are two west coast transplants to the East Coast. Him hailing from Chino ,me from LA region.I still rep for Miami and LA both are the cities I feel home, but New York is home now.I must say our mind are quite alike and we take no bullshit from people.If you gonna be real just be real or get dealt with.Shit is struggle but we consider ourselves different from the norm you are used to.

Nike Party At Santos

vulkanthekrusader@hotmail.com (Vulkan The Krusader) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 19:17:00 +0000

So me and Josh Charles head out to Santos to go to this Nike party.As we head to the front we see my big brother from another mother Chris from Alife and his woman.We are one of the first people in the party,I had met Paul from nike the night before and talked to him about getting work.I am still looking for my next job since leaving photography, also Justin from 94x50.Been keeping contact with them to see when can I get my chance to show them what I can do, hopefully soon.As we are in there my dudes Van and Chris are there as well and Diego shows up outta nowhere. So it's basically the whole team there, and Jesse even came out with his wife.Good vibes, open bar, and good music at Santos who are always good host.Props to the door people the always good to me.

I also met Emeka from 10deep the other day at the Jay Electronica show.I didn't know he would the man with the stamp of approval which Scott told me he will be the guy I report to with my music.So,I hope Emeka see's my vision for this project and see's how much work and emotion and effort I have put in this package for the "Lucy Naive" Mixtape.Good dude, I asked him about the Play Cloth hat Curre$y had on the other night, cuz I love that joint. ATL exclusive, oh well, hopefully one day I will make something exclusive.For now just get back to recording and show Emeka what's the sounds looking like.

I head upstairs where I hear my brother Clark Kent is at. I tried to talk to him when I got into VIP but some guy in the DJ booth forbid me lol.I needed to talk to Clark for guidance but I will save that for another time. My dude Premier who was there, was also someone else I needed to touch base on. I ask permission to use one of his beats he produced for Blaq poet's album as a Lucy Naive beat.He said, "yes you can just do me justice and I know you can".So bless the god, and he is the forefather and OG of this hip hop shit.I saw Vashtie for the first time, I didn't know it was her, it's weird meeting people in person they somehow look different.My dude Scott from pegleg was there , he is one cool mofo son.But the night ended good and I headed home with more insight on where to go for a gig, what I'm dealing with musically and what should my next goals be.

V for much love to all yall. There Van here's ya pics brother.

"Lucy Naive"" Lost Memory #2 : How she get into a mag?

vulkanthekrusader@hotmail.com (Vulkan The Krusader) — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 07:25:00 +0000

It was a really cold weekend,she had been calling me all week planning on the trip.She was uber excited and completely immerse with joy.My best friend,god bless him yo,without him I would be lost.I consider her respectful enough and trusting to introduce her to my best friend.He had his concerns about the premise but knew that she was the one pushing.I told him I take things a day at a time,she likes to rush into things and pretend things are something they are not.Little did I know she would use this idiot claims later to falsify the matter of us.I digged her convo, even though her low self esteem brought upon by her awful pass made her seem ugly.She is damage and I was gonna try fixing her.

Her relationships before were all a certain male type.She went for the same loser time and time again in attempts to get a skin color or sexual nostalgia.She epically lost every single person, but none of the ever cared to lose her,she is a toy to them.I can only name one person who really cared about her.Though she destroyed that too,guess she gotta change sometime right?Well,she was invited to meet my extended family and I wanted to show her my world.As I waited outside the the A train for her to walk downstairs I thought, "V let her know she doesn't need to worry about being done wrong".

She walks down in a bright red jacket and a scarf around her rotund face.She always has a huge smile when she see's me and looks famish.I tell her we are going to eat her people's food lol. Chinese food!We walk closely to the Chinese spot where the BBQ Rib combo is my favorite. She orders the broccoli/beef combo and doesn't like to drink soda.She takes off my Ray-Ban aviators and hate light,she knows this.She rocks them while I absorb the light into my eyes like some vampire who is stunned with sun.We talk about how we are doing and how we are taking each other, other than that.I tell her it's time to meet my best friend.

I take out my camera and take some shots of her sitting in front of me(later the nigga she left me for would take these shots as his own).She poses and I realize she is very photogenic and can model.I take a interest in her this way,and she also is interested in the whole photography thing,which is one of our commons.We are both very educated love the arts,into shoes but doesn't make up our whole personality.It's like 3% of it, anyways he comes in the chinese spot and with a big smile gives her hello and nice to meet you dance.He can also see how she is feeling me, and told me to be aware of her past it might creep up.We talk for a while and I feel at home at this moment, with my best friend, my new best friend just chilling over some dinner.I planned out who the magazine was gonna shoot the next day.Every person on the memo was hand picked by yours truly.Hopefully the owner of the mag who I've known for years is pleased with the outcome.

We get back in the car,and head to the apartment I picked out to live in,a nice little roomy place in Brooklyn in which the train is right outside in plain view.I paid three months in advance to get a head start in NY with my Job Hunt and Nike.As we get there I Introduce her to my roommate and his GF.We head to the room that will be mine and just take a look at this empty white,high ceiling,big,comfortable space.I mean it's nice but the train is right outside,but I don't sleep much anyways, if you know me I sleep around 3 hours a day.It's us three in the room,talking about what are my plans.I felt good knowing I have friends like these and someone who i can count on.I felt like I can do anything,and nothing can stop me at all.That moment I did feel like that,i was just waiting for my shoes to come in and to get ready to hit the streets.

As my best friend left the room and left us alone for a minute.she got more comfortable, she had her head rested on me the entire time he was there.But she likes cuddling as I do.I'm very affectionate with someone I am feeling,but I haven't felt anyone in like years to be honest.She had leg over my legs and she just wanted to be close and feel the warmth from me.She does have a way about her,not anything sexually or nothing of the sort.She puts me at ease,something no one does, I mean no one. It's hard to make me just feel at peace with myself. I'm such an ambitious and creative person it's like I'm never satisfied.But when she was beside me, I felt like thinking nothing for some reason and feeling like I can just calm down and be Rob.

Well we needed to get up early as hell, and I felt like she wanted a kiss but I don't think the time is appropriate.Neither are we right now, so i told her it was time to drop her off her cousins in Queen's where she was blocks from my best friends krib.So off she went and we dropped her off at the spot.As me and my best friend drove off he said "you little devil,she got the hots for the V". I told him we just friends and we talk and we are real close.He said "I could tell you right now she wants more than that, and you know it so don't play dumb with her".I knew he was right, so I better not fall off the fence and fall wrong on this one.

It was the next day, the crew had arrived mad early at my friends house.We picked them up and picked her up.We all gonna get interviewed by Zac and have ourselves shoot in Times Square.While the crew set up she sits on a lawn chair and I go up to her and press my forehead onto hers to kiss her cheek.She expects a kiss on the mouth, but I don't think that was called for.I just do that, and back away from her anxious lips.She looks dumbfounded a lil bit and just starts playing with my camera once again.

Lets go to times square

We get the and set up at a local starbucks it is freeezzzingggg! But work must be done today, we all got there except two people didn't make it (you guys lost out).So the shoot goes well and we are all huddled in this starbucks.I get questions from people asking me if she is my girl but I say no "she is one of my best friends who is interested in me" but it's like it's yours anyways.She is letting it be known to others with her ways that she likes you and only has a sense of attraction to you.She hugs me when I just standing and gives me attention when I don't ask for it.So to others it seemed like she was "goin hard" but I didn't see her like that.I felt that she found someone who keeps it real with her and she's comfortable being like that with.That's all you can really say about it.

We all think it's time to go, the shoot is done and it's a cold ass day.We all head out to our homes and we drop her off at the train station.Today she became a model though for the first time.She can show people that was in a magazine, all thanks to me and wanting to show the world her beauty and intellect.She told me to give her "10 issues!" when I get my batch of them for all the people in it. I told her I try,but she was immortalized today and to never forget the experience.Doesn't come around everyday you get to be in a worldwide publication.I was actually very proud of her at that moment and the boost to her self esteem would be huge. As we drove off she kissed my cheek and said she would call me as soon as she got home. Which she did, to tell me "I love you and miss you already".

Happy Halloween

vulkanthekrusader@hotmail.com (Vulkan The Krusader) — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 22:12:00 +0000

Happy Halloween everyone,so I met up with Josh in Soho at Wendy's.We decided to call ourselves the "Bastard Squad" a team of connoisseurs who parade at night.We were supposed to head to the party my boy Tony Chan holds every Halloween.Instead we headed to a house party where my dude Colvin knew some peeps and we went there.The party was shut down as soon as we hit the door and the police sent us packing.So we headed out to the Vice party in Williamsburg which was another lackluster joint.We had way too many females to take anywhere including Karina's shin dig in the Bronx.It was too late anyways and we spent the night treking basically. I met Ashley who I used my subject all night due to her high cheek bones.Josh and MJB looked like a celebrity couple all night and we actually met a wild thing in Willy B. Pizza and then we headed out, check out the visuals. Oh yeah Colvin I got you son, you gonna be on the mixtape.

I told him a couple of things, and his exceptional work at Nike has progress the company to Iconic stature. We also met Brian Donnelly AKA KAWS who had one his pieces up for auction. It sold for 160,000 Dollars!!! Also of course we met Lance Armstrong and it was a great pleasure to meet that cat too. After that it basically me and Josh most of the night,who clicked with me off the bat off the strength we from the west coast and have similiar ideologies.

vulkanthekrusader@hotmail.com (Vulkan The Krusader) — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 21:10:00 +0000

Attended the Adidas x Paper event at the Adidas Store. Of course free drinks and the usual suspects in the building. Met some pretty dope people, and Zo I know why you left son! Taja and RJ were really nice, and I met Nikki finally who I mistagged on facebook and coincidentally saw her at this event.She is right about one thing she was built to be photographed and later maybe when I'm back on my shutterbug work I will work with her on some stuff.For now I'm still trying to balance myself out with the proper gig, and find a place to rest my dome in December.Holla back condoms and mathces yall.

Another late night out, with my dude Diego.Affan made a rare appearance Whiteboy, and of course of young comprade Adam. We met Alyssa who is the apple of Diego's eye and is a very smart little thing.We went to go visit Chris at that Top store and headed out. Everyone went home except me and Diego,we headed out to Fat Baby.Ease was in jail since the Redbull event, but guess who came in the club with Ash. EASE DA MAN! Glad my brother is out and he caught a foul one from the cops on his arrest and hope nothing comes about it. Still waiting on the Mishka stuff from Ease for this Lucy Naive shoot which my dude Chris Carr will do in Central Park.Kareem joined us later and was getting used to his D-90 camera, so he took pics of the rest of the night for his blog.

CMJ: Creme de la Creme Pictorial

vulkanthekrusader@hotmail.com (Vulkan The Krusader) — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 19:56:00 +0000

So I went to the Redbull event and they freaking were horrible at the door,it was highly un-organized and unprofessional.I left with Tarik and Ash to the Creme de la Creme event at BLVD.As I got there I was let in the VIP area where I met 10deep alum Donnis who was taking pictures with Mel D. Cole and 13th Witness. The show was filled with up and coming artist who really are the new wave.I hope to be part of this new movement soon,as I package my "Lucy Naive" mixtape.Donnis is mad humble and showed mad love.I hope to have a track with him on my mixtape.Another artist I love and was pumped to see perform was Florida's very own Rob Roy.He's doing a track for my mixtape so much love to Rob Roy for that right there. I am from Florida so just having two emcee's on a track doing something is big for us.

This was a night to rememeber,a fight broke out on stage as I put the videos in a earlier post it was crazy. Basically Rob performed his set, then Donnis came on and was doing "GONE" when suddenly this drunk dude came up on stage.Dude came up to me for dap I said to him "get off the stage or something bad gonna happe to ya".Well he slugged Dan and I grab him by his neck, Donnis came over and punched him a couple times. I fell over to the side of the stage when dude was hit by Donnis. And then he bounced off a bouncer into the crowd.Afterwards the crowd was a lil rattled but the show had to go on, and Donnis finished his set strong and more hyped as the crowd had adrenaline. Crazy ass night, yo I hope Mel D. Cole got good pics of the moments because it was insane.

The night ended with Hollywood Holt's set and I needed to head out. Beofore I did that I talked to Plain Pat about my music and wanted to get Cudi on my mixtape. I wrote a chorus he would be perfect for and we kinda have the same lane as far as realistic to the heart music.So big up to Plain Pat for making his music and just hearing out a brother, hopefully Scott digs the whole concept of the mixtape and song. Let's go ladies and gentlemen, it's time to make some history.

I also saw Torae and Marco Polo on the 1's and 2's so it was a pretty dope night of musical mayhem.Of course I had to document my travels.I don't take these pics to be professional to be honest, I just want you to see my what eyes see in my life. If you want to see my pro shots ask for a portfolio this is my personal blog,but Im retired!

So I go to the BLVD party to check out some performances. Most notably my dude Donnis from 10deep alum and Rob Roy who is insane to watch. Well Rob does his ill set, and then Donnis comes up.He does "Country Cool" and gets to the next track on his set called "gone". So this guy comes from the right hand side of the stage out of nowhere. He just barges on Donnis and then Stadium Dan comes and grabs him to get off. The dude tells Stadium dan "Take your hands off me!". The music stops, and dude looks right at me and comes over to give me dap. I was like "Yo get off the stage my man, or somethings gonna happen to you". Well it did, Dan came over and grab him again and he threw a hook at him. Once that happen I grabbed his neck and Donnis came over and punched dude a couple of times. The dude fell on me and I pushed him ass off, when he fell of the stage. It was crazy but I got flicks of the whole night other than this little mix up. Shout to my nigga Donnis, Shawty!

We met the girl behind some of the art you seen on the streets up close and personal I won't give her name but she is so dope.We headed out to check out the graffiti and art on the walls,so many talented artist in these parts.That's one thing I admire about Williamsburg, many people leave their mark on a wall. Sort of like part of their soul being bared or something being shown to the world from their mind.So after some food ,we headed out and got some shots of her. She headed out cuz she live deep in the Bronx.One more thing I love Johnny and hate you at the same time! lol.

"Lucy Naive"" Lost Memory #1 : The Museum

vulkanthekrusader@hotmail.com (Vulkan The Krusader) — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 09:01:00 +0000

This will give you a backstory to how we got to the Lucy "Naive" Mixtape.

We had talked before on the phone for years, she was the girlfriend of a good friend of mine. She told me in the end she would cheat because she loved "black guys", which in a way is grotesque to even say that. Funny because the "x" was a black guy and she still cheated does that make sense? Anyways she labeled herself a "replacement" from a person I never met or seen before called "Eve" who later was a figment of fake profile made online. How she compares herself to a psychopath like that makes no sense to me at all.Ladies and gentlemen this will be part of my marketing campaign for my Lucy Naive mixtape to give people an idea of the details of the relationship. I have no regrets,no second guessing,no holding back.This is my life and this is the how me and Lucy began.I knew she was a slutty girl before we even got together, she played herself numerous times, and had a string of completely dumb ass relationships which she still has till this day.

But let's start the story where shit gets good for her shall we?

I told her that I loved her even with her flaws but if she wanted something more, things would need to happen. She said "I'm starting to depend on you" on the phone, it kind of scared a dude knowing someone is starting to feel that way. She likes to blame everything on her drinking problem, it's the easiest way out of her nympho-mania and constant tear jerking in corners of her room. She use to cut herself like most manic depressants do and pretend life is perfect to others. I knew what she was going through, but see she put herself in those situations to lose. My life has been more of being forced to do bad things to people. I was her vent, I was her realness and someone she can completely tell anything too without any judgement.The past is the past i would tell her, but if she wanted anything with me she would need to finally change her life to be a good person.

I told her I was talking to a couple of girls before I came to New York. Just to keep it real with her. I told her our age gap was huge and she said it wasn't a problem at all to her. I did discriminate her heavily for it, and told her I would still be her best friend. She asked me to be her Boyfriend even before I got here, though she will blame the alcohol for that phone call, she is a light weight to the tenth degree. She said "I'm scared someone might take you away or I'm gonna lose you".I told her to ease her mind, I am a guy who takes his time making decisions of the heart.I can get girls anytime I know this, and she knew it. Just like I know fat chicks can get laid too,our looks and personalities don't really count in the world of superficiality love. Pussy is Pussy right? Naw, we talking more than that here, ladies and gentlemen.

I am very aware when I get to NY that she is hell bent on seeing me,I tell her that I might have some time for her with my homegirl Karina from the Bronx.I wanted to take Karina to the Museum and take in some culture and see the worlds past. She wanted to see me the first weekend in NY, I was like, CALM THAT DOWN.She was uber excited and well I was too, to see her finally. We both knew what we were and what can occur and took it all in account. I knew she was still fucking around with other guys too, she always is keeping them around to insure empowerment sexually.At any age she could have been a well paid pornstar but shes not that smart and not hood. She's a witty academic type, with a passion for writing and loves the read dictionaries just like I did. She reminded me of me, and it also was a scary comparison.

Here is how we met finally in person.

I was eating breakfast with Karina in a cafe when we headed out because she got off the train. As we headed out to the streets,the rain hit us with a ferocity it was a real gloomy day, it snowed the day before. As I lay my Ray-Ban Aviators on (wish I dearly miss) and walk to a corner. On the other stands this little thing with a peacoat and some cheaptly made sunglasses waving to us. She has her Shadows on and she has one of the biggest smiles I have ever seen on her face. As we walk towards her, I introduce her to Karina, of course she follows with the usual "what you been hiding.....Etc" sexual stuff blah blah. I hug her, I feel nothing as of yet. I take my camera out, she started a blog because of me she called me "Mango" because it is my favorite fruit to eat and "Taco".She calls me names, this is how she shows her love for you, calls you names.

She takes my camera and loves it, she takes a picture of me and looks at it with joy like having a look at a new born. The women talk and walk in front of me and we head to the Museum. We get in and of course I will pay for the admission. I pay $50 dollars, which I didn't know but it was a more of a "donation" system the Museum runs on. Which means later on I'm paying a dollar to get into this thing! lol.We get in and I start taking pictures of the two enthusiastic wombats getting ready to soak in some history. I notice she likes getting close to me, I notice the corners of her eyes filled with excitement.I feel a bit uncomfortable at her glances but I love her smile, it made my day. I made her laugh the whole day and she loves the sarcasm and wit I show. I don't really push up on her or anything like that, because well she told me she wanted something real, this is how being real starts.

I admire that she came to see a Museum with me, most girls I been with before would look at me crazy if I told them to come with me.She came to it like nothing, like she enjoyed reading and taking in sights of the place.We found ourselves trying to get some alone time, to talk to each other from Karina. Of course I didn't want her feeling isolated so I just played a couple of times by pushing her in a corner and disappearing from Karina.She made me feel more comfortable as the day went out, like I found my new best friend to spend time doing artsy things with. Like John Lennon finding out Yoko Ono or something of the sort. A decade apart and we still have very interesting conversation for hours,I mean she could talk my ear off and I wouldn't care cuz I would care about what she said. Even if it was the most absurd things you can possibly hear from a human being.I told myself, that I was gonna date these other girls I was talking to, but she prove that day she was worthy of some time.

She text and calls me tons of times in Florida, I never failed to pick up. I felt it was my duty to do that for her. Even at times I tried to tell her how we as men worked and she was going for the wrong people.Consoled her through a lot of emotional issues and things that had happen in her past.As a man I felt perplexed how this beautiful young female loves to destroy herself in this fashion.Maybe I can show her how she should be treated,how she should learn to love herself.How not to abuse what she has going for her,how not to be shallow,hypocritical,live in reality and undestand that what she wants is not what she needs. Ben, what a great guy, I love that dude for real. I felt bad for him when I knew this girl cheated on him,with numerous other losers she fucked with.She knows deep inside though no one can mess with the importance of Ben in her life.The men she filled her schedule out to,where just sexual needs she was infatuated with and man the dudes are some of the ugliest dudes you ever seen.

But today she met something she never met before, she met a guy who literally loves her for her. I loved her, in that Museum, but not that love that she already had for me as I know she was desperate to be a good girl.Time is all that was needed for it to grow into something special.Time is what she needed to give me,so I can leave all these other girls calling and knocking at my door.She still went to see another loser that day and get fucked up and have sex probably.That's how she keeps telling herself she rules the world,but in reality they are using her.She texted me back "I love you" after we dropped her off the train station. I told her me too, but she needs to go easy on that.She said "I already miss you and I don't ever miss anyone,I can't wait to see you again". She called me "LOVE" when she picked up the phone, she called me even more and texted me "I love you!" random times of the day and I would put her down on with some funny comment. I told her she can come see me for something special I had to plan for Sole Collector. Yes that Sole Collector. I would do something for her no other guy in the world can do for her. Put her in magazine to as a "Jordan Collector" we needed lookers and my girl was one of them.

P.S. Really dope music was made from this.

Ninjasonik was brutal as ever,my manz climbed to the top of the second floor and jumped from it.Telli ripped his "Hold the line" remix and it was on lovely in there. Good little family gathering much props to fat baby for holding it down, and my main man Chad Dubz too. Gilly don't worry the Phillies suck!

So my man Sole-Man came from Connecticut to look for the Air Max 1 "Parra". He didn't find it until I called NT and found him a pair and we headed out to get it. After wards we headed to times square to do a little shoot with the shoe and big props to him for being my friend, hard to come by these days. This is my nigga for real.

V for real talk.
