NEW MUSIC | T-PAIN x KANYE WEST "FLIGHT SCHOOL"

This joint is crazy... I have no words. Rumor has it that it’s actually a GLC song featuring Kanye & T-Pain. Right now, all that’s out there is this version with T-Pain & Kanye on the track, with talks of someone jumping in on the end. So until the official version leaks, we’ll label it as it.

UPDATE:FLIGHT SCHOOL WAS BEING SAVED FOR GLC ALBUM AND WASN’T SPOSED TO BE LEAKED YET BUT IT’S ON THE RADIO NOW… ALSO I REALLY WANTED TO DO A RECORD WITH DREAM CAUSE HE’S MY FAVORITE ARTIST AND I’M EXCITED ABOUT THIS SONG TOO.

FRESCO GIRL | OMAHYRA MOTA GARCIA

Before Angelina and Rihanna came to the dark side, and before Oxygen glamourized "bad girls" reality TV style, there was Omahyra Mota Garcia! Say what you will, Omahyra is the epitome of kick ass and fashion's favorite bad girl (don't tell Naomi). Photographer Phillip Meuller really captures the essence of edge in these photos. It's almost as if Omahyra emanates all things fresh... the tattoos, the confidence, the clothes, the hair, the grundge, even the blatant androgyny. Dope
