Today in the mail…

Two packages. Wondering what was inside them? Take a peek…

Fresh.

AMC Hornet Sportabout Gucci

Aldo Gucci, the son of Guccio Gucci (the founding father of the fashion house of Gucci) expanded into new markets that his father had never done business in. This included an agreement with American Motors Company. The 1972 AMC Hornet compact Sportabout stationwagon became one of the first American cars to offer a special luxury trim package that was designed by a fashion designer. The Gucci cars sported boldly striped green (or blue), red, and buff upholstery and on the door panels, as well as the designer’s emblems and exterior color selections.

At that time, the AMC Hornet was the coolest car ever. No wonder it featured on James Bond’s ‘The Man With The Golden Gun’.

I’m wondering when the next collaboration of Gucci with a car manufacturer will be. For instance, with the Audi TT (my favorite, too bad they stopped making the MK1 TT, the MK2 is nice too but the looks on the MK1 can’t be beaten, so pure). More pics inside of the Brutblog writers’ dream…

Lil Wayne – Lollipop Remix

Finally it’s released. Listen to it on Kanye’s blog. Did Kanye overdo it with the Cher effect on the voice? No way, this remix is sick! Listen to it yourself!
