Rap Legends Show Love 2 Nike's AF1

I've been slack with the blogging action of late but I'm back like real hip hop!
(Nas's highly anticipted 8th studio album 'hip hop is dead' is fire - review coming soon!)

So what's been popping in Yems Worderful World of Randomness I hear you say, well in case you were not aware Nike recently celebrated 25 years of the famed Air Force 1 trainer. To mark the milestone they threw a star studded bash in New York.

Those in attendence included A listers from the world of film, music and tv along with performances from hip hop giants Rakim, KRS 1, Kanye West, and Nas. It was without doubt a momentous occasion, I'm talking the stuff that a hip-hop buff's wet dreams are made off. However I was struck by one thing, which was the stiffness of the NY faithful!

Anywhere else in the world, that kind of line up would've triggered a frenzy amongst fans. Although it was a quote on quote 'industry' thing, the fact remains - Rakim, KRS 1, Kanye & Nasty Nas! I know heads that would pay top dollar to see that show! Anyway the night was big, here are some stills of how it all went down!
