Stepping into the MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) arena....

Well, not personally....lol. One of my good friends, long time homies from Japan is doing his thing in the mixed martial arts field. It's strange because for awhile I wanted to get into this arena but I wasn't totally sure about it; but all I know is that God works in mysterious ways. This is another blessing and opportunity not only to do this but to be the first sponsor for my boy Cornell "CJ" Nobles who is currently 2-0. More gear on the way big homie!

Keeping with the Status Quo

You are now rockin with the best, Status Quo!

New Tipsy t-shirt in a hot colorway!

This has become a favorite and since the response for this t-shirt has been overwhelming I decided that it was time to offer a new colorway, heather grey. The first t-shirt was in Navy and I feel this colorway is just as nice!

Just a little FYI....This t-shirt has shimmer (a glitter type effect) on the design in the everything outlined in pink. Ladies, trust me, you'll love it.

My personal call w/Fashion Mogul Daymond John....Founder of FUBU!

Hey...it's been a few days but I'm back and have some GREAT news to share from this past weekend. Not only did I enjoy myself in tha "A" but I received a call from someone I look up to in the fashion game, Mr. Daymond John, founder of FUBU and current shark on the hottest show out right now, ABC's Shark Tank.

A little FYI....I was a SEMI-FINALIST for this show but don't worry L.DASIA will represent on Shark Tank next go-round, let's hope for a Season 2.

I won a challenge from Daymond and all I can say is that the advice/consulting he gave me during our phone call was PRICELESS. Here's the actual message from the contest:

THANKS EVERYBODY! 10th person 2 tweet @6pm sharp EST IS ----> @LDasia_LA !I will DM U. i will call 2 ppl 2morrow on Shark tank questions!

Usain Bolt shatters WORLD RECORD...9.58!

I want to see this guy in the NFL! Call it speed and that's an understatement. Usain Bolt ran a 9.58 in the 100 meters, shattering his OWN record.

What's really crazy is I think Usain Bolt can break this record. Sky's the limit for him as he's in his early 20's.

How'd You Get So Rich.....I like this show!

After finishing my meal from Chilli's I was channel surfing and came across this new show that I've been hearing about called "How'd You Get So Rich" hosted by Joan Rivers. Joan Rivers is crazy and by that I mean funny.

The concept behind the show is to see how people amassed their fortunes, how they became millionaires. Joan Rivers approaches people on the street and asks the infamous line, "How's You Get So Rich" and a majority of the people would let her know while very few told her "that's a personal question" and speed off in their Ferrari...lol.

Stories ranged from individual starting their own chain of hotels, worked for a major coporation then branched into their own and some stated they just married into money. Below are a few pics, and one day Joan may ask me 'How'd You Get So Rich'

Taye: I started out as the Assistant of a video/movie director here in Atlanta, and I met her because the project we worked on, Diamond was a main character on the production and when it came to her, I displayed myself to be very determined because she was not interested in doing the project, and she seen my drive and my dedication and with that she hired me on the spot at the wrap party.

ldasiaclothing.com: Describe a typical day on the job?

Taye: A typical day on the job is waking up at 5am replying to tons of emails and sending out contracts to different promoters, setting appointments for Diamond and interviews and hosting meetings for promotional ideas for her also and that's just from 5am-noon. I'm very hands on in everything she does because she trust my judgment, and she knows that I will only tell her or steer here in the right direction, being a assistant is a very demanding job, and its a 24/7 cycle.

God is Good!

ldasiaclothing.com: Worst thing about being in the music industry?

L.A. Lakers 2009 NBA Champs!

Well, well, well.....we all know what went down on Sunday, so there's no need to re-visit and shove the loss down anymore Laker Haters throats.

Please believe that I went down the list of people who dogged me last year when the Lakers lost and gave them a dose of their own medicine with a few text messages....LOL!!!!!

All I gotta say is that the Lakers are back on top, Kobe and Fish got their 4th ring, the Zen Master got his 10th to surpass Red Auerbach and Kobe Bryant won his first Finals MVP.

Now that the Lakers won and Kobe led them to an NBA Championship without you know who......What will the hater have to say now?????

Congrats to the whole team especially Trevor Ariza, Lamar Odom and Pau Gasol.

And for those who are already doubting next season - Trevor and L.O. will return despite the free agency talk, remember we put it out there first.



Later peeps,
L.A.

I want to be the best....Lil Wayne's "Kobe Bryant" Song

The most complete player in the game! This song is ridiculous, it has Kobe and Stephen A. Smith featured as well. One of Lil Wayne's most creative songs. It debuted Game 1 of the Finals versus Orlando.

Judge for yourself, haters all comments are welcomed!

LAKERS all day.....going for that 4th ring Kobe let's get it.

Superbad by Diamond ft. Cee-Lo

If you're like me you've been waiting for Diamond aka Ms. 32 Flavaz to drop her new album which I've heard is scheduled to drop sometime in August.



Diamond formerly of Crime Mob made you "Rock Yo Hips" and now you can check out her new hit "Superbad" below featuring Cee-Lo.

Trust me on this Diamond is going to do BIG things this year, remember you heard it here first. Make sure to call your local radio stations and request Diamond's "Superbad" featuring Cee-Lo.

What's good Taye!



Peace ya'll.

TV Show 'The Game' cancelled!

SHM....Some things in life you don't get and this is one of them. I mean, this has to be one of the dumbest moves by the CW - EVER to cancel the show.

More updates to come on this.

XXL Receives Letter from Louis Vuitton about Cover of Rick Ross

LMAO, Read below.



The XXL Editors received this letter from Louis Vuitton concerning the May 2009 cover of Rick Ross.

Dear Editor:

We were dismayed to see the cover of the May 2009 issue of XXL Magazine, which features a photo of Rick Ross wearing a pair of sunglasses prominently featuring counterfeit Louis Vuitton trademarks. Because the photo has generated considerable confusion among your readers and Louis Vuitton customers among others, we feel it is important to clarify several points.

The first is that the sunglasses Mr. Ross is wearing were not made by Louis Vuitton, and in fact, are counterfeit. Louis Vuitton did not grant permission to Mr. Ross or to whoever did make the sunglasses to use our trademarks. The second is that no affiliation, sponsorship or association exists between Rick Ross or XXL and Louis Vuitton. The third is that counterfeiting is illegal.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to correct the confusion.

Sincerely,

Michael D. Pantalony, Esq.
Louis Vuitton Malletier

Lebron James wins MVP

Being the NBA superstar that he is, at 24, Lebron James is the second-youngest player to win the MVP award, behind Wes Unseld, who won it at 23 in 1969.

Lebron "King" James averaged 28.4 points, 7.6 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game this season......WOW!!!!

Like Mike, If I could be like Mike....LOL

Michael Jordan had that killer instinct on the court that his opponents feared. Apparently they weren't the only ones so did his teammates.

You'll hear it firsthand from MJ and some of his former Bulls teammates go all in. For those who don't know Mike was no joke - knocking Steve Kerr the F@#k out in a practice and make sure you listen to the comments about the incident between MJ and Bill Cartwright....LMAO!

By the way, shout out to Chardonnay - it's Ray J's lost!

Today is THE day for the release of Nike's Air Jordan 1 Hare, Saturday, April 11, 2009.

The colorway way is simple but that's a good thing in my opinion - Silver, White and Red. Not to mention that I've always been a fan of the Hare Jordans.

FOR ALL OF YOU DIE HARD JORDAN FANS I SUGGEST YOU GO OUT AND COP A PAIR ASAP OR CRY ABOUT IT LATER.

New Orleans Hornets Casino Night!

Wow...I know it's been awhile but I'm baaacckkkk! This year I'm going to do more than just updates on new clothing; I'm going to give my reader's more insight into what's going on in my life & L.Dasia, events, and so on. Check out the event that I attended, New Orleans Hornets Casino Night. Its an event where the players, coaches, and the Hornets staff mingle with season ticket holders and play casino games such as poker, black jack and rouletter.

Well, my friend Will bka Chilly D (who I haven't seen since '94) hit me up on Thursday out of NOWHERE and tells me that he has an extra ticket for the 3rd annual New Orleans Hornets Casino Night at the SuperDome and wants to know if I want to go, EVEN though it's last minute. After I get some things in place I end up letting my boy know that I'm down to attend.

So I head down to the N.O. and end up missing my exit, due to some traffic and that damn Causeway Exit, but still make it to my boy's house with enough time to spare.

So we arrive at the SuperDome and meet up with 3 guys that Chilly D knows (season ticket holders as well). One thing I noticed was that there were definitely some die hard Hornets fans in the building! Dudes wearing matching New Orleans Hornets t-shirts with spandex and capes......LOL! Trust me, I'll support my team but not to that extreme. It was all good, anyone that knows me knows that I'm an L.A. Lakers fan all day baby.....Don't hate.

The event was catered so me, Chilly D and his friends grab something to eat, take advantage of the complimentary drinks and mingle with the crowd a little. Chilly D's boys got some pics with Brittany an In-Arena Host for the Hornets (gets the crowd hyped) and one of the Honey Bees, Lindsey (real down to earth). After the convo we find out that the players and coaches are in the building and the tables are OFFICIALLY open for gambling (with fake money, don't get it twisted).

Some pics from the night

Owner of the N.O. Hornets, the man who writes the checks, George Shinn!

It was a great night and definitely enjoyed meeting up with my boy, Chilly D. If you ever get a chance to go to this event, GO! The Hornets know how to treat their fans and this very special Lakers fan very well : )
