For those of you who have seen "The Fighter" or is planning to see it, check out ya boy FunkMistah_J!
I had the pleasure of filming a scene across from Christian Bale during the movie. Keep an eye out for me next time you see it! Another audition coming up within the next couple of months, hopefully I'll get a speaking role. Big things one step at a time!
Last week I had tickets to attend an advance screening of the film "The Green Hornet" starring Seth Rogen, Jay Chou & Cameron Diaz.
Even though the year just started, just gotta say that so far its the best movie of the year in my opinion, the action scenes were jam packed with hand to hand combat, lots of explosions as well as witty humor between the leading actors Seth Rogen and Jay Chou, if you haven't seen this movie yet then I highly recommend that you do!
But onto the real reason of this post, Jay Chou ( who plays Kato in the film ) not only took part in acting in the movie, but is also CEO of the Taiwanese based clothing line "PHANTACi"
With his attachments to the film, there will be a PHANTACi x Green Hornet collab scheduled to drop sometime soon in which I am completely going apeshit over!
Check out the teaser trailer featuring some well known faces within the Asian street wear community such as Edison Chen of the Hong Kong based clothing brand "CLOT Inc." as well as Sam Lee of "SUBCREW"
They will be dropping some new exclusive t-shirts as well as a collab sneaker between New Balance. The shoes look fresh and can't wait for these to drop!
You can check out more items/tees from the collab over at:
Our black and white "StackBoxes/Solecollector" tees made for the release of the Jordan Cement 3s are now available at LACED Boston! Currently this is the ONLY place where you can snag these t-shirts until the online shop is up. Get them now before they're sold out!
Why is it that if a skinny person enjoys food, they're called a foodie, but if a slightly heavier set person enjoys food their called a fattie? Is there no justice!
Anyways enough of that, With me being a foodie/fattie ( or whoever you wish to call it ) I usually don't do write ups about fast food but figured I'd voice my opinion about this.
What it is is a burger pattie that has been stuffed with bits and pieces of Jalapeno peppers and cheese so with every bite its a guaranteed spicy/cheese kick.
Yea...
Doesn't look that appetizing does it? Because its not! While the concept of a infused patty is a pretty different idea and I'm sure many others out there may have a taste for this burger, For me personally I just wasn't sold. The scattered pieces of jalapenos and cheese were all over the place where each bite was either really cheese, really peppery or just nothing but a strong taste of dry burnt meat.
To make it short, the burger tasted as if someone took restaurant style nacho cheese dip, put it on the burger and served it. It tastes exactly how you think it would be, cheesy and bland.
2 Thumbs DOWN son!
Don't Follow . LEAD!

Friends, Fans, Supporters of the FunkMeOut! Clothing Brand
I apologize for the lack of updates on our website, with the holidays I've been crazy busy running around trying to get everything together, on top of working basically 6 days a week and about 10 hours each day, by the time I get home all I want to do is just pack t-shirts to ship and then head right to bed.
Looks something like this
On top of that, basically running everything as a one man brand, ( designing, working on collabs, photography, printing, folding, packing, shipping, contacting and setting up meetings ) really takes up time that I rarely have the effort to blog yet, I still attempt to squeeze in as much time as possible to blog here and there.
I would LOVE to have help to work on different aspects and areas of the brand but I still feel that the brand is TOO young to have a staff or so. Too many people working on the same project will always have different ideas and not carry the message or the view of the brand in the direction in the way I intend for it to go. The only time we'll have more people working for the brand is during events or pop up shops, and even then we already have people to turn to ( family members, my girlfriend and my circle of friends. I appreciate all the emails and messages that I've received in the past inquiring about working for the brand but I'm all set down the moment, Perhaps down the line?
In other news, all those who've ordered t-shirts, MAD LOVE AND RESPECT!
The holidays has been crazy for us! Receiving international orders on top of orders nationwide, its been a crazy experience working 10 hour days, working on only 2 -3 hours of sleep and the attempting to pack all of our t-shirt orders to send out. Its been almost a near delirious experience but I can't help but say thank you to all of those who support us, through lack of sleep and crappy weather, I'll work late into the night packing your orders!
Also! Congrats to my brother from another mother, Jayfree, for making it through the audition rounds for America's Got Talent!

Sometime this month I'll be doing a contest where the winner gets a $100 giftcard from Karmaloop.com! I worked a Karmaloop a while back and they paid me on cash and a $100 giftcard, I honestly have no use for the giftcard so I figured why not give it to one of our supporters? But who? So I decided to hold a contest but what the contest is exactly I'm not quite sure. I'll figure it out though.
Also for those who demanded it! The Nujabe's t-shirt will be released to LIMITED quantities in a week or so! Stay updated with the blog, don't forget to like our facebook group to stay connected with the brand!
I've been getting alot of word from friends and family that I remind them of Bruno Mars, something about his eyes and our facial expressions that looks similar.
Do you guys see it?
Yea me either...
Oh well! Let's all just enjoy us some Bruno Mars yea?
I always love eating hot pot during the cold Winter days, its always been one of my favorite treats. For those who aren't familiar with Hot Pot, its sort of like Grandma's home made chicken noodle soup, it has that same warm soothing comfort feeling that's associated with it except you have more variety and eat it with the family.
You have hot broth and thinly sliced meats and veggies that you dip into the broth and let it cook. It's heaven! Here's a better video explaining how to eat hot pot, not the greatest video mind you but it does the trick.
