ben baller x illest + trilogy back in the hood
Yesterday was probably one of THE most epic days of my life. I got to meet Ben Baller!
In case you didn't know I was a little G for a time back in the day (ha-ha) so meeting one of the best DJs, record executives, celebrity jewelry designers not to mention college baller and most popular sneakerhead in the world was sort of a really big deal for me.
I am not easily starstruck but having my photo taken with him totally knocked my socks off. This guy is amazing. He has his foot in almost everything + he's worked with some of the best rap artists around. Hello, Jay-Z, Dr. Dre??? sick.

Pretty, but if you want something that screams Ben Baller designs, his Jesus Piece is what should make you whip out the big ones. Not enough dough for the iced out version? Get it in silver or pick up a print of it on a t shirt or iphone case from his latest collaboration with Illest.
From ballers and bling to Crooks and Castles, Illest, GPPR, BOTB, and Hellz Bellz founding fathers representing for Trilogy's return to the hood and back to where it all started, Makati.

Mood music was provided by DJ Skratchmark of Wave 89.1. It was so street I half expected them to be serving sizzurp and crunk juice. Instead we got cupcakes, burgers and mojitos. lol.

Ri-ri was there too.Just kidding, these are the All-Stars who were also there to provide some entertainment before Baby Bash took the stage. Had to run to a different event by this time so we missed that but over all Trilogy's Back In The Hood was epic and will probably be talked about for months.
