MIXTAPE MONDAYS: DJ D-Miles

This week entry for "Mixtape Monday's" is called Moombahton Road Trip" from my boy and Knyew's official model DJ-D-Miles. This mixtape is a dope 40 minute introduction to a new sound that's starting to get a lot of play in the club's recently. For those of you who's not familiar with Moombahton, its a new form of electronic dance music that combines the sound of dutch house slowed down with a bit of reggaeton. This mixtape is a definite must have. If you happen to be in Vegas you can catch D-Miles holding down his residencies at Tao, Marquee or Drai's Afterhours. Good looks to the homie D-Miles for providing us with this weeks entry. Enjoy Knyewtrons...Neva

"Oldschool Weds" at LAVO with Phife from A Tribe Called Quest

It's been almost 5 months now & our "Oldschool Weds" party at LAVO has been thriving, getting better & better every week all thanks to the support of our Knyewtrons in & out of Las Vegas. This week we got Phife Dawg from A Tribe Called Quest & actor/director Michael Rappaport in the building, celebrating the release of their new documentary "Beats Ryhmes & Life: The Travels Of A Tribe Called Quest". Having seen this doc over 5 times, I can't explain how amazing it was to see the birth, life & tragic destruction of my favorite childhood hip-hop captured on film. I've been an ATCQ fan since "I Left My Wallet In El Segundo" & a die hard Q-Tip fan since his first cameo on the Jungle Brothers "Black Is Black". I can't wait to meet Michael Rappaport & witness Phife, the 5 Ft Assasin, rock the crowd this Wednesday. You don't wanna miss this one Knyewtrons. Email us at events@knyew.com for guestlist info. See yall Wednesday!!! Crooked Signing out...

THE NEW SITE!!!

Since our opening in 2007, we've been using this Blogger site to showcase everything from new clothing to promotional events & it's served us fairly adequately for the past 4 years. But due to the many requests & complaints sent via email from as far as London & Montreal, we're putting this old Blogger site to rest & launching a new website with a full online store that will provide shipping worldwide. On September 1st 2011, accompanying the grand opening of our relocation, KNYEW 2.0 will be launching to the public!!!...(dramatic pause). Crooked signing out!

12 Days To Go...

We finally finished our flooring at the new location & I must say, we're pretty damn pleased with the outcome. After minimizing our choices between "Midnight Black", "Black Ocean" & "The Grim Reaper Is Knocking Black", me & Neva were pleased with our final choice of "Midnight Black" for the concrete staining. Be sure to refer to the flooring as "Midnight Black" when you step foot onto our new floors at 3999 Spring Mountain. Any other description besides "Midnight Black" would be an insult to you & your own ignorance.
One of THE most fun things to ever do in life is picking out baseboards. In actuality, it's pretty annoying & idiotic but somehow it took me & Neva a good 45 minutes to make a final decision. The winning factor was of course..."which one is the cheapest?"
Here we see Neva aka Black Panda inspecting the new partition wall being built. In his mind, he's thinking to himself..."how many lapdances at Rhino did me & Crooked lose by building this fuckin' wall?" It's bad news for us but good news for you Knyewtrons cause this "fuckin' wall" will finally have a fitting room for you guys.
Shout to our boy Jose aka Dry Wall King of Clark County, Las Vegas.
One of the last things you'd expect to work into a budget at retail space is the bathroom. Lucky for us, the bathroom we acquired with the property was, to say the least, a real shit hole. Horror film comes to mind. The type of bathroom you'd expect an alien creature to crawl into someone's ass as they were taking a shit...(TMI, I know).
In the end, the KNYEW Crew really needs a nice & cozy place to rest our asses so a new toilet will most definitely have to make it's way into the budget. A bidet wouldn't be a bad idea either...and on that note, Crooked signing out!

...Till We Legendary

Today I woke up to an early morning text from my boy Beyond Belief, an up & coming artist from NY, & the message read..."the video is out! peep it!" After clicking the link, hearing the track, listening to the flows & watching the assortment of KNYEW tees that Beyond was rockin' in the video, I lost my shit! Check it out Knyewtrons..."Legendary" by Bas aka Bassy Bad Ass featuring Beyond Belief. Follow these crazy ass kids from Queens on twitter & look out for them in the near future.
