Mercedes S600 iBusiness Sedan

I stumbled upon this and l thought this is one to post, to me its not just a car, its truely the "iBusiness", an absolutely unique luxury Sedan Mercedes car that combines the latest Apple components with a powerful Brabus engine. The designers from BRABUS combine this engine with an innovative multimedia system that features the latest Apple components. Two iPads in the rear compartment not only play movies, music and Internet content, they also control all functions of the S-Class COMAND system.

I don't know what everyone is saying but I'm saying Yaw needs to drive and get this ASAP!!!

A Sketch Shakur

Yesterday I got an email from a guy called Ashley Morris a.k.a  A Sketch Shakur. He asked me if  MESH would be interested in his work. It took me just a quick scan to commit to supporting this talent as best we can.

A Sketch Shakur got his nickname because people always remember him with a pencil at hand and say he resembles Tupac. Hailing from South East London this young artist uses bright colours in his work - the opposite colours to his area which he describes as "dark and gloomy at times".

A Sketch Shakur gains his inspiration from little things in his area, many of which go unnoticed by most people, and also cartoons from his childhood. He is also strongly influenced by 60s-90s music, which ranges from Hip-Hop to Motown to Jazz music, and also old American Sports logos.

Expect to see more of A Stretch Shakur in the forthcoming MESH e-Lookbook

Erykah Badu fined for ‘Window Seat’ video

Erykah Badu aka @fatbellybella has paid a $500 (£322) fine for stripping naked on a Dallas street for her 'Window Seat' video.

It was in March that she stunned everyone by gradually peeling off her clothes as she walked along Dealey Plaza for the video, shot for the single from her new album New Amerykah Part Two: Return of the Ankh.

According to Badu, her aim with the video was to compare JFK's assassination to 'the character assassination one would go through after showing his or her self completely'.

This is what Erykah herself tweeted about the fine:  "I am not on probation . that's a falsey. I received a situation . got a ticket for my tag hangin out my pannies"

This is quite a controversial video and I know people have different views on it....I can understand people not agreeing with it.  Personally I love her concept behind it (of which she goes into more detail about in the June/July issue of Vibe magazine)...but then again I'm way too much of a Badu stan to hav a non-biased opinion haha ;-p

Do you agree with the fine or whaaat?
