(Special Invitation. Hostess with the Mostess, Leah, of Married to the Mob)

Last week, I was let in on a secret VIP night that Nike held for the street queen of New York City, Leah, of the clothing line, Married to the Mob (MOB). It was an invitation-only gathering of NYC’s coolest ladies who drank champagne and customized the sickest pair of sneakers. Very clever gathering for everyone. I brought the vinyl, Nike gave me the tables, and refreshingly enough, I was lucky enough to play an old school hip hop set to a room of women who appreciated the classics with respect. Lots of head-bopping and mouse-clicking and sneaker-making happening on Mercer street that night.
