08!

Yo! The year of 08 is coming to an end and y'know that means ya boys at BRIDGINGthe Gap hafta give out our awards.
Best album of the year: Johnson and Jonson. As you all may have probably realized, when it comes to Blu I am bias as hell. I believe that this album delivered, J&J FTW!

Best mainstream album of the year: Its funny most people are gonna say The Carter 3, I strongly disagree cause Weezy is the most overrated rapper on the planet and not only that but over half the songs on his album were bragging about himself. So instead I'm gonna give it to a album that I unexpectedly have really enjoyed, Raphael Saadiq- The way I see it. It is pure genius. This is coming from me who hardly listens to R&B but this album struck a nerve. It sounds so authentic and genuine, it is definitely a must hear. Crafty is all I can say.
Runners Up: T.I.- Paper Trail, John Legend: Evolver

Best Clothing Line Of The Year: Usually, I would say something like The Hundreds or ALIFE but that's all too common these days, they are still great brands but this time I want to give it to some brand that is exploring the new frontiers of streetwear, a brand that is coming up with more unique ideas than ever. This year I think that brand is Adapt Advancers.

Best Trend: Those Fixed gear bikes. Cause there is nothin' like ridin' down the slopes of San Francisco on some black mags. Dope.

Best people of 08: Y'know when I think about this award I think of two people that have had a tremendous impact on us, rapper Sene and rapper Donny Goines. Okay so let me start off by saying Donny Goines was our first interview ever. We thought after that we were done with that. But Donny gave us some advice and geniunly encouraged us to do our best. So now we started using Donny Goines's motto, "If you don't know my name I'm not working hard enough." For Sene he struck a nerve for us. The dude is so down to earth and so humble, he really deserves more credit. He gave us not only information for our interview but advice that will last a lifetime. To Sene and Donny, Thanks for the inspiration you made us where we are today. Stilldoes it, still livin' the dream.

Peace&GodBless. Many Prosperities For 09.
