swagger Mountain Riders Jacket

swagger has just dropped yet another leather jacket, this time one that is sheepskin lined. The “Mountain Riders” jacket takes design inspiration from traditional biker jackets and is accordingly created from a thick, premium leather. Detailed with numerous zips, the jacket is asymmetrically fastened and features a double-belted waist band to provide an optimum fit. The jacket is now available in either black or in suede-brown from swagger chapters across Japan.

Amber Rose Shops & Hops In Her Lambo+Willow Smith & J-Hud Set For Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve

Amber Rose is still shopping it up all around town these days.  She didn't let her recent back injury stop her from hitting up Barney's in Beverly Hills and then speeding off in her Lamborghini.

Pics of the now solo blondie and her jeggings, plus news on who's working it out for Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve, when you read on.

Amber's been stuck in bed for days.  But not for a good reason.  She tweeted:
“Hey my Loves….been in the bed my back is killing me the Doc said I don’t have Kidney stones but I might have a slipped disk smh."
But check out her sweet Lambo she jetted off in after getting out the house for a while to do some heavy duty shopping yesterday:

Nice.

Bow Wow Speaks On Suicidal Thoughts+Swizzy & Alicia Adopt A Whole South African Village

Celebs aren't just adopting one kid from the African continent anymore.  Swizz Beatz dished that he and his wife Alicia Keys have adopted a village in Soweto, South Africa. After going there to film a process between a woman with AIDS and her daughter, the couple was so enamored with the large village, they pledged to build schools and other support for the people.

We've got the deets, plus Bow Wow clearing up his suicidal Twitter thoughts, when you read on...
The people of the village asked Swizz why rappers in America are always talking about killing each other when they have hot water and shoes on their feet and money and things no one in their village has.  And it was an eye opener.
“I'm just sitting there, kicking it, talking to the locals. Mind you, they have no water, they have no heat, they have no electricity, [and] they have tin houses. So I'm speaking to this one guy...and he was like, ‘This is beautiful what [you're doing], but we have no water, we have no this, we have no that. We have no tools. How can we help better ourselves?’” said Beatz.

Since the encounter, the couple set up a meeting with the local government, which granted them approval to purchase containers, ultimately allowing residents access to heat and hot water. They have also started an education program for the men in Soweto in hopes that it will help them get jobs and build their village. Of the Soweto people, Beatz added, “Instead of being mad, disgruntled, ignorant [about their economic disadvantages], their vibe was like, super-Zen.”
Nice.  Peep the vid.

Bow Wow hit up my girl Angie Ange's show over on D.C.'s WKYS this week.  And he dished about those crazy suicidal thoughts he was posting on Twitter a little while back.

On his suicidal threats
He compared himself to Macaulay Culkin in Richie Rich.  He says there's just times people won't let him just be himself, they always expect him to be ON.  Not Shad Moses.  Sometimes he just wants to shop at Target and not get criticized for it.  He didn't mean suicide literally, just needed to vent and say some days he really just wants to be Shad and not Bow Wow.

On Kat Stacks
He says he would never go back and forth with her on Twitter like other rappers have.  He's been in the game long enough to know the game.  So if baby girl needs to lie on rappers in order to make ends meet, he's not mad.  It's just entertainment.

On changing labels to Young Money/Cash Money
He said ihe just needed to protect his brand.  Columbia didn't have the tools to carry on his legacy--and he was the only rapper on the label.  They do well with the R&B solo artist like Beyonce, Maxwell, John Legend and others, but they didn't have the tools to connect to his younger fan base.  He got his deal with Cash Money done in a week.

On Raz-B molestation drama
A lot of these young cats didn't have guidance in the game.  He was around Snoop and Jermaine so he was never around suckas.  If it's serious allegations, there's a better way Raz could handle this situation.
