New Music Monday (On Wednesday): Drake - Lust For Life


We really try to keep up (stay current) on Music that not everyone knows about, and even though I have heard the people speaking of Drake, I am very aware that there are still many people who don't know exactly who he is. So (clearing my throat), please allow me to introduce you all to Music Artist/ Songwriter/ Actor, Drake.You think you have heard of him? Probably so, as he has been in the game for some time now, and he has been flooding the mixtape scene with plenty of material for our listening pleasure. Chances are you have heard his voice on some Lil' Wayne songs in the past, and have even seen him pop up on Nickelodeon. Now he is making a name for himself as one of the hottest new artist in what seems to be a type of Renissance for real Hip Hop music. Check out Drake and let us know what you think and Until We Speak Again PEACE.

Hey Mr. President: President Obama's National Address February 24, 2009 (You Really Have To Watch This)


It took me a couple hours to load this video up, I had to debate with myself after finding that The Boss Lady has a crush on President Obama "I tried to turn into a hater but realized I couldn't really say anything bad about the man............. where does he work (he's the President), how money does he have (all the money in the World, he's the President), what kind of house does he have (the most desirable and sought after houses in America, the White House, he's the President)...................... So after getting over it, I jumped back on Team Obama and decided to do my part in helping this country re-achieve greatness. I'm telling yall please take the 10 minutes out of your schedule to watch this video, its really important if we want to grow right now. I will also say that you individuals that have contacted me about opening any type of business in the near future this message is for you. I would also suggest going to find the entire video online (which I couldn't), it's so important that we hear the entire message. As I have sated before, President Obama brings a level of Government transparency that we have never seen before. We hope you all enjoy this video and learn from it, as well as decide to do your part in the movement towards recovery. Please feel free to comment and until we speak again PEACE.

Kanye West and Kid Cudi Rip BET's 106th and Park

Well I guess if you look at most of our post you would think Lil Wayne and Kanye West got they hands in our pockets or something, but when hard work is put in we can do nothing but respect it, or you can hate it (Never a Good Thing). Anyway, Kanye West and Hip Hop's (not Rap's) newest star Kid Cudi came through BET's 106th & Park to rip the mic and that they did. Can't comment much cause I gotta get back on my Bob Vila (I have been building a desk all week long) but Mr. West kills it (explicit lyrics and all) and Kid Cudi did his thing. Hope Yall Enjoy and Until We Speak Again PEACE.

Kanye West: Speaking On Whatever Comes To His Mind

NO HOMO: But I think I Love Mr. West, you put him in front of a camera and something wild is bound to be said. Need proof watch this video as Kanye West (I don't know him to speak on a first name basis) expounds on just about anything and everything. A lot of accusations have been swirling around him lately, including questions about his sexuality, since his recent trip to Paris for Fashion Week, yet he hasn't been camera shy like most celebrities get when called out. He actually seems more comfortable now then ever, which is a GREAT Thing, because we all know we can never get enough of whats on his mind. Anywho, ENJOY, and Until We Speak Again PEACE.

Blogging Again Finally: Sneak Peek Unplugged 1:1 - James Robinson

Let me first start off by apologizing, I'm human, and when your running a business sometimes you can't be (check out my personal blog which will start in a couple days if you wanna know more on that subject). I really enjoy feeding yall this information through the blog, but sometimes there are not enough hours in the day for me to complete new post. Trust that my time has been well spent, ordering, making sure new stuff will be on the shelves soon, paying bills, etc. I am making a personal commitment to this thing and I will uphold it no matter how tired or busy we are.

With that said I would like to introduce something new that we are doing, its called Sneak Peek Unplugged and we will film it on a monthly basis. No mics, no hype man, no band, just the artist and a invited audience (THATS IT). The first installment comes from James Robinson. He is a very soulful singer with a lot of talent, creativity, and ........... (I dont know what to put). As everyone knows I am really into Neo Soul, and Jazz so he is like a perfect combo of both. I hope yall enjoy and will continue to support this project (we are still working out the bugs, but this is what we got so far). Let us know what yall think and Until We Speak Again PEACE.

Grammy's Recap: Hip Hop Is Strong

I'm really not into the whole award show scene, honestly before yesterday I never watch. The right people never win, the right songs never get performed, the shows are boring but things were a little different last night. Entertaining, indeed it was, as I was treated to two (2) performances from my Dad (Jay-Z) and two (2) from my brother (Kanye West).
If you missed the "Swagger Like Us" performance check it out below.

I was actually able to put a face with a great song that I have heard before from Adele (but not often enough), but because she not singing about selling drugs and shes not African American I guess we will never hear her music in Memphis (sucks indeed). Anywho, I found myself watching, trying to find out what these stars would be wearing, what new trends to pay attention to, what new brands would be seen, and how they were wearing them. Unfortunately everyone was pretty suited up (Wearing Formal Suits and Tuxes) guess I will have to wait for the MTV or BET Awards. I did spot some accessories that I'm looking into right now, but before I get back to that, I just wanted to comment on some things. Before I start, I just would like to say this is no gossip blog, but every now and then the info reported can go in that direction.

- If what is being reported is true, 2 Thumbs Down to Mr. Chris Brown. We have all been in those situations before, but Real Men don't do it. WE JUST SHAKE THE SHIT OUTTA THEM (IT SCARES HER, AND NOTHING ELSE HAS TO BE DONE).

- T.I owes me and the rest of Memphis some money. We all went to his show in December expecting to get that T.I that performed last night with energy, heart, and a bunch of other stuff and instead got a sub-par T.I and Friends. NOT COOL, JUST MY OPINION, I STILL LIKE YOU THOUGH.

- I really hope that Lil' Wayne continues to go hard in the studio as he has been, the chips are stacked against him for ever winning the Album of the Year, but if the new material I have been hearing is gonna be apart of a album, he will surely get his eventually.

- M.I.A, please kill yourself for wearing that thing. Big Ups for performing while pregnant though.

- My Dad (Jay-Z) is getting and looking old. Its cool though cause he is the King and no one will argue that.

- Jamie Foxx had the best shades on at the show (I'm trying to find out what they were)

- Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson should return to wrestling.

- Why didn't T. Pain get to perform at the show? By far one of the hardest working artist in the game.

- I could just keep going, and going, but I'm not. I got a bunch of work to complete.

Sneak Peek's "Everything Thats Left" Sale. 25 - 50% Off Everything In The Store


No Explanation Needed. I Expect To See The Shelves Empty By The End Of Saturday. Until We Speak Again PEACE

Lil Wayne invades .................................

Why leave the sentence incomplete? Well because Lil Wayne invades whatever the hell he wants these days. ESPN, ABC News, The Grammy's, Your Radio, My Radio, Your Favorite Magazines, need we say more. If he isn't the hardest working man in the game right now, I would bet the store for someone to show me someone else. You might be able to argue the fact that he is the Best Rapper Alive as he claims, but most relevant right now on February 5, 2009 he definitely is and no one can say he isn't. Regardless to how you feel about him, I'm sure many of us wonder who he is, what he is, and what motivates him to go so hard. Well maybe this video interview with Katie Couric will help unscramble the misconceptions and rumors about the man. Enjoy and Until We Speak Again PEACE

The end result is a beautiful combination that can only be completed at Sneak Peek - Memphis.

So we started thinking, we are sure alot of people go through the same things so what can we do to help. We all feel so good when we send a customer out the door with a Perfect Combination, and very rarely do we get a chance to see people in our clothes, so this blog segment is a tribute to the customers and staff who work hard to create these perfect combos. Some harder then others but never the less, everyone is happy in the end. Check out this and let us know what you think, more to come soon. Until We Speak Again PEACE.

Adidas Originals NBA All-Star Collection



For all of my Adidas fans out there, just wanted to hit yall with a little something to keep the mouth wet. The Adidas Attitude Low won't be dropping anywhere near here but if you know anyone who lives by a Adidas Original spot you should probably hit them up. These are special editions for the NBA All-Star Game in Phoenix, AZ that will be released around the time of the All Star Weekend which is February 13 - 15, 2009.

Side Note: Recognize the colorway, yep, yep thats it (I'm about to give the story behind the colorway straight from me, because I'm a Sneaker Freak). If your thinking I remember this colorway but don't know why, well these are the colors of the uniforms from the last time the All Star game was in Phoenix. No big deal right, well most Jordan fans will remember it as the first and only time Jordan wore the Icy White Patent Leather Nike Air Jordan 11 in a NBA Game (somewhat).

Only 500 pair will be manufactured and distributed so I would suggest yall get on it A.S.A.P. Enjoy and Until We Speak Again PEACE.

New Music Monday: John Forte x Talib Kweli - Homecoming

Well I have been debating all day as to which artist will make the New Music Monday segment, thanks to a new secret site, I have found so much music over the last couple days (and no we are not stealing, these artist want these records to be heard so they volunteer the tracks). Lil Wayne would be my obvious choice, no we are not Cock Riding, but dude is extra serious right now and Young Money is really coming along (maybe sometime during the week, when we have nothing else to talk about). Anywho, very surprising on the music scene this week has been Mr. John Forte, for those of you scratching your heads. John Forte was a artist from the Fugee's Refugee Camp who got caught up on some trumped up drug charges, he was convicted to 14 years in Prison but only served 7 before receiving a Presidential Pardon from now ex-President George W. Bush (one of the good things he did while in office). Guess Mr. Forte didn't spend his days just staring at the wall and lifting weights, because he came out of the hole spitting that heat. Check this collab he did with Talib Kweli over the Kanye West "Homecoming" instrumental. I'm sure much more will come from him in the near future. Glad to have another artist spitting that true, heart felt music. Enjoy and let us know what yall think, Until We Speak Again PEACE

New Arrivals from Flud Watches





For those of you who liked the 1st offerings we had from Flud Watches and for the guys who liked them but said they were too small, Flud Watches has finally released the Cartridge. A very stylish, futuristic looking wristwatch with a large face, a very comfortable band, and plenty of hidden features. We only have 4 of these in, one of every color, oppsssssss correct that we only have 3 (the white was just purchased). If you like it, better come and buy it, because you know how it goes down up here. Until We Speak Again PEACE.

Just To Get You Through Friday: Funny and Disturbing At The Same Time

Well I have seen numerous home videos of people re-enacting the "All My Single Ladies" video but this by far is the best. When I say the best I don't mean it in the sense of I enjoy watching the video, but the best in terms of it offers everything that a spoof (spin off video) should. It is equally entertaining, disturbing, gross, and it shows this mans talent (which clearly isn't dancing). I should warn you prior to watching, that this guys junk (his privates) is about a second from being exposed, so if you have any young children around you should probably make them go watch cartoons or something. Depending on how much we get done today we have a bunch more to post on the blog, so just stay tuned. Until We Speak Again PEACE

Smoking and Blogging: Never A Good Combo

Well it is now 12:10AM, just finished repairing the floor for our special visitors (well not really for them, its for yall, but it had to be done before they arrived). Anywho, were all beat, but before we leave I just wanted to hit yall with a couple things. As everyone knows I'm a Sneaker Fiend so of course I got a "Sneaker Woody" when I saw this. Nike is coming with the heat once again in 2009. No dates have been confirmed for any of these beauties but pics are sometimes enough to get us through the day. Check them out, analyze them, and let us know what you think. I will provide more details on each in the AM. You can Thank Us Later.





Tomorrow will be a pretty busy day at Sneak Peek, but we promise we will be blogging each and every day that we are open from now on. We hope to see everyone soon and until we speak again PEACE.

Hey Mr. President - President Obama Outlines Economic Stimulas Package

Don't get it twisted, we are a Streetwear Boutique, but with our goal at Sneak Peek to be socially responsible, we are well aware that there are plenty of people that will visit our website and blog before they will visit any of the News Outlets that cover politics. For this thing called "America" to get back to where we once were or better then before, its gonna take a group effort (that means all of us). Pay attention to what President Obama is saying, HE IS TRYING TO HELP US. We out for the weekend but we will back on Monday. Have a good weekend and Stay Safe, and Until We Speak Again PEACE.

Sneak Peek In The Community





Last Friday I had the privilege of visiting Lanier Middle School and teaching a 8th grade Math class for the entire day. My goal was to help the children realize how the things they were learning in their Math class related to everyday adult life, and various ways I attacked Mathematics while in school to make the task easier or even enjoyable. While I accomplished my goal, the kids gave me so much more then I could ever imagine. I wasn't really sure how they would even accept me but ITS FUNNY HOW MUCH KIDS PAY ATTENTION TO YOU WHEN YOU CARRYING A JAR OF CASH AND DRESS LIKE THEM (TEACHING TRICK). I'm looking forward to going back next month and hopefully taking some more people with. Check out these photos and see for yourself. Happy Friday Everyone, Fit Friday will hopefully return Next Week if we have time. Until We Speak Again PEACE.

A Day For The History Books: January 20, 2009


I awoke out of bed and something just felt different about today. My bed softer then ever, my shower hotter then ever, my breakfast shake fruitier (if thats a word (no homo)) then ever. I felt so capable this morning as though I could accomplish anything I put my mind to. Not that I haven't felt this way before, but today was different because not only did I know that I could do anything I wanted but for the 1st time ever the world saw that I could do anything I wanted, including rise to the highest position, in the highest office in the world as President of the United States of America. I couldn't quite get a grip of this prior to today but it all just set in and I feel bigger, I feel stronger, I feel smarter, and I feel more capable then I ever have. I and the rest of the Sneak Peek family would like to say Thank You to our 44th President of the United States of America President Barack H. Obama for everything you have done, are doing, and will do. We all wish you nothing but the best in the upcoming 8 years (yeah I'm claiming a 2nd term) and we will join you by doing our part to make this country better then ever before. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JUST TAKING IT ALL IN :)

New Music Monday: Martin Luther King Jr. "I Have A Dream"

I think its understandable that we have decided do something different on this day by uploading the video of Martin Luther King's " I Have A Dream" Speech from August 28, 1963.



I really can't explain the emotions I get everytime I hear the message but its a remarkable feeling that I wish we all could experience. I am truly touched to see that due to the work Dr. King and so many others put in during that time I am able to go to school, I am able to own a business, I am to look myself in the mirror and see more then what society expects me to be, I am able to VOTE, and so, so many other things. While watching the tribute video to Dr. King at today's Grizzlies game I couldn't help but think that the state of African Americans today would not be strong enough to deal with what was going on then. We don't have what it would have taken to not only uprise against our opressors but to keep going when they didn't give in immediately. I have taken deep interest in Dr. King's teaching, his life, and his legeacy since my teenage years and encourage all to just spend a little time understanding his work, who he really was, and what he was telling us. Sneak Peek, as well as myself are living products of exactly what him and every other person who was apart of any civil rights movements from the end of slavery to now worked for. Perosnally everyone at or involved with Sneak Peek - Memphis would like to say Thank You. Happy 80th Birthday Dr. KIng
