No Church In The Wild

High5Collective releases a music video for Jay-Z and Kanye's "No Church in the Wild" which features up-and-coming R&B singer/songwriter Frank Ocean from their collaboration album, Watch The Throne. 


The High5Collective, often abbreviated H5C, is a group of independent visual artists based in LA. As a production team, they began releasing videos in May of 2011. The collective gained exposure mainly through the Indy blogosphere, but also received some support from larger websites









The High5Collective first gained attention with the release of their unofficial video for the song “The Morning” by the Toronto-based independent R&B singer, The Weeknd. On May 31st, 2011 the video was featured on Pitchfork in the Forkcast section of the website. On June 2nd, 2011 it was also featured on Rolling Stone’s website in which they described “[It] plays out like a sexy nightmare in which a group of party girls wander around the desert in a daze before encountering a mysterious man with a sinister, corrupting influence.

Tom Ford’s Five Commandments For Men


Tom Ford’s 5 Gentlemanly Commandments:
1. You should put on the best version of yourself when you go out in the world because that is a show of respect to the other people around you.
2. A gentleman today has to work. People who do not work are so boring and are usually bored. You have to be passionate, you have to be engaged and you have to be contributing to the world.
3. Manners are very important and actually knowing when things are appropriate. I always open doors for women, I carry their coat, I make sure that they’re walking on the inside of the street. Stand up when people arrive at and leave the dinner table.
4. Don’t be pretentious or racist or sexist or judge people by their background.
5. A man should never wear shorts in the city. Flip-flops and shorts in the city are never appropriate. Shorts should only be worn on the tennis court or on the beach.
Now those are some wise words on how to act and treat a lady. I also totally agree on the flip-flop comment, there’s nothing worse than a hot guy with bad shoes, er feet. Thank you Tom Ford!
