Cakedout, a division of Triumvir as you know just made a new drop last Friday so the pics above are the pieces. If you like any of the tees (there are plenty of dope choices) go to www.cakedout.com and get yours. Below is some background on the line's new drop:
With a satirical sense of humor and a severe infatuation in pop(ular) culture, the creative team behind CakedOut translates these influences into piercing and witty designs. For this upcoming Volume 8 collection, CakedOut focuses on the style and swagger of the 90’s and West Coast hip-hop. Through their creations, Mikey and Vincent nostalgically reminisce the past and apply these inspirations to poke fun at the present.
A fitting example of this is the Dream tee. By taking the iconic D.A.R.E. program logo, and assigning a new acronym (D.R.E.A.M. – Drugs Rule Every-thing Around Me,) the graphic becomes a commentary not on illegal narcot-ics, but rather the suspicious expansions of pharmaceutical companies even during a time of economic recession. Another key design is Electric Relax-ation. The prisoner giving thumbs up while being electrocuted is a comical means to point out the ironic glorification of troublemaking and mischief—a central theme of both the 90’s and CakedOut.
