Our friends at  Cultureshoq team got together with Ronnie Fieg of David Z. to collaborate on the Asics Gel Lyte iii, a sneaker that has made a major impact on sneaker heads across the globe. Ronnie chose to work with 3 of his favorite blogs including Cultureshoq, Highsnobiety, and Nicekicks which happened to be 3 of our favorite blogs too. The first to be released from the “Trilogy Project” will be the Cultureshoq Gel’s. Check back at cultureshoq for more info.

Hello my name is…
Mel D. Cole, bitch!

I was raised in…
The ’Cuse, son!

The reason that you’re reading about me is…
I gets all the cutty, I’m one of the best concert and event photogs of the last two years, and for Villageslum.com and my blog Highsnobiety.com/the_columns/village_slum/ and my crew, Leroyjenkinslimited.com.

Right now I’m working on…
Getting paid, getting pussy, and my first photo exhibition.

But I’d rather be…
Doing nothing but what I am already doing…Trying to get pussy, money and working on my show.

My most prized possessions are…
My health, my camera, my CPU, my dog, Dutchess, and my BlackBerry…I die when it’s fucking up.

But I’d give it all away for…
One night with Bai Ling. I would yam that shit the fuck up! Good god damn she is fucking hot!

The first thing I do in the morning is…
Check my BlackBerry.

The last thing I do at night is…
Jerk off.

My momma always said…
Do you, son!

I love it when people…
Tell me they know and love my work.

I hate it when people…
Talk too damn much or/and when they think they know every fucking damn thing.

If you ever see me walking down the street…
I am more than likely on my way to some open bar, or going to shoot a concert or jumpie.

My most notable run-in with the law…
Was the most recent one. I got caught taking a piss outside in
Williamsburg, BK.

If I had to say sorry it would be because…
Fuck saying sorry! I had to piss!

I get real aggro when…
What the fuck does aggro mean? I mean really…WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN?

The last time I swore I’d never drink was after a night of…
Sex with four, or was it five, hot bi chicks at the same time in Vegas during Magic. Don’t believe me?

Future projects and plans…
Stop taking happy-ass pics like the one above. I wanna go on tour with some bands this summer. And travel more…London, Cali, Texas?

And before I leave I’d like to give a shout out to…
Bliz, Tommy, Urondo, The Loc, Cali Boo, Liz, Shawn, Streetwear and all the girls. Yeah, even the one that gave me the mighty mites 16 years ago.
