Official Sponsor Post

Official Sponsor Post
This is the official sponsor post of The Based Update. These are the people that I represent and they are the people that help represent me. I get a lot of questions either from Twitter, Facebook, or E-Mail about... What is that your wearing, where do I buy that shirt, hat, etc. These couple sponsors are about 95% of everything I wear wherever I go. These sponsors might not be the biggest in the world, but they are moving to the top quickly as you can see if you haven't been following them already. So, what this post will do is direct you as to where to go to update and improve your swag if you are trying to do just that.

--------Pink Dolphin Clothing--------

You want a clothing line to really follow season by season and never have any worries or disappointment? Then, Pink Dolphin Clothing is your answer. Every single new season drop clothing styles and quantities are getting bigger and better. Still exclusive, but still enough to get around. This is the line that I put out the most! This line is something that I do not only represent, but something that I am a small part of, and hopefully soon that part will become bigger. This clothing line isn't one of these lines that you just hear about, but then when you see the clothes you go ehhh... the clothes speak for themselves. Pink Dolphin was started Spring 2008 with just promo logos on t-shirts and sweaters. It has now grown into a legendary culture with grassroot followers. Pink Dolphin will continue to push the boundaries of fashion and art, which is why you need to know them now. So, be ready for a lot of new things coming this 2011 year from Pink Dolphin Clothing.

--------Filthy Dripped--------

Live in the Bay Area and you don't know of a legit clothing store that doesn't have all the same clothes and brands in it? Then look no further because now you know of the Filthy Dripped clothing store. Filthy Dripped is literally a one-of-a-kind place. If you are like me, then you like getting clothes that you don't see people wear. You know, the clothes you see artists wearing and the clothing brands you see online and you can't seem to find a place to buy them. If you are like that then you need to make sure to check out their store in the Hilltop Mall in Richmond. You will be able to get real unique-swagged-out clothes that will definitely improve your overall style aka your swag. If you are reading this and you don't live in the Bay Area, you don't completely miss out, all you need to do is order yourself some clothes from the online store. Also, as an end note, Filthy Dripped is the only store in California that has Pink Dolphin for sale. So if its sold out online, check out Filthy Dripped.

Roach Gigz New Mixtape - Roachy Balboa 2

Click Here to go to Roach Gigz site and Click Here to download his newest mixtape.
As a fan of Roach Gigz, this is honestly another masterpiece of work from Roach. I have only listened to it through one time today, but I think its real cool, and different in a good way compared to the first Roachy Balboa mixtape. RB1 was like a real "slap master type" of CD, a lot of real up beat tracks, a lot of bass and good music for the house and the sub-woofers for the car. This new tape puts the same first mixtape feel, but even better. There is still that mix of up beat, bass, and bay area slap to it but there is also that feel of music that you really "feel." The type of music that you can also chill to and nod your head to while your hanging out by yourself or with friends. This is defiantly something that I would suggest downloading and listening to. If you want to learn more about Roach then check out Roach Gigz interview on this site from July earlier this year. Hopefully I can get another one soon on the site. Also if you want to get to know Roach Click here to follow Roach Gigz on Twitter.

This is the newest Roach video from RB2 entitled "Can I Rap"

If you could do a favor to music lovers, put this mixtape around. Play it at parties, slap it around your town, and even make copies of it to give out to people. This mixtape is free so its okay. It needs to get around to more and more people.

Starting 6 "Yogi" Video Shoot

STARTING SIX, THE POPULAR BAY AREA HIP-HOP GROUP THAT BROUGHT YOU THE YOUTUBE HIT “THIRSTY” IS SET TO SHOOT MUSIC VIDEO FOR “YOGI”.

December 22, 2010 - Berkeley, CA -- Since the success of “THIRSY”, STARTING SIX has since developed into a dynamic talent as a group. Realizing that the director of the video for “Thirsty” was a key part of it’s success, STARTING SIX has tapped the shoulder, yet again, of one of the Bay Area’s few most talked about directors, CHRIS MOROCCO.

At almost a half a million views on Youtube, “Thirsty” is both STARTING SIX and CHRIS MOROCCO’s most watched piece of media.

Both STARTING SIX and CHRIS MOROCCO have big shoes to fill, and will create nothing short of another masterpiece to outdo their previous success.

“YOGI”, an eclectic mix of acoustic sounds, smooth pop melody, rhythmic R&B and Hip-Hop influences, is already proving to be another head-turner. The song has received notable feedback from the hit making duo, The Cataracs, as well as other Indie Pop artists. With their trademark party hard style and undeniable charisma, Starting Six will be adding a grown man swag to the mix proving to be a MUST-WATCH for 2011.

Bobby Brackins NEW E.P "Live Good 0.5"

Bobby Brackins NEW E.P "Live Good 0.5"
Bobby Brackins new E.P "Live Good 0.5" has 4 tracks: 143, A1, I'm Ready, and Break It Down. Everyone already knows the hit 143 ft. Ray J and his newer single I'm Ready, so all the attention turns to two new songs; Break It Down ft. Cataracs and A1 ft. Dev. After listening to them, they do not disappoint at all, I can see A1 defiantly being Bobby's next hit of the young 2011 year!

Bobby Brackins still proves with just a few new songs released towards his first official album dropping next spring, that all his music is dannon (If you dont know what that means check out his twitter or YouTube). You can easily listen to this E.P over and over again just like any of his music out now. His music never gets old, JUST PRESS PLAY AND PUT IT ON REPEAT.
