    When it comes to hip hop memorabilia the Beastie Boys are connoisseurs; true understanders of the value of brand and its potential for useless (but collectible and subsequently expensive) offshoots. Even as we speak the brilliant UNIQLO store in Japan is featuring several Beasties derived T’s in its summer range.

    But very few acts have their own designer wallpaper. As in real wallpaper you put on Walls, not something for your computer. So collectors, up your game and paper the smallest room in Mike D’s hand printed Brooklyn wallpaper:
     

     

    Which comes in red or blue. Closer inspection reveals a hand design with several Brooklyn references, of which Biggie (The Notorious) Smalls is the most obvious hip hop affiliated. See if you can spot the Big Man:
     

     

    Mike D wasn’t promoting his wallpaper when he stopped in at JJJ last week for a chat but he did take time out to give them his “To the Five Boroughs” Playlist as follows:
     

    Manhattan – The Strokes 12:51
    Brooklyn - The Notorious B.I.G Juicy
    Staten Island - Wu Tang Clan C.R.E.A.M
    Bronx – ESG Moody
    Queens – Nas New York State Of Mind
     

    Which is a pretty fair selection all in all. Although we might all have our own alternatives, what no Lou Reed? Queens not represented by Quest? and so on ….

    Mike also had time to announce that (fresh from some collaborative tracks for the new Cassius project with Cat Power) he was planning to produce the next album by our friends Portugal. The Man. We can announce ourselves excited.
