Ropeadope's Love Movement

As the resident Ropeadope dickrider for 5151 it is my duty to inform everyone that they have dropped yet another line of rad clothing for you to wear in this year of 2007. The Love Movement is another social conscious line of clothing making use of positive concepts and, of course, some ill designs.
Ropeadope OWNS Philly. Seriously, next time you are out on the town just try and go an evening without seeing someone in something Ropeadope...and why not? Dope clothes provided by a local-based company supporting progressive ideas. Sounds win/win to me. Personally, sign me up for the Tank Design or Our Two Hands.

My Love

If I wrote you a symphony...Call me candle guy cause I am on fire.
Way too much Justin Timberlake. I never thought I would find myself liking Justin Timberlake so much. For all the ladies that don't have dates on this Valentines and wish they did, just close your eyes and listen to My Love.
I'm not big on Valentine's Day, the over commercialization of one of the most beautiful essences of existence. Treat your partner like everyday is Valentine's day and let them know they're loved everyday.
Meanwhile, I'm sitting here all sentimental at relationships gone by. My first love, my current love is music. She has always been there for me and always will be. She comforts me, keeps me warm and keeps me going. Without her I don't think I would be here.
So without further ado:

• Michael Famous - Valentines Day Mix
• From The Stencil
  
• Low Budget - Smooth Holiday Mix
  
• this is actually from around Christmas, but there are only like two christmas songs and the rest are just smooth jams from Michael Tender
• Mad Decent blog posted up a zip of some classic tracks you should have in your life
• DJ Scottie B ft Samir and King Tutt - We are your friends ( never be alone) club mix
• soulpsychedelicide - VDminimix

  3. al green - simply beautiful
  4. gregory isaacs - night nurse (kruder & dorfmeister remix)
  5. sade - lovers rock
  
• Fluffy - VD minimix
• 50 Cent - A Baltimore Love Thing
• This has had special meaning, I date this girl from Bmore for quite awhile. I told her I was listening to this and thinking of her, she wasn't too happy

The Love Movement at Threadless

The Love Movement is an incredible art collective originally based out of Philly but now in LA still loving and representing Philly always. Check out what Ropeadope has to say:

Trippin through Philly I picked up on the scent of The Love Movement - one of the city's more prolific and creative coalitions. With love as the backbone, and social awareness as the neckbone, art & design take over as the weapons of choice. Dropping bits and pieces of objects in the community that beautifies and educates. An idea worth emulating.

Their main social awareness project right now has to deal
TLM currently has three tee shirts up on Threadless for you to vote on. Check 'em out as they're killer. My personal favorites are the one above and this one asking the all important question, "What if Saddam Skated?"


All money from the Darfur shirt will go to benefit the efforts with SaveDarfur.org. Click now to sign the pledge.

Additionally, all sales from The Love Movement art go to a village in the West African nation of Benin. Their most recent project was to build a well.

Vote now for With Our Two Hands, Save Darfur, What if Saddam Skated? and NBA or Art?
