I’m not the hugest rock fan, but I am a fan of music. To me, good music is its own genre in itself. No specific genre is greater than any other. Good music is good music. I could go on and on, but I’ll spare you… I first heard this song because Charles Hamilton sampled [...]

Dim Sum
Monday, August 30, 2010
The other week my girlfriend and I went around San Francisco taking pictures and video for some upcoming Lemon Hawaii projects. While we were out we decided to have Dim Sum for lunch in New-Chinatown. I posted some pictures of our order, the dessert was deep fried sweet rice balls with some sort of nori [...]
Represent (Various Artists)
Friday, August 27, 2010
No matter how far from Hawaii you are, you can never forget your hometown and where your family is rooted, my roots are in Hilo. A few months ago a good friend of the Lemon family (Na`ea from Ho`okoa) approached me with a design project for his audio engineer. The project was a CD cover [...]
Shwood
Thursday, August 26, 2010
Though summer is slowly coming to an end, whether it be fall or winter, sunglasses never go out of style. Pushing the envelope and bringing the recreation of wood to another level, Shwood is quickly making a name for itself. Based out of Portland, Oregon and using wood found locally, Shwood has some truth behind [...]
R.I.P. Aaliyah
Wednesday, August 25, 2010
Today marks the ninth anniversary of Aaliyah’s passing. She was one of the greatest artists during her time, teaming up with Timbaland to make such classics as “One In A Million”, “4 Page Letter”, “Try Again”, “Are You That Somebody?”, and many more. I can only imagine that if she were still alive today, she [...]
The Bizzness!
Wednesday, August 25, 2010
Everybody is used to Lemon dropping a new design once a month, and I know it seems like we have been a little under the radar for the past few months. However we have a good reason for doing so, here is a little sneak peak of what the homies at Lemon have been working [...]
8mm Dopeness!
Tuesday, August 24, 2010
Some of you may or may not know but I do most of the editing of videos for Lemon Hawaii, and I have a strong passion for film and video, the concept always amazed me. If a picture is worth a thousand words than a video is way doper. I can remember at the age [...]
For The Love Of The Game
Saturday, August 21, 2010
Check out this dope little video made during the World Basketball Festival in New York. Some of the NBA’s Elite and even Michael Jordan himself give their insight on the love of the game and their love in particular. I always feel that having the love for the game allows you to succeed further than [...]
Upside Down
Friday, August 20, 2010
I just downloaded this mixtape from up-and-comer Bei Maejor, and it’s really dope. This kid is only 23 years old, and he’s got tracks with T-Pain, Keri Hilson, Trey Songz, and Drake. Don’t sleep on this kid. He will be the next huge thing to blow. Download it here. And here is my favorite song [...]
Words of Wisdom
Friday, August 20, 2010
This is a clip out from an old magazine. The magazine has been out of print for more than a decade, but the words on this paper are still heavy. I like to think of this quote when I’m in the lab working on shit. It pretty much sums up the mentality we have and [...]
