Everything KAWS touches turns to gold. His latest collaboration with Disney is no less. You can definitely expect these to sell out the day of within seconds. This looks so fresh! And yes, Jiminy is part of this collection. KAWS also linked up with Looney Toons and put out a Tweety sampler for display. Check out the rest of the pix after the jumper.

1. KanYe West’s 5th studio album, Good Ass Job – Hate him all you want, but we all know who’s making the greatest and most timeless music in the industry. The man is truly ahead of his time, has set countless trends and continues to strive for perfection with every project. Ye’s been hella quiet, but the music has been talking. Fellow producers like Pharrell and Preemo have been talking about the Ye album and everything is looking quite right for Mr. West. Good Ass Job is possibly the highest anticipated album of 2010. Sorry, Drizzy!

2. Miranda Kerr – Orlando Bloom’s ex has been on fire and literally getting the men fired from work (read the latest GQ article).  Peep the pictures in the post below.

3. The OriginalFake 4th Anniversary Frogskins – A collabo between OriginalFake x Lance Armstrong x Oakley x Frogskins. The limited release is bound to disappear the second they drop on May 29th @ OF store in Tokya. Great work KAWS!

4. Twitter – Excellent tool for networking but a horrible site for ratting your own bidness. #watchforthecops Follow us @wafflesandbeatz

5. Aaliyah – If it wasn’t for you, the new single would be shitty. We miss you!

6. Janelle Monae: ArchAndroids (Suites II and III) – Buy the album. Listen. Listen again. Think about it. Tell all your friends. Repeat.

7. Tim Hortons Iced Coffee – Ice Caps are so overrated. Try it!

8. Up In The Air – Possibly the best George Clooney film ever. The story was amazing, the cast was brilliant, the humor was classy and the twist was mind blowing. I also suggest watching the Fantastic Mr. Fox right after. Once again, brilliant cast.

9. FIFA World Cup 2010 – Get your flags out, put your jerseys on, bring the beer out and let the matches begin! If ya can’t wait till June 11th, cop the World Cup edition for the PS3 and get into the spirit.

10. COPE2 x Montana Colors Limited Edition Can - Anything with a COPE2 tag is a must have/collect. The South Bronx native recently linked with Montana Paints for an exclusive collabo.

Interview Magazine recently caught up with KAWS and conducted an interview via ex-Spiderman.  How odd. Spidey manages to cover KAWS’ background origins, his interest in toys, influences and much more. A must read for all KAWS fans. Great job Spider!

I Like these better than the Air Force that came out with Kaws. FRESH!!

Kaws tearing shit up in ’97. His recent gallery show “Saturated” is taking place in Miami and has already been a massive hit. The gallery contains several SpongeBob and Smurfs inspired paintings, including a few which are owned by Pharrell Williams himself. The show is running till mid November. Damn, I wish I could be thurr!
