Some tragic news hit the Hip-Hop community earlier this morning, Guru, 1/2 of the duo known as Gangstarr passed away due to complications from cancer. Loyal fans, family, and friends are all deeply sadden by Guru’s death. He was more than just a phenomenal emcee, Guru was a luminary that  brought enlightenment to all that were influenced by his music.

Bring back those old memories of blowing into your faulty game cartridges with this Top Gun harmonica! Imagine the look of surprise on your friends faces when they see you blow into this and realize it is not an ordinary game. They’ll really go wild when you start playing harmonica versions of some Kenny Loggins tunes!

This harmonica was constructed by using a vintage Top Gun cartridge and a Hohner harmonica tuned to the key of C. Included with this item are the circuit board that was removed from the cartridge containing the game rom, and also a sheet with the basics of harmonica playing, which contains sheet music for ‘When the Saints Go Marchin’ In’. Also included is a vintage slipcase. - MM

AllenIverson_600_060225

Allen Iverson was just as much a style icon as he was superstar basketball player when he entered the NBA in 1996, first being drafted by the Philadelphia 76ers. His trademark braids and full sleeve tattoos drove NBA commissioner Dave Stern crazy, and in turn he banned Hip Hop clothing from being worn off court while in front of TV cameras. However, Iverson continued to show his personal style as well display small guard skills unmatched by anyone in the league. With all the talk of the Virginia native being forced into retirement, Play Cloths salutes a true warrior in the game. Click here to read more of AI’s possible return to the NBA.
