Tongue 'N' Cheek



'On Friday 18th September, Nike Sportswear and Mercury Music Prize winning recording artist Dizzee Rascal will release the Nike Air Max 90 ‘Tongue N’ Cheek’ sneaker. The sneaker was created in partnership between Dizzee, Nike Design and long-time Dizzee collaborator and creative director, Ben Drury. Will go on sale exclusively at Nike’s1948 store in London’s Shoreditch, ahead of the release of Dizzee’s fourth LP, Tongue N’ Cheek (Monday 21st September)' Highsnobiety
I have a feeling these are gonna sell out quickly. Despite the fact that im not That keen on these pink/ salmon/ chalky white AM 90's, details such as a reflective image that shapes like Dizzee on the heel and raised 'tongue' and 'cheek' text on the tongues are features that'll make the youths of london town and the stylish keisha's and kim's go bonkers for these. Running streets, goin on dirty, going on stank!



'This promo video has been created specially to celebrate these two releases. Art directed by Drury, shot by hype photographers Tim & Barry the same creative team behind the album artwork, also includes the skills of up and coming director/animator James Copeman. Set to ‘Chillin Wiv Da Man Dem’ – the sound of Dizzee at his most laid-back- the film fuses elements of the album artwork with additional footage, and is a light hearted look into Rascal’s world.'
