NPSH and Christopher the Skateboarding Lizard



Wow, haha, the video above documents Seattle band Natalie Portman's Shaved Head and a lizard that they found, up until his accidental death.

"I promise you that I'll do something really good for like... a hundred lizards or more someday because of this" All too funny.

Straight Outta 206: Ryan Lewis



Meet Ryan Lewis: Seattle Hip-Hop's most affiliated star, you just don't know it yet. Mr. Lewis isn't a rapper, but he's possibly the most unique/creative producer out of Seattle. To get familiar with his music production, head over to his myspace where you can snag free downloads of his EP collaboration with Macklemore, "The VS. EP", and his album collaboration with Symmetry entitled "LP".

Here's one of my favorite songs produced by Ryan Lewis, this is off of the Macklemore x Ryan Lewis "VS EP":


Oh yeah, when' he's not pumping out fresh beats, Lewis is a photographer/designer. He's done photo shoots with Blue Scholars, Grieves, Macklemore, Grynch, and more. To quote P Smoov on Grieves' song "Lazt Kall":  "shoot every rapper in Seattle, call me 'Ryan Lewis'". On the designing front, Lewis created album art for Grieves' debut album Irreversible as well as the covers for both the Macklemore and Symmetry collaborations with Lewis.
Here's a still taken by Ryan Lewis from the video shoot for Macklemore's "The Town" :

Update: Check out this video directed and scored by Ryan Lewis, starring Macklemore:
