One of the more popular Hip-Hop artists at the moment, Wale pairs himself with John Mayer on a track dubbed Letter, produced by Mark Ronson. A bit on the more sentimental side, the cut offers insightful dialogue with assistance from Mayer’s versatile vocals. Unfortunately, “Letter” will not make it onto Wale’s highly anticipated album, Attention Deficit, slated for a November 10th, 2009 release.

John Smedley celebrates its 225th year with a collection inspired by childhood memories. Spring 2010 uses traditional patterns of stripes and zig-zags in kaleidoscope colors to create a truly classic range of garments. The collection draws on early associations, evoking carefree times and escaping the reality of grown up lives. New mercerized cotton creates a range of crisp, fresher styles for warmer weather, cool merino wool for the milder days, and superfine jersey serves as the ultimate layering material. All items will see a release in March of 2010.
