NSW X Futura X Syracuse | A Night to Remember @ 21 Mercer

A few nights ago 21 Mercer had an event to celebrate the launch of the much anticipated NSW X Syracuse collection designed by legendary artist Futura. On hand were a few Syracuse Alumni, Paul Harris and Brooklyn’s own Dwane “Pearl” Washington accompanied by ESPN’s Jay Corbin and of course “Futura”. The night started out with a little Q+A led by Paul, Dwane & Futura (as he (Futura) stated, would like to be called “Lenny”) hosted by Jay Corbin. After some brief discussion and some laughs the guy’s hosted a raffle for 21 signed Futura basketball’s, immediately following the 21st raffle ticket that was picked, the 22nd went to one lucky winner, Gerald, whom won a free Bespoke session with Futura. The Bespoke session went down last night and Futura spent some time mingling with the crowd and signing shoes. We had the Syracuse game broadcasting on 5 TV’s,and everyone stuck around to make it truly a night to remember. We want to thank everyone who came out last night especially Futura, Paul Harris, Pearl Washington and Jay Corbin.

A Night with Primo | DJ AM/DJ Premier Pack | Launch Party | 21 Mercer

A couple of nights ago, 21 Mercer, with DJ Premier on the 1′s and 2′s along with a packed house of customers, fans, DJs, friends and family celebrated the release of the 2 Pack of shoes along with exclusive Serato vinyl, Primo rocked well into the night celebrating the life of DJ AM. The line began earlier in the day and food, drinks and music provided by the man behind half of the exclusive pack made it a night to remember. Paying homage to DJ Premier and the late DJ AM were fellow industry heads such as Tony Touch, DJ Riz, DJ Hiro, DJ Soul, Clark Kent, DJ Eclipse, Ed Lover & Buckwild to name a few. Primo had the building shaking and heads bobbing dropping classic joint after joint. He went into a set of 90′s joints and when he dropped Mass Appeal Ed Lover grabbed the Mic, and simply put the whole night into words saying something along the lines of that there is nothing better than this, this joint is perfect, timeless, it just makes you move. He had the whole building smiling.
