Rchecka & Uptownkid's Periodic Table of the Hip Hop Elements

[~J~C~O)))]

Even though I hate learning stuff and this has made my brain hurt, I'll still buy a t-shirt!

I am down for anyone trying to make money the legit way. I used run my own gig out of my garage printing T shirts.. trust me..the market is there for sure.. just gotta find a way to promote it to the right crowd..

Cool & Clever.

I can see it on a poster, but I might think an abbreviated Table might work better on a T-shirt, 4 the reasons mentioned earlier by JayQuan.

Good luck to you and P, Wiscompton

hey guyz? How come there isn't a spot for those studio wankstas up in here? still loving it gentlman

[Beatmaster31]

Might be too small to read on a T-shirt. Just my O.
A poster would be great, though.

I would love to see a big wall size of this directly in back of a dj on stage,
while he's going through his old school progressions and rocking something
from Ultramagnetic.

Excellent job.
Gotta search far and wide to find two cats with that type of OS dedication.


Peace brothers,keep it flowing.

Beatmaster, Eyegetz, and Bounty: Coming from you guys, I consider that a genuine compliment. I really appreciate the positive feedback. Beatmaster31, your posts are few and far between, I hope we see you more often here, you always are dropping some enlightening knowledge and I for one appreciate it.

I promise you guys, once this T-shirt drops the Elements will be fully legible, we will be using a larger font then the one you see, and we are getting a proof shortly that will guarantee it. We may do posters a bit later, but we have a T-shirt manufacturer right now waiting for an order number.

Make sure you make those shirts available for your OSHH Homies!

interesting idea - but needs to be funked up a bit - seems a bit "dull"to be put on a T-shirt or poster IMHO
I can see something in it but needs some work - i find on T-shirts simplistic slogans or logo work well - which are original and for a poster I would like to see explanations of the terms.. or some cool graphics..
I have been looking at some T-shirts recently and trying to see how this would work - maybe you have a group of elements or one element with an image next to it - I can envisage something like this working
just my thoughts..

Hope y'all two aren't gonna go to the trouble of printing these and then get 'em printed on wack quality, badly fitting, baggy collared blank tees.

Alstyle Apparel & Activewear tees all the way. Best quality/fitting blank tees for gettin' stuff printed on. All the best clothing lines out there use 'em.

mp, and Donn King...

You guys are gonna have to Trust me on this, the T-shirts will be dope. We ain't going thru all this work to put it on a T-shirt that falls apart in the washing machine in 2 washes, we have procured high quality threads.

mp, you are one step ahead of us. We were thinking about doing individual Element T-shirts as well, like one will be just a big square, with D (DJ) on the front on a 12"X12" square in the front, and our logo in the back. One for MCs, one for Graf, etc... We ain't there yet, but that too is in the works. Check out http://www.officialperiodic.com within the next few days, I updated it recently, and I plan on showing pictures of various style T-shirts soon. Other products will follow shortly, but first things first. Plenty of things happening right now and yall will be the first to know.

edit:
I need yall to spark my memory... Didn't KRS-1 do a song about Elements? I can't think of the name. I wanna put it as the primary song for my website, or any other songs that talk about the "Hip Hop Elements". Since I can upload music to my site, I might as well do some tracks about the 'Elements'.

Any suggestions would be appreciated...

Thanks!

I'm sorry to piss on your parade but i was in Hong Kong last week & saw a tshirt with the periodic table being used in a similair way. Although it wasn't using the elements the way you are, there were lots of music references along with loads of random stuff Just letting you know in case you run into some kind of copyright nonsense.

[isaac]

lol, i just submitted your home page to STUMBLEUPON rchecka.
you just might see an increase in hits

Uptown and I know of one other table. I know I'm biased, but it looks like it was made by an 8th grader during his recess break.

That one.^ There may be others, but none that have it Copyrighted. I wasn't gonna bring up my "competition" but that's not really competition. Anyway this kid named Ponky at the bottom of his page set him straight. There's something oddly cool about that guy ponky, he sure is on point.


Isaac, my man! Good idea, anything to get more hits is a good thing! That's awesome, I forgot about Stumbleuponit. If you haven't in a while yall should check my site, I put the perfect song about Elements at the bottom of the home page.
