Since New Year 2009 is just around the corner, we, umusu crew would like to wish a happy new year to our readers!
A lot of things had happened and a lot of plans have been made for this new year (assignments, work, side-projects etc). These sadly, forced us to stop blogging about the street culture. We just don't have the time anymore to continue to bring you the latest hype.
Umusu won't be around with you guys starting next year but anyway, Umusu crew hope that we all will continue to live up the street culture spirit.
Cheers!
