Featuring guest stars:  Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, Diplo, Nicki Minaj, Katy Perry, Rita Ora, Chris Rock and Kanye West along with fashion designer Alexander Wang and Madonna's sons Rocco and David, the "Bitch I'm Madonna" video was shot on the 17th floor at Andre Balasz's Standard Highline hotel and in its clubs the Boom Boom Room and Le Bain.

About Feelgoodz:

Feelgoodz was founded by Kyle Berner while backpacking through Thailand. After the flip-flops he was wearing one night broke, he began his search for a new pair. He came across a pair hanging from an interesting display and found them to be the most comfortable pair of shoes he had ever worn. Made from natural rubber, the flip-flops proved to be both comfortable and sustainable. The idea of producing these particular shoes drove him to create Feelgoodz in New Orleans in 2008. In 2012, the company relocated to Raleigh, NC where Feelgoodz continues to support farmers and artisan cooperatives around the world. Please visit www.feelgoodz.com for more information.

MUNIT Headphone Are Premium Fashion Accessories for 2015

Headphones are a form of fashion accessory in the modern world.  Often the headset we choose makes a statement and accentuates our sense of style.

MUNIT, known for their distinctive aesthetic design and enveloping submersive sound is setting the standard for what we know as a true premium headphone. Munitio, a high performance headphone company with a meticulous standard of quality, has been reacquired by Daniel Massaro, the creative force who conceived the brand.  

From the first limited-run release of 18k-gold plated, 9mm bullet shaped headphones (NINES) in June 2010, Massaro's vision for MUNITIO has centered on engineering audio products with uncompromising attention to detail. With a lifetime of passion for music production and an expertise in manufacturing techniques typically reserved for military and aerospace technologies, MUNITIO is known for building headphones that are as aesthetically impressive as they are auditorily ferocious.

"There's a movement and quality matters.  People are waking up...and that's why brands like Munitio need to exist in the world." Says Massaro, who is revolutionizing the headphone industry.

Munitio redefines the way you experience music and allows you to feel the quality from the moment you hold the product in your hand. As featured in Forbes, Wired, Billboard, Maxim and a favorite among celebs, musicians and athletes, Munitio's distinctive aesthetic design and enveloping subversive sound is setting the standard for what we know as a true premium headphone.
