[![Banned-3d-cover](http://hypebot.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451b36c69e201a3fb8874f1970b-250wi "Banned-3d-cover")](http://hypebot.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451b36c69e201a3fb8874f1970b-popup?ref=hypebot.com)

Finding fun ways to catch people's attention that tie into one's music is not always that easy. Flosstradamus apparently has a thing for aromatherapy and essential oils or, at least, that seems to be the thinking behind their vaporizer and hard drive combo featuring their latest mixtape "Banned 3D." While I Am Trigg is busy spreading fake parking tickets to promote his "Stop and Frisk" protest song.

**Flosstradamus and the Art of Aromatherapy**

**[![Flosstradamus-banned-3d-vaporizer](http://hypebot.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451b36c69e2019b0414d41e970d-350wi "Flosstradamus-banned-3d-vaporizer")](http://hypebot.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451b36c69e2019b0414d41e970d-popup?ref=hypebot.com)** 

Flosstradamus released the first two editions of their "Banned" mixtape series [on SoundCloud](https://soundcloud.com/flosstradamus?ref=hypebot.com) as free streams and downloads. For "[Banned 3D](http://banned.merchtable.com/accessories/banned-3d-vaporizer-hard-drive?ref=hypebot.com)" they're getting a bit more physical:

"THE OFFICIAL FLOSSTRADAMUS VAPORIZER HARD DRIVE IS THE FIRST OF IT'S KIND. NOT ONLY IS IT A VAPORIZER THAT CAN HANDLE YOUR FAVORITE OILS BUT IT ALSO CARRIES A 6 GB HARD DRIVE. THIS FIRST RELEASE WILL COME WITH THE NEW BANNED 3D MIX! EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE ONLY ON THE VAPORIZER FOR A LIMITED TIME!"

At $50 one has to wonder about the quality of the components, except for Flosstradamus's work, of course.

Don't forget:

"THIS PRODUCT IS INTENDED TO BE USED WITH AROMATHERAPY HERBS"

That big orange ticket! Is it fake or a [savvy New York music promotion](http://animalnewyork.com/2013/jeans-rapper-promotes-stop-frisk-song-fake-parking-tickets/?ref=hypebot.com)?

"Scanning the QR code in question leads you to the slickly produced music video for '[Stop and Frisk](http://youtu.be/kMJZjBr4B4U?ref=hypebot.com)' by a rapper named I Am Trigg, who denounces the NYPD in a Future-esque staccato flow."

This affair set off a [deep and nuanced discussion](http://www.reddit.com/r/nyc/comments/1txxxg/i%5Fgot%5Fa%5Fticket%5Ffrom%5Fthe%5Fd3pt%5Fof%5Ffinanc3%5Fi%5Fwonder/?ref=hypebot.com) on Reddit.

Job well done!

And that's it for another edition of "ALL CAPS IN QUOTES DAY."
