I don’t usually talk about the shows I go to…

But I gotta mention last week’s ridiculous Rakim/Ghostface/Brother Ali show (props to DJ Styles & Fashion for the pics & Chonz on the list, Radio Bums in this). I’ve seen Ghost perform less inspired sets in the past and heard rumors that Rakim used vocal tracks, but both of them came correct for the show and CRUSHED it (maybe the dope live band, the Rhythm Roots All-Stars, helped inspire them). Seeing Rakim energized by the band was just AMAZING, dude is the god MC, “not on a list” (c) the 18th Letter, and finally seeing him in person was powerful. There’s still a couple more dates on the tour, definitely check it out if it comes to your town.

P.S. That’s me & Ghost backstage, you’d be cheesing all goofy too if you just asked him to hold up his chain for a better picture…ahahahahaha…I’m an idiot.

My records are on TV!!!

Well not yet, but soon. I recently sent a couple of boxes of record covers out to NYC for the set of an upcoming VH1 hip hop/fashion series that looks dope. The show has a real interesting concept (I don’t know if I’m allowed to give out all the details yet) and should be out soon (I’ll post more details soon). Anyways, I don’t really have a good reason to post this other than the fact I’m a record nerd (serato is great and all but DJs with no records get the gas face) and get amused by the randomness that is my life, maybe some of you guys checkin the site care.
P.S. I’ll be back soon with some real news. Real big news. BIG. NEWS.

Saturday, 10/27-> Catch me downtown at Theorie

Maybe you read about it in the papers or maybe you’ve seen it sitting in the space that was the Denver Real World house. Maybe you’ve heard about it’s packed Saturday nights from a friend or maybe you go there every week already. Regardless, come check me out this Saturday, October 27th at Theorie downtown (1920 Market Street). It’s got a similar upscale, elegant vibe to what Bar Luxe had, but on a bigger & better scale plus with me spinning a diverse mix of soul, R&B, hip hop & more, things are gonna be dope.

This Friday, 10/26, come celebrate the Halloween at the Solution w/DJ Low Key & Sounds Supreme and catch a dope art exhibit from none other than local hip hop/art diva Little Wing featuring her trademark skeleton inspired work (check the sick piece below). Also, from 9-10 we’ve got 1/2 price stoli drinks & $2 coors light at the bar, so come check us early. Lastly, big up all the people who’ve been coming through the spot every Friday since we moved to Buddha, the party has been packed since day one and we appreciate the support. 776 Lincoln on the Funky Buddha’s (heated/all seasons) Rooftop.

After the Solution ends, the party’s not over, come check me spinning at 2 AM Afterhours (12th & Broadway, entrance in the Alley) in the hip hop room. 2-4:30 am every Friday night/Saturday morning.
