This summer has been such a musically influential period in my life. I’ve discovered a new found love for more uptempo soul in all it’s forms, visited different venues to hear new (to me) DJs, played out of my normal setlist, and been humbled out of my own comfortability of how I see things from a musical perspective. It’s been an amazing journey and I have my close...

i'll take care of you
I got an early birthday present from my man this last weekend. He bought me two tickets to see the legendary Gil Scott Heron at Yoshi’s this last Saturday. Though man man was unable to be my date that night, I was blessed to have brought my favorite mother/MC/Artist/heroine homies, Melina Jones. Who turned out to be perfect company.
The night was full of warmth & laughter from Gil Scott...

SPOTTIE (new diggs)
I could never spell it but “spottieottiedopaliscious” (because i google checked) has one of my favorite hooks in any song in the world. There are not any real words to the chorus but you’ll have EVERYONE humming to the melody when you play it and all will be getting mad hype. Anyway, ran accros this record in my recent travels and the spottieottiedopaliscious cover is the...

Ran across this public letter from Guru’s sister on DJ premier blog on twitter.

from the bay to LA
I planned a trip to LA to chill, shop, kick it with folks. One of my homies from down there hit me up and asked if I wanted to hop on the bill for an after hours party down there… And I could NOT say no. So this Friday, (tomorrow 4.16) I will be rubbing elbows with De La Soul’s very own Maseo. I’m stoked!
Feeling very blessed and honored to be a part of this event.

New Amerykah Return of the Ankh - BADU AFTER PARTY
I’ve been very excited that Erykah badu is going to be in town to promote her new album: New Amerykah Part II -Return Of The Ankh. An album I have been anticipating for months. She is definitely one of my all time favorite artist. (I think looking back at all my blog post, it’s obvious). The other day, I was asked to DJ her after party. I almost peed my pants with honor and excitement....

Happy Heart Day people…
In one of my first tumblr post I talked about getting Bobby Caldwell’s heart shape single “What You Won’t Do For Love.” I think I even said, ‘this would be my ideal valentine’s day gift.’ I ended up buying it for myself for my birthday… Since then, I’ve been doing what I can to collect heart-shape and other...
