Events for 04/29/09 - Wale, Collie Budz, Colin Munroe, Pep Love, DJ Scene, GMK and more!!!

Shouts to Reign City for keeping us awake on all the different things going on around the city on the daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, bicentennly!




Shouts to GMK and also Blogs is Watching! Both of which are extended fam-bam. I'll see ya'll in the building tomorrow nite!



I'm really upset that I couldn't make it out to this show tonite, I didn't get to catch him out here last time he came either. If you aren't into Wale, or Colin Munroe, or GMK(all of which you'd be crazy to not dig) you should definitely go scope Collie Budz. Pep Love is big bizz too and money can rhymes for days. Is like that ya'l, Hieroglyphics yeah.



The classic!!!! Boss Up and get to 2080's on a Wednesday night, it's totally awesome(No Mikey Day)!


More shows to come, keep posted boppers!

About Last Night

We were kicking it hella hard last night on the quest to see Meli for her birthday over at Nectar. We started the night off kinda late
(we are both minorities… black and Filipino means hella, CP time in two languages). We had to make a pit stop to pick up that goodie, goodie but after all that was brought and consumed we made our way there ready to kick ass.





Minutes after getting to the spot and one Jack on crack later, my second favorite band came on the stage. Enter They Live and they got crunk… after a few audio mishaps Gatsby and Bruce Illest and some dude pop locking and breaking… FUCKING KILLED IT!!! I never seen them perform live, but dudes were sick like polio in the 50’s.







After them a band that I know little about Weekend took the stage… the crowd got a hell-of-a lot thinner but I kept it true and became a bit of a fan. Home girl’s voice isn’t for everyone… she kinda reminds me of the first time people started to hear The Strokes… take it or leave…








After a few more Jacks on crack, Pearl Dragon and I smoked a few squares… my FAVORITE HIPHOP act to date (Kanye is more like pop and shit) Champagne Champagne!! They did like four new tracks… one improv track… and a fucking crazy long set. Pearl Dragon was not trying to get off the stage for shit.







NEW CHAMPAGNE, CHAMPAGNE track....



Overall I had a bang mode time… I sealed the deal with Jack in the Box at 230am and rolled my ass out of bed at 520am to get to work… Fuck sleeping, I’m mob out boy, till I fall out boy… (No reference to the talented band BAWSE)

A Full Throttle Hard one :)

MURS HEADLINE TOUR ANNOUNCED

Murs will be headed to the Seattle area OCTOBER 11th.

I'm SUPER excited because I just realized (I knew in my head before hand just refused to believe) that my brothers wedding day is the same day as Rock the Bells. So I'm sad to say I have to sell my vip ticket to Smizzy. But luckily I still get to see MURS soon.

MURS!
