..........."cause to me MC means MOVE THE CROWD"

Greetings and Happy Independence Day


I pray everyone is well and enjoying your Fourth! Okay well this is a quick post that is a little long over due and since I have been on vacation just thought I would take the time to share with you all.....finally.

Now I am a Hip Hop head and when I say hip hop I do not mean a lot of stuff we hear on the radio. I love artists such as De la Soul, Mos Def (Yasiin Bey), Talib Kweli, Tribe called Quest, The Roots, Wu- Tang just to name a few, and since I was a kid about 9 or 10 (showing my age) I have loved METHOD MAN and REDMAN. I had the pleasure to attend another RED and MEF show on June 6th. Me and my sistafriend Vanessa ventured to Los Angeles to the Belasco Theater and watched this Dymanic Duo do their thang. Now I have not seen them live since 2007 but it was like I never missed a beat. If you haven't seen these two preform you are missing out. They put on a show.

They tell you before the show....."you only need 2 things when you come to a Red and Mef show.....energy and weed" and since I didn't bring weed I brought my energy. Here are some pictures from that night.




 Me and Vanessa at Lola's a martini bar before the show. Such a cute place.




Dynamic Duo, great show....energy, mosh pits and stage dives.


after the show...nothing but LOVE and RESPECT.
the aftermath.....on the way home.

soooo If you love Mef and Red like I do and haven't seen them live...please do or if you have a favorite artist that you love to see live let me know or share with me the best concert you have been to. Thank you in advance and have a wonderful FOURTH.

AIN'T NO PARTY LIKE a GRITS and BISCUITS PARTY................

Greetings and Good Afternoon,


First of all how are you doing and how is your week going? Okay now I am a little late with this but it's better late than never right? Okay now May 25th me and my cousin journeyed out to Hollywood, CA and went to a Grits and Biscuits party held at the House of Blues Sunset.

What's a Grits and Biscuits Party? It's a big party basically, people come from all walks of live to come and get their party on. Nothing but southern rap is played all night. There is no dress code, in fact they tell you "ladies do NOT come in heels, do NOT come all dolled up because you are going to be twerking all night and you need to be comfortable.

I have heard about Grits and Biscuits probably the beginning of May, I knew they had 2 parties held in Brooklyn and I also knew Grits and Biscuits was an annual event. They have had parties in NYC, DC, North Carolina and now L.A and I believe their next stop is Chicago in July. So if you would like anymore information about Grits and Biscuits visit their site www.gritsandbiscuits.com and if they are ever in your hood go check them out guarantee you will have the time of your life. I know I did. Here are a few photos of our night.

sorry for the low quality pictures I was using my phone but you can get an idea of how packed it was.
And this was a little taste of my first Grits and Biscuits experience. I had a BALL and I will indeed  be attending again. I want to go to the next one they have in NYC I will have to see about that. But I will be going again when they come back to Cali. So comment and let me know if you have heard of a Grits and Biscuits party or if you know someone who has been to a G&B party of if you like to eat Gris and Biscuits....I know I do lol. Thanks in advance and have a lovely evening.
