Black Mongoose kicked off last Friday Jan 2nd-and I was there-as well as
Unknown (my fav producer),
Oddisee,
K-Chromosome,
Flex Mathews and hella other cats like
DJ CAM One I aint seen in about 2 winter moons! It was a small, yet good-vibe set with Oddisee actually dropping a pretty dope verse accapella!
Black Mongoose is at
Chief Ikes every Friday with Flex hosting-$5 in DC! The night before I hollered at the
Wu at 9:30 Club. Tell the truth,
Brooklyn Zu was decent den a mug,
Icewater?-meh- and
Wu? Let's just say; they were better before-long before...I've seen Wu twice in the past five years and it of course doesn't come close to them in even '02-forget the late 90s!! We all know the songs, but it was lack-luster, which GhostFace musta felt, cos dude was out. THe Wu at 9:30 gets a 6 on a scale of 1-10 this time around, but genius always gets a pass for past brilliance so I'm
not hatin' in the least!On the 10th I went to meet Selamwit from
Shade Magazine at Tryst, we got turned away (sorta) from Section 8 where in the drizzling rain I couldn't bring my ball cap in the club-mind you now-not simply I can't
wear my cap, I couldn't bring it in to the club at
ALL! Why? Probably because the bouncer hates his job and wants the venue to lose money...at any rate Selam & I wound up at
Velvet Lounge and peeped
Melo-D & The Rados who were opened up with
Jarrad Anthony, and
Rosetta Stoned (?!? we missed them!?) Of course I hit up Black Mongoose again, and peeped
Tamu,
Hed-Roc Ardamusand other heads I've not seen in a couple of winter moons!
If you out in DC-I'm here, let's be there!!
