What’s going on out there world? It’s 2AM again. I am exhausted. Just got back from a big studio helping Outasight mix a record for his album. I watched the Grammy’s tonight. I thought they were good. I was happy to see a Viva La Hova performance. Props to Mick Boogie, as well as seeing Adele take home Best New Artist. Not bad, not bad at all.
Earlier today I was with Outasight downtown rehearsing for his Blender Theater show on the 16th. We ran through all the songs with the background singers, who are my homegirls Melissa Providence and Iris.Last night I was out in Brooklyn at Rare Form’s Donuts are Forever 3 party. Last year I spontaneously brought my camera out and captured the vibe of the evening and the people that were there. So, DeePhunk and the Rare Form crew made sure I brought my camera with me this year. I think I got some good stuff, and I’ll be throwing up a VIMEO of the evening in the next day or so. Granted it’s not hard to spin a Dilla set, but my man DJ Parler KILLED it. There was a lot of great people out. I got to talk to Saddiq and Wajeed of PPP briefly. Wajeed put it best, “it’s bittersweet.” At one point in the night I got really choked up because Dilla meant so much to me as a musician and it just got overwhelming hearing his incredible music knowing he’s no longer with us. Geology had on a baseball jersey style tee with Yancey on the back and the number 6! I SOOOO wanted that shirt.
This week is sure to be hectic as always as I got too many things to do and not enough time. I’ll be putting together my plans to be out in LA for a week and change. Looking forward to getting up with all my LA comrades. I’m too tired to write any more right now, and I can’t really think. Peace and love to all,
