The Knux just might be my favorite new hip hop group out now. They’re young, they’re fun and they have something to say, which is rare considering I can’t understand a gosh darn thing that comes out of Soldier Boy’s mouth. His whole thing is “Tell ‘Em” but what the hell is he tellin’ em? “You to can make it big if you rhyme like you’ve been huffing paint thinner over some beats made on My First Sony.

Anyway, check out The Knux if you haven’t because there is a reckoning coming and change indefinitely will come.

Let me know in 3 days.

Everybody knows I’m not a fan of that “Love Lock Down” track by Kanye. The beat is dope but I’m over the vocoder. You remix (”mash” really) with JUSTICE and I like it a little more. But only because it’s JUSTICE.

I’m not loving you like I wanted to.

If you like that hard, sexy, crunchy, funky electro dance music then boy/girl do I got a doozy for you. Crash Overdrive. . . Ever heard of them? No, well you have now you have. This sounds like they put on a pair of shit-kickers and angel armor and straight stomped out a dumptruck in a mosh pit.

YES, it is that awesome.

Flipping more than just scripts. . .

Now at first thought one would thing that mixing alcohol, heavy machinery, and loud, hard dance music in a gym with a bunch of party seekers on a Monday night would be ill advised or at least a bad idea. On the contrary, it’s the BEST GOSH DARN IDEA EVER!!!
SPL soldiers The Italians (Head&Hand and Alessio) and KAGE rolled up into CRUNCH Under The Gymfluence party and got wasted around some really beautiful and fit people; made me want to do more exercise than just lifting a pint glass to my mouth and clicking a remote. These are just some of the pics from this monster. There was circus s#it, a crazy dance floor, exotic dancers, and I almost made out with a cute ass photographer (Damn you whiskey lips!!!).

Peep the pics HERE.

Props to Shelly at CRUNCH for the pics and SKIMKIM for holding down the bar and the grub.

After that, prepare yourself for Wednesday, October 22nd because Children of Da Curb is throwing a dope ass party in support of research and cures of breast cancer for Breast Cancer Awareness month (October is more than just Halloween and Colombus). Peep the info and flyer below for more details.

So I’m excited to say that I managed to get another one of my designs for Ten Bills on the back of Michael K. Williams aka Omar Little from The WIRE and most recently in Spike Lee’s Miracle At St. Anna without the help of mind tricks or spiked drinks. Head over to tenbills.com immediately and cop this plus other dope ass tees for, well . . . $10 bills. That’s like the best deal since they started handing out free water balloons in high school.

Wait, those aren’t water balloons? Then what are they for? Ohhhhhhh. Sara Palin is definitely against those. And apparently Bristol Palin is too. OHHHH SNAP! Burn! Facial! Suck it!

What? . . . That joke is late? Damn. Whatever. . .

Yes, this is correct. Your peoples at The ShadowPlastic Label, YUME, and The Brooklyn Tee Party are having another joint. This time to celebrate the end of EYD’s incredible run at the YUME Gallery.  We got live art from EYD ONE, Tees on sale, drinks (BK Sunset. . . remember that?), and the mighty MIGHTY Adam’s Castle tearing the place down once again and it is ON like a condom in Thai massage parlor (thanks for that last line KAGE).

It’s going down: Tuesday October 21st at the Tea Lounge, 7 p.m. till 11ish. There is also going to be a live broadcast from WLIU Radio and a salute to the one year YUME anniversary. Basically there is a lot going on.

Tea Lounge, 837 Union St. b/w 6th & 7th Aves. Subway : Q to 7th Ave, 2/3 to Grand Army Plaza or M/R to Union St.

Be there and don’t get made fun of.
