@TheMadBloggers_ at the Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival

Good times were had by all on July 10th under the Brooklyn Bridge. Q and I took a few days off to meet up in NY for a weekend full of Hip-Hop. It started out with heading to the BHF under the bridge where artists such as Fashawn, Curren$y, Diamond District, Skyzoo, Rakaa Iriscience of Dilated Peoples with DJ Babu, Black Milk, Duck Down, Nice & Smooth, Pete Rock and CL Smooth, headliners De La Soul and more. Check the full list here. The Mad Bloggers were almost in full effect when we met up with @LadyBlogga at the show. Rocking our TMB shirts, Q and I noticed the hard work The Mad Bloggers have been putting in since last year's show. A few artists stopped us to chat it up letting us know that they appreciate us for posting their music. We also had a few of the site's visitors tell us they've check out the blog and like what we're doing with it from a cat that said he followed our Journey To Hip-Hop series to another cat telling us that he checks out the podcast. Very inspiring and motivating to us to continue the hard work. Minus the on and off rain and technical difficulties with the sound at times, the show was dope. All those acts for $15? Yeah. Hope you were there. Check out some of the photos.

Gotta Love New York & Knitted Bike Covers

New York is a funny place. Between the dude on the subway telling his girlfriend when they got home he was going to watch Twilight Zone, eat cashews and maybe masturbate to the lonely girl eating pizza in a corner to the other girl who stumbled out of the subway eating a double cheeseburger, the night was hilarious. Perhaps the funniest, this picture. Tell me NOW please lawd who knits a bike cover? Please, anyone. This is one of the funniest things I've ever seen and at 3:30 in the morning with a gang of drinks running through my system, it was even funnier. Gotta love New York.

Jass Bianchi "Late Bloomer" Video Screening & Art Show

Yeah, New York, New York! As you know the crew was (still is) in New York for the Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival on Saturday, July 10 (pics coming soon). While part of the crew was over at South Paw for the BHF after party, O and I trooped over to catch Jass Bianchi's video screening of "Late Bloomer", featuring live performances from Rising Sun Quest, Sketch Tha Cataclysm, Realest Reeken and others. Plus some dope art and great food. Yeah, GREAT evening. We'll have the "Late Bloomer" video up as soon as it's available, in the meantime check the flicks!
