Be a part of Chum’s birthday party live on Ustream tonight at 10pm!

Sunday Night Sound Session

Hours before MiC K!NG would hop a plane back east after touring Canada for most of January he stopped by Sunday Night Sound Session to rock out with DJ Hyphen and J-Moore on KUBE 93.

If KUBE 93 is Seattle’s Hot 97 then Sunday Night Sound Session is the Stretch & Bobbito show. They play all the new flavors and this past Sunday they got an cup of “Flavor Ade”

Here it is if you missed it:

Blacastan & KWOTE Scriptures

First of all I want to say that the New London Release Party was a fun time and a great success. Only one of the many Cool-Aide parties to come, Chum and I aimed to make the event more of a party than a rap show. We had the incomparable KWOTE Scriptures hosting the evening. He was very funny, engaging, and added flavor to the evening. We also had Blacastan perform. He rocked a dope set as well. Fishr Pryce was on the tables briefly as well. I personally would have liked to see him rock out some more but it was great to seehim killin’ it in Philly. We had a tweetboard that made for a lot of funny moments during the evening and in a lot of ways may have helped bring people start doing things they may not have otherwise done that evening.

We had a lot of good people in the building that evening and rather than have me tell you

Lemme tweet that!

what I thought of the show, I figured I’d have them tell you in their own words. I mean you already have “Flavor Ade” I imagine you’ve had enough of me bragging. Here we go! All pictures by Michele Pacheco!

The party definitely doesn’t stop after the jump!

This is Philly You Welcome to Come CHECK US!

The high quality pictures in this fantastic post are provided by the equally fantastic Liz Padova. She’s a food snob and great photog. Get to know her. The low quality ones are from my favorite cousin Tamika’s camera. Ladies she’s the girl cousin I call if you need to get rocked!

Philadelphia is notorious for its lack of support and even so every once in awhile I get a strong feeling of optimism and I say “hey, why not do a show at home for once.”  The Philly release party for Flavor Ade was one of those times. I enlisted a bunch of rappers as well as super DJ Fishr Pryce and said “hey guys let’s have a party!” Verbal Tec recently had a his first child (congrats big homey!) and Dos-Noun just moved back to Pittsburgh so Parts of Speech has been all but dead as a group for a few years now but they are easily 2 of my favorite rappers in the universe so I convinced them to come out. Dos-Noun flew out in the middle of his finals. He is the truest. Has-Lo is featured on the “I’m the Best Mayne” and is easily one of the most unsung emcees in Philadelphia so it was a must that I have him rock as well. And last but not least my dude Al Mighty formerly of a group called MAGr from Camden was on the bill to rock it because he’s dope and I like him. Basically myself and Dom Pinelli from Public Axis put together a show that I wanted to see.

And everyone delivered. Fishr Pryce was killin it on the tables. He had people rockin’. I was milling around getting drinks trying to get my head in the game and Fish and me dancing and greeting people that I hadn’t seen in years and some that had just never seen me perform before. Before he played I’m pretty sure I was in a bad mood because of issues with the sound and things but once Fish got on I was back in it and was excited to party!

Much much more after the jump!
