Dope MJ Tribute

Using an array of instruments and a mic, Dwele loops the sounds to reenact the ending to Michael Jackson’s record, Human Nature...RIP MJ

FOUR AMAZING WOMEN YOU MUST SEE

I had to post this to show. These four performers are my friends and some of the most talented women i know. I will be out of country but i truly hope you can make it. And if you cant make it and dont know who they are, goggle them. you wont be disappointed.

WE JUST LOST POSSIBLY THE BIGGEST GIANT OF THEM ALL.

i dont even know where and how to begin this.... By now I'm sure everyone reading this has already heard about Michael Jackson's passing. I feel like i grew up with MJ. He has been a huge star ever since he was a child. Has revolutionized dance, music videos and how to make a hit record. I dont know if i can name another artist who could sing an uptempo better than MJ. if you disagree just listen to P.Y.T. and then let me know. Missed isnt a suitable word. A black hole has been ripped through the entertainment world. I thank MJ for all he's taught me, and for adding so much to the soundtrack of my life.

YOU SAY NO HIP HOP, THAN YOU SAID NO JEFF!!!

Over the weekend, Jazzy Jeff ended his set after only 15 minutes, after the management of this Kansas City club told him not to play Hip Hop. HUH? Do yah'll know who you brought to play that night? They said they only talked to him about the volume, which is wack because the sound can easily be controlled by the sound man at the board. He had every right to leave and i would have done the same.
