Peace out 2007

“Rasta don’t work for no CIA”

As I searched the isles of Big K looking for a last minute gift for my little cousin, I realized that within a few days, I’d be ushering in a new year (hopefully with a few drinks in hand). With that in mind, let’s reflect on the last 12 months…

First and foremost, THE ALBUM IS DONE!!! I must say that completing The Adventures… with 100dBs has been my most rewarding accomplishment of 2007; the public has received it very well. Reviews and write-ups from okayplayer.com to Scheme Magazine have all been positive. I’m also eternally thankful for all of you who’ve supported this album; you helped to make 2007 a great year for my music career. Keep in touch. Make sure to keep up with me,

2007 was filled with parties and shows in and around NYC. Along with Theory Events, China1 was locked down every month, from the Artcrime series back in the summer to the 80’s Homecoming this past November. Over the past 12 months I was busy performing in shows across the east coast. I was seen at the Knitting Factory, College Park, MD., Fontana’s, Niagara and China1.

I’m looking forward to taking on 2008. I’ll be releasing an EP of b-sides and previously unreleased tracks with Tense from back in the day. Nothing big, just a little something for you to marinate on while I get the next full length ready. Make sure to keep your eye out for me and 100dBs at China1 every last Saturday. I’ve been putting in some time behind the decks at home, you may start seeing me behind the DJ booth at some of our parties.

In the meantime, have a Happy Kwanzaa, and good luck on those resolutions
peace
