Grind Time

SOUTH FLORIDA SWAG CONCERT

-

-

-

Boy . . . . A muthafucka can't tell me i don't grind for this shit. LOL

-

-

-

1st off, I caught the Tri-Rail up there. The show wuz at a lil lounge spot on the FAU Campus in Palm Beach County. Seemed like the easy route, because the same address for the Campus wuz the same address for the Tri-Rail Station up that way.

-

-

-

SMH. LOL.
It didnt quite turn out that way.

When I got off the train, there wuz no University in site, so I footed it to a nearby StarBuck's, copped me an African Red Bush Tea & asked for directions.

-

The dude behind the counter drew a map on the back of my receipt, which looked crazy like this.
(minus the road names)

-

-

-

I aint gon' tell you, I got lost on foot for almost 3 hours in Palm Beach County. Couldn't even get hold of the promoter at first because his phone wuz off, but I know I ain't go up there for nothin', so I kept it moving.

-

When I finally made it there, the spot wuz filled with college kids eating & drinking, vibin' to the muzik.

-

Shit!
After ALL that walking, I needed a drink, so I sipped on some fake Guiness drink that got me tore up. LOL
(Made me get in chillax-mode quick)

-

-

-

The event wuz hosted by Broward County's 1st Lady, Stitchiz.

-

-

First, they had Mal-Jay of Grenade Records perform & crunk up the crowd for your boy.

-

-

-

Then I went up & Took 'Em 2 Church.

Made alotta fans that night too. Majority of the folks in there stepped up to me wanting CDs & contact info, so it wuz definitely worth the 3 hour walk. LOL

-

-

-

Didn't really know how I wuz finna make it home. Mostly everyone stayed in Palm Beach or Northern Broward, but I figured if worst came to worst, I would've just stayed the night at the Tri-Rail station.

-

I just chillaxed, vibin' like it wuz ALL GOOD & here comes my dawgz from Lil' Haiti = 43Kingz.

-

You can't tell me the Law of Attraction ain't real.

-

-

-

Other artists that did their thang included The Hood Diezel

-

-

Jules = The Haitian R&B Prince of the South

-

-

-

And of course, last but not least, my dawg Lumo Da Gr8.

Yall look out for him. He's got a Nate Doggish, harmonizing, hip hop style with a Florida swag.

Me & him definitely finna get it in with a collab for yall soon.

-

-

-

After it wuz ALL said & done, and we wuz bout to leave, the white girls came bumrushing me & 43Kingz. (must be the dreads LOL)

-

Over ALL, it wuz a pretty cool nite. Goes to show that when you keep that positive energy flowing, even when the situation might seem a lil' off, you will alwayz have a positive outcome.

CHUNKY CHICKZ UNSIGNED HYPE
{SHOWCASE & NETWORKING PARTY}

A lotta people try to throw open mic.'s & showcases, but these girls got this shit on lock. Unlike the average showcases that are thrown once a week, Chunky Chickz run their's once a month.

& Unlike other open mic.'s that claim to have abuncha big industry people coming thru that never show up, they have everybody that's anybody in the house.

-

-

The first Unsigned Hype that they threw wuz held at Literary Cafe'. But there were so many people that came that everybody was shoulder to shoulder from the bathrooms to the parking lot. They actually had to turn people away bcuz of the lack of room.

Of course i performed, but there were other talented artists too. Great rappers like Wilameana Jones, singers like Rimidi, & poets like Richard Da III tore up the stage.

Spectators consisted of Talent TV, RGS Productions, Street Connect DJs, promoters from Club56, Dreams2Reality Ent., & SlipNSlide Records just to name a few.

(Here's a pic. from the 1st showcase with me & 4x Def Jam Poet, Will Da Real One)

Empress & the Chunky Chickz are definitely doin their thang. The second showcase had even more artists including 43Kingz, Young McFly, Peazy Li'jon, Cognac Black, F.O.D., Mr. Vicious, & JJ Heffner.



They actually had to move the venue to a larger spot (Indigo 7).



Spectators consisted of Elora Mason (Florida's Biggest publicist), Jam Squad DJs, Feel Good Ent., 89.1 thestreetsfm, 88.7fm DaBlaze, Poe Boy Management, Lex Promotions, & IBlog126 just to name a few.
