Damn, I can't even front ya'll......My batteries are so charged up from this last weekend, I feel as if I am ready to really go in extra heavy this year...While many complain that Hip Hop is in a state of emergency, I know for a fact Hip Hop is stronger than ever...
Last Friday I had the opportunity to spin at the "Aero Soul 2" jam that popped off in downtown Oakland.......All types of heads showed up, young and old for a night of true talent, dedication, graff, originality, and of course much fun....

YO DRAS, AMONG ALL DEM BLOGS IM CHECKIN, YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE WHO STILL REP THE ESSENCE OF UNIVERSAL HIP HOP CULTURE. THE GRAFFITI CHRONICLES U KEEP POSTING ALWAYS BRING POSITIVENESS HOLMES.
THANX FOR NOT FORGETTING WHY WE THE YOUTH LOVE THE MOVEMENT... N OF COURSE ALL PAINTINGS ARE BANGINGS!
Thanx man......Were living in a era where so-called Hip Hoppers do not pay proper homage to the foundation........But it's not going to stop me from doing what I need to do.....
I appreciate your opinions my dude......
Peace-
