God Damn, that DJ made my day.....

I went to check out Feel Good Fusion on friday night. FGF is a free 18+ hip hop show they hold over at the Terrace every last friday. Much props to Seano and Denkym for putting on some good music. They know their hip hop...but the crowd is exactly what i'd expect out of an 18+...alot of 18 year olds. There were a few fights that broke out (completely unHIP-HOP).

But the highlight of the day if not the week...was meeting one of the most influential DJ that really changed MY LIFE when it came to hip hop and music in general. I was able to buy him a drink of Hennessey and coke to show my appreciation for all that he had done. We spoke for a couple minutes before he was grabbed by some groupie love.

To speak a a bit on him. He's part of the World Famous Wake Up show that is still on to this day. I spent many of my friday nights/saturday mornings in Junior high/High School staying up from 11pm-2am taping the shows. To me it was the only day of the week that I was able to listen to indepedent artists and music that influenced the genre itself.

What a blessing......
