hey guys. here’s more footage from the video set shot by JON PHENOM (designer, stylist, jack of every trade). http://www.jonphenom.com/home.htm

this video is so on point. the dialogue is true to form…”none of them will be able to measure up to the FALSE memory of what you and i had”. GNARLZ BARKLEY keeps doing the most creative videos. yay.

behind the scenes of JUNIOR SANCHEZ feat. JOEL and BENJI MADDEN / ELEVATOR. damn, i’m no where to be found in this though

my homie KID CUDI had a mixtape release party, sponsored by 10 DEEP and FOOLS GOLD at the RED BULL LOFT. it was a PLAIN PAT production, so you have to know the music is the truth. i’m so excited for CUDI, can’t wait for the world to love him as much as we do in little new york city.

CUDI asked me to introduce him, and i was a little nervous. KANYE had just showed up and the crowd was going berzerk. anyways, here is how it went.

*SADE, ELLE, MIMI, JAE, & COOL CHRIS.

*never not working.

*MICKEY FACTZ and I had a freestyle cipher. come on fam, you know who won. starts with V and rhymes with MASHTIE.

*COOL CHRIS and SABEL (back in town, finally!!!)

*WENDY NITROLICIOUS is always styling on you.

*KANE-YAY.

*working the crowd.

*CUDI killed it.

*me, ELLE taking a flick.

*a TRINI sandwich with ATL in the middle. FERRIS, ELLE-INGTON.NET and me.

*ELLE, me, and S DOT.

*EMILE (super producer), WENDY NITRO, CUDI and me.xo, vashtie!

we kicked off our first party at SANTOS with a big bang. NAS came through and later, BUSTA made an appearance. it was madness. that venue is the flyest thing in NYC right now. it makes me feel like what i imagine new york was like in the 80′s! *MIKE (FRANK 151)(i’m only in a lot of these flicks bc i broke my camera and ELLE was photographer for the evening).*ELLE and TIP.*GRACE, the bestest mentor i’ve had thus far.*CHRISTIAN (FRANK 151).*NAS and ELLE-INGTON.*ANNA BANANA.*RAUL and S DOT.*NAS and BUSTA (what it is right now).*MR.PINK and RAUL.*S DOT and OSCAR WILD.*even my boy from ALBANY, DAVE, came through. i’ve known him for like 15 years and i don’t get to see the lad enough! check out his mustache tattoo on his fingers.the party was insane. wish you all can make it next time.

it takes me a super long time before i can become friends with someone because i am a weirdo, but when ELLE was first assisting me during an editing session she broke out all these amazing jokes and won me over. at one point she referenced this AMAZING documentary on HBO about junkies in relationships – “DOPE SICK LOVE”.
