VIDEO: My 4 Year Old God-Daughter Amaya Dancing

vashtie — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 16:57:11 +0000

Watch her Grandfather show her some moves and looks what she busts out when he asks her if she has any moves to show him.

I can’t believe how big she’s getting. Feels like just yesterday I was in The Bay, getting her baby self dressed for her Christening.

MUSIC: MeLo-X – “Fire Geomu”

vashtie — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 03:52:08 +0000

I’m loving this song by the homie MELO-X, which was directed by the other homie TONE (who shot the Jasmine Solano video “That’s Not It” directed by me – where you can also peep an appearance by MeLo).

Yes. Yes. Yes.

You know how much I love me some Santi! Finally she’s blessing us with new music and new videos.

This song has a dope afro-beat feel and the video has an interesting blonde mermaid being gobbled up by a tiger as Queen Santi sings…“Gaga-ga, all slightly off”.

Not to mention, she looks flawless in the video and the name of her album is “Master of My Make-Believe” — I love it!

watch: LESBIAN MOMS AND KIDS ADDRESS HOMOPHOBIC MICHIGAN MAYOR

vashtie — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 19:34:49 +0000

Last week I missed this bit of stupid news regarding a Michigan Mayor who revealed her dislike for New York on Facebook. The reason why…because “QUEERS” can get married there.

Wait, is it the 70′s? She seriously used the word “Queer”?

Ok.

And yes, she’s a woman. The irony here is that I know some dude is reading about this very incident and he’s saying to himself, “they let broads become Mayor?”.

Tisk, tisk.

Check out this video of how Married Lesbian Moms and their two daughters address the situation at a City Council meeting:

Check out this new and super talented artist I’m working with who goes by the name SID SRIRAM. “2AM PRAYER” is a song written and performed by Sid.

“I strongly believe all music should come from a very real place. I wrote this tune after losing very close family members in the past couple months. Here’s a stripped down, piano/voice video to the song, hope you guys dig it. The video was shot/directed by Arthur Johnson and Cale Hawkins is on keys.”
-Sid Sriram

Stay tuned for more from Sid! I’ll be hosting a live show soon where he will be performing his first show in New York City!!!

vashtie — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 13:18:58 +0000

Seriously. I couldn’t be more excited about new music than I am right now. I spent years stuck in the late 80′s to late 90′s.

Now…I am embracing the future.

I was recently put on to NOSAJ THING by EDDIE CRUZ when I was in LA for the release of the NIKE AIR MAG’S last week. NOSAJ, or JASON, is a Korean American electronic artist from California.

He is sick and needless to say – I am a fan!

vashtie — Fri, 19 Aug 2011 18:09:29 +0000

If I ever met Bjork I’d probably cry and bow down at her feet. I’d probably even sell my soul for her and Matthew Barney to give me a baby, which I imagine would levitate and have secret powers.

Basically, I live for this woman!

vashtie — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 04:27:33 +0000

MAY 2011,

When writer Alexis Swerdloff reached out to write an article on me for THE NEW YORK TIMES, I was shocked. In fact, I thought it was a cruel joke. Seriously…Me? In THE NEW YORK TIMES featured in my very own article?!

As I realized this was no joke, but a reality – I was so geeked. The days leading up to the publish date I joked that I would go to to Astor Place where famous Jerry’s Newsstand was and tweet my whereabouts and hand out free papers…and I did just that. This was a momentous occasion that I could not sleep on.

THANKS TO EVERYONE who came out for their free paper and to bask in my glorious geek moment that I will never forget!!!
