party pics: 1/23 OPEN at SANTOS with Q TIP, ME and RICH MEDINA!

although, i was feeling better that day…i shouldn’t have gone out. SANTOS was packed more than normal. wasn’t sure if it was because the weather had warmed up a bit or maybe everyone heard that JAY-Z and DIDDY were in the building. must be the latter, because there was a sea of motionless onlookers who stared obsessively at the DJ booth. didn’t snap too many pictures because i took refuge in a stairwell. happy birthday to DJ SURE SHOT who came out with miss RADIO ROSE!

Q TIP release / ELECTION party 11/4…

a few weeks ago, Q TIP asked me to help with his release party (RENAISSANCE, go cop that) and Election Party. it played out perfectly…music by Q TIP and MARK RONSON and DJ SOUL, performance by KID CUDI, live streaming video from CNN.com, Macs donated by Apple with RSS feeds, catering, fresh popped popcorn and balloons (red, black and green). thanks to everyone who came out and supported! even PUFF came through to show some love. the night was LEGENDARY!!! Congrats to Kamaal on his achievements and contributions to the wonderful world of music!!! * Photos by MEL D. COLE villageslum.com *
