I’ll keep it short and sweet today.  I’m not at my computer nearly enough this summer which is why my updates have been a bit irregular.  Between Michael Jackson’s Memorial, Steve McNair’s death, and the recent murder at the Piazza apartments in Northern Liberties, there have been a bunch of dark news topics to comment on.  Instead, I’ll focus on what good things are happening.  I have to extend a Happy Birthday shout out to my man Nova from Soul Bounce who celebrated recently. Also, one love to all the familar faces who have been making it out to The Walnut Room every week now that I’m back.  It feels like I never left.  See y’all out tomorrow for another dose.

Also, this Tuesday, come check out ya boy at Silk City for the Red Bull Music Academy after party with Tanya Morgan, Phonte from Little Brother, and Che Grand.  Dope hip-hop still lives. Make sure you get your tickets here.

Also, while we celebrate the life and legacy of Michael Jackson, don’t sleep on DJ Lil’ Dave’s MJ Mixtape available for free download at www.illvibe.net.

We never let you down.

Well in my attempt to earn the title for the hardest working DJ in Philadelphia, I somehow neglected to post pics up from many of the events I worked at.  Here are a few, starting with more images from my birthday party a couple of months ago in New York and ending with a couple pics from Welcome America this past weekend at Penn’s Landing.  I hope you enjoy.  To anyone who went down to Ubiq expecting to attend the Ma Dukes Gallery Wrap Up Event with me and Jay-Ski, I apologize but the date I was booked for was no longer the date.  I actually came back into town just in time for the party and found out it wasn’t happening at the last minute.  I couldn’t communicate that with any of you in time so I’m sorry if it inconvenienced anyone.

Tomorrow, I’ll be rocking over at Zee Bar and Saturday at The Walnut Room for my usual foolishness.  Hope to see many of y’all out.  Also, I just heard VIBE Magazine is a wrap?? Well I guess everyone’s feeling the pinch right now. Especially in music and in music publishing. I haven’t bought a copy in a while but it’s absence is further proof that times are rapidly changing.  Out with the old and in with the new…
