Late Night Listening: Im Saying (Live) - July 28th, 2010

I went out to support the good homie Real8 at the Leimert Park Art Walk this weekend.  Here he is performing Im Saying at Kaos Network. If you are in Los Angeles at the end of August, make sure you come out to the Leimert Park Art Walk to catch a show (or two!)

Support Good Music: Team Muhsinah - July 1st, 2010

There is music and then there is music.  I discovered the music that Muhsinah makes on a late night webbing stint early 2009. I had just re-discovered 21st Century Maroon Colony and somehow ended up on her myspace.  I couldn’t get on the mailing list fast enough.

Time flew and now Muhsinah is making more music and a short film.  This is epic y’all.  “Dear _____ ,” – The Debut Studio Album + Independent Short Film By Muhsinah is on Kickstarter now and Team Muhsinah needs to raise $31,000 to fund the project.  Please support this work in anyway you can.

If you have at anytime lamented the state of music or even the absence of Lauryn Hill, this is your moment to do something about it by putting your money into action.

Afrolicious is pledging. Ann D! is pledging. Whatchu gonna do?

Los Angeles! Freedom Friday Number Four - June 30th, 2010

If you haven’t been to Freedom Friday yet, you need to come out and start your weekend off proper.  Since we started at the end of May, we’ve had poets, musicians, rappers and filmmakers share their hearts and passions with us on the mic.  USC’s South Los Angeles Report even came out and wrote a nice feature about the space.

It’s Wednesday, so you have some time to adjust your plans a bit.  Freedom Friday is this Friday July 2, 2010 at the Mercado La Paloma in downtown Los Angeles.

(PS: Our feature this week is Poet John Paul.  Check out his video!)
