true story: quinn coleman (aka mr. DCtoBC that just lost all motivation to do anything DCtoBC related…call him out when you see him.) saw kenny burns riding around the city shining, in a chariot (i kid you not. a carriage with a horse pulling it) around the monument area, the day before inauguration. LOL. watch this joint, it’s trill.

funkadelic freestyles and start of the line present the DC twitter takeover, from 8-10 today. tune in, i have a feeling jay promo is gonna go pretty damn hard trying to fry me via Twitter…it’ll be a great time. featuring DC recording artist tabi bonney, wale’s manager dan weisman, and j.ben.ok and dylan of funkadelic freestyles and start of the line, respectively. go to GW radio to listen, i’ll most likely be calling in to pester them. you won’t want to miss that. i don’t think.

time to support the area. i’m back posting local artists. let’s get it. NandoMcFlyy has been on grind mode for a while. well, he’s back, and he’s flowing on a tribe called quest’s “butter”. that’s my favorite ATCQ track, so you already know i had to throw nando’s version up. short, but sweet. enjoy.

my man adrian hooked me up with vimby’s crucial footage of a definite highlight from over inauguration weekend, the stussy x commonwealth inaugural bash. check it below.

everybody came out. wale was in there posted like a lamp, 9th wonder was spinning classics on the 1′s and 2′s, bun b was leaning a bit, and yelling out every word of every track 9th threw on the turntables (in a much higher-pitched voice than i would have expected. i mean, i’m not saying he had a high-pitched voice. but go listen to those tracks, his voice is booming. in person, it doesn’t really sound like that. just a mere observation. i know there are some co-signers out here on that statement!) i arrived as david banner was being escorted into the store from his luxurious whipsicle, and saw the big ass crowd that a party with this type of hype attracts. i was taken aback, but  luckily i caught j.ben.ok outside, and him and jay promo got me in that joint with the quickness. shout out to those two, otherwise i’d still be out in the cold.

once i got in there, it was glorious. i got a chance to chop it up with everybody. dizzy was in there, taking flicks like the local celebrity he is. X.O. and benji were in there having a great time. i finally met oddisee, the man who i used to harrass to help me make beats back two years ago. really cool guy, and my favorite producer out of the DMV by far. he can rap too, look out for some of his new stuff on here soon! oh, and  i had to school VJ on his twitter game, because it was limbo pole low. yikes. met a bunch of cool people, and saw some of the sexiest ladies i’ve ever seen in the area. i always feel like they only come out on nights like that, because i can’t ever find them otherwise. somebody tell them to holler at me, man. you already know i’m a shy guy.

highlight of the night? my man lucas hooked me up with the collector’s tees. you know i’m frugal, but i had to let people know i was around for the day history was made. 1.20.09, aka “yes we did day” in my book.

shout out to everybody who came out, and to stussy and commonwealth, for putting on something special, and adrian and the others involved in the coordination. that whole DMV scene, if i can call it that without sounding lame, is a great community. happy i’m a part of it.
