“The Culture”
Months ago, local artist King TJAY asked if I would be part of his event and if I would host it. To be honest, I’ve thrown many events and I NEVER get on the mic. I’ve done it once at an outdoor art thing, but never at a big party with performances. I’m outgoing and definitely not […]

The Hip Hop Lab
Rosesarereal’s hip hop lab at TCMG studios this Saturday was a reincarnation of 80’s hip hop culture with a modern day 808 twist. It reminded me of the days when acts like Fab5Freddy, Goldie, and Madonna would once roam the Lower East Side of NYC, painting the streets with bravado, class, and eccentricity. The vibrant […]

The Making of ChicpeaHQ
I started ChicpeaJC, a blog about Jersey City, 2.5 years ago. I needed a creative outlet while working in the corporate world.

A Night to Remember: A NYE Event in Jersey City
It’s been about 4 years since I actually celebrated New Year’s Eve. To be honest, I always thought this night was highly overrated. I particularly did not enjoy getting stuck in Manhattan with all the crowds and the anxiety of finding my way home. I sort of made it a point to miss the stroke […]
