I interviewed Junestar months ago for a post, he was one of those people who I heard about ever since starting this blog. He is crazy talented, stylish, friendly and a huge supporter of the art scene in Jersey City. While I was interviewing him he talked about his new band “June and the Pushas” […]
Hero Gawd
Months ago, I interviewed local rap group, The Designer Boyz at their studio, and before sitting down to talk they had me listen to rapper/producer Hero’s new single “Mama Rich” before it dropped. After listening to it , I told them “This song is going to be a hit”…. It had all the components of […]
Hideaway!
Happy Wednesday friends. It’s been a while since my last dance video post and since we are all getting in shape for the summer I wanted to share one of my favorite summer jams. It’s not very “hip hoppy” but it’s a really fun choreography, inspired by the actual Kesza “Hideaway” video. Hope you enjoy! […]
5thMindset
Fabian, aka 5thMindset is an extremely talented local photographer, his Instagram feed is one of my favorites. He shoots everything from fashion, landscape, sexy models and my favorite are his artistic shots. His photos are raw and he really captures that moment in time. I picked him up from his apartment in the Greenville area […]
Jay Hype
In early October word got out that THE Kanye West showed up at the Wolf Juice open mic at The Dopeness to hear his niece Jay Hype perform. I remember sitting on my couch that night debating whether or not to go, and then saw what went down on social media. Everyone (including myself) were […]
Booty!
Happy Wednesday Friends! It’s been a while since I posted a hip hop video so here is my latest, Jennifer Lopez and Iggy Azalea “Booty”. To be honest, it’s not my favorite song in the world, but it’s super fun to dance to. It’s all about the booty! and how fitting that this is my […]
DJ Robcast
I met DJ Robcast at the “I AM Inspired” panel I was a part of at Art House. He is best friends with Hayoner, stylish peep, entrepreneur and curator at the Sneaker Room on Central Ave. DJ Robcast is one stylish dude, I feel weird comparing him to a celebrity since he clearly has his […]
Don Prynce
Shot by Greg Pallante I heard about Don Prynce about a year ago around the Jersey City hip hop scene and through social media… Before I took notice of his music, I took notice of his style. Don Prynce is one fashionable dude, he dresses to the nines in Panama Hats, Bow Ties and fitted […]
Wolf Juice Open Mic
Last night I went to check out the Wolf Juice Open Mic at The Dopeness, this was my third open mic. My first time was when I first started blogging and I left early because I was just too shy to be at an event on my own. Anyway, the second time I went, I […]
Petey Ugly x Kraze Ugly
I heard about Petey Ugly x Kraze Ugly a few months ago through the grapevine, and the idea of a hip hop duo in Jersey City intrigued me…I did some internet stalking and listened to their music. Petey and Kraze are so talented, they rap about real life, which is relatable in comparison to some […]
Beats by Onhel
Since I started this blogging journey, I’ve interviewed many artists, especially in the hip hop genre. I do love all types of music and planning to explore a wider range of styles going forward, but hip hop music will always be what I connect to the most. The music industry in general is very intriguing […]
We Found Love!
Happy Wednesday friends! I’ve been feeling a little tired and sluggish these days, but so excited the weather is getting better. That is why I am bringing back this old Rihanna summer track “We Found Love”. The beat is very “dancy” so I love to start the class with it. We are wearing Faded Royalty […]
ChicpeaTV Episode 3
Here it is, Episode 3! The first two were centered around food and hot chicks, this time we wanted to do something a little different. Nizz Sentine and Vincent The Owl are rappers and best friends, and they are hilarious! They are definitely the funniest guys I’ve ever interviewed. I knew that doing an episode with them […]
Ernie Paniccioli “The Photographer”
The first Hip hop album I ever purchased was The Notorious B.I.G’s “Ready to Die”. That is when I fell in love with Hip Hop music and the culture… so much so it became a huge part of my life; I started breakdancing, I bought turntables and records and also DJ’ed for a while…. I have […]
Martin Strange
In the summer I interviewed local rapper Vinny (The Owl, formerly known as Verbal Phantom) and as part of the interview we decided to walk over to an alleyway by Hamilton Park to shoot a video of him free styling… out of nowhere an entourage of people show up; rap group Piss MOBB and “content creator” Martin Strange. […]
Designer Boyz
A few months ago, I heard about Designer Boyz…. I checked out a few of their YouTube videos and for a split second thought I was listening to an old Cash Money Millionaire record. I couldn’t believe they were from Jersey City. Generally speaking, there aren’t that many Hip Hop groups around, and to see […]
Bojangles!
Happy Hump day y’all. Another Wednesday means another Hip Hop Dance video! This one is a throwback jam. I am not the biggest fan of Pitbull but some of his beats just make you want to dance, like this one… Speaking of Hip Hop. This Sat night (Jan 31rst) I am hosting a “Raw Dinner” […]
Kid Kold
A few weeks ago, after working with and interviewing 17 years young prodigy/photographer Andy-Mac (which blew up my website btw) I realized that I wanted to interview more young talents, people who have a successful future ahead of them… I wanted to be there and meet them before anyone else and to follow their journey… […]
“Going up on a Tuesday”
“Going up on a Tuesday”…. Since that song came out, I’ve been dying to say it and actually mean it. A few weeks ago while visiting Faded Royalty; “Stylish peep”, DJ Alaska invited me to their first live show event in Manhattan, “Screw York” at Arlene’s Grocery in the LES. Normally I don’t cover events outside […]
Twerk it!
Happy Wednesday friends! It’s a New Year, which means everyone is back to the gym, eating healthy and getting life back on track. I am all about doing what’s good for the soul! For me, dancing is my meditation. When I teach my hip hop class once a week, I shut my brain and just […]
