Oh no! 215hiphop is reporting that Colby is no longer going to be Program Director or on the air at 100.3 The Beat. Colby has always been one of my favorite Philly radio DJ’s. He’d always have great stories about ‘back-in-the-day’ topics and he seemed to genuinely love hip-hop.
In his absence, look forward to […]

I don’t know what the hell has been wrong with me lately. I’ve been soooooo damn tired. This weekend I just want to sleep but I know that I won’t be able to…there’s too many things to do.

Too much is never enough. It’s going to be close to 100 degrees outside this weekend and there’s literally too many things going on. I love it…

Freeway, Beanie Sigel, Peedi Crakk - January 4, 2008 - North Philly
June 3rd, 2008 · No Comments
Way way back when it was a cold winter, the White Ts White Belts party (with DJ’s Emynd and Bo Bliz - who we talked about last week) played host to a totally D.I.Y. live performance by Philadelphia’s own Freeway. Patrons at the Arts Garage (R.I.P.?) were treated to a bunch of Freeway songs when, […]

Oh man. Things have been so hectic around here. Me and Hans got all dramatical for a minute just added to the stress. I can’t wait to just take a few hours to depressurize and chillax. That said, there’s a million things to do this weekend. Get out there…

Emynd and Bo Bliz - Philly Cats Keeping It Real
May 23rd, 2008 · 1 Comment
One of the things I love about Philadelphia so much is that most of the time hype doesn’t matter here. Image and hype bullshit doesn’t necessarily work here - you have to rock shit to get people to respect you. And, Philly is a crabs-in-a-barrel kind of town - jealously runs rampant and haters are […]

Philadelphia Gets Live on Saturday Night
May 15th, 2008 · No Comments
Sometimes it’s impossible to coordinate things correctly. I’ve got some family stuff that I need to attend to and McKee is on tour with the loveable Limey skinhead rogues Hard Skin. That means that England Belongs To Twee is not happening this month. However, I am leaving you all in the able and capable hands […]

April 30th, 2008 · 1 Comment
Philly was well represented on television on late on Monday night. Santo Gold (Real name Santi White, from Philadelphia) performed live on Late Night with Conan O’Brien and The Roots performed on The Late Show with David Letterman. Pretty cool, huh?

There’s a lot going on and the weather is properly spring-like. Too bad I’ll be in Washington D.C. Anyway, on to the fun stuff…

I think that I love springtime more than any other time of the year. It’s not cold anymore but it’s not so hot that you want to die. This is probably going to be the first weekend where the weather is warm and the sky is sunny. Get out there and shake those winter blues […]

Your humble narrator was there - having a good time, DJing, mingling with kids who will one day be Supervisors and Bosses to us all.
I might have been a little faded (OK, I was pretty hammered and, seriously people, why didn’t anyone tell me that Dave P. got new really cool glasses? I didn’t even […]

Two Philly Bands Score High Praise Over At Pitchfork.com
April 8th, 2008 · 1 Comment
I’ve heard some people complain that the indie tastemaker site Pitchfork.com has no love for bands from the City of Brotherly Love. I don’t know how true that is but today is a decent day for the Philly indie scene to shine in front of a larger audience. Not one but two bands from the […]

Rap Week!
April 1st, 2008 · No Comments
Forget Rap O’Clock, dun - it’s rap week…an entire week dedicated to rips of old hip-hop tunes over at at the ever excellent dollarbinjams blog. Why? Um, because the Philadelphyinz are getting you hype for their Sunday 4/6 Rap Bar Mitzvah at Silk City. Which will be awesome - duh.

So like yeah…more snow forcast for tonight. Friday night is jam packed with action. Things taper off slightly after that. If you were feeling really adventurous, you could book your flight now and fly to Brussels to see Bardo Pond and Clockcleaner (among others) play the Kraak Festival. If intercontinental flight isn’t your idea of a […]
