I never told anyone this
At the 2 chainz concert for homecoming he yelled “ where my sexy ladies at”
Me lit standing right near the stage not knowing what’s going on puts my hand up
He then says “sit yo gay ass down”
I went home and didn’t play his music for weeks
For the record 2 chainz is funny as shit and he got me thru college 😂
Tru Religion is one the best mixtapes ever
But these concert stories are hilarious
They tried to price people out, market to a high clientele, and play a certain type of music in Atlanta and it backfired. Tried multiple times to do an event here and it 15k plus to rent and can only play house/eclectic music smh
My bro left his alpha phi alpha hoodie in Cancun and told me grab it for him.I get to the airport and it’s freezing.
So I put it on
2 OGs walk up to me saying wassup frat and I replied “ice”
Wore that hoodie for 3 days straight 😂
My grandma bday is today and she turns 90.
I asked since I can’t see her person what does she want me to door dash her
She says “no I’m good just cash app me” I ask how much and she says “two zeros behind my age”.
🤣

I want know why isn’t Chicago a popular domestic summer destination like miami/nyc/La etc
Is it because of the crime?
Lack of events ?
I genuinely want to know c
Howard has the events leading up to tailgate on lock. But the actual tailgate! you can not been to both and look me in the eyes and say Howard’s is better. I DARE YOU
As a neutral party (Hampton) in the Howard HC vs AUC HC debate, I would have to say even though Howard has all the hype. AUC has the better HC. Ima talk about it a lil more on the podcast too
As a person who went to an HBCU with a large network around the world Chicago is rarely brought up as a place to visit when it comes to trips. I’m from Chicago and summers there are top tier. Just wanted to what deters ppl from choosing Chicago.

It’s Memorial Day weekend. Is “Pound town” the strongest candidate for “Song of the Summer?” in terms of Hip Hop/R&B? If not, what is?
Doechii “What it is?”
IDK “Pinot noir?”
Blxst “Ghetto Cinderella?”
Don Toliver “Luckily I’m having?”
Will it be an Afrobeats song?
I successfully created an event brand The Jumpoff Series in Atlanta back in 2019. We came onto a black Hollywood scene that desperately needed a makeover. People were bored of clubs. It was no dancing, no vibes. Just bottles, boring music and stare down competitions. 🥱
Atlanta is not a DJ friendly city. The current infrastructure is not made for a DJ to get by just on DJing. Unless you doing 5-7 nights your going to have to get another income
The Councilman Abe Hyde returns to the streets of Atlanta and taps into the booming industry of hip-hop. He learns what it takes to get in booth and produce magic.
I’ve been in new York for the past 6 days and it’s night and day with Atlanta.
My NYC friends are cautious and paranoid about seeing people and gatherings and my ATL peeps like it’s hella moves tonight on a Tuesday
I was told by someone I admire this weekend that I have the most potential but if i have a little discipline i would be unstoppable.
Been locked in since
I know crime is not as bad as the media portrays. I think with the emergence of boat week it will help ppl see Chicago differently. I’m speaking towards black people not white
Drake could do a concert with Canada artists NAV, Kardinal Offishall,Party plus local acts. Grab all of Memphis (gotti, glo, yo,boogie, key, finesse, three 6,8ball etc) and dance hall artists (Sean Paul, popcaan, Beenie man etc)
Now it’s game on
Throwing a homecoming party at a school you did not attend especially at a HBCU is mad disrespectful to the organizers who went there. I’m all for getting your money but you can sit out one weekend.
