Tuesdays With Lazerbeak

March 09, 2010

Just got back from a big long weekend in the Chi attending my Grandpa’s service.  My extended family is spread out pretty far and wide across the country, so it was great to be able to see so many wonderful people and catch up over the weekend, all while celebrating the life of the one and only Guts Mader.  My cousins are awesome.  It was a wonderful service too.  I got in late last night so I didn’t really have a chance to prepare anything for the blogosphere.  I am making a lot more progress with this Lazerbeak solo album though, so maybe I’ll just catch you up on all of that for the time being…..  

Tuesdays With Lazerbeak

March 02, 2010

Hey, welcome back.  March is finally here and it’s starting to feel like winter is slowly dying off (in an awesome Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe type of way).   I couldn’t be more thrilled.  We actually grilled on Sunday for the first time this year and watched the USA/Canada gold medal hockey game.  I ate my face off, and watching hockey actually ended up ruling.  The game was super close and even went to sudden death.  Is it possible that hockey is in fact not lame?  I’ll keep you posted …

Albums I purchased more than 3 times

February 24, 2010

I was unpacking some of my stuff earlier from the move (yes I know its been over 3 months since I moved but I’m busy procrastinating) and I found some records I had, albums that I have purchased more than 3 copies of because I could not stand life without them.  They were either lost or stolen but certainly replaced. I love all of these albums although you may think my taste is a little questionable with a couple of these,  but I love them regardless. Some of them I didn’t know that I had done that with until I found all 3 copies in my cd piles, like this one:

Hey there.  Been in the studio for about the last week or so wrapping up all the tracking for this new Sims full length.  We’ve been working on this project together for the last couple years, and I’m thrilled to say that it is super close to nearing completion.  Not to toot my own horn or anything, but it is quite frankly an absolute monster.  So excited about this one, definitely each of our best work to date.  Between that …

20 MIN MIX #4

February 22, 2010

Ahhhh yes, here is the 4th installment of the 20 min mix.

This one takes us back to the early 90’s with new jack swing.

What a wonderful time, it wasn’t really R+B, it really wasn’t Rap,

but something in between, and all together awesome. It reminds

me of very bright colored suits, and questionable dance moves.

So let’s get it crackin’ and I’ll hit you with another one real soon.

3 weeks…

February 18, 2010

I just got back from 3 amazing weeks of being on the road. Well, away from home at least.

The first week I was gone I was in Aspen Colorado. I DJ a party for the X-games out there, and it was as much if not more fun than last time. I got to stay in a baller ass hotel room for 6 days, and live like a king.

Then, I flew home for just around …

First off, I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone that came out to the Rhymesayers Haiti Benefit show last Tuesday.  In total there was over $30,000 raised!!!  SO proud to see our city and scene stand up together and contribute like that.   It was a beautiful evening.  Also, Saturday’s show at Sauce was nutz.  Another sell out, and a wonderful time had by all.  Maybe I just haven’t been going to as many shows lately, but that …
