Probably the most acclaimed Hip-Hop radio partnership during the 90s, the legendary team of Stretch Boogie and Kool Bob Love, along with Lord Sear, rejoined with friends and family for a special One-Night Only live broadcast. I've spoken before about NYC radio during those times and how much it influenced the music person I am today. Stretch and Bob were a HUGE part of my foundation in this music thing. Hearing them again last night (it's really the same day and have yet to sleep) recharged my batteries and made me remember what it is [...]

Last month, I had the pleasure of performing as a DJ in Toronto, CA for the first time.  It was a great opportunity to reconnect with some friends I had made when last I was there with Critically Acclaimed and The Low Budget Crew.  Upon my arrival to the venue with DJ Mensa, I noticed a larger than life character rocking a crispy Critically Acclaimed Tee from 2004... It was the homie Big Jacks! The weekend came and went and was super fun.  As we pulled up to the airport, Mensa handed me Jacks' Mixtape and stated "He [...]
