"It's Okay For Grown Men To Cry..." -Especially When S#@t Is THIS Funny! Watch...

Now I've seen some funny stuff in my time but these cast of characters (all attendees of Georgia State U) are ready to take comedy skits to another level! The other day my boy Carlito put me on to these dudes called Dormtainment(.com) that are perfecting their style of group skit comedy and have decided to share it with the world via YouTube. I was gonna post for you guys a hilarious vid once a month but decided "Nah! This s#*t here's MAD funny man! I gotta share!" So here's four of the joints that I openly wept while watching. ENJOY! LMMFAO

"He States Black Is Black..."-Worth a Thousand Words By Russell Fredrick

When ever in your lifetime would you get the opportunity to say you not only SAW the next upcoming Gordon Parks, but you helped fund his FIRST EVER solo photo exhibition? Huh? Will if you help make a small donation towards my long time good friend & photography inspiration Russell Fredrick, you'll be doing JUST that! From Bed-Stuy to Katrina and back, this man has single-handedly documented through pictures, both the beauty and the burden our African-American culture bears. And he does so with such a reserved style that you can EASILY see he's photos accompanying words by some great poet. Real rap! So help in some small or even big way set this man's goal in motion to achieving a chance of his (and your) lifetime, sharing his artist vision with the rest of the WORLD!

"We Did It For Love!" -A Party In Ode To Everyone's Favorite Borough

I don't have to tell you how HARD it is to find a GOOD "urban" party in Brooklyn that's not...well not...thugged the f#@k out to be honest! But we're not into complaining we're in the problem solving business, and business is a BOOMIN'! Especially now that new spots such as Ultraviolet have arriving on the scene. And just in the nick of time, cause after that there stadium goes up, sports bar lounges will dominate our beloved county of King's. Anyways , enough bitchin'!

"Pigskin & Patron!" - Sunday (Feb. 6th) Gets No Uber Than This! My Uber Super Sunday Returns..,

Okay, let's be honest. the Superbowl has become an unofficial holiday every year in February. Folks tend to think of it as "the New Year's Eve of sports!" And rightfully so, cause even if you're not a fan of any of the teams attending, or even the sport! You are more than likely to gather with a group of friends to watch it along with the rest of the WORLD! I say all this to announce that WE'RE HAVING A HUGE SUPERBOWL PARTY! Last year surprisingly even to us, the Block Association along w/ Detailed Events NYC had over 250+ ppl. attend our very first "My Uber Sunday Superbowl Party!" It's now safe to say it was a HUGE success! But this year we're looking to make this one even not just bigger & better, but BOLDER! Please join us Superbowl Sunday to help make this more "UBER" than the last! It's by far Brooklyn's LARGEST gathering to watch the BIGGEST game...Hands down!

"The Force Is Strong With This One!" -Luke's Place Is Brooklyn At It's Best

So right after the Yazarah St. James show I attended at BAM, how convenient was it that Ade (1/3 owner of En restaurant) was having a lil' get together for his b'day at the redesigned space (same location) damn near four blocks away! Now renamed Luke's Place, he was more than proud to show off the renewed space that took only TWO WEEKS(!) to revision. Luke's compared to the former En, is much wider, sleek, and if possible SEXIER then before. which is a GREAT addition to the ever growing Brooklyn night life scene. DJ London was n deck plying tunes to warm up the birthday boys attendees coming in from the frigid cold weather. FYI* there's no need to worry, the food is still a big draw to coming here like before. I think "VERY impress I am!" is what I'm sure Yoda would say about Luke ('s Place). Here's some footage pictures.

"Wham BAM Thank You Jam! -Yazarah Concert Live At BAM Cafe'

Talk about irony man! Peep it, last Sat. after 'Frei (the Ahficionados) and I had a video editing session trying to get this "Hello Brooklyn!" trailer out on time for this Saturday's (Jan.29th) return to Ultraviolet. We both decided afterwards to run through and check out that BAM Cafe' free concert (featuring Yazarah St. James) I was hearing about, that Hard Hittin' Harry was DJaying for. Not but ten minutes inside, up comes a young lady to me (Anita Bryant, whom I DIDN'T recognize at the time) asking if it was possible to take pictures of the event for her. In my mind I was like "Huh? I JUST got this thing! You asking the WRONG dude!" but keep a poker face and agreed anyhow. Once she gave me the "Back up can't you see I'm working" all-access press pass, It was TOO late to turn back then. So long story short, here's the pictures I captured for them. Hope that they meet your approval, I did the best that I know.
