"I'll House You! You In My Hood Now!" - #One More Chance Video Revisited...Real B.I.G!

Lord knows I been (and thrown) a zillion plus parties in my lifetime. So for me to be excited about any party...let alone a HOUSE party it has to be pretty MAJOR! And I'm happy to say this party was just that case! I was talking about us doing one for the longest but the timing never panned out. However on Saturday April 9th all the right key ingredients came together to make this one of the most memorable house parties held in Brooklyn...EVER! First off it was (singer/good friend) Malene Younglao's b'day, plus DJ Ben-Ha-Meen was toasting his new residency in Brooklyn, then add on top of that the Block Association & Alador & Smith two of the biggest & best social event planning teams from Brooklyn co-signing it. Beside the fact that the weather was acting right that night. Yep...a PERFECT STORM! I live on the very next block from Alador & Smith Manor (where it was held) so I took a nap that night thinking "Eh, it'll start late so I'll stroll around like say 11-11:30ish to beat the rush." BOY did I sleep! Got there 11:30 to be welcomed by a full house! Front to back, main floor to bottom! Lucky me, I remembered to bring my new BF (Canon T2I) with me just in case folks don't believe what we get so hyped about. Funny enough this was one: SUPPOSE to be a small lil' comfortable get together with the peeps to celebrate M. Younglao's b'day. You know "hush hush" style. And secondly this was thrown together the SAME DAY in a matter of a few hours SON!!!! I say this to help you understand just why I was SO not expecting it to be so...so... "ZOOISH" at 11 freaking 30 at night! Anyway here's the footage capture of the "Big Foot" of house parties. We're dedicating this one to the best that ever did it (a house party) on film. B.I.G




BTW; Here's that unforgettable text that went out that makes me laugh to this day!

"My Team, My Dream" -Meet The Faces Of The New Brooklyn Cool, The Block Rocks

"Allow me to re-introduce myself..." -Jay-Z

Sometime last year around now I had a vision of uniting the different social sets of Brooklyn to create a movement never seen in the borough before. And to accomplice that, it took getting together the personalities that represent the various dynamic circles. You have "Ghetto fab Brooklyn", "Hipster Brooklyn", "Afro-centric Brooklyn", & "Bougie (Bourgeois) BK", all living in the SAME neighborhoods now! We party to the SAME music, but only in different environments. All that has somewhat changed now. The Block Association is the movement to help make folks proud to be from Brooklyn AGAIN! But this time it's NOT from a celebrity aspect why, it's from it's people...YOU! This weekend beginning with the monumental turnout for the Target's 1st Saturday event at the Brooklyn Museum and then the Block Anniversary party in DUMBO. Both made me feel all that we've been working towards is coming sooner then we thought...And this is just in ONE YEAR! I grew up down the block from the Brooklyn staple (the Brooklyn Museum), so it was a bit of a "homecoming" for me, then to see a sea of 3,500-4,000 plus folks of all nationalities singing TOGETHER hands raised high, gave ME a high! Beautiful Brooklyn, we LOVE you! THANKS for loving us back! Now meet the players...

"Flashing Lights" -Paparazzi Pics (Pt.202)

YES! I KNOW! Before you start going off on me like "Where the f**k have YOU been?" or "Damn homie, you ain't post ALL week!" Chill and relax for a second. It was ALOT going on in the past few days, and capturing it all takes some time people! Especially when you're still living life (and working too btw). But never the less I GOT YOU! Here's some pics I took of two b'day festivities, one at the Gates (for Alador & Smith's Lingo on Mondays...beastly!) and the other on Friday night at Canal Room (for Melo, and Young J's double up "Opulence" shindig). As you can clearly see, It was packed at both, full of well wishers coming to stop by to say "Happy B'day!" to them. But from the vibe you'd think EVERYONE was celebrating SOMETHING those nights! Now take a long hard look at what you were missing!
