"Give Me A Place To Stand, And
I Will Move Brooklyn"
-RTBBK '09

What exact IS Rock the Block BK? Only the fastest growing one day urban arts festival in Brooklyn, showcasing the boroughs most talented artist. Last year August, it was held at THREE different locations in one day, Frank White (live performances, guest DJs, "B.I.G. Pimpin' " -the Biggie and Jay-Z tribute, plus food & drinks sold), Yume (spoken word, live painting, chicken & waffle brunch, the after party w/a private performance by Ernie Gaines!) and lastly Not Just Vintage/Bush Baby (sidewalk fashion show, and vendors). You bought one pass ($20), and got access to all three locales...DOPE!
This year, man we've grown! This time around we've relocated it to DUMBO, secured a huge loft for the live performances (artist tba) and the "B.I.G. Pimpin' " event, plus a live painting/fashion show! A whole block for vendors, with Rebar as the venue resevered for smaller acts and spoken word. With a larger after party that'll go till 4am! So are you down? BTW we're still looking for talent (artist, singers, poets, photogs, intern help, models, etc.) so just check us theMreport@gmail.com Let's make memories together.

"Flashing Lights" -Paparazzi Pics (Pt.129)

I obviously seems like the recession is actually WORKING for some folks out there! Cause "Recessionista" just had it's THIRD one(!) last Sunday. And to me this was the best one yet. Better choices, more selections, bigger turn out, just as simple as that. Kudos to Not Just Vintage, Kai of 718Bodega, and especially Miss lady Chay Jones for organizing such a nice event, that you could even bring ya mama to. Just ask Kai, that's just what she did! Dope!

"Flashing Lights" -Paparazzi Pics (Pt.126)

THANK YOU! I just had to say that first and foremost, before I even started to write something to this. How ironic is it that my 700th posting would be of the Minority Report's Anniversary (and Butch Diva Tiff's B'day) party? Now I'm not gonna say too much I'll just let the flicks speak for me this time. Honestly, it was the BEST party I've attended AND thrown in a while, hands down! Simply cause folks came out to do just that...PARTY! Thank YOU again! See us on the 27th ( of Feb.)
