"Get Into The Party!" -When I Fly, YOU Fly, We Fly TOGETHER!

Hey kids, remember about two years back when the Block Association took over Target's First Saturday event at the Bklyn Museum of Art's backyard with a WICKED 80's music tribute that had Twitter on fire for three days straight?!? It was THEE biggest turnout for a 1st Saturday EVER! No bull$#it! This is coming from the horse's (well the program director's) mouth, that we made that happen thanks to heavy heavy promotion we did AND the fact of it being the July 4th weekend did play a major part too (LOL). Anyways I'm pleased to say that  co-founder of the soon to be legendary Block Boys, Frei Speech will be taking over the museum once AGAIN! This time with our favorite female DJ Jasmine Solano will be in the building helping destroy the dance floor with him! So you KNOW where this is going right?!? YES the Block WILL be in invading your favorite people watching, once a month, summer time high event Target's First Saturday THIS SATURDAY!

Wow, what an AMAZING year this guy has had so far! An it's ONLY June folks! The man I'm speaking of is none other than motherf**kin' DJ Trauma of the Block Association, Soundproof Int. Alador & Smith, AND the High Flyers Club! Yeah he's part of all those cliques AND he's working to become to be the OFFICIAL DJ of Hennessy & the Brooklyn Nets (fingers crossed)! Yep ya heard right, he's claiming that title and Barclay's not even open yet...DJ Trauma is 'bout to have stadium status! LOL! Anyways I'm sharing all this to say MONDAY JUNE 4th we're getting together and inviting you to toast our brother and great friend on his actual b'day PRIM & PROPER dinner style. Here's to hoping you can make it...

"On Another Note..." - h e a V y

Awhile back when working for the "Circus," I had received a CD full of songs from this funky dressed couple that use to frequently visit the store. Now I get CD's on the regular from hopeful, aspiring musicians looking to build their fan base all the time, and not even half are good. So when I gave a listen to the duo's music I was surprised that not only was it good...it was "heaVy!" I had the CD on repeat so much, that I knew the lyrics by the next day. To best describe it would be, very melodic, up-tempo, spunky funky, retro-futuristic pop. Or simply put "Sassy Spunk Funk."
I had a whole 'nother level of respect for these guys, It was just that DOPE. Fast forward four months later, while promoting for a night in a lounge in the city (Mannahatta), I invite them to perform songs off their newest release "Jazz Money$$" (mind you, having never seen their show.) WHAM! I got mind-blown again, by not only the RSVP's leading up to the show, but by the SHOW itself . KILLER set. To my friends, you would've sworn I shared a winning lottery ticket with them. Back pats and high-fives all night. So my friend I say to you, make it your business to purchase a CD whenever the opportunity presents itself. Better yet run see them live* if you can.
It's heavy, but worth carrying the load.

The Bluest Note" is an honest portrait of a famous singer in the twilight of his career trying to hold on to what he once had. When he loses his voice, Tony Mann (Len Xiang) is forced to choose between pursuing his passion at all costs or accepting his new reality.
The film features moving performances by Len Xiang, Stacey Lewis, and Jaynelle Clarke. Directed and produced by Marques Green, written by Oliver Webb, and produced by Laila Petrone, “The Bluest Note” debuted at the Martha’s Vineyard African American Film Festival in August. Tambay Obeson of Indiewire’s Shadow and Act says, "The mournful tale ... is supported by strong acting from its cast, and high production values, including some lovely, evocative cinematography, and it places both filmmaker and writer squarely in our sights as talents to watch for”.  The trailer and details on the cast and crew are available at quefilms.com/thebluestnote/

"On Another Note"- Little Dragon

There's is absolutely NOTHING more thrilling to me other than discovering a new love than discovering new music! Mentally and physically, my body is tune like a short wave antenna to hone in on GOOD music. It's like fallin' in love and your heart starts to race, simply from the sound of that persons voice. The reason I say this is cause, last Sunday, after the Brooklyn Flea, a friend of mine was playing a CD she "mixed" in the car on our way to SEA. One tune had struck me HARD, so of course as any good blogger would do, I did the research. Janelle Monae...DOPE, heaVy...LOVE you guys! But Little Dragon is that other NEW ish! Hailing from all places, Sweden (?) With a lead singer who's of all things, Japanese and White (!), their "Soul" is without question Black. As George Lucas made a point of showing us that the "Force" is not monopolized by humans only, "Soul" is not by one race, or country for that matter. Ear check for "No Love", "Wink", "Constant Surprises", and the deep boding "Twice", definitely iPod worthy. I have personal taken on the task of working as a future stylist and American PR rep for this group, they may not be aware of it yet (lol).
