"Flashing Lights" -Paparazzi Pics (Pt.172)

Back to the REAL again huh? As the weather is cooling down, seems like Aspen is heating UP right?!? This time around it was Eric Roberson's (3rd picture w/ co-B'day girl Tamara O.) turn to celebrate his birthday at "WORD!" with us. And he did it in grand fashion with a listening party for his latest release and a live performance for all those in attendance. WOW! The brother can SANG man! Not to get so graphic but even over the music you could faintly hear the wetting of panties throughout his show. Thankfully his WIFE was there to seist all that. Some power couples came out to spread the love too, like actor Anthony Mackie (Spike Lee's "She Hate Me" & 2pac in "Notorious") w/ Joi Styles, and Amanda Diva and artist Concep. DJ Phaze from B-More started the night off w/ the Ahficionados closing out the party, which was a nice blend of the two sets. Once the show was done and the cake came out it was PARTY TIME! Chair needed to be moved table set aside for all the "happy feets" Now we got more coming if you missed this one don't fret. This coming Tues. (8/29) fashion brand LeRoy Jenkins takes over the place w/ DJs DB & Wonder on the tables. The Beyonce' endorsed foundation GEMS will be hosting an art auction in the private room next door to us AND NYC mover & shaker Jumanne Ford will be toasting his life w/ multiple bottles of Patron with bunch of good friends. You better be coming out! Don't say I ain't tell you...

"Flashing Lights" -Paparazzi Pics (Pt.111)

Seems like artist went from painting live at parties to hosting their own events over night huh?! However this one was powered by the almighty Coup D'etat Art Collective, last Friday at SlyArt vs Robot City (near Canal). I hit the spot about 9ish, and it was beyond packed up in that bitch, to be such a wide open space. Alot of the supporting art scene came out to show support which added to the rain forest type heat circulating in the spot (lol). The artist made great use of the wall space to display their various works of art in as many sizes as there were pieces. Judging from the amount of familiar faces I saw, I swore I was STILL in Brooklyn for a (very) hot minute. But honestly where CAN you go and Brooklyn to run the joint? Peep the cameo return appearance of Sallomazing in the pics below...word!
