(I've got the corniest grin ever on my face posing with bassist Alex Bonfanti after the show. I fancied him a little bit. That explains the "smile". Ha.)
This was at the J Dilla Tribute Show at Jazz Café on the 17th. A good night, with good people and great music. I got a bit loud when they wrapped up the show and decided to perform Common's The Light. Check el video chicos and chicas. Oh, I advise you never to have a debate about who is the greatest producer ever at a Dilla show, especially if your answer is not "J Dilla". I think it's DJ Premier. They didn't agree. Shoot me.
At the True Hip-Hop exhibition in Shoreditch. Finally got to meet the amazing photographer Mike Schreiber and hear him tell us about the ins and outs of his book. My favourite snap definitely was the Mos Def portrait (see above). He looks so innocent, no? Got my book signed too and met Mikill Pane. Ace.
On my lazy days, this is what I look like. And who better to listen to than the Punisher? I think the above pic is me listening to Super Lyrical featuring Philly rapper Black Thought. "Lyrically... it's suicide!"
