Ahoj Good Peoples!
Reporting live from Brooklyn soil, back from an amazing 7 WEEK EUROPEAN TOUR. I can’t begin to express my gratitude and love for all the folks that made it a smashing success, from Strasbourg to Berlin to the Czech Republic to Holland to London. So many beautiful people came together to pull it off, and this is only the beginning..
Prague was deep with Brooklyn for the last week: Hired Gun, Farbeon, Kid Lucky , Tah Phrum Duh Bush, Core Rhythm and Dyalekt were all in the house for Hob-n-Nob and a special Prague edition of the Hip Hop Subway Series!
To celebrate the return, I just launched 3 NEW SONGS from my new album “BUILDING THE BETTER BOMB.” You can now peep ”2x2”, “Go Back to Bed” and “Don’t Let Her” on the music player.
If you haven’t copped it yet, you can now digitally download t hrough the SNOCAP player on my myspace page, or still get one of the few remaining hard copies at “CDBaby. com
Also… I have a brand new feature length interview with BEYOND RACE MAGAZINE.
Click that link.
Big ups to Alix, Adam B and everyone at Beyond Race for the opportunity to spread the good word!
Lastly, we’ve got some big shows on the horizon.
I’m back on the 1s and 2s at ALL GOOD @ GOOD WORLD this Saturday night. Come get up and get down as we kick off the fall season.
We’re also celebrating the arrival of THE CZECH BEATBOX ALL STARS TO NYC! There were no teary goodbyes in Prague because we are promptly holding the NYC Hob-n-Nob Release Party next Friday, 10/10 @ Asteriks in Bushwick, BK! The whole crew will be in effect to unleash this international collaborative effort on the U.S. Stay tuned for details.
Peace and Love to all my heads worldwide!
Blessings,
Rabbi D |
