MERCH BOOTH POSE ( Blitz and the Legendary Prof Griff of the Public Enemy at soundcheck)
So I'm still recovering from rocking two nights with PE…..wow who ever thought. You gotta understand my excitement here people. I remember Public Enemy came Ghana in 1992, right after the Fight the Power record was humongous…. and I remember everybody that knew a bit about Hip-Hop had a PE t-shirt. Even some folks who had no idea about Hip-Hop still rocked the shirts all for the infamous black and white scope logo. So to be part of PE’s 20th anniversary was like….DAMN. See I'm only 25 years old so when I was 5 years these brothers were selling out concerts around the world. How insane?? Anyways I can’t even give a play by play account of both gigs but I can say me and my 3 piece horn crew and percussionist got the crowd super hyped for a blistering 2 hour PE set. I performed the future classics 'Hands of time', 'B-Boy Massacre' & 'Losing your Mind' which got the best crowd response hands down. Actually my horn section was so dope that Chuck D had them come on stage and rock one song with PE. Big shouts to Omar, John, Rob and Ben and Optiks for putting together the set last minute. This is how you end a crazy eventful year, from rocking BK HipHop fest with Ghostface, Celebrate Brooklyn with KRS One, Warped tour and now two PE 20th anniversary shows ?????????? '08 has got to be the year of the EMBASSAY! Thanks for all the love & support through out the year. I know the big question now is when is Suicide Stereotype coming out? All I can say is that it wont be long.
Peace.
