WWW.FLAMPRO.COM aka THE GUDWORD. ROCK THE BELLS 2010
ROCK THE BELLS 2010 NY
Wow what a great experience to enjoy the Rock The Bells Concert this past weekend in NY. It was my first time to Governors island, at least i have my sea legs from my many trips to Staten Island cause the ferry was rocking like the minnow. The island is an old abandon army base. The concert was on the field and it was hot like being in a cotton field. The main stage and the Paid dues stage were set up on opposite ends so if you chose to hear some up and coming artist like Jedi Mind Tricks or Brother Ali you were in no rush to walk what felt like 5 blocks in the sun to see whoever was on the main stage.
I started my journey on a funny note as i am about to go thru security and i have vodka in my water bottle and rolled blunts in the brim of my hat, i have to turn around and chug the vodka cause it was in an open bottle. Nice!!!! i start off with a buzz; they had two security checks as i go thru the second one the hat being in my bag leapt to freedom and its passengers jumped for safety, thankfully they dont pay those event security guys enough to notice the little details like my perfectly rolled blunts on the floor. I scooped them up in my hat and kept it moving Hurdle one avoided. When you get off the boat the walk to the main field where the concert was held, was a chain fence walk-way similar to what you see in prisons, it was a little ominous considering you were also walking past abandoned building that were used to house the military, but the were the same building you would consider projects anywhere else. If it were not for the amount of white people around me i would have thought this was some sort of Tuskegee trap.
3:30pm
Finally at the gate take my ticket out and POW another security check, thankfully i grew up in the time where they had just started to use metal detectors, otherwise i wouldn't have like 15 different stash options at all times. Beat that security check and the party is on though the gates i walk and The God emcee is on the stage Rakim....Now my only thing i need to do is hook up with my boys JMarkx and Teknision oh by the way that will be my theme all night) Rakim is on the mic and you know i got soul. If your were like me and you went out there early you knew that sun was going to be a factor. I knew by 8 or 9 it would be over for most of the early goers that sun was a killer. So after Rakim finishes his performance, its time to light up!!! and thankfully NYPD was 420 friendly this day. I literally saw people sparking up feet from the boyz in blue...so in the immortal words of Ice Cube "it was a good day"
The biggest fail for the day was phone service. You would have had to keep your phone on roam to get any service on the island it was like using you phone in the middle of the dessert. This was the main reason i did not get to link with my peoples, but as i roamed around i ran into so many heads i never felt alone. Big shout to Doug @fludwatches got to chop it up with him and his lady about LOST. Big shout out to J.Period i ran into him and he provided me with extra credentials so i could get into all of the VIP areas with A/C...that was a god send.
As the night progressed and Artists after artist ripped it was time to get to the meat of the show. Ms.Hill came on and did her thing, i heard allot of complaints how everything in her set was sped up and done at different tempos than the original songs, but for me she was just a musician doing things her way. Most memorably was when she sang "Zion" and she had her children come to the stage the oldest being Zion who is 13 and she says that she cant believe its been so long. But it has to speak to why she didn't want to do the same songs she has been doing since 1997. THe highlight of her show , was the people that came out to see her perform, on the side of the stage was celebrity couple row Jay&Beyonce and Swizz&Alicia, Mary&Kendu, John Legend(place model here) and Chris Rock. It was great to see New York artist coming out to see and make it a moment in hip hop history.
Ms.Hill
Next up to the stage was A Tribe Called Quest..."Queens Represent" The last time i had seen tribe together as a full group with Jarobi, was Howard University when the Low End Theory dropped...So i knew the feeling i had at that show was special. I only could dream that i would come close to that feeling @RocktheBells...I got off the stush shit and went deep into the crowd pressed between one dude my age and surrounded by the new breed of hip hopper. Tribe performed Midnight Marauders in its entirety in sequence order. Of course they started it off with the female digital host "hello" in living digital flesh she was on the screen behind Tribe leading you on this musical journey...
A Tribe Called Quest
Heres Busta rhymes with the scenario....Watch
A TRIBE CALLED QUEST ABSOLUTLEY KILLED THIS SHOW..THEY WERE THE HEADLINER THAT YOU DIDNT WANT TO PERFORM AFTER....."STOLE THE SHOW AND I LEAVE WITHOUT A CLUE
I will let Dallas Penn do the Wrap up for me...
Wu-Tang Clan
Seeing Wu perform was some sort of musical cleansing some real good rugged hip hop
Shame on a Ni**ga
Verbal Intercourse in D.C This is the only thing that would have made the show any better if Nas had shown up for the NY show, but at least the footage from this classic song will do. My dude Datwon had said this to me when we were watching the show "like what if Nas had come out and did his Jawns"

WWW.FLAMPRO.COM aka THE GUDWORD.
What up folks. This has been a good week for music in NY. I have to say that Brooklyn Bodega is keeping HiPHoP alive this summer. They hosted a week full of events dedicated to the HipHop culture. I was able to attend one event and if this event was any indication of how the others were then i suggest you do not miss this festival next year. I hope you enjoy the few things i could pull and post from the festival. But the stand out thing for me just being a hip hop fan is meeting Marly Marl, that was Fresh....Thanks Mr.Swift!

SALUTE THE DJ by Rob Swift
July 8th, 2010 will officially go down in history as one of the most EPIC nights in NYC HIP HOP. I mean, isn't it obvious? It's 10:00 am and I'm still wired from the energy I felt on stage at Brooklyn Bodega's "Salute The DJ" event.
Wajeed, DJ Spinna and Bobbito Garcia aka Cumberslice kicked off the event on the perfect note. Their love for music of all kinds was evident in their selection. They played a variety of genres and kept the dance floor rocking from the time I walked in, to the time I hit the stage at 11:45 pm! People, I saw vinyl being played at a HIP HOP show! This is a huge deal for me cause in my travels across the globe this year it started to feel as if the DJs I encountered here and abroad have lost touch with feel of wax under their fingertips. In short, Wajeed, DJ Spinna and Bob showcased the art of true DJing and did HIP HOP justice!
At about 11:20 pm Rhettmatic took to the turntables and proceeded to take us back to a time where Hip Hop was about clever lyrics and hard hitting BOOM BAP beats. Rhettmatic completely raised the energy level. The minute he executed his first scratch you could feel the vibe in the room was ramped up yet another notch. Rhettmatic held it down strong till I joined him on stage 20 minutes later for tag team of cuttin' and scratchin'. Rhett's classic BEAT JUNKIE style of rocking the decks meshed perfectly with my X-ECUTIONERS style of attacking the wheels! Considering we only practiced for about 2 hours the day before, the chemistry between Rhett and I only emphasized when the smoke clears, true skill and experience triumphs over the "make shift" DJs we've seen popping up in the scene lately. None of them fools want it with us!
At approximately 11:45 pm, Rhett passed the scratch baton over to me and I took off running like there was no tomorrow: http://yfrog.com/0d16463153z
Words cannot describe how it felt to perform my routine "Nobody Beats The Biz" in front of the actual producer of the actual song, Marley Marl! After my performance, I was humbled when Marley walked on stage and said "Rob, I was waiting for you to pull that one out". Words cannot describe how it felt to give a copy of THE ARCHITECT to Large Professor, the man who taught me how to produce a song from scratch (Haha, excuse the pun). Words cannot describe how nostalgic it felt to see Bobbito Garcia backstage, it was Bob and Stretch Armstrong who introduced the X-men and I to New York radio on their classic "Stretch and Bobbito Show" from back in the day. Words cannot describe how it felt being photographed by Joe "the man who took Hip Hop's baby pictures" Conzo. I was in front of mentors, teachers and legends like Grand Wizard Theodore (the man who invented scratching) and Pop Master Fabel (member of Rock Steady Crew)!
But just as important, being in front of all of those beautiful yellow, brown, white and black people in the audience really hit home for me. All of those that came out last night serve as a reminder that HIP HOP LIVES. You just gotta know where to look!
