Nees, I know it was Cinco De Mayo and I know sometimes you may consume yourself with mushroom caps and copius amounts of illegal absinthe but lets try and refrain from posting on the blog during those times, shall we? Thanks for coming over today. Your friend was totally sweet, but tell him the mandals gotta go yo. I don’t care how hot it is outside, even if you are Jay Z, IT’S NEVER GOING TO BE A GOOD LOOK!

In other news I will be joining Amanda Blank and Aaron La Crate on a European Tour in a week! Yikes! Now that I’ve been making some of my own music, this will be BIG and FUN for me! I’m pretty excited about all of this. Junior came over yesterday and gave me my first music program and tutorial on Ableton Live. I spent last night before the Sweatheart show fooling around with it and looped my first beat! I am so excited, I wrote a rap too, Amanda gave me a B+, and Brown Baby Maria gave me an A+.
Anyways here are the tour dates for May in Europe. I know my favorite Splaymaster will be up in the mix for a couple of shows. I’d love to find out if anyone else is out there for the jumpoff. Please let me know so I can get you on a guestlist or somethin.

Inspiration for the Next 50 Years…

Friday, May 5th, 2006

Those once in a lifetime opportunities you have to grab without ever looking back. I pride myself in risktaking. Its a little secret I’m about to share with the web. There it is. HAHA, Anyways its much more than that to be successful but thats a great start. So first and foremost lets just shout out my Homeslice of Nice, Claw for the ultimate inspiration. The first female to run the streetwear game and Fashion Editor over at Swindle Magazine. She asked me to interview Susanne Bartsch for the next issue of Swindle and of course I jumped at the chance to meet a Legend in NYC nightlife.

She was amazing, larger than life. She lives in the Chelsea Hotel (what? ok!), shes married to a million dollar muscle (what? ok!) but, I could not stop comparing our lives/lifestyle. Although there some BIG differences (shes married, shes 50+, shes balling out the frame, shes Zaldy’s muse, shes sober, lol), she and I share the same dream of bringing all types of people together for music and magic, our inspirations are very similar as well. More importantly I’m writing this article for Swindle so you’ll have to wait awhile…but for now, a photo retrospective of Mrs. Bartschs primo looks and flyers.

Thursday, May 4th, 2006

Does aNYone want to tell me what was up with Chitown’s finest GLCs wardrobe on Friday? Hot damn! What is it and do they make ladies sizes? I’m intrigued, it looks like someone is giving him a XXXrated or something. I’m into it.

Niggaz and White Girlz…

Wednesday, May 3rd, 2006

As offensive as this might be its funny to me. I’m not the type of white girl to use the N word. Never that. But I am a big fan of black men. Regardless, if you havent listened to the KIRB & CHRIS album or Sampler, “Niggaz & White Girlz” you really really should. What other rappers are gonna make it hot over the Smiths? None really, thats why you gotta step the game up and come correct to the Knitting Factory tonight! I swear you will love it and laugh. If you don’t crack a smile I will give you your $6 back and rap for you. It’s my new favorite thing to do.

Live at the Knitting Factory….

Kirby Dominant and Chris Sinister are KIRB AND CHRIS, they’re diggin’ in the crates of New Wave Thuggery and have a thing for white girls.  Fresh from the Bay Area, their recent release “Niggaz ‘n’ White Girlz” on Rapitalism Records mixes New Wave 80s beats, sensitive raps and hilarious skits with a sweet interracial humor. Referencing love songs from The Smiths, Talking Heads and Depeche Mode, KIRB AND CHRIS successfully present their message with old and new style.

Hide your daughters, a thugged out interpretation of 80s and New Wave is here….
