Before I entered the OKayPlayer holiday party I hit the streets with Combat Jack. He hustled me into the holiday party for Angela Yee and her Breakfast Club radio program. That shit was an official spaceship.
The drinks were being poured nonstop and the vodka was Belvedere. The industry heads that came thru were so relaxed and chilly chill it wasn’t even like an industry party.
The best part of the night was when I met RahDigga. She is hell’a tall and so fine up in person. I told her that I had a dream I listened to a record with her, Roc Marciano and Sean Price on it called ‘Grown Man Rap’. She told me that she and Ruck might have a project one day in the future since her last name is Fisher and P’s is, well, Price. What?!? Fisher-Price FTMFW.
Combat Jack is a funny dude when he is getting drunk as fux. He made sure he politicked hardbody for the radio. Expect to hear some more biggtime industry insiders on his show early in the new year. Angela Yee even shook my hand with her gorgeous self. I said “Angela, I had to come and say high to you so that I don’t seem like some stalker just staring you up and down”.
Angela replied, “I didn’t even notice you”.
Niiiiice. I’m mad invisible to her.
The OKayPlayer holiday party was dope even if B.B.Kings was relatively empty considering the Roots were performing. I tried to hang out backstage but I got shut down by the OKP site owner. I guess my rep for being a fixture near the craft services table was my undoing.
Instead I hung out in the crowd with folks like 2Fresh and Seed from the website Rule4080.com
John Legend and Patti LaBelle turned that mother out and Black Thought is STILL the most underrated or overlooked rapper in the game. Peep the concert pics from Rule4080.com to see what I was seeing even tho’ I wore my sunglasses at night.
Big shouts to Roni the Ruffian, Hobbs, Chad Miller and Carl Chery a/k/a The ‘Go-In’ Brothers.
