Aziz Ansari’s Kanye Stories

Posted in Artists, Comedy, Kanye West, Live Performances, Videos on January 23rd, 2010 by Hyphen

I hope you caught Aziz’ Intimate Moments For A Sensual Evening special on Comedy Central from last week, but if not, here’s one of the highlights courtesy of NahRight.  Everything Kanye does is hilarious – I’ve been saying this since the first time Tunji and I met dude in LA in ‘02.

Kosha Dillz – Off The Top

Posted in Artists, Live Performances, Sound Session, Videos on November 5th, 2009 by Hyphen

The homey Kosha Dillz came through the station recently while he was out on tour with the RZA.  You know we couldn’t let him leave before he kicked a little freestyle in the KUBE 93 parking lot.

Kosha will be joining us in the studio on this week’s SNSS as the road warrior himself is back in Seattle.  I’m predicting another dope free off the dome…

Kanye West – Glow In The Dark tour book promo

Posted in Art, Artists, Kanye West, Live Performances, Lupe Fiasco, N.E.R.D., Videos on October 31st, 2009 by Hyphen

*Speechless*

This was the best concert I’ve ever been too and with everything going on that day (girl was in town, chilling with N.E.R.D., catching up with Lupe, etc.), it was probably one of my favorite days ever.  Ah, memories.

Someone buy me this book for Christmas.  Kthxbye.

Shad freestyle from 2006

Posted in Artists, Live Performances, Shad, Videos on October 30th, 2009 by Hyphen

From the homey G:

This is some old footage from Shad’s 2006 performance at the Beats, Breaks & Culture festival. He was opening up for Cadence Weapon in the Brigantine Room at Toronto’s Harbourfront Centre.  There were some technical difficulties with the decks in the middle of the performance, so Shad dropped a free, and I started handing him stuff that I found by the stage.

I love ish like this.  Reminds me of simpler times.

CunninLynguists – Nothing To Give (live)

Posted in Artists, CunninLynguists, Live Performances, Videos on October 29th, 2009 by Hyphen

Dope video from CL’s performance at the 2009 QN5 Megashow from NYC a few weeks back.  Deacon, Natti, and Kno performed their entire A Piece of Strange album (which is a certified hip-hop classic) with Club Dub backing them up.

Unfortunately, I don’t believe the band will be joining them on their upcoming tour, but regardless, you won’t want to miss this show when it rolls through your town.

Seattle folks: you can catch CL performing with Looptroop Rockers, the homey Tunji, and some of our hometown heroes, Grieves & Budo, on November 25th at Neumos.  Be there.

Seattle: Looking for Halloween Plans?

Posted in Artists, Live Performances on October 28th, 2009 by Hyphen

Look no further!

I’ve talked about my day job here on TAOD a few times, but I haven’t mentioned that one of the perks is working with some really cool and talented people.  A few of my homies from work are part of a dope rap/rock band called the Goondocks and they’re throwing this event on Saturday night at Spitfire for Halloween.

Not only do you get some great music and some freebies from Stoli Vodka and Snowboard Connection, but you can come kick it with some cool folks at a great venue.

Oh…and it’s free.  Beat that.
