You're probably wondering what the fuck the title is referring to. Let me tell you. That is what I'm about to tell you.
If you are an avid hip hop lover, you had to have heard of KRS-1. If you didn't know what his name meant now you know.
Why am I bringing this up?
Because he is going to be performing at SOUTHPAW this Friday. So if you are a KRS-1 fan or just need a dose of real hip hop from a veteran of the game, I suggest you check it out. And check out the other talent that will be performing:
Donnie Goines Jah C The AnTiDote Eternia + DJ ELEVEN (the RUB)
Event Information Southpaw 125 Fifth Avenue 718.230.0236
Cost: More Recession Prices $15 Advance $18 Day of Show
Go to the Highline Ballroom on Monday February 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why? Not because I said so, although it would be nice to have some faithful followers, but because "The Ghost" aka "Pineiro the Ghost" aka Mothafuckin "Styles P" is going to be performing. I mean, how could you not love this dude? And who knows, if we're lucky, perhaps Jada and Sheek may show, but even if that doesn't happen, you know Styles holds his own. He's a "Gangster and a Gentleman" (if you didn't get that reference, go fuck yourself)
And not only will he be there, but DJ Green Lantern, Sean Price (of Duckdown Fame), Stalley and Scram Jones will be there.
This event is also an album release party for "The Green Ghost Project" which drops the next day on February 2nd.
If you love that raw shit, I suggest you check it out it's gonna be hard.
And the best part of it all is that if you're a broke ass motherfucka but not too broke, the ticket prices are at a recession special. Check it out:
Advance: $15 Day of Show: $17
Now, let's put this in prospective:
Tickets: $15-17 dollars Round Trip on MTA: $4.50 Getting Blazed Before the Show: Varies on your weed and alcohol consumption Seeing Styles P eat niggas asses (no homo): FUCKING PRICELESS
Jeffrey Atkins better know as Ja Rule was recently pulled over by the police because "supposedly" the vehicle he was in was driving over the speed limit, without insurance and a suspended registration. When the police checked the car they reported they smelled weed and found a .40 caliber semi-automatic in the rear driver's side door. If Ja Rule gets convicted he faces up to four years in prison. Although he admitted to having some marijuana on him he will not face charges on drug possession. (Ja Rule Was Not Driving By The Way)
