So we head back to the Mission to grab something to eat. We stop at this Indian spot and order some food. This Girl sits at the table right next to us with her food. She has a pretty impressive spread, but she’s solo. So our food comes, and we are eating when all of a sudden she get’s up. Simbad’s like “I hope she not leaving?” I’m like “No think she just is grabbing some napkins.”
Then I see her walk out of the restaurant!? We’re like whoa that is ill she only took like 3 bites out of her food then bailed? So I’m looking at him, he’s looking at me, and were looking at her spread. Simbad starts going in on her Naan, and I grab some of her curry beef. We’re like that was weird, but oh well. Why after like 5 mins she comes back???
Half the Naan is gone, and we are like “heeeeey we thought you left…(insert oh ish grin)”. She said “Nooo I went to grab a beer”. Ohps. She was totally cool about it though, and I did not mention me going in on that curry beef she had.

I recently got a chance to check out Dam-Funk in SF. I have been following Dam since I stumbled onto his music many moons ago on myspace, long before his current fame. He has a genuine passion, and has been REP‘ing his sound when no one was looking. That is highly commendable in today’s world where gimmick reigns supreme. Truly good to see this cat getting just acclaim, and doing his thing. Catch him if he hits your town…

Got a chance last Friday to play at a friends (DJ Said) party in SF. We & The Music is the latest installment from Said Adelekan a longtime Fatsouls Records label head, and Don of the SF Deep scene. Said has hosted several iconic names over the years such as Francois K., Ron Trent, Danny Krivit, and Dennis F. just to name a few so when I got the call I was more than honored. His Party is held monthly at 222 Hyde in SF which is home to an unbelievable sound system. I had an amazing time. Here are a few moments from the evening.
Sneak peek at an upcoming collab with Oakland’s Omega. Soon on Blaktropolis 2.
