Hey everyone. Here are some pictures from this weekend's convention. I posted these in kind of a rush. I haven't had a chance to tweak them in Photoshop yet, so some of the pictures are a little dark. I'll re-post them when I have a chance to clean them up. Also, I know I have pictures of New Guy and Greenmachine somewhere too, so I'll make sure they get up.
Our picnic spot SBG snagged for us. It wasn't his first choice, but it turned out to be an excellent spot.
NG: Brother Ali is probably the best albino rapper there is. He's from Minneapolis on the Rhymesayers label. It's always a little strange seeing him actually perform, because he looks so different from every other rapper, even other white rappers. It's hard to put those rhymes to that face.
E-6 June 13, 2008, at 12:01 am 4 LTEs - (Sorry, but the time to add LTEs has expired)Jay Z, New Guy
Thus spake Nu Gui: "PSA" is my favorite song by Jay Z, who is undeniably one of the finest rappers of all time. He has been consistently excellent throughout his long career and various "retirements." This song is produced by Just Blaze, who is my favorite producer at the moment. I'm not sure where or when this performance is, but the energy is absolutely incredible.
The melting continues. I'm seeing grass around the trees in the front (north side) of the yard. Roof is ice free. Grass showing up in the back yard. These updates brought to you by someone who is profoundly sick of winter.
