Whatup world? To all those who took the time to vote for me, your support paid off.

I will continute to do my best to rep for this Country.  My team goes hard and we are just beginning..!

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone! Hope you guys all had a safe and fun time on New Years Eve where ever you ended up. Thank you to everyone who partied with us at GOSSIP for the NBA Celebrity Soiree - the vibe was crazy..! The Toronto Raptors & Denver Nuggets were definitely in the building; my man Carmello Anthony from the Nuggets hosted my 2nd set and there is a possibility of an Allstar Mixtape in the works.. Not a bad way to start of the year!

Once again, I wanna say THANKS to everyone.. ‘08 was a crazy year for me; I got to open concerts & shows for Nas, Mos Def, Just Blaze, Little Brother, EPMD etc., toured Canada & The United States, playing parties at The Playboy Mansion, in LA, Vegas, as well as private parties for Usher, John Legend, etc!!

I’m going to be working overtime to make sure this year is even better.. I have lot’s planned and tons in store!!

Thanks to everyone who has been down since day one, and to all of the recent supporters as well. To name everyone is next to impossible, so I’m going to avoid doing so for the sake of most likely leaving out names.. But a big, big thanks to everyone - if you have helped or supported me in anyway, it does NOT go unappreciated.. Trust!

So it’s a New Year.. Let’s go..!! Here’s what’s up for ‘09 so far as far as clubs, radio & tours go!

My man Be from TheLegendsLeague is a not only a friend, but is also a business partner, a daily dose of motivation, an inspiration, and on top of all that, he just happens to be one of the illest designers on the planet. Yeah.. I said it.

His clothing line IDEALL CLOTHING is an extension of TheLegendsLeague movement, and has been steady snapping necks and attracting quite a lot of attention over the last little while..  Although still in it’s infancy, the line has already dropped some very heavy pieces, selling out at the few spots it is available at.

Fret no more, you can now purchase the goods online! We’re open for business! Don’t sleep!

For all my DJ’s who pass through Vancouver, make sure you link with my dude Hunt.. The studio is state of the art and a lot of people have recorded there..
