The show is filled w/great artists such as my boy SPIKoli from LC.BY.RTD, SLOKE from CBS, MEZ from HAD, Chemist, Rei, News, Dmise, COLER from out of H-Town and many others. Its a must see showcase of heat.

Out and about:

So over the past few days I have been out and about checking out some new things that I have NOT since our arrival in Colorado. Peeped the Nature and Science Museum in Denver which was really cool. This place too me back to my younger years of wanting to hunt for dinosaur bones and the chemistry or makeup of modern day animals. During that time I fell in love with Elephants. Anyhow, got to wonder around that place for a while and really enjoyed it. I hate to say but the collective that put that place together did absolutely ZERO justice to the Native American History portion. I am normally one for awe while staring at old and new Indian artifacts and well......totem poles. The health and human display was pretty cool and eye opening.

Yesterday had a crappy day due to an illness I contracted temporarily from California Pizza Kitchen. BOO! Better now though. Last night my better half brought home to me a new iPOD Nano! YAY! Last night spent some time loading and syncing the music for future journeys....



Today we have a great day to enjoy. GOing to the house and then off to paint. Thanks FUSE from AWR, WCA.

Masta Ace and others on ATCQ's "Beats Rhymes and Life"

A few weeks my fam and I were looking at movies and upcoming films. My wife being the true die hard Tribe fan she is was like YO! ATCQ has a movie coming out named "Beats Rhymes & Life-The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest." We were both stoked but the fact that we now live in a place that is culture and color of life deprived we do NOT get t here. In Denver, is that surprising. Should NOT be! Saw ATCQ in Califas a few years back on the Rock the Bells Tour......UH-MAZING! I'll get some personal photos up a bit later.

PEEP:

MCMIreport.com Presents: Roundin' Out A Tribe Called Quest Part 1 from SevenEighteenMedia on Vimeo.



Anyhow, the controversial new documentary about legendary Hip Hop group A Tribe Called Quest entitled Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest is set to premier in front of audiences this summer. The film’s director, actor Michael Rapaport, has chosen to roll the film out in a road-show format, according to Billboard.com. This means the movie will hit different cities across the country throughout the summer.

Watching the video and listening to Ace it was pretty cool to learn how he was turned on to Tribe. I was actually the same exact way, Left My Wallet was the beginning for me and Tribe. Man I remember hearing it and then seeing the video I was buggin out!



Who can forget another banger!



Please go out and support and get educated if you dont know. A Tribe Called Quest will remain a staple in Hip Hop for life in my eyes. Thanks fellas for all you have done and hopefully will do in the near future.....

PEACE.
