I wish that I could have written this blog much much earlier, instead of 4 hours before starting a 15 hour journey to Shimane, Japan. Yours truly and Cloud NI9E will be holding down a 90 minute set with some unexpectedly new material @ DJ Bar Mix. ?????????????????. BTW, this is my DJ`s hometown, so I`ll be in Supersayan ultra grizzly more… as usual…
Kensho Kuma & Cloud NI9E will be making their debut Vietnam appearance on 08/29/2013 @ Cama ATK in Hanoi and 08/30/2013 @ Lush in Ho Chi Minh City. A third show on the 31st will be potentially added,so please stay tuned… I’ve been saying this for years, but if you really develop a creative craft (doesn’t necessarily have to be MCing, but some expressive form of art that takes time and effort) it becomes a passport and you can rock anywhere in the world. I was being so sincere when I told you in Oakland that I rep the East Bay around the globe. Vietnam, I cannot wait to meet you!
I will be performing in Osaka, Japan, on 08/03/2013 @ Full Bloom. Veteran MC`s Gebo and OKI from Ward Swingaz will be in the house; also this event will feature a special set by B.I.G Joe, who has been one of the most respected names in Japanese Hip Hop for the last several years.
Thizzler on the Roof is a reliable Bay Area Rap portal that closely covers local acts… They have begun a monthly cypher session at the First Friday Oakland Art Mur Mur celebrations; DJ Twelz and Z-Man were hosting the session when I got there and I just did what I do. Props to Deuce Eclipse from the Zion-I crew and Do-Dat from the Attik for holding it down as well. The next one is 08/02/13; I’ll be out in Asia, so go rep for me.
Yours truly is building up his momentum to hit Asia this summer @ Godzilla Grizzly Supersaiyan 100 mode… Well, all that means is that I’ll rock my ass off like I usually do… On June 8th, I’ll be rocking the Gilman Conscious Hip Hop Night at the historic 924 Gilman in Berkeley. 
The organizers of this growing monthly are Skeptic and N.I.C that were featured in this cypher with me; this night also features the debut set of a young MC named Swai-Gu! who I consider to be doper and more dedicated than most youngins out today.
On 05/31 I will take part in a fundraiser with all proceeds going to building a community beat production lab in East Oakland. My comrades Rymo and Dregs One will be performing as well. Please stop by to support a meaningful cause.
”二刀流 （Katana)” featuring Dregs One was included in the “the Program EP” now available nationwide in Japan!
My comrade Sean E. Depp of the Understudies crew will be curating a DJ/ Cypher event @ Ear Peace Records (3268 Adeline St. Berkeley, CA) on 03/28/13. Yours truly will be moderating the cypher with Pure… so come spit some darts!
My comrades, the Understudies (Citizen & Sean E. Depp,) will be celebrating their 5 year anniversary with a Norcal mini-tour and the “One Night Only” album release. The following dates have been confirmed:
the Understudies Norcal Mini-Tour
2/27 San Jose @ Johnny V’s
2/28 Fairfax @ 19 Broadway
3/1 Berkeley @ Ear Peace (All Ages)
3/2 Oakland @ Awaken Cafe (All Ages)
I will be performing at the Fairfax, Berkeley, and Oakland dates… the other guests include Domino of the Hieroglyphics, Bukue One, Pure, and Task1ne from Sacramento… Please check here for more details… 
Yours truly will be doing a show with Sean E. Depp of the Understudies at the historical punk rock venue, the Gilman, on 03/15/2013… This is the third monthly event of independent Hip Hop at the venue; I’ve done a guest appearance and last minute set the last two months, and they’ve been really fun. The venue is all-ages, doesn’t sell alcohol (but does sell candy and sodas,) and even has a basketball hoop inside, so it’s perfect to bring your awkward teenage nephew just entering puberty.
Here is the cypher which broke out last month at the end of my comrade Ras Ceylon’s set… the audio is pretty horrible, but the energy is undeniable…
