Alright.. I’ll be rocking a block party by Japan Town on 05/24/25.. It should be appropriate for the whole fam, so feel free to bring your children and elders. Peace.
Yours truly will rock a short set on 05/14/25 at the Flow Lounge event at Club Cali on Telegraph Ave, Berkeley.
Every Wednesday, NGO Hip Hop for the Future throws the Flow Lounge party. The event features a Rap writing contest, where MC’s write two 16’s on a specific topic, and the winner is selected by the people. (The topic and instrumentals are chosen beforehand.) If you’re interested in participating, please write HHFTF’s page above).
This is when I won several weeks ago!! The topic for that week was educational reform.. so I had more than enough material to go in..
Shout outs to Khafre Jay, DJ Lex, Do Dat, and Frank Stickems, for providing a space where MC’s can MC!!
Alright!! Start your new years off correct with the Realest Coolest Dopest New Year Rap Show Ever on 01/03/25 going down at the Ivy Room in Albany, East Bay!! Shout outs to my Buddhist brethren Senor Gigio for organizing the show.

Alright, here’s a banger that is a lot more political, jazzy, and mature than my usual material. I actually sound like an emcee in my forties.. it’s dedicated to the liberals and conservatives who continue to polarize our nation and demonize the other side. I am extremely proud with the way it turned out.
My group 2nd Floor Samurais did a track produced by the late Sticky Ricardo!! We all miss you dearly and please do save a spot for us.. we are doing the best we can down here and will forever rep you..
