Mek Piisua is a Japanese MC/ business mogul/ high class player, located in Bangkok, Thailand. The Thania location of the Woodball chain is one of my rebel bases in Bangkok; it’s a Japanese style bar with a Japanese curry restaurant underneath. Anyway, Mek recently teamed up with Japanese Hip Hop legend Yamadaman, from the pioneering group Rappagariya, and dropped the “Mai Pen Rai” video. “Mai Pen Rai” roughly translates to never mind or it’s not a big deal. The production is handled by DJ 2High, a Long Beach Japanese producer down with Snoop’s Dogg Pound. It was shot at Pattaya Beach, and let’s just say.. what happens in Pattaya, stays in Pattaya..

Kensho Kuma Rocks Bangkok
Yours truly is rocking the Jam Bar in Bangkok on September 4th, 2014 with an all star line-up of Thai- Japanese Hip Hop acts. Legendary SFC/ BKK DJ Spydamonkee will be in the house; he is arguably the most respected turntablist in Thailand and also runs the Beat Lounge Hip Hop rebel base in Bangkok. Mek Piisua is a Japanese MC residing in Thailand and also runs an awesome Japanese curry shop in the Thania district of Bangkok. Spydamonkee’s Paranormal DJ crew and Protozoa will also be in the building.
I will get back to Bangkok next Monday and look forward to a guerilla promotion campaign.
