Rakim @ BB Kings – 11.19.09
So last Thursday, my already insane event got even more insane when I wound up winning tickets to see Rakim @ BB Kings. Big shout out to Audible Doctor of the Brown Bag All Stars/Fat Beats crew for hooking me up! Got to BB Kings around 10:30pm after making my other rounds for the evening…unfortunately, I missed Rhymefest, who was the opening act =/ I was happy to run into my brothers from another mother, Mike & Patrick, as well as my photog homie Natty Night (stillonvinyl.blogspot.com). Many thanks to R.H. Bless for being my concert buddy for the evening! Shouts to Zulu Jeff (who was wearing a SUIT!), Kool Herc, Photo Rob, Sav Killz and K. Salaam who were all in attendance…
Rakim had on his comedic/player hats on that night, catering to both the fellas and the ladies – a true entertainer! He even cut up the turntables in a brief exhibition of his budding DJ skills – a rare treat! Go cop that new album, “Seventh Seal”!
Just wanted to share a few photos with you from the evening…Enjoy.
