Baile Funk Comes to DC

The first time I saw Diplo spin, it was at Dragonfly last year. The dude is fire, but let’s just say that the crowd was more interested in looking pretty than trying to dance. (It’s a DC thing, trust me.) Hopefully he’ll get a better reception when he plays Black Cat, but somehow I doubt [...]

Oh I have The Shining too, but I’m not sharing it with y’all, you need to go out and cop it and support Dilla. Besides, I deleted yeesterday after 2 listens.

WTF is the Wu Tang Dance?

Is the Wu Tang Dance Philly’s answer to Chicken Noodle Soup and LA’s Krumpin? And yes, I need a late pass for this cause I never knew this ish existed until about an hour ago.
I’m off to North Carolina for the weekend. See y’all on Monday.
