After several months of planning, The Couch Sessions, in association with NYC promoter Senari was proud to introduce their signature showcase at Speakeasy in Austin. It was, by far one of the most diverse lineups at SXSW this year, combining reggae, hip-hop, club, and electro. Starting off the night was New York’s Deadly Dragon Soundsystem. [...]
Yeah I know, we say it all the time, but DC has long been overlooked in the music department – particularly hip hop. Although Wale has definitely helped boost our ratings, we still have a minute to go before the Nation’s Cap is truly recognized as a city to reckon with. Fortunately leading the soon-to-be bum rush [...]
We’ve been hearing about Will.I.Am’s new group with Tabi Bonney for quite some time now, but I’m glad to see that they have dropped their new video for the track “Love Me.” The group consists of Tabi, Niki Jean (not the one you’re thinking of), and Grammy winning producer PoetNameLife. I’m loving this track! It’s [...]
If you haven’t heard about or watched any of the shorts from the Creative Control camp you are losing. DC artist Tabi Bonney GOT IT IN w/Ski, Mos, Dame Dash & co. and heres a short visual showing the energy and rawness of the space. Tabi Bonney – Nothing But A Hero from Reynard Alli [...]

Paul Wall made history by becoming one of the first major artists to shoot his video using an [...]
At long last, the video for Phil Ade’s Hollywood, directed by Tabi Bonney. Hollywood still gets multiple spins on my iPod this year and this video (crafted by the Tabi’s Cool Kid Forever Films) is another winner. A portion of this video was filmed over at Stussy DC. If you need to catch up with [...]
DOWNLOAD MIX HERE, tracklist after jump DC fashion line DURKL marches to the beat of a different drummer by comparison to the rest of the city. But they’re not about to change. Thery’re in the process of molding the city to meet them. Having existed for three years in relative anonymity, 2009 has been the [...]
DC rapper Tabi Bonney is a video making machine. His 12th (yes 12th video) is for his latest single “Jettsetter” off of the completely slept on (outside of DC at least) DOPE EP that dropped this spring. Bonney’s follow up to Rich Kids has him high on the rooftop somewhere in DC (is that in [...]
If you’re not familiar with Rock The Bells by now, you should probably consider finding a way to hurt yourself. Seriously. On Sunday, Nas, Busta Rhymes, Big Boi, Common, The Roots and several others made their way to the DMV for what can only be described as “THE GREATEST F*CKIN SHOW ON EARTH!” Doors opened [...]
So most of y’all know that I’ve been in full on DJ mode or the past few months. For the most part, I blame my homie Marcus, but on the other hand, I needed a reprieve from what I consider boring, formulaic music and DJ’s are my new refuge. I might be losing what little [...]
