Come support my man Malcolm as he drops his hip hoppin new album with a backing live band at Nuyorican Cafe 3/27!!

Obviously I'm biased, but I am admittedly wet in the pants to see this album's sick production translated to instrumentals.

Takin it to the next level - Sound Advice vinyl!!!!!!!!

This is major! My Dj partners from our monthly party Seamless have just dropped three of their productions on a 12" slab of vinyl. Whether you collect vinyl or not, you need to go and cop this. After all, what better way is there to immortalize the Sound Advice productions you've heard come through the speakers at 432 and Sound Advice parties over the past year or so.

I was playing the Bmore Eyed girl track out at gigs (i.e. Uncle Mings) before I even met these guys, so this is pretty exciting. I think they might even be the first DJs that i've ever worked with that have their own official vinyl out (???).

Check it out here:

Congratulations guys. Keep grinding.
