[LIVE] Rap City 2010 with DJ Premier - Sydney

So on June 13 I attended an event in Sydney called Rap City, a show that brings together some of Hip Hop's finest for us hip hop heads to go bananas over. You can call me monkey because did I go bananas! (ok I know that was lame). But let me tell you why, here is the lineup that was:

DJ Premier

The Beatnuts

Masta Ace & Edo G with Marco Polo

and 

DJ Total Eclipse

Yep, that's right. I may have been born in '87 but I get it. This is the kind of lineup that makes me happy. So in celebration of my happiness I put together all the footage from the night to relive over and over and over and over, and of course to share with anyone who..well... gets it!! Enjoy =D

WHERE ARE YOU???

Ok so admittedly it's been a while... I know I know I'm the worst blogger ever!! But this is about me sharing the music that I love as opposed to taking over the blogosphere, so think of it as a delicacy? Ok so maybe not so much. Stick with me though, I've been busy collecting amazing moments of music greatness!! Since I last checked in I have visited the shores of Sydney on two separate music missions... what were they you ask? OH don't you worry you are about to find out in following posts, but here's a sneak peak. 

I just wanted to stop in and say, to anyone who actually visits this blog and appreciates what I post, appearances may be rare sometimes but thanks for sticking with me :) oh and read the next few posts about my adventures YAY!
