Last night around 9 I made my way into echo park and had dinner with The Gray Kid, Dan Weisman and some cronies. Weisman manages Wale and played me some of Wale’s new heaters and OMG dude is going so hard. Tracks with TV ON THE RADIO, GLITCH MOB, LADY GAGA yes it’s that eclectic and all heatttt. I’m really excited for Wale. He’s gonna have a great 09′.
After all of that commotion and an amazing meal I headed to avalon to see my homie and “heavy bass champion’” Drop The Lime Aka Curses! aka Luca. I’m always so hyped to see this dude, Luca is always full of great energy and somehow takes anyone he’s interacting with to that happy place he’s in. Seriously a choice human being vampire.
I slid up on to the stage when devlin and darko were playin and saw a bunch of friendly faces including No Culture’s Johnny Love and his lovely lady Alexandra, Franki, Dirty Dave, Dan Oh, actually theres no way I could name everyone so lets move on haha.
After Luca tackled me and said what up he went on and proceeded to destroy Avalon. I mean i’ve never seen LA kids dance to dubstep, i’ve seen some head nodding. I’ve seen some arm waving. But never some serious getting down. Luca had people getting retarted on the dancefloor it was wonderful.
My personal highlight was when luca played AC Slaters “The Woah” such an epic tune. Another supreme highlight was watching everyone freak out when luca grabbed the mic and sang live. He looks like a vampire but sings like a 40 yr old church going black woman (audio proof below).
Either way if you aren’t familiar with his stuff go follow these links below. This year is gonna be about positive affirmations and watching my peers and friends take over the world. Drop The Lime was already XL8R’s artist of the year in 08′ lets see what he can whip up in 09.
TROUBLE AND BASS (Please check out everybody in the crew they’re in the top friends and everyones really talented – Passions, Star Eyes, Math Head, AC Slater, Acid Jacks, everybodyyyyy)
Listen to this vampire sing.
