WHAT GETS YOU MOVIN?: music

20 Dec



Check out the list I did for VladTV, counting down the top Common songs of all time.  Do you agree with my selections?

VladTV’s Top 25 Common Songs

Pick up Common’s new album, The Dreamer/The Believer, it hits stores today! …and if you haven’t seen it, peep Common’s new video, Celebrate.  I need a house party in my life, STAT!

“and some might say that he’s a dummy…”

I shot extraordinary party DJ, Music Director, Producer, and DJ for Common, DJ Dummy…ok, ok, ok and my artist, a few weeks ago. Here are a few of the images.  I can’t wait until it gets warmer, so we can go on location and hopefully get more creative shots!

Loving the Forever Roc Raida t-shirt picture, RIP Raida you are thoroughly missed.


Also check him out live every morning 7-9 AM, at the Breakfast Club. He starts your day off right…no more angry mornings!

For those in Dallas for NBA All-Star weekend, I’m going to let you in on the places to be, to actually have fun!  If you’ve every gone to the annual event, many of these parties are headlined with athletes and then predominantly stuffed with people who will pay a pretty penny to be around them.  But they’re in some special VIP, that very few can get to, so it ends being an event with a lot of random people looking around and not really partying or the events are filled with girls trying to get to the athletes, and guys pretending or proving that they have clout, to compensate for not being an athlete.  Not really my definition of fun, but hey I guess it’s something to experience at least once; I need cool people and an amazing DJ to have fun.

The great thing about this year’s All-Star Weekend, is that it’s right around the corner of Texas native, Erykah Badu’s, album release, and she’s have a big bash with Jamie Foxx to celebrate.  Also Common’s performing on Sunday at Ghostbar.  I’m always an advocate of good music being part of the formula of any weekend outing.

If you want a party with music lovers, artists/industry folk, people who actually like to have a good ‘ol time…and yes athletes, then head to some of the spots DJ Dummy is spinning.  On Saturday in the day, right before the Slam Dunk Contest, he’ll be rockin’ Kenichi (that’s the flier above).

Sunday it’s all about 944 Magazine, who has one of the most talked about parties of the weekend (check out their list of events).

Dummy will be spinning 944’s game viewing party at Boardroom, and then will be shutting things down with the Common show and after party at Ghostbar.

Oh and Dj Dummy’s has just been added to the sexy Venus vs. Mars party, along with DJ Eque Saturday night at Victory Tavern.  You can check the video invite HERE.

It’s going to be a fun weekend Dallas! Enjoy!
