SKEME - KRAZY (APE SHIT) LIVE at SOB'S (VIDEO)

I posted a video of Skeme w/ Dom at SOB's last week.  Here is some more footage from that show which was actually the Leaders of the New Cool x Hustlepalooza: The Collab CMJ Edition show. The lovely Dominique from Hollywood East (Leaders of the New Cool) sent this over to me to share with the coast.  Skeme repped for us well as he was considered THE performance of the night.  This was one of the most talked about shows especially since it made it onto Mos Def's radar to the point where he chose to show up and make a surprise performance.

SKEME & DOM KENNEDY LIVE at SOB'S (VIDEO)

So Skeme and Dom killed over at SOB's in NY I heard and here is some footage.  The funniest part is Skeme yelling at the heckler in the front before getting into their track.  I saw the quotes on twitter but seeing the video is always better.

MARZ LOVEJOY AT CMJ; TALKS the L.A. HIP HOP SCENE (VIDEO)

In this piece, Marz sits down to talk about the bubbling L.A. music scene, comparing it to New York in the '90s.  One of a handful of youthful west-coast artists on the come-up, she is at the center of a movement at its boiling point.  She expresses her excitement about the groundswell of support and the crystallization of her efforts right before she rocks the stage at the iHipHop x FrankRadio CMJ 2010 showcase.  Undoubtedly, Marz Lovejoy’s music reflects that she is in fact the total package; brains, beauty, charisma and talent. - iHipHop

As you know NahRight & OnSmash had a showcase for the CMJ event and OnSmash has plenty of video for you to see...but since I've been really digging some of the stuff Curren$y has dropped lately I decided to post his video...there were no LA artists on the bill...Wiz Khalifa even appeared to perform one of the tracks I dig off of their How Fly project.  Enjoy.
