Last night, I braved the frigid Michigan temperatures to see my friends Fluxphonic perform at a local hip hop event. Ironically, they are not a hip hop group but that did not stop them from rocking the crowd with their brand of funk. Last night was my 1st time seeing lead singer Steffanie Christi’an in […]

This weekend, I had the opportunity to see the Russian National Ballet perform Swan Lake downtown Detroit. After seeing Black Swan twice, this came just in time while I was hype. The performance was quite exciting & very graceful.  Scenes two & four (The Lakeside) were the best & like what I imagined. Up until […]

There’s always something going on at Washington Square Park; fights, naked sun […]

Questlove is one cool mofo on stage & in real life. It’s something really fun about shooting him live. Maybe it’s the afro?
