It’s “CALI” everywhere I go !!!
Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Yesterday. Midnight. Jumped out the cab, walked in…instantly said, WTF ?!!! Kinda already had an idea of what it was going to be like before but…I thought it would be on a smaller level. “DRE DAY” is what it was called, completely Dr. Dre music, and all West Coast Hip-Hop, one club…the whole night. I thought to myself, OKAYE !!! I’m wit it. Especially being from Cali, especially being born and raised in LA. Granted, even when we’re in LA…we don’t listen to Dre all the damn time but, it felt good to walk in somewhere, being able to relate to the music, and see a shitload of other people in New York feeling the same shit.
Thing is tho, they took it to another level. The stage had two DJ’s, some inflatable palm trees, a street sign or two, and a few other props. When I say it looked like the $20 Sack Pyramid on stage, I mean it literally did. **( http://bit.ly/cfNZIL )** Downstairs had two full bars, one of em serving 40ounce bottles of beer, and even had a photo booth cutout of the Chronic album. Remove Dre and put your own face on the Chronic album cover ?! Dope. All in all, dope night, cool event…probably wouldn’t work in Cali but I was rollin.
