Gang Violence
I am totally against gang violence or anything remotely related to the said topic. Gang violence died with the 90s. I mean it's 2011, we have an African-American POTUS, and yet we still find a way to let our hatred consume us. I think gang violence is a cop out, a cop out of responsibilities, a cop out of reality, and a cop out of being your own man. If somebody was really a gangster and wanted to fight and shoot the enemy, join the armed forces HOOAH, let's see how gangster thou art down range and in the suck. Another solution I have, is before gangs or any organized group of people want to face off and shoot each other or assert massive physical harm, just pick the two leaders or the two stingest men, "Troy style" (Achilles v. Boagrius), and let the winner of that brawl be the deciding factor. #foodforthought

Japan | MJ Tribute Concert
I visited my dreamworld country Japan for the first time from 4.8.11-4.13.11. It was amazing. The first couple of night in Tokyo were amazing, I went to Harajuku street & Shibuya and spent about ¥ 30000 on trinkets and keepsakes from small shops and peddlers. The next part of the trip was brewed with rehearsals and the monstrous performance at the Kobe World Hall, in Kobe Japan. Amazing experience, amazing people, uncanny performance. Check my facebook link below for pictures! Ja Ne!

Valentine's Day | Bartender
So I had my first official private bartending gig through my bartending school on Saturday. It was interesting because it was all Mexicans there, and they were bougie (oxymoronic right?) I felt like I should have been Dominican and changed my name to Carlos. In short, I had fun, it was cold, i wanted to dance, i ate, the hosts daughters were drunk, i swear i saw Colombian druglords there, and i got about $200+ in tips I split with my boy toeknee baloney whom bartended with me.

Black College Expo - LA
9 JAN 2011
Myself, along with some of my bros. (Strikers All-Stars) attended the annual Black College Expo at Staples Center in Los Angeles. The venue was flooded with teenagers hungry for college information. We set up shop right next to the FAMU booth (the most prestigious booth there). We answered questions and demonstrated a couple steps to about 100 interested incoming freshmen for fall 11. Next year we plan to set up our own booth and perform a miniature step show and show them how its done!

I, along with some of my family (The Strikers All-Stars) shot a music video for an incredible rock band called "The Airborne Toxic Event". Be ready for some large stunts as well as 60s style lindy hop dancing, and of course STEP! I recently took up Bartending school, and I actually got to play a bartender in the video while simultaneously setting the bass of the rhythm and hopping over the counter to start the dancing routine. Be ready!
