Seems like more of a Jungle Brothers show than a Native Tongues reunion but I can dream right? Music by none other than Kool DJ Red Alert. link

I had a chance to do Soul Train – i didn’t wanna do it cause i didn’t wanna lip synch – smh (i think i should’ve done it)

Peace to NYOIL for putting me onto this. Not sure if I can make it but I’m going to damn well try. Wonder if tickets are still available. link

Yeah, that ridiculous lineup is all for ONE show. Hosted by Funkmaster Flex, Red Alert and Ron G. Better yet, ticket prices are only $30! Even better, the show takes place on the night before Memorial Day so no worries about waking up early for the day job! link

I hope some of y’all caught the FREE Black Sheep show over the weekend. If not, too bad cause Dres killed it. When I walked into the venue, a rock band called Uninvited Guests were already performing. From far away, the lead singer looked like Kid Rock so I thought I made a wrong turn somewhere coming up the stairs. Nope, I was at a Black Sheep show. They were decent though. The turnout was miserable considering it was FREE admission. I managed to get right in front with ease. After a short set by DJ Wex, Dres came out. He didn’t waste any time talking and went straight into some classic tracks like Flavor Of The Month, Strobelite Honey, Butt In The Meantime and, of course, The Choice Is Yours (Revisited). Dres also performed material off his new album 8WM/Novakane. Some dope, some not so dope. And if the set wasn’t good enough, he brought out special guests like Rhymefest and Ladybug Mecca (of Digable Planets). Videos on the way. Hopefully.

Interview with Mr. Long aka Mr. Lawnge (Black Sheep)

Dres talks about making The Choice Is Yours and the follow-up remix, the latter being the single that basically put Black Sheep on the map commercially and still gets the clubs poppin’ today. “Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up!” Link (via)
