Last night I attended Pepsi Proper’s Pop Up Retail store and its accompanying show. The store itself was nothing to brag about, as when I got to the spot there were maybe 12 people inside tops, with a good seven of them being the vendors. They were all down-to-earth, however, and one of the promoters gave me a 12-pack of soda and some tees just for showing up. I returned later on that night – as another promoter suggested I show up by 8pm, even though the event started at 9pm – with two of my friends, where I ran into Picaso of Language Artz, bananaclipse, E-Dub, Convinced, their respective friends and a pair of cuties from Chicago who had just moved to Southern California (and were pissed when they found out Cali clubs shut down at 2am. So Cal lost) who came early also, only to be told to come back at 9pm. That’s the last time I come early/on time to an event. Eventually we returned and were let in; but unfortunately some were not because they weren’t 21, while ‘clipse forgot his ID. Ouch. While inside the DJ spun good music, I kicked it with U-N-I, Pacific Division, Dom Kennedy, El Prez, Ayomari, TiRon, eazee and many others, temporarily fell in love with a few of the curvy women that attended, wanted to gank Tyga for his chain and my inner fan boy came out and I shot a pair of pictures with Pusha T & Malice. All in all I had a good time, considering it was my first time seeing both Pac Div and Clipse perform. Above is the footage I got of Clipse doing “Keys Open Doors,” with Pacific Division’s “Mayor” and “Taste” under the cut. Shouts to everyone I met that night, and if I forgot to mention, my bad.

Yeah; never come early to an event. Looks like yall had a good time. Man i dnt understand why they have all the performances/events in So Cal. Come up thru tha bay area; oh and clubs in tha bay don’t close till 3/4 am.
>Yeah; never come early to an event.>
duke told me in the day time to show up at 8pm to avoid the line. when i got there at 8pm i and my friends were the first people in line. EPIC FAIL.
Yea the night was dope, I felt for my man ‘clipse not being able to get in cuz the party was indeed jumpin. I seen some pieces up in there most certainly.
Yea if you thought about comin and didnt, you lost.
Im one of the ones who wasnt able to get in because im 20 bull shit!
i love it when ya post original content.
i’m still mad that the clipse don’t mess with pharell like that anymore. those tracks fell under most innovative the years they dropped. the lyrics were a given, but the tracks were just dope for no reason. oh well. all i can do is hope the production on “til the casket drops” is at least some what decent…
[...] and DJ Spintelect, we held it down for you. I lost tho because I forgot my camera, so just enjoy the footage that I just swiped from Mek Dot. Im sure he’ll have pics up [...]

Hi. Just want you to know you have made my day with the Chi-town cutie shoutout. My homegirl and I really enjoyed ourselves, especially observing the Cali Swag. However, we are the life of the party and had to step it out just a little bit. The DJ was hype and the performances were cool too! I give So Cal 1 point for a cool night! Much Peace and Luv
lik PAC DIV said, L.A. got a “TASTE” 2 A.M. maybe 2:05
HIT THA SACK or the HOUSE PARTY, then the AFTER PARTY!!!

Damn me and my girls woulda been “Moded”. lol @ moded.

Pac Div remind me of Tha Alkaholiks. Hip Hop is fun again.
>did they play GRindin?? =D geek>
