Steven Fox - @ Hip-Hop Subway Series, NYC, 3/7/10.

"LEAVE THE LOSING TO THE LOSERS" FREESTYLE--(FOX WITH DRAKE BEAT)

BrooklynAfrica World Cup Stand Up!

I must admit that I am amped about this concert combo!   I didn't make it to many good shows last summer in NYC due to me trying to get my footing but I vow that this summer will be different!  It will be more musical and on the birthday note of my homie Prem, it will be one worth "The Build". (www.premonitionmusic.com).  I just caught wind of this concert taking place at Celebrate Brooklyn! @ The Prospect Park Bandshell, July 11th, 2010 @ 4pm.  The show will be headlined by The Legendary Roots Crew Band and hosted by BK MC Talib Kweli!  

The summer will get better than this but I know this is one of the great places to start for me!  Other noteables on the show roster are:  SahrNgaujah (star of the hit Broadway show Fela!), Bajah + the Dry Eye Crew, Dragons of Zynth and one of my favorites due to his high octaned spitfire, Blitz The Ambassador!  Once stated, The Roots will be headlining this OkayAfrica World Cup 2010 Finals to celebrate the first time, in the World Cup's 80 year history, the tourney will take place on Native Soil!  It was only right that America was beaten by Ghana!  hahahahahaha!  So it is only proper for me to call this a meeting of the Native Sons!  Big Shout To Rich Wright! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Wright_(author). 

I'm excited about getting involved in the Brooklyn Scene and so should you! Even if you live in the city, you know that Brooklyn is where it's at.  www.bricartsmedia.org/events/performing-arts/okayafrica-with-the-roots-and-talib-kweli

A Budding Preauxx!!!!!??????!!!

Man, I'm tryna make good musik bro!!!! -Preauxx

I was in Memphis a little over a year ago, preparing to leave for my journey in the "Big City and Bright Lights" and I just so happened to be with two of my friends/producers/emcees, 901 and Quake The Great! We linked, hopped into the whip and proceed to Richardson Towers South! (They wanted to meet up with Preauxx)  Now I knew I was on tresspass for being blatantly disrespectful to the disrespectful and I also knew I was running a risk of being arrested but, what the hell!!???!!????!!  Go with the flow!!!! 



I had no idea that I would be meeting the cat who came up to me just months before and offered me props on my own craft!  I accepted, appreciated  and kept it moving then and now I was about to see what he was up to.  Initially, I was ready to freestyle with him and simply build, but I had to listen!  So that's what I did!  He rehearsed, letting future material grace my ears and I smiled......I saw me in him!  The hunger!  The passion! The purpose for more than just typical music!



To keep this honest, direct and open, I have been cutting all ties with Memphis folk from my past and really opening my eyes to my abilities, strengths and just leaving lolly gaggers behind, literally 1000 miles behind, but today I talked to Phat Mak and now I'm listening to this "To Kill A Mockingbird" Mixtape by Preauxx!!!


I will have to say that it is very refreshing to hear new music and concepts from a old place that my heart holds so dear!  With that said, I give props to you Preauxx!  Keep it fresh, keep it aware, keep it conceptual and most of all, keep it Preauxx!  Classic! Timeless and All Love!!!

Big shout to the Dynasty on the Graphics!
