Nice work! Believe this Gem was taken up at the races in Saratoga Springs. Way to go Dr. Sharkman and keep crushing those Miller lights.

KeapHope’s own Dr. Sharkman wins Most Hip Award!
So my friend brought this guy George over to my apartment last weekend. Turns out he grew up in the town next to where I grew up in Boston. That was about it until I learn this morning he’s behind this band Javelin on David Byrne’s label Luaka Bop. I spend most of my time in a cave so I’m not up on much new music but this is some pretty great stuff and after a little interweb research it seems like they’re up to some very interesting things. Check out the album. You can listen online or buy it. Hope you enjoy.
Rough Start to a Monday
So I woke up to this email today and really bummed me out. Guess I’ve been slacking on showing up to The First International Church of Dinosaurs USA meetings. Don’t worry Karl… Whoever you are.. What are you some whack Charlene? Maybe a Bob Hope? Mr. Universe will be mayor again!
SICK MOVES BRO!!!
Its friday people. Get weird. And remember to always have more fun than the other guy.
Axe Music presents: TI, King among kings
On Monday night the King of the South let the world know he was ready to take back his thrown with a special Axe Music performance at Capitale in the Lower East Side. The recently incarcerated rapper pulled out all the stops for his first stage performance in New York since his release, rocking alongside what he called the other “Kings” of the game. During a close to two hour set filled with firey emotion and non-stop energy, TI brought out the “King of Harlem,” Cam’ron, along with the Cam’s latest protege Vado, followed by Maino, Swizz Beatz, Kerri Hilson, Grand Hustle’s own B.o.B. and the Queen of hip-hop soul, Mary J. Blige. It was a stage show so big we had to share it. Check out the video above for a taste of TI and friends celebrating the return of the much missed charisma of TIP.
I originally wrote and shot this for Time Out’s music blog, The Volume, but they have been slow to post, so until they do, here it is for ya.
Apologies on the audio, new video file coming, issue with the upload. Fixed!
Fan video: What these b!tches want!
You gotta love this. A brother to a KeapHope fan (thanks Laura!) purchased one our classic DMX t-shirts and it inspired this little performance at what only looks like a mess of Fraternity party that we are sorry we couldn’t attend. (We love drinking other people’s beer.) Check it out above, and below, our take on the exact same thing. If you still want one of these t-shirts we have about 6 left in Large. Drop us a line.
Thanks for everyone who came out saturday. We’ll be taking it up a notch for the next one so make sure to bring your A game.
whizhouse disclaimer: We will have an official video from the party soon, though it might be just as ugly as what Fitz pulled from youtube.
The Chef says Wu-Tang
I shot this pic of Raekwon during his video shoot with Director @Derekpike for J Dilla’s “24k Rap” feat. Raekwon and Havoc. Check the vid below. Was an ill shoot shot at ALIFE’s retail space on Rivington. If you haven’t heard the Wu army is reuniting for what will go down as a legendary day at Rock The Bells on August 28th with the famed crew coming together to perform the entirety of their breakthrough debut, 36 Chambers.
