#POWERTRIP06APRIL HOSTED BY HEAD HONCHO

I had previously posted about the first Head Honcho party of 2013, #PowerTrip06April It was definitely a night to remember and I was definitely left impressed by the honcho's for throwing such an AMAZE party (AGAIN). Gents looked fresh and the ladies dressed their best. I kept it real, and rocked my Head Honcho booty shorts with my jays.

Upon entering Trinity, a posh and large venue in Greenpoint, VIP guests received a goodie bag. The goodie bag included a GQ mag, a stylish Remy Martin glass,a can of Play, and a fresh looking Play vest. My FAVE part of the goodie bag was the R100 Head Honcho discount voucher for their online store. I'm definitely going to make good use of that one!

As big as Trinity was, so many Honcho's turned up and filled the venue. The VIP section even got too tight and as a result, we spent most of our night on the dancefloor. And we made no mistake by making this decision! Lulo got us jaaaaamming!!! His set was absoloooooootley beauts and it reminded my friends and myself why we love house music so much! Nothing commercial, Lulo kept it real and deep... WE LOVE YOU LULO! haha!

Now what seemed a bit odd, was the "surprise performance." There were two mics on stage so many assumed it would be AKA or Khuli Chana since they were in town. Fanatic comes on stage and we all were sure sure that AKA was gonna perform, but alas...this was not the case.

So we'll never know who the surprise performance was meant to be, but the night was definitely owned by DJ Naves and SPHEctacula. The club was literally jumping! We shall not speak about the girls that bounced on the stage...that was just nasty! Naves and Sphe were oooon point though! They played hip hop... to Big Nuz to that ooooold school kwaito! We were even doing the Bart at one point *face palm*

 Once again, the night may not have gone as planned for the Head Honcho team, sans the "surprise performance," but nobody missed it because it was such a fun night out. So props to the Head Honcho team. It was another night for the awesome memory books! The pics taken on the night will probaly be posted on their Facebook soon so stay tuned. 

See you at the next one! #allLOVE #HHarmy #HHwinter

Aaaaaaaar yeah!!!! Head Honcho are at it again!!! They ended their year with quite a significant bang at the Biscuit Mill at the end of last year. This year isn't any different, this time they are kicking the year off on quite a hiiigh.....a "Power Trip" to be exact! The line up for #PowerTrip06April is on SMASH! It includes the dapper looking Sizwe Dhlomo, power team Sphectacular, Naves, and Cape towns finest Loyd and Vybes! My fave on the line up is Lulo, just so dam excited to hear some smooothe house tunes, his sets always gets the toes twinkling and a hand in the air *ins ins ins* #HEARThouse The thing that has everyone talking is the "MAJOR surprise Live performance." Who will it be??? I'm secretly hoping for another TKZee performance but knowing the Honcho's, its sure to be nothing short of amaaaaaaazing! 

Tickets are available at Computicket and they're are selling fast! VIP has sold out already, however, word is that Head Honcho will try and release some more, so stay tuned to their Facebook and Twitter feeds! It's all going down at the posh Trinity night club in Greenpoint, so see you there!

 Still don't believe me that its gonna be a good one?? Take a look how it all went down at last year's party of the year at the Biscuit Mill below.....

THE PLAY ENERGY DRINK GRIFFIN SESSIONS #LOOKBACKPOST

The last time I blogged was waaaaay back when. So this feels all so weird. My previous blog was called Strip Tees, Put it on. It was a blog about local streetwear, something I'm extremely passionate about. I unfortuanately lost interest and found it difficult to keep it up to date. So this is me...trying ish out again... the first post is me reflecting....one of my highest points last year, The Play Energy Drink Griffin Sessions, which took place last year. I took part in the Head Honcho T-shirt design competition, I didnt win, but it was definitely an experience I will never forget.

All the magic happend at the old Bus Factory in Newtown, JHB. A weekend of local talent showcasing SA's best streetwear, performers, DJ's and even photographers.

I had tremendous support from my family and friends who have grown to be my family. (THANK YOU) I had to make the T-shirts from scratch. Design it, purchase matierial, sew up the T shirt, have it printed, a fun and stressful process but it was oh so worth it!

HIP TO THE HOP AND YOU DONT STOP!

This was definitely a good weekend! I attended my first Hip Hop Indaba back in September. It happened over two nights. This is my favourite, night one. The evening consisted of em cee's battling it out as well as showcasing some turn table talent. I loved how the participants came from afar just to battle on the night. Em cee's  rapped in english but I thoroughly enjoyed the afrikaans ones, and there were quite a few.  It all went down at Zula Bar! Cape Town definitely has talented artists, many of whom I witnessed for the first time on the night!

Jitsvinger got the crowd going!
