New York, New York: big city of dreams indeed. I finally got my brother to come with me on a trip and what a trip it was introducing my twin to my world. We hit up all the spots, ate the best foods, and hung out with the best people. This week I am hitting L.A. and then the ATL. A lot of things are happening around me so I feel like dreams money can buy. I'm just too busy to drive stick.
Café Habana in the Summer Time
WHAT: The best corn in the world
WHERE: Café Habana, New York City
WHEN: Monday (May 16), 8 p.m.
I was in town with my twin brother and I was raving about the best corn in the world so I decided to treat him to a few pieces. I met up with my friend William Yan and my homegirl who hates yellow cabs. We ate corn and drank until we got silly. Still trying to find out the special corn recipe. If you decide to hit up Café Habana, all you need is the corn in your life…
Alife x Uhuru: Private Property

WHERE: 312 Bowery, New York City
WHEN: Monday (May 16), 9:30 p.m.
The homie Arnaud from Alife invited me out to his private property event and party at 312 Bowery. It was such a cool little vibe of hip-hop and art. It was on some old New York shit. I ran into some of my NYC friends who were in the cut. In the basement King Solomon was dropping old school hip-hop and the rest of us were drinking all-you-can-drink Budweiser. What a night! The art pieces done by some of New York City’s finest were pretty interesting. If I had 25K I would have purchased something.
The Filson Experience

WHERE: Ace Hotel, Room 911, New York City
WHEN: Tuesday (May 17), 11 a.m.
I made my way to the Ace Hotel for the exclusive Filson press event. The room was fully decorated in Filson from window to pillow. We also got some really amazing parting gifts. The new collection is pretty awesome, and for the first time in their long history they are introducing accessories and a collection in black.

I got the chance to chop it up with my homie Bun B at the Sneakerpedia event. He was tripping to finally meet my twin brother. We talked about Gumball 3000 and how amazing the experience is. Bun is the coolest rapper in the world. Word to UGK!
The Blind Barber
WHAT: The Blind Barber interview
WHERE: The Blind Barber, New York City
WHEN: Wednesday (May 18), 4:30 p.m.
I was invited down to the Blind Barber to partake in a series of special interviews. The space is pretty amazing, a great concept for a barbershop and bar. I was able to chop it up with the barbers and be part of this great interview. I was also given a dope haircut with a straight razor. I think I'm bringing the fade back! Word to Gogy. Make sure you say hello to Jeff, Gogy, and AJ and tell them that I sent you. The Blind Barber shop is a place that I could hang at all day.
