Cafe Artum alongside the team at the Hockley Social Club to celebrate 50 years of Hip Hop have asked me to program an event to be held in Cafe Artum on the 12th of August.
I joined the team at HSC over 2 years ago as a dj and video/photography collaborator. The owners always made it very clear to me how important it is to them that Hip hop music is represented in their venue.
My first time djing there was alongside Birmingham Veteran E Double D. So aside from me just playing there, there are many other DJs there who do play quality hip hop music. James Swindourne who is one of the owners has always been keen to get me involved in there events and has been watching and paying attention to my journey for many years now and alongside Jayson Wynters from Cafe Artum they have been programming with their team led by Andrew Milford and George been putting on some very intersting cultural events in the Cafe Artum Space.

For the last 2 years I have not been able to speak about this project. Mainly because it was too hard to believe it was actually happening. The country had gone into lockdown and the world came to a halt as the pandemic first struck. I was put onto furlough. Asked to remain at home to stay safe while the government works on a plan to contain the virus.
Whilst at home I threw myself into my creative work, taking full advantage of the time at home. There came a time when the people in charge of this country put an end to the lockdown and allowed people to return to some sort of normality. Gatherings were limited and people still had to social distance. I was at a BBQ in london. The host of the event came to me and showed me a pair of sneakers that took me by surprise. I was a little offended that I had not had a pair sent to me due to my friendship with the artist. I was pissed off.
Returning home after the BBQ I was still feeling a certain way. I sketched out an Ewing Sneaker and created a sneaker inspired by the Album Funk Your Head Up by the Ultramagnetic M.C’s. I liked the style of how the guys dressed on that LP cover. I like Timberlands. I created a fake advert as if the sneaker was real. I showed my friend Marc Davis who has been a colleague and long time collaborator. Both of us are not only fans of the group but over the years have worked with the group as well. I have real friendships with all members of the group.
I fooled Marc with the advert, he thought it was a real sneaker. We decided to send the advert to whoever was running Ewing Athletics. After some time we discovered David Goldberg is running the brand. We contacted him and within an hour David contacted us setting up a meeting stating he wants to make this sneaker.
I remember thinking, is this for real?. After a discussion with David and Marc we decided to create something to mark 35 years of Critical Beatdown. David graciously asked me to come up with some designs for the sneaker to present. We used the Rouge Sneaker. The reason I went with that was that I was thinking back to the guy’s interest in the Star Wars original movies. Rebel Base comes to mind. After agreeing on the design we discussed the packaging. Again David left it to me to have full creativity on the box design and paper. This led to me and Marc looking at the opportunity to do something very special here and came up with the idea to put an album together to go with the sneaker. A Vinyl LP was too big to fit into the box so together with David we agreed to package the Sneakers with a cassette tape. Marc Reached out to TR Love who presented a live performance recording. Marc got the tape mastered and passed onto me to select and edit the piece to be used. I also got to design the cassette artwork . I chose to put the sneaker on the cover to cement the package and that in years to come anyone that has this cassette, will know it is paired with a sneaker.
We then went into a meeting with Kool Keith which CedGee later Joined. Me and Marc presented the project to him which took him by surprise. The story behind how it came about impressed keith. So much so i remember when Ced Joined the meeting he said Ced, Pritt tell him how you made this happen. Ced could not stop laughing. I won’t forget that meeting. Lots of great energy.
We went into a further Zoom meeting, introducing David to both Ced and Keith. David later met them in person. Some months later David sent over the first pictures of the prototype sneaker. It looked awesome. They kindly sent me the first prototype of the shoe. It was not a pair. Only one shoe was made. I can’t explain the feeling when that box arrived and I opened a box containing a show I designed off the back of what was a fake advert. A very proud moment.
We have kept quiet about the project fearing it may not happen. But it is. As you read this, on this day the sneaker is released to the public. Look out for the special limited edition pack with the cassette for all the die-hard Ultra fans. Yesterday. I had a meeting with David where he showed me the box. I have not received my pair yet. I would be lying if I said I am not excited to get my pair. You can order your pair here.
Off the back of these Sneakers me and Marc Davis have formed a partnership under the banner THE BUSY BODIES after one of my favourite Laurel and Hardy Movies. Both of us have a long history in this Hip Hop culture and both have been on our own journeys. We both run record labels and have been friends for what is now about 20 years. We have already completed our second sneaker with Ewing Athletics which will be released at a later date. Working with David is a real pleasure. His heart is in the culture and has a passion and respect for our ideas and creativity. We keep the business very simple and we create something special.
Do check out this interview with fellow label owner Ray West of Red Apples. I was first introduced to him through A.G of Showbiz and A.G fame. Together they launched their label Red Apples. Over the years Ray has certainly been one of the very few producers you can truly say has created his own signature sound that has gotten better and better over the years. When so many people can look at the artists such as Dilla who possibly is the catalyst of everything that came after. There are artists such as Madlib and RIP Doom who both came with their own sound that you can identify with. I think people have really missed the boat on Ray West.
When I was first introduced to him. The sound he brought was the first time I ever heard it. I’m so set in my ways on the first listen, I didn’t give it a chance. After listening and paying attention to him I started to appreciate his sound. The project with O.C Rays Cafe I think was a definitive turning point and since then his sound nobody comes close. Ray is a very gifted producer. I saw this interview with him posted yesterday. Thanks to Powaful Impak Network for doing this interview.
Mickey has been a long time supporter and collaborator with me and the team at KOTB. I was and still am a huge fan of the second Main Source LP, F What you think. The Album featured the Legendary Queens M.C. Former Sleeping Bag artist who recorded with the Engineering and Producer giant that was Paul C (RIP). Along side their DJ Johnny Quest they released a line of hit singles including ‘My Telephone’ and ‘Comin in the House’.
Back in 2008 on a trip to NYC I met up with Mikey to film him for the project that I later released as ‘Memories of Paul C McKasty’. A year later he was on a plane here to the UK after I was able to bring him over to the UK with the help of Kev De Kosta and the Brighton Hip Hop festival.
Over the years regularly we communicate, as friends and fellow artists, we help each other obtain and achieve our goals.
Mikey recently has ventured into building his brand Pass the Torch where his aim is to bridge the gap between generations of artists and creativity. Slowly creating a community where together we can all learn from each other’s experiences and ideas.
He has been putting the spotlight on artists that came before him that most of us may not of heard about. People, who influenced, guided him throughout his career.
If you are interested in hearing about the man and the conversations he has with the many guests Mikey features on his show Follow his Channel.
I got to join Mikey for one of his live feeds as a guest. It was a good experience.
Tha 4orce returns with Big Cakes as they revisit their hustler’s anthem, Revolve Around Science Remix continues that hard boom bap and straight facts that most would come to expect from these two heavyweights in the art of beats,, rhymes and cuts.
If you have been checking out the new releases by Tha 4orce you may of noticed we have been remixing the videos two. This was shot 3:30 am Sunday morning in the freezing wet weather. I really like 4orces dedication and determination to get these videos done. He turns up to the shoot car loaded with Turntables and drum machines. Very few people have that focus, there are a lot of lessons to be learnt by his work ethics.
Thanks to all those supporting buying his project. Look forward to dropping the LP Setting Standards 3 Later this year.
We would like to thank the Team at Minima based in the Hockley area of Birmingham City for supporting me as a Birmingham City Independent Artist, by stocking our latest works.
Minima is a very contemporary home furniture and lighting store selling some very stylish and unique pieces. I first went there after Mr Wynters invited me there for a pop-up store he was having at the location.
The Owner and Staff were very friendly and interested in some of the things I was involved in. I felt our book and Shaw Theatre Project would be a suitable product to fit into their line of products.
I can see some pop up events and Collaborations happing in the future. If you are in the City and would like to get a copy of the Lp or Book. Pop into Minima you won’t be disappointed.
‘For those of you that are unaware, the King of the Beats label has released a rare Hip-Hop jam from 1985 on vinyl. What’s special about ut is that it was the first time major Hip-Hop acts from the Bronx, New York shared a stage with some of the best Hip-Hop performers from the UK’s fledgling scene.
As more than a few people have pointed out recently, in my 35+ years doing what i do, I’ve pioneered a few things. Things which were considered ‘game-changers’. Such as;
1) I was the first writer to have a tag that was exclusively calligraphic.
2) I came up with the term ‘Calligraffiti’ in 1983.
3) I was the first writer on this side of the Atlantic to have an aerosol piece on billboards all over the country.
4) In 1994, I wrote, produced, & directed a feature-length documentary on Aerosol Culture called ‘Get The Message’. As far as i know, at that point, no writer had done that (Still I’ll not forget the work of writers like Kilo with his ‘Visual Graffix’ vids that were crucial in documenting the train scene).
5) As far as I know, I’m the first writer to literally spray-paint record covers for an album release. Not have paintings turned into printed covers like what Futura 2000 did for the Celluloid label in the 80’s but literally paint the covers so that each buyer has a piece of my art for themselves.

Huge Thanks to Pritt & Marzena K – @magentadk who took the awesome pics! & Of course the guys at AM Screen Printing in Redditch for use of their space!
Everyone says that pulmonary fibrosis is irreversible, and Du Unlock the Power of Apple Cider Vinegar Gummies: A Keto Guide Heng has always believed so.He could only ask Wang Shuqiu, Then Do you want to have dinner together tonight You find a better hotel for your aunt, and I will transfer some money to you later.
After speaking, he reached out and pointed inside, For this dish, select four squabs.Even the salary of this person in the logistics department is less than the minimum standard, only 1,800.
If this is not cured, this girl may not be able to go out.I have been busy treating patients and focusing on the general development of the health center, but I have neglected the wards that are most prone to problems.
After an episode, Du Heng started working again. But after this time, he became much stricter about admitting hospitalized patients.I have to work the night shift tonight, and someone else will be picking up the shift for me.
But Du Heng didn t care whether they were happy or not, and directly asked Wu Buwei to take them to memorize the medical records accumulated during this period in the health center every day, and copy the medical prescriptions by the way.People huffed and puffed around her. At the current temperature, plus the temperature emitted by the human body, the temperature dropped by P.
After laughing, the two began to chat. When they talked about medicinal materials, Liao Quansheng suddenly said, That s right.The most exaggerated thing is that the side of his newly built brick house is actually covered with weeds.
The most outrageous thing is, My aunt actually held a wedding for herself in this house.We will see what happens then, it will be nothing. As for the moth matter, let s have a meal together tonight.
Xiao Du, after listening to what you said, I have an idea.He didn t even have time to eat breakfast. Drive slowly and save time first.
After speaking, he turned his head to the computer, pointed to the article on the screen and said, Then what you said above about treating stroke paralysis and hemiplegia are also true Is there any evidence Pei Jihua couldn t hide the smile on his face and said excitedly, It s true.These situations are all in Du Heng s information. He was not at the scene at the time and did not know the specific situation, so it was difficult to evaluate this person.
Introduced by a friend Who I didn t ask in detail. Forget it if you don t ask, Du Heng doesn t care very much.But Sister Zhang is different. Although both of them are just over fifty, they are women after all.
But as soon as she left, she called Gong Daoyang to talk about it.Du Heng wanted to roll his eyes, but he held back, You must understand one thing, hot means the external environment is hot, cold means the cold inside you.
Hearing the laughter from behind, Du Heng turned around and glared at Wu Buwei.You can book the room first. No, she and my uncle have already taken the car back by now.
The leading guy looked indifferent and asked the two people behind him to help Sweet Success: Mastering Keto with Directions & Gummies the patient up, and they walked together to the office of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters.But the two places he mentioned seem a bit fierce. There is information at the pharmaceutical factory.

Everyone knew that Zhang Dewen noticed it, but they pretended not to know and responded politely.The monthly expenditure is at least 70,000 yuan. This abolition will save our hospital more than 70,000 yuan per month, a year.
Or when my sister in law usually looks after the store, you can go home and continue to raise your sheep.Especially when I saw this young man jumping around, his tone became a little softer, Xiaokang, don t be like this.
He then repeatedly told her not to talk too much and not to spread the news about Feng Su throughout the hospital.I just arrived in the capital today. I heard Professor Lan say that you are sick.
The woman reached out and grabbed the man s palm, and the man held the woman s palm tightly.When it got dark, I picked up Wu Shengnan and Wu Buwei s girlfriend, and the four of them went to have a meal together.
So our ancestors decided to study stroke very early.Qiu Pingzhen was speechless. Du Heng was grasping at a certain point and preparing to kill it.
Du Xueting cleared her throat and tried her best to keep her smile from being stiff.The two sang in harmony, which was a bit embarrassing.
Now that Du Heng s words were in place, his mental arithmetic was finally on the ground.In addition to the constraints of professional ethics, there are also restrictions by laws and regulations.

Does that mean that in traditional Unlock Your Weight Loss Potential: Are Via Keto Gummies Worth the Hype? Chinese medicine hospitals now, the number of practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine is lower than If your project can be completed well, you will have trained a large number of elite doctors for your province and accelerated the construction of traditional Chinese medicine in your province.
She admitted that what Lu Guangying said was the best way.Du Heng pursed his lips. What Li Jianwei said made him feel very uncomfortable.
If you have any objections, let them come to me. Du Heng s attitude was a little tough.However, personal fame is too weak to withstand the test.
I have something to do today and I can t come. Wang Zhenzhen on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, then asked kindly, What happened Do you want my help Du Heng Then he quickly recounted what happened last night.He is now Unlock Your Metabolism: Are Trim Drop Keto Gummies Worth the Hype? the last hope. If he had nothing to do, he could only ask the hematology department to quickly correct the patient s coagulation function and reach the stage of surgery as soon as possible.
I am willing to come here, firstly, to get over the addiction of being an official, and secondly, to help build some connections.I coax your grandma, and I will coax you no matter who you are.
Returning to his small second floor, Du Heng turned off the fire and prepared to go to bed.Zhao Xinfang smiled, I m so young and so handsome, they will definitely be rushing to be a security guard.
How can that be done Isn t Fuel Your Keto Journey: A Deep Dive into Orphic Nutrition ACV Gummies this a joke How about this Give your aunt some clothes and bring some cigarettes and wine to your uncle.The man helped his wife and left. The onlookers all began to blame Du Heng.
I ve probably never heard of this before, so don t treat me like a fool.The reason for the huge difference is the difference in medication.
The two of them moved Zhang Xi to the clinic with difficulty.After all, working as a clerk in the bureau is very different from working as a small leader outside.
He felt Fueling Your Transformation: Exploring Keto Blast Gummies and Their Potential that there was something wrong with his memory, but he soon understood, Oh oh oh, Master.
Quiet. Du Heng quickly suppressed Wu Buwei s howling voice, Do you see the problem Wu Buwei nodded wildly, You see it.I am getting old and the functions of various organs have deteriorated.
The teacher is also an associate professor. And if Du Heng remembered correctly, he seemed to have picked on a deputy chief Chinese medicine practitioner in the province in the past two weeks.Even though the Unlock Your Potential: Demystifying Xtreme Fit Keto Gummies – Are the Claims True? patient was still awake, Confused. At this time, the busy leaders finally finished their meeting.
Apply to a big hospital Du Heng couldn t accept this path of work, and few hospitals wanted him as a health center doctor.The grandma who was sunbathing at the door next door also chimed in, Xiaoqiu brought her friends.
Then use Shunu Yiyin Decoction. Du Heng told him very clearly.Those who have been examined are generally over 45 years old, and no one under 40 years old has been found.
After sitting down, he asked, Dean Du, are Genmao okay now The big problem is over.Not recommended either too expensive or too cheap. It s too expensive, probably because it scares people away.
Her sister in law Zhang Sumei glared at Du Xueting, It s been two weeks since the senior year of high school started.She stayed there for whatever reason, and spent more than 70,000 yuan in four days.
Another thing, since someone pulls you over, they will definitely not arrange a good job for you.Second father, second mother, are you here As soon as he entered the yard, Zuo Liangliang s voice became louder.
I thought you were also a general practitioner.
Jin Zan didn t want to talk to this sinner anymore.
This situation is a normal reaction, but the person has just woken up and is a little unable to keep up.And now that our hospital is listed, we have With the support of this hospital, I believe that upgrading will be easier.
Qiu Pingzhen He immediately said seriously, Don t worry, Dean, I will follow your ideas and lead the way forward for the health center.Director Wang looked at Guan Bo, who was under control and was slowly calming down after taking an injection, and then looked at Tang Yinglong who looked in disbelief next to him.
In their eyes, this is a very mysterious thing, and it is a very pretentious thing.The voice suddenly made his body tremble slightly. While quickly retracting his hand, he also turned to look at Guan Bo behind him, with a slight smile on his face, Dr.
There were people talking in twos and threes, either loudly or in a low voice.Hey. Du Heng couldn t say anything after being treated like this by Li Shuxun, so he could only sigh and said, According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, children with pure yang and hot body like to eat cold food.
Then he looked at Zhang Dewen, who had an ugly face, and quickly smiled to cover up his embarrassment.It was getting bigger and bigger, and the airport staff had begun to squeeze into the crowd.
If I hadn t taken the medicine in time, the patient would not only be It s because his mouth and eyes are crooked, his arms are numb and he can t stretch them, but he Fuel Your Keto Journey: A Deep Dive into Orphic Nutrition ACV Gummies can t even walk and has become paralyzed.Click A bright light flashed at the door of the room, and Gong Daoyang recognized it as the village doctor Du Fei who came in.
Otherwise, I would have paid millions in Unlock the Power of Apple Cider Vinegar Gummies: A Keto Guide taxes. Du Ping looked up at his brother in front of him and was speechless for a moment.With his quick mind, he could roughly guess what Du Ping was thinking, and he said hehe, Brother, I originally wanted to give you one million, but you definitely won t want it, so I ll use five or one hundred thousand to give you another one.
What are you doing What do you want to do Do you want to hit someone Guan Bo staggered back, but when he stabilized his steps, the shouting became louder, and his mobile phone was waving around at the people in front of him.When the doctor ran up to him with a stretcher, Du Heng quickly Sweet Success: Mastering Keto Gummies for Long-Term Weight Management stepped forward and began to explain the situation of the eldest sister.
I want to compete with you in an honest and fair way, and I want to regain the teacher s face.there are also cold fruits like watermelon, and I can also confirm that when you eat these fruits, you must take them out of the refrigerator.
However, Du Fei suppressed his dizziness and nausea, rushed in again, and turned off the gas tank that had been leaking.This is the cause of spasm in children. In Chinese medicine, the five internal organs are a whole.
So she doesn t push or make trouble now. She just waits for you to ask all the questions and then come up with solutions.It is time to deal with them. For a moment, everyone in the office was in a state of collective anger.
Li Qin s big eyes blinked twice more, Okay, I still don The Jia Ling Effect: How a 2026 Wellness Movement is Rooted in a Viral Weight Loss Story t understand what you said, but are you sure you can cure Director Jia As a friend, you don t believe me Li Qin rolled his eyes and said, I m asking you on behalf of my sister in law.Du Heng took a breath, then held his breath, carefully took the two inch silver needle, and slowly inserted it into the Baihui point.
Even though she was not in good health, she took Du Xueting to play in the mountains early the next morning.She became distracted. Who on earth was brave enough to commit two crimes in three days at the same place Aren t Unlock Your Metabolic Potential: A Deep Dive into Keto ACV Gummies you afraid of being discovered There are tree lined avenues, benches, and a scavenger who is not mentally right.
Du Ping immediately felt as if he had eaten shit, disgusting and uncomfortable.The problem is not major and will not affect the normal operation of the hospital.
And coming with him was Team Zhang who was transferred directly to the Municipal Maternity and Children s Hospital.
