Make Music New York

I was supposed to perform at two different locations for the Annual Make Music New York Celebration. For those of you who aren't familiar. It is the day of the Summer Solstice. Musicians from all over the City perform at hundreds of locations on the streets of NYC. The first location was the same place I was supposed to perform at last year that was thwarted by a rogue thunder storm. This year, I waited and waited and waited and the sound wasn't set up so Coole High and I had to move on to the next gig outside of the Flatbush Development Corporation headquarters on Newkirk Avenue in, you guessed it, FLATBUSH!

Coole High and I tag teamed a set and I must say it was pretty damn good!

I was all over the place. I somehow ended up on top of a fire hydrant. Rhyming to people. They went crazy when I performed "Flatbush". Tons of people joined the email list.
You really need to see a Tah and Coole Tag Team show. We're gonna do it at the Flatbush Frolic on September 14th. You should come out!

Photos are below.

The Jamma at NAMA

You want to talk about Sweat Box?
WOW!
This place was sweat box supreme!
It was about 90 degrees outside and 956 degrees inside. They had one church fan blowing air around and they had all kinds of food laid out. U know I couldn't eat any of it because I'm on this P90X fitness business... man, I never wanted a piece of fried chicken so bad in all my life! It was all home made too. (sigh!)

Anyway... After the people packed in the show started, I got kinda pushed back a few acts. My feature Doc Beats showed up late and he and DJ Polarity held me down on the beatbox because the sound system was not functioning properly. I got up on the chairs and freestyled around the room and the crowd loved it. I performed Semi Reserved Closet Manic and they loved it.

Hot Room, Hot show!

Donate to NAMA... They need air conditioning badly!!!

Today... Is a day for change!!!!

OK man...
I'm fed up with this unhealthy shit!
I'm usually in the gym 5 days-a week.
Since November 2007 I've been to the gym about 5 times in total.
I've gained about 12 pounds and I now have a belly. This shit ain't sexy. People are telling me I look fine but I don’t feel fine.
Stress leads to unhealthy habits and eating patterns which in turn bring more stress and it becomes a vicious cycle.
I'm starting to feel really disgusting. So here it goes. I saw one of these infomercials on TV... I just happened to turn on the TV and it was there. I rarely turn on the TV so this was a message. It was an infomercial for this program called P90X. Guess what… I ordered it. It came and I'm on it like a hornet! I'm going on a 90 day fitness binge. I'm going to put the pre, day 30, day 60 and day 91progression pics up here so around August 26th we'll see if it works like they say it does. Feedback would be appreciated. Support would be appreciated. Love would be appreciated. Help would be appreciated. Buy a CD. Tell a friend, come to a show.

By August 26th. I will lose a toddler! At least a toddler's weight anyway.. ahem...

Hit me up!

Core Rhythm's Album Release Party

What a dope show.
I was like Mr Roarke. your host.
The place was packed.
3rd Party, Verse All, Baba Israel and Yako 440 all opened up the event with insane sets.
Core Rhythm Killed it!
Then the freestyle cypher a-la "Sin Sin" ensued.
Congrats Core!

OK so Second Place ain't bad...

OK Y'all The May edition of the Off the Head Gameshow Battle.

I'm there to defend my title from last month right... and then...

I kill it all the way through to the last round and it was me against PreZZure who is the current #1 contender at my event A to Z eMCee.

After the round was over, the crowd was screaming out for a bonus "Head to Head" round.

I started to laugh uncontrollably for like 20 seconds because I kept seeing this character (that Super King Armor had drawn for a flier for a show we did in March... peep the flier below) with PreZZure's face on it saying "Watcha gonna do now huuuuuh? Whatcha gonna say now suckaaaaah?" I couldn't focus at all and I came out with some of the worst lines in my battle history in between laughing. So I guess the jokes on me right? HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
That was some weird shit.

Congrats PreZZure!

U can't win em all huh?

The Five L's and Tah

If U know anything about me, U know I looooooves me some ladies.
They look good, smell good, sound good, feel good, taste good... Oops did I say that?

I've been thinking about putting on a concert event for the ladies of the mic and talents of all sorts to been seen but those who are clueless. I think that women are under exposed and under appreciated for their actual talents and over exposed for sex and advertising. I think it is time to wake people up! This first installment of what I hope to make a bi-monthly experience did just that.

What I'm thinking about is having 4 ladies and one male who appreciates the feminine to rock at this concert during each installment. What do U think?
Ideas, questions comments? Let me know.

LMNOP set it off with a powerful set. This lady ain't playin'. You can find her all over the Underground. That's why you found here here!






Rachel Lynn came all the way from Santa Monica California and wowed all the guys. What a voice. RachelLynnMuziq.com









You should see the end result of Demostina's Painting. Oh yeah and she's got some music coming out soon. What a talent!
Be there for her next event. Demostina.com


Incks did a short but sweet set including her smash single "Rap Music"






Your host, DJ, Sound Man, Camera man, Photographer, and the closing act of the night:
Tah Phrum Duh Bush
aka Mr. Exhausted!
I debuted a new son off of my forthcoming EP (Luminous Dark Alleys "The Insomniac Works) called "Slumber Free Nocturnal Emission Admission". It was a hit... (Whew! That has to be one of the hardest things in this music game... doing a new song live)

Tax Day invades A to Z eMCee

Another classic A to Z eMCee night

It's gonna be crazy at the next one if both of these guys show up.



PreZZure killed it and took the #1 conteder spot again.
How can such a nice guy be such a beast? Dichotomy!







Beat rhymers rocked the half time show.

Tah's Official Jump Drive/CDR Party!

What’s a jump Drive and CDR party? I’m glad you asked… For some reason most of you don’t have my “Untitled EP”. OK… So I never officially released it. So what? It pre-dates “Sunshine or Pure Shade” but there are some live show crowd favorites on it like “Toilet Paper” and “Middle Finger”. I’m sold copies of my “Untitled EP” and the Flatbush Remixes for $2. That’s over 90 minutes of fantastic music for only 2 bucks. All you had to do was come with a jump drive (also known as a USB flash drive) or a blank CDR.

Ja Tun Killed it for me and Razhel's son come all the way from Philly to rock a set but only got to do one song off of Ja-Tun's set as a result of foul play.

The show was dope. A bunch of people came out to support and walked off happy. 169 Bar is a cool spot but the show promoter was kinda dirty so I actually walked out with less money than I went in with which is worse than performing for free. Job hazard I guess...
Big ups to my man Menyu for holding his composure in the face of underhanded promoters who did him dirty.

I still had a blast and the show was soooo much fun.

Big ups to Coole High, DJ Kevlar, Rabbi Darkside and Rhyson Hall for coming through on the celebrity support.
