The Fake Drake Show at Element in Hollywood.

Flashpoint Grafix — Mon, 25 May 2009 09:47:00 +0000

After about nearly getting trampled for about an hour after the scheduled 12:30 performance me and my homegirl bounced. We got gig'd to cover the event but hospitalization wasn't worth show coverage that could only last 20 minutes—plus the red carpet was wack—maybe the worst setup in Hollywood...EVER. Cops and fire department came out to do their thing and someone screaming on the mic at 1:30 was NOT going to make LAFD kick everyone out any slower. What the PD should have done was find the promotors, escort them out, find out where the 20K was at, and distribute the refunds. Those people stood in a line for hours (impressively, it wrapped around the block) to pay 20 bucks each. Check the moneymaker's logo's below:

Sidenote questions for the evening:
1) Is it sheer determination and willingness that makes a person—essentially swimming upstream—forcefully continue down a completely crowded hall with the clear intent to crush all in his path with the simple thoughts that if it's a fragile looking girl then all the easier? In this situation, other than the feeling of 'winning', is there really a point to "getting to the other side"?

2) At what moment does it click in a bouncer's head—when looking at a handful of half-trampled girls in a sea of dudes again, "swimming upstream"—that he considers their plea's of help as NOT a "girl thing" and that waving that silly little flashlight from the stage not only makes it noticeable that EVERYone is ignoring his commands of "get out of the way" and "fallback" but they are really starting to realize his slowness is enhanced by his stupidness.

3) Does "shouting out people" during such a fiasco help take your mind off the pain of a persons elbow in your back? Does the whole "I didn't see it happen so i guess it didn't happen" thing really work? Apparently Cory Maggette's (GS Warriors) brother thinks so.

Will.i.am spins on air live

Flashpoint Grafix — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 17:48:00 +0000

Will.i.am didn't come in to talk or dance or that kind of stuff... he came in to play selector in his own personal 30 minute live mixtape at Power 106 in Los Angeles. Granted the mix wasn't for the mainstream—but if you can trust that Will is going to weave in music in a set that he's feeling right now...then it's a good guess that that style of music is going to be right on the horizon of what everyone is going to be listening to soon. Here's the live mix and freestyle. Tell us what you think.

Junior (Threat and Needle) is 40 pairs into this series. He's still got a lot more to shoot but it's to that point where he's wondering what he's worn. See what's been worn here.

Freestyle L.A. (update)

Flashpoint Grafix — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 06:09:00 +0000

7,000 people came out to see 80s artists Stevie B (eh), Lisa Lisa (killed it), The Cover Girls, Expose, Debbie Deb & Shannon. My girl from Bones (Fox) Michaela Conlin was in the 3rd row. Topped my night in a nerd factor type way. You need to look up some Lisa Lisa stuff. Full Force on production was some good stuff.

Them's Junior Shoes: Pt.1

Flashpoint Grafix — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 06:45:00 +0000

Junior has nearly a billion pairs of shoes. Ok maybe not a billion but he never told me exactly how many. We've made the deal that he's going to wear a different pair of shoes every day until he runs out—and I'm going to document the series. Wanna go kick for kick? No takers? I guess this is part 1 in a 15 week series.
