CASE 2 Homage by ZONE-WST

Here is another of the many tributes being done for the fallen Graffiti Legend KASE 2.  This one comes from my partner in crime ZONE1-WST.  Here is the quote he left under the flick: 
"When someone who means so much to the culture like Case did, passes, you just don't carry on like everything is normal and as it was...I'm saddened by the fact that I'll never get to meet or paint with the King of Style...He's pretty much the reason why I try my best to put genuine style into every piece I do. To me Case was the Muhammad Ali of Graffiti. A bold poet who could back up every word...My condolences to Case's family and the TFP Crew. I hope I was able to do Case's name justice. - Zone1-WST"

A Message From Afrika Bambaataa

Hotep:

Peace Be Unto You:



This message is for YOU and Whomever Else who wants and can GET INVOLVE:

The health issue in the Hip Hop Community is a crucial topic that really needs to be address on a national level. Health Insurance is a serious problem in the Americas which is a shame. Europe has a way better health Insurance for the people than all the Americas do. How many of us have health insurance??? Health Insurance is like paying rent or mortgages and that is one of the biggest problems facing all Americans especially Hip Hoppers in trying to get affordable health Insurance. the real problem is knowing what foods to eat right for our Natural Being selves from birth to death. To tell the truth most Americans do not eat healthy natural organic foods and even to go organic or raw foods is expensive as buying to Mac computers, LOL. But we have a serious problem in our community of Hip Hop. Our Brother the father Kool Herc cause much awareness, but now everything back to silence again on health in our community. Now our Great Brother Ernie has a bill that will take a life time and cause problems even for his family to pay off cause all of us seriously do not have that heath insurance of the fake American dream. What do we as thinkers and doers in Hip Hop Activism do about this? What awareness in making some real serious noise about this to get our All Nationalities so called races of Hip Hop flavor of Humans to formed a Hip Hop health Insurance for All People?

Kool Herc,Brother Ernie,myself,you,who will be next??? How do we make noise to get all the big spenders(Executives) in Hip Hop who serious have money and these record labels who made so much money on Hip Hop to help out in Brother Ernie Bill as well as to help all of us to Make a serious Hip Hop affordable health insurance. Also to teach our community about Natural Herbal Organic teachings on Health. We must deal with both sides of the medicines but mostly teaching our Hip Hop community on the Natural way of Healing. How can we give a big benefit concert and a big dance  rave to help brother Ernie out with his bill and to form a real Hip Hop Health Insurance Agency??? Come on my Warrior Think tank cause we need all to help out with this. What club,center,big Dance Hall will give us their space to do this in any state or city? How do we approach all these Hip Hop stars or singers who were photo shoot by Brother Ernie and got even more famous cause his taking some bigger than life pictures of them,which end up in Word Up,Right On,or many of all the different music magazines or books out there past or present?


This is a test to all our community who claim they love Hip Hop but don’t Honor it with backing it up with money but everyone else outside of it cause of greed end up controlling it and not giving nothing back to help out like a Universal Zulu Nation Dome Cultural Center  which could house a school,gym,auditorium,health clinics etc. Hip Hop Museums etc. Hip Hop for a United Nations of the Streets etc. Come on my Think tank of Hip Hop,How do we make noise on all radio shows,TV shows our own Media to help out Brother Ernie and US to raise money for Brother Ernie and us to do a successful Hip Hop Health Insurance???? What can we do to help self? And if 2012 predictions does happen as many think or say,then we will not have to worry about no bills,Hip Hop Health Insurance or anything in the world cause if 2012 does happen we can kiss our asses goodbye cause we did not even raise awareness in Hip Hop about Disaster Preparedness. The Hip Hop Anniversary is coming in November 9 to 13 can we get some type of Benefit in for Brother Ernie or any time after for a large event with many Hip Hop stars,singers,even another benefit with all DJS for health benefit?We need organizers and doers of the word. Please let us all know what we all could do about this serious problem in our community that has went back to sleep after our Brother father Kool Herc incident. May The Supreme Force to Whom is called by many names keep giving all of you many Blissings and may we all STAND UP on Love, Truth, Peace, Freedom, Justice, Work in uplifting Fallen Humanity.



Each One Teach One,Feed One, Help One, Get Up and Do For Selves



Peace ,Honor and Respect

Your Brother in Music and Struggle

Choor Boogie - Collectors Montana Can


Here we go with another Spanish Montana Hardcore collector's can.  As usual, limited to only 500 pieces.  This one comes with a new twist. Packaged in wooden box instead of the normal cardboard box.  I like!  I've been collecting these since they came out and was wondering when they were going to start using US artist.  Finally, the newer ones have.  This one is special to me since it's from San Diego writer and good friend Chor Boogie.  This guy has worked extremely hard to hone his skills to where he is.  I seen the climb and could not be prouder of this guy.  Salute to you Chor!

Vintage San Diego Hip Hop Flicks

Just as the title states.  This is going to be a new segment where I'm going to do my Joe Conzo imitation and post some old San Diego Hip Hop flicks that I've taken or have been part off.  MAll of these were taken with a 135 mm camera.  These first 3 are circa 1983-1984.  Enjoy!
This is me pretending to be headspining.  lol.  This is at the apartment complex Helix Plaza, right of the 94 freeway.  We had lots of fun at those apartments.

Here we have my old Popping partner Mr. X and Kid Hop busting nickles.  This is at Eucalyptus Park.  The same one that SD Zulus had a B-Boy jam last year at.  We walked with the linoleum and boom box all the way to the park just to get down.  Just like in the movie "Wild Style". lol

Here is another shot of Helix Plaza apartments.  1983 for sure.  This is Mr. C before he changed his name to Kid Hop and my lil next door neighbor Joseph that I use to baby sit and mentor.  Fun times...  This is it for right now.  Stay tune as I try to show you some truly vintage flicks and share with you a lil piece of San Diego Hip Hop history.  Peace and Blessings.

Happy 50th T-Kid

 
Here we go with a lil video of the Nasty boy himself The Terrible T-Kid 170.  This king is 50 and still holds it down on the regular and can still crush cats.  Happy big 50th King.  Check out how the king cools out and then goes bombing a fresh production even in the rain.  The incredible CES1, Ske, & Serve hold it down in the producto.  Enjoy!
