Blogging for the Centric Channel!

 

This week I was approached to join the blogging staff of Centric, which I had never heard of. It turns out Centric is a new television station that finds BET J and VH1Soul joining forces to support eclectic soul music. They reached out to me to blog on their website, which of course I said yes to.

They have a few blogs on their site but the one I will be contributing to is called Sub Centric, which focuses on underground artists! I am so excited to get to promote what I am doing on a bigger platform!

The Foreign Exchange Grammy Party Photos

Nu-Soul Magazine and RedLight Special Events kicked off Grammy weekend 2010 with a special event to celebrate the first Grammy nomination of The Foreign Exchange. Although Nicolay and Phonte did not take home the trophy, on this night they partied LA style with their friends and supporters at the packed downtown venue, Elevate. A line stretched around the corner as eager fans awaited to take part in this momentous occasion. A truly memorable night in Los Angeles, 21 floors above the city, the party did not stop. Enjoy the photos courtesy of Kris Perry and check the video by Anthony Valadez! This was definitely the biggest party I have thrown so far!
