4 Years of Strictly Social - 8.18.11

 On August 18, 2011 I will be celebrating the 4th Anniversary of my monthly event Strictly Social. It's pretty hard to believe that four years ago I was planning my very first Strictly Social. We started humbly enough in North Hollywood, but 4 years later I feel as if I have actually helped create and support a whole new scene in Los Angeles. There is a growing community of artists who have discovered a platform through these events and have gone on to develop relationships that have brought about exciting new partnerships and sounds. 

As the centerpiece of what I wanted to share with people in regards to Nu-Soul Magazine, Strictly Social has really served as an experiment in the open-mindedness of the LA music scene. I have consistently exposed new talent and a multitude of emerging genres to those who were in the building.
I am so proud of reaching this incredible milestone! Thanks to everyone who has been a part of the movement since the beginning: Destroyer, Myxzlplix, Lucy Beer, Asya Shein, Thornell Jones, Loslito, Kenya, Ian Lights Out, Jayvon, Atlantic Connection, Novena and all the incredible artists who have come my way!


Come show some love for the BIG 4th Anniversary show on Thursday August 18, 2011 featuring Nikko Gray, defSound and Brook D'Leau!

Japan Relief March 24: My response to the events in Japan

Like everyone I was shocked by the level of devastation that hit Japan last week from an Earthquake, tsunami, and now nuclear radiation. Since I have a weekly event and a whole lot of DJ friends I decided I should throw a party to raise money to send to Japan. The resulting event will take place on Thursday March 24 at Little Temple here in Los Angeles and will feature some of the city's best DJs in all genres such as Mark de Clive-Lowe, Abdul Shakir, Jayvon, Eva, Destroyer and many more of my awesome friends. I will be donating all the door proceeds to Direct Relief International! And it's only $5!

Strictly Social presents Sa-Ra - Wednesday September 15, 2010



Nu-Soul Magazine & Soul Union Present
STRICTLY SOCIAL
An Evening Of Eclectic Soul Fusion
Wednesday September 15, 2010

Strictly Social takes place on the 3rd Wednesday of every month at LA’s charming Little Temple, continuing the legacy of the renowned Temple Bar, by featuring a carefully selected showcase of artists and DJs that reflect the Nu-Soul sound. This monthly event always features the hottest artists pushing the boundaries of soul and a vibe that is truly unique.

Featuring Live Performances by

THE MIGHTY SA-RA


The very definition of Nu-Soul, Sa-Ra Creative Partners make music that rests at the cross section of soul, hip-hop, electronica, and funk, making use of an astounding array of talented musicians, producers, and vocalists. Together they have worked with the likes of Common, Bilal, Jill Scott, Goapele, N.E.R.D. and more. Witness the Strictly Social debut of Sa-Ra for what is sure to be a mind-blowing experience into the future of music.

MUHSINAH



Having landed on the musical radar like some kind of a phantom battleship, this
Washington D.C. native continues to fire away at us, sinking nay-sayers

and making a name for herself at a rate which some might consider

alarming. Appearing on exceptional releases by The Foreign Exchange,

Common, Eric Lau, and Exile, Muhsinah has earned each and every title

that’s been thrown her way-

engineer/producer/composer/singer/songwriter/arranger/inspiration and

the like. Get ready for the much anticipated Strictly Social debut of

one of future soul's elite.

GRILLADE feat The Park, Ragen Fykes, Keelay


Borrowing their name from the traditional Creole dish made of meat braised in a rich sauce with vegetables, Grillade (pronounced “gree-YAHD”) too is hearty and filling. Fronted by vocalist Ragen Fykes, the band is as many parts Betty Davis and Nancy Sinatra as it is Cream and Jefferson Airplane. Producer, keyboardist and percussionist, Keelay offers up: “We’re musicians - artists. Grillade is a band that was born in an era where bedroom producers, singers and rappers are a dime a dozen. But we are playing the gigs, we are spending the time in the studio, we are crafting a brand new sound”.







Our residents DJ Destroyer & DJ Myxzlplix will be spinning a selection of future soul, organic hip-hop, and electronic beats all night!

Strictly Social 3 Year Anniversary - Wed August 18, 2010


Nu-Soul Magazine & Soul Union are Proud to present

THE STRICTLY SOCIAL 3 YEAR ANNIVERSARY

Wednesday August 18, 2010

Join us as we celebrate three years of ECLECTIC SOUL FUSION!

Since August of 2007 Strictly Social has helped to redefine the Los
Angeles soul scene by providing a place for artists to experiment with
genre and styles. Since then this monthly event has seen some of the
independent soul community's biggest names and most talented rising
stars while pushing the boundaries of soul music itself.

In the
last 12 months alone the likes of Yahzarah, Joy Jones, Yolanda Johnson,
Afta-1, Nikko Gray, N'Dambi, Shafiq Husayn, Sy Smith, and Mark de
Clive-Lowe have appeared at Strictly Social.

Always original, always on the cutting edge, STRICTLY SOCIAL
has become THE Place to enjoy the future of soul and beyond in Los
Angeles.

Be there for this special night of music!

Featuring Live Performances From:

THE REBIRTH

Introducing their new vocalist LATISHA BASKERVILLE


The Rebirth re-emerges in the Los Angeles soul scene with a new
vocalist for their Strictly Social debut. Come witness the family vibes
as they take the stage with Latisha Baskerville.


AMY SERRATA

Amy Serrata creates progressive soul with a touch of jazz and
hip-hop. Amy is currently focused on writing her second album which will
feature production by Vishnu from Block Cheddar Productions, Apple
Juice Kid, and Ski from Camp Lo.


E REECE

The hard penetrating, self-reflective vocals of this MC poignantly
illustrate that true school hip hop is alive and well. His music
transcends all cultures, and with a love for rhyming that’s deeply
rooted in the essence of the genre, it’s going to be hard to stop his
star from rising.


Our residents DJ DESTROYER & DJ MYXZLPLIX will be spinning a
selection of future soul, organic hip-hop, and electronic beats all
night!

She's being called, "A young Sade meets Lena Horne for the new
millennium" but, the enthralling singer/songwriter with a sound and
style all her own, writes and performs music that fuses R&B and Pop
with elements of Jazz and Hip Hop creating melodic gems that are hard to
forget. After years of honing her craft developing her live stage show,
style and approach, Ifé is ready to take center stage with the release
of her debut EP, CRESCENDO.

Like I said I have been very busy! I am on the promotions and marketing team for Body Boyz United 2010, an event that will be taking place in Las Vegas during 4th of July weekend. This amazing event will feature 4 days or unique parties, a fitness expo, celebrity guests, and musical performances all in the name of HEALTH, FITNESS, AND BODY  for Men of Color.

This past weekend the Body Boyz crew hit up Seduction Saturdays in LA to promote the event. We of course had to show off our bodies. You didn't need to twist my arm for that since I have been ripping up this week in time for my swimwear show casting and a fashion show I have coming up later in the week. Enjoy the photos.
