DIESEL’S xXx BROOKLYN BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION

Filed Under Music News, News | Leave a Comment



Good Afternoon All.

I hope that your weekend & your extend weekend, if your home today for the Columbus Day holiday went as planned.

On saturday I was one of at least 5000 people that attended Diesel’s 30th Anniversary Birthday Celebration in none other than Brooklyn, that’s right B to the K!  I must say that this was probably the best event to be at for 2008.  The reason why I’m not scared to say that is because this party was thrown in 17 different countries live at the same time… The theme was the Circus meets Rock & Roll, fully equipped with popcorn, funnel cakes, hot dogs, ice cream, midgets, men on high ropes, etc.   The night was also jammed packed with dope performances by Chaka Khan, T.I., N.E.R.D, Hot Chip, M.I.A & Franz Ferdinand.  Please see the pics straight from my blackberry, but there’s more pics & performance video on diesel’s website (www.diesel.com/xxx) & wire image where you will see me & image director Alexander Allen on the red carpet representing..  I also would like to give a special shout out to the beautiful GG @ Diesel for holding me as always and for the invite to this memorable party!

It is AMAZING!
