Vancouver Continued.. Banana Leaf Cuisine!

Haven’t had access to reliable internet in a while, so I’m about to catch up on a lot of posts..! While in Vancouver last week, I got schooled onto some good eating.. If you know me, you know I’m a big fan of food in general! This was my first time eating Malaysian Food, and it was damn tasty.. !

Myself, DJ Arems from The Faction Soundcrew, 4Korners, DJ Smooth, and Flipout all met up at this spot, and ordered a whole heap of food.. Green beans, shrimp, prawns, coconut rice, kung-pow chicken, chicken currys, beef & chicken kebob skewers.. desert.. and more..

Those dudes in Vancouver frequent the spot a couple times a week (understandably so), kind of how me and the crew goto Garden in Toronto on the regular.

Anyways, if you are in Vancouver and want good food.. Don’t forget I told you about Banana Leaf!!!

Vancouver & Whistler Continued..

Still out here in Vancity.. It’s been raining quite a lot and I haven’t really had the opportunity to go out and hit the stores etc.  Monday Night I guest-spotted on The Late Night Creep radio show on Co-Op Radio CFRO. I’ll get the audio soon. Yesterday I went by Killawatt Studios (operated by Red-1 from The Rascalz), where my dude Lamar Ache (r&b artist) was working on an upcoming release.  Last night I played up in Whistler, which is usually a beautiful drive up the mountain, but we got got in a rainstorm, which sucked.  Shout out to 4Korners who came up with myself and DJ Arems as well.. ! It was still a good party.. Here a few random pics!

In Vancouver Right Now + My 23′rd Birthday In Vegas

Peace everyone, I made it into Vancouver safely on Sunday (yesterday) after a delayed flight and 2.5 hour wait in Winnipeg. I’ve got to commend West Jet; they had TV’s in every headrest with over 20 channels, so browsing between family guy & the olympics while falling in and out of sleep was not bad at all.. Plus the air hostess sang the entire plane a song while landing with the line “marry me, and fly for free” in it which had everyone laughing and in a good mood while landing. Went through some amazing clouds, but left my camera in the overhead compartment so didn’t get any pics or video.

Vancouver’s really laid back and literally a breath of fresh air from Toronto. So far, I’ve eaten sushi for dinner, and indian food for breakfast. Big shouts to Faction Soundcrew & J Parsons for the hospitality thus far. Went to Faction’s new Sunday Night @ Tonic Nightclub last night - was a wicked vibe. I have video which I’ll post soon. It’s already Monday..! Tonight I’m playing a guest set on my man DJ Tropic’s radio show from 130am-230am on 102.7 FM CFRO, you can listen online live via www.coopradio.org

http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=763405272&ref=ts#/event.php?eid=27279807820&ref=mf
for more details.

Oh ya. In one week I turn 23. If you are in Vegas for The Magic Convention, come through.
It’s @ The Moon Nightclub inside The Palms Hotel & Casino. So here’s my personal invite to the world.

EPMD x Stussy x Goodfoot x Ransom x Myself x Neil Armstrong x Complex
Should be dope!

Will touch base soon.
Peace…!

In Winnipeg Right Now

Last night I was at rockwood with DJ Tilt & Sir Lancelot.  Straight after playing there, I had to pack and catch a 7am flight to Winnipeg to kick off this West Coast Tour.  There was a huuuuuggeee line to check your baggage in (at least 45 minute wait), but the homie Ed from Inqmnd (www.inqmnd.ca) hooked up the line by pass..!!! Line by pass at an airport? Wicked way to start things off… Thanks my dude, see you in Vegas!

So.. Winnipeg… Alright, not trying to put this place down, but realistically, what do you do during the day out here? Lancelot & I walked around aimlessly and found nothing, but a drunk guy trying to punch a hole in a phone booth, a few cool paintings, and a very small amount of random people walking down the street.

Last night we tore down Vibe Nightclub (shouts to The Coach, Fin-S & Paxton), and tonight we will do the same on a more commercial level.

If you have to come to Winnipeg and wanna do something, go to a place called The Forks. For some good eats, check out The Old Spaghetti Factory (dope wings, clam chowder, and reasonable prices).

Lance leaves at 6am, and I’m off to Vancouver at 5pm.

Peace!
