The Movements'.......

You guessed it: Moving.

I got wind of this video clip of me that was on you tube. I must say I was impressed. I didn't know I sounded so much like an MC. It was nice to see. I hope you enjoy it. Because of this clip I'm gonna perform more.



My next performance will be at the next "Super Heroes and Rockstars". Check the WB event calendar at

Its been a Long time, shouldnt've left you.....

Let me begin by saying...


I hope everyone is well rested... cause I know I aint! Im too busy movin, and if you happen to be well rested that means you can't possibly be movin' wit me, hah. So lets fix that. Tonight our good friends Jason Reynolds and Griffin are having a screen printing party at the Leo Kesting Gallery. Not only will there be great art and beeeeautiful people, there will also be drinks and best part of all is...its a printing party so, bring a shirt, jacket or any other article of clothing you'd like to get tricked out.
The movement is moving.

****BLCK****

There's this dope project I'm a part of. Its called "BLCK". And If your black, and aspire to be anything worth being...you need to 'be' here.
(I cut and pasted the info, so if it doesn't sound like my writing....you guessed it...Its not. )

RSVP People! And fast! There's probably like 5 seats left.

FRSH Pulp Sponsored Event
BLCK Premier + Panel Discussion
Hosted by I.M.G + Nakeya B. Photography

Learn. Network. Build. Success is a combination of who you know and what you know. Who you know can open the door and what you know keeps you there and can take you beyond. BLCK is about sharing experiences, gaining new insights and networking with each other so we can all take our aspirations to the next level.

The focus of BLCK is to not exclude other races but to celebrate + acknowledge the accomplishments of four young Black men and share in their experiences. There are so many successful men of color changing the game and making a difference; this is a glimpse of four.

TreVZ Producer. Kareem Black Photographer. Anthony Hudson Associate. Anslem Samuel Journalist.

BLCK will be presented in the form of an exhibit, which will consist of photographs + excerpts from interviews, and a moderated discussion that will explore the role of minorities (past, present and future) in media, music, advertising, marketing and business as well as each individuals journey to where they are now + their contribution to their field.

Also being featured in the same space is Nakeya B., "One Woman, Many Men"

A collection of eight black and white portraits of black men as seen through the eyes of a black woman. This specific perspective is one that has been underrepresented since photography's invention. The images explore the notion of trust and how the factors of race and gender influence them. "One Woman, Many Men" also serves as a platform to deconstruct the "White male" exclusivity associated with photography historically.

Seating is VERY limited and priority will be given to those who RSVP and then on a first come, first seat basis.

BLCK
Monday, May 4
Creative Pier Arts Center, 833 Broadway @ 13th Street
Exhibit opens @ 7PM
Discussion begins @ 8:30PM

There is a $10 donation at the door and light refreshments will be served.
To RSVP, send an email to awright@theimgway.com

Kid+Cudi = Omen

So.....

     Its seems, whenever these feet touch European soil, I bump into an Artist from the U.S. Last spring while at Collete in Paris I ran into Mr. Paris/Tokyo himself ....Lupe Fiasco. Cool guy, that Lupe.

      

So now, I'm at customs taking out my passport and travel info to give to the agent, when beside me comes Kid Cudi. I bump into him again at the baggage claim. I says what up, then he asks me if I'm a producer. (Do I look like a producer to you?), anyway I says yeah. After a lil small talk, I let him hear a track. He digs it (or so I assume, since he listened to the whole beat). Then gives me his email and says hit him up.  And that I will. He went on to say that he didn't know what exact sound he was going for, but when it jumps out at him he'll know... 

(that's helpful :-*).

  

      According to the Alchemist (a book I'm reading at the moment), this particular encounter is what some spiritualists would refer to as an "Omen". To me, this encounter was reassurance that I am indeed vibrating at the right frequency. I am a planet orbiting in its ordained solar system. 

(translation: ...I'm on the right track.) 

I'm just sayin...

 How can they front on me when God got my back.

"...I'll be your American boy!"

....Estelle holla at me! Yes folks, this is RIPMC reporting live from London (yes, i found the apple store in London). I know.. I didn't really tell anyone I was going till I was on the plane. Sometimes you just have to do things like that... nothing personal. Any way, I'll be out here for three weeks. I'll probably do a couple shows while I'm out here. That's the goal. As I check out the Museums I'll post about them, so no worries you wont miss a thing.... except me of-course! 

:-)

     Hold on...Pardon me folks.... I see some lonely beautiful british women that needeth my company. I'll be right back....(!!!)

Jaime + Lewis x RIPMC = Literary Evangelist

.....At least that's what the word on the street is. Well, not so much the streets... but.. it is however the word on Un-Mute.com. I've been interviewed! Check me out!

Thanks Myisha!

Birth Of The Cool Revisited

So..... I make music, right. And theres this new project I'm working on, right. In fact, its the music your hearing right now, coming from the play list on the right side of the screen. I know what your thinking "yo this sht is mad hot son!"...yeah your right, it is. These are actually 3 songs from: Rebirth Of The Cool. The project is a Miles Davis inspired (Birth Of The Cool) music mix tape, in which I take my favorite songs and flip them, or, remix them. Hence the name.
Enjoy them. They're yours to listen to. Your welcome.
