In celebration of this sorry excuse for a holiday, Social Light Sounds decided to give the masses something to genuinely be thankful for.  From Arablak’s album ‘Fresh Heir‘ coming 2010, here is “Give Thanks” featuring Steadfast and Larry Cheeba (formerly known as L Da Headtoucha).

Check it out, pass it on, and don’t forget to thank SLS for providing such a valuable gift, during this rough economic period.

Enjoy, and feel free to have seconds.

Nite People shared the stage in Boston with the legendary Definitive Jux founder El-P.  The night was filled with good music, good drinks, and good people.  In the words of Borat it was a “Great Success!!”  The evening featured amazing performances from Sage Francis & B Dolan, Yak Ballz & Chauncey, and of course El-P.  Nite People set it off and had the crowd amped for El and his people.  Yohon DI busted out the infamous “GOLD PEICES” on stage which ultimately lead to some classic photos with the gang.  Big shout out to El, Sage, Yak, Chauncey, Kusto, Pablo, Timmy Wiggins, Paul Mighty, and Steadfast.  Special thanks to everyone who came out and showed support.  See you next time!

On September 19th we lost one of the most talented, influential, and inspirational DJ’s of all time. Roc Raida of the X-Ecutioners. He was such a huge influence on me and the way I approached DJing. I remember when I was starting out in high school I used to watch his and the rest of the X-Men’s routines on DMC dvds  over and over again, studying his body tricks(which i still cant do to this day),and the way he would juggle the records. It was incredible to watch him.  You could tell the he was really dedicated to his craft. So I took sometime out to send a salute to the legend cause he inspired me to do what I do on the tables today. Rest in Peace Roc Raida, your contribution to the artform will never be forgotten.
