In the presence of Greatness

From Russell Simmons, Lyor Cohen, Kevin Liles and Rick Rubin up high to Dmx, KRS-1, Redman, Method Man and Eminem on stage, along with the A class gathering of hip hop personalities throughout the venue, it was pure heaven for me last like night at the Brooklyn academy of music. This years Hip Hop Honors, was a well deserved dedication to Def Jam and while I won't give away what happened prior to the Oct. 13th airing, I will say that there are a number of great moments not just in terms of performance but also in regards to insight and personal stories given throughout the show. And for me personally it's always an enjoyable trip down memory lane to see and music to links so directly to my youth. It was a memorable night that I wont forget anytime soon.



And apparently Ja and X patched things up.Nice.
