Shogun stomps fools

Weekend highlights included getting 2 new mixes done for “Insomniaddict” ( 12 of 17 done, 71% finished ) and watching SHOGUN finally show up in the cage and knock Chuck into retirement. Don’t get me wrong, I respect Chuck for what he’s done in the UFC but Shogun was nasty when he was on in Japan. Man, I miss PRIDE… those productions were sick. If you’re a fan of MMA and haven’t had a chance to check it out I highly recommend renting or checking some DVDs. The Grand Prix are a good place to start. R.I.P. PRIDE … the illest fight org. Anyway back to music. I saw this a few weeks back and said WTF?! I just couldn’t wrap my head around it.

Soulja Boy and Fabolous April 29 2009 K.A. Promotions presents Soulja Boy, Fabolous, Red Café, and NyneWest Performing LIVE at The Hanover Theatre! This show promises to be one of the greatest hip-hop performances ever to hit Worcester, MA. Ticket prices: $25-$43; Meet & Greet Passes Available

??? The HANOVER THEATER is a local theater that brings in plays, broadway shows and occasional one off gigs of more diverse nature. Though they have occasional offerings outside the norm; their objective is to bring the “arts” to the city. Now, I understand wanting to expose various arts to it’s patrons and give platforms for things outside the norm…. but I have to wonder what went into the thought process in booking SOULJA BOY as the first headlining hip-hop show at the theater. Do they believe SOULJA BOY is indicative of modern hip-hop artistry? If you would have told me this would happen speculatively; I would have said you were trippin’. Curious to me… but either way I’m hoping this OPENS the doors to more opportunities to see Hip-Hop at the Hanover (not the opposite).
