heyyyy everyone! as a fellow ucr student and an URB Mag intern, i wanted to share this with you:
URB is looking for American immigrants or first generation descendants who identify themselves equal parts "hip-hop" and their cultural heritage for a style feature in our July/August issue.
- The shoot will be taking place on May 24 and 25 of next week. You will only be required to be there one of those days.
- You must send a CURRENT PHOTO of yourself and a short description as to how you identify yourself as half hip hop and your culture. Please note: you must be an immigrant or 1st generation. We will immediately erase your email if there is no photo or write up.
- We would like to photograph you at a location that fits your heritage/ please send those ideas along with your email and explain what that locatiion means to you.
Thank you for your time and we look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks for all the support.
Hip Hop Congress Riverside (UCR)....Whats up.....Wanted to say my piece about the Godfather of Soul......"James Brown is an American original. A king of soul and rock 'n' roll, Brown is one of the most influential musical artists of the last fifty years, and perhaps the most sampled artist in hip hop history. We are saddened by his death, but take comfort in his amazing, relentless legacy."
Check out the James Brown Tribute video from the movie The Commitments:
so i'm not exactly being a good example. i decided to ditch class today to see the bboy battle. and even though it was uber hot, i had uber fun. i think i've formed a new found crush towards some fresh faced bboys...bwahahahhaa... gjob hhc!
