Dj Quik & Scarface Live @El Corazon 8/12/17

Smooth line up with these originals and even though I got hustled on the VIP meet & great I paid for both performers did well. This venue is always packed and hot as a mutherfucker inside during the summer. However the location is easy to get to and the stage is set up nice for shows. Scarface did his solo album stuff and was flawless, DJ Quik had the place moving with all of the songs we know and love like “Tonite” and many others. I have seen Quik years ago at Crocodile so I knew it would be a good show. As for the VIP that never happened I raised hell about it and one year later in 2018 went back stage through some other connections I had to demand my meet & greet from the year before. Dj Quik was cool as a hell, took some pictures with me gave me a couple T-shirts (since I had no shirt on) and said “aye man we cool? We good? because my debts are paid I have never had someone looking for me like this” and we both laughed I said we good man. Then he proceeded to tell someone else this story of meeting Eazy-E for the first time and how he was so nervous to meet him and that was the end of the show. So in the end, all is forgiven and now I think really highly of the dude for making shit right. Makes his music all the much better and would see him live again anytime in Seattle, WA.

Lil Eazy E Live @Downey CA 9/7/12

From the godfather of Gangsta rap is his first son Lil Eric Wright. I flew into town for this one which was an Eazy-E tribute show accompanied by OG’s; BG Knocc out, Dresta, DJ Yella, Lil Eazy E, Kid Frost and many others that rolled with Eazy during his time on this earth. The venue was very small like a shoe box and the location a stones throw from Compton, CA. The first acts were good and no stage at all in here just a corner area with a microphone and a small makeshift bar in back. Eazy-E’s Mother made a surprise appearance and I was lucky to get a picture with her throwing up the Eastside Compton. Lil Eazy-E was nothing but smiles in there taking pictures with his other brothers who are also artists. Splitting image from his Dad, sounded like, looked like and walked like him. Just a bit more swoll mode. I can’t even describe to you the energy when Lil Eazy performed “Real muthafuckin G’s” in there. I thought the place was going to catch on fire and blow away from the intense lyrics calling out all the studio gangstas -you know the names. BG Knocc out now as a grown adult did his part in that song and added the over hand right to the most infamous diss track ever recorded. If you are out there Dr. Dre & Ice Cube. You better bring back something for the hood!! A bucket list show for me to see.
