Sunset Jazz Concert Series | Brewerytown Living

Philadelphia summers.

Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young perform Suite: Judy Blue Eyes at Woodstock. 

Yes, I’ve been feeling Azealia Banks for a bit, but one must pay homage to my fellow Uptowner Philly not NYC, Miss E V E. I might jam to 212, but the 215 - Germantown | West Oak Lane | Mt. Airy - is always it. 

Eve slayed. She looked gorgeous. Her dad stood next to us. Sweet. Her energy was fun and raw. She gave my sister the mic. High-fived me. Even harlem shook it with my boy. Can’t wait for her 2012 release. 

And!

Show was over by 8:30 so I was able to hustle it to my friend’s birthday dinner at El Vez. Love.

Druggys Wit Hoes Again | ScHoolBoy Q 

Live at the TLA last night, April 26. 

“Now which… want it with the fat boy?”

This Is Dom Kennedy Tour | I Love Dom | Philadelphia

“Avez-vous déjà goûté des frites?”

The Girl From Ipanema. 

Astrud Gilberto + Stan Getz. 1964.

Lianne La Havas. No Room For Doubt.

Still at Johnny Brenda’s. Too busy sipping brew and flying over a sea of God’s hipsters to capture Why Even Try, which was amazeballs live thanks to his bassist and guitarist and of course Theophilus’ own dervish antics. Managed to get bits of Last Night. 

Theophilus London and the lovahs LVRS swung by Johnny Brenda’s last night bigging up the Giants in Eagles terriotry, but it’s Mr. London, so it’s cool cause he’s cool. 

Big Spender takes on a new life performed live. The energy is sick, more so than the chiller recorded version. Only thing missing was A$AP. 

Awesome ten minutes of unadulterated vibe. Love when musicians hone in on their artistry and lose themselves in the moment. Their bliss makes me happy. And that should be the aim.

Florence + The Machine covers the Jamie XX produced “Take Care” by Drake ft./ Rihanna. 

Jamie XX also produced Gill Scott-Heron’s We’re New Here, which features Take Care’s inspiration “I’ll Take Care of You.”
