But don’t be mad homies and homegirls needless to say, this is only the first of many. The No-Hypebeast team, along with JC Dot, 1st Impressions Studio, Black Collection, and Team Pootie definitely gave you a memorable night, that you won’t soon forget. We got many sick pictures of all the madness that went down that night, but unfortunately can only put so many up. If you attended and don’t see your pic, just let us know and we can send it to you. Also be on the lookout for the facebook album dropping soon, with the complete album. Thanks to everyone who came and showed some love, we hope to see you again at the next one. But until then, just keep it rockin’ party people. More pics after the jump.

At first, I was like man this guy is going to think I am a joke, but he turned out to be a  cool, laid back guy and his personality definitely shows in his music.

Stef is not a DC native, he was born in Jamaica, moved to Miami, then LA and now lives here in the DMV with family. Living in all of those different areas has definitely inffluence his music, giving it a unique sound. He takes what he has learned from each hip hop scene and molds it together creating- Menace to Sobriety. Do not let the title confuse you, it is not about getting drunk or partying all the time, instead about life as he knows it. “My music is made to make you feel good and think, without being preachy.”

Click the pic above to listen and download Stef’s music. Not only does Stef rap, but he participates in promoting events, and making film.  To keep up with Stef and his projects check out  stefisdope.com

This video is for J. Cole’s single titled “Who Dat.” Although the official debut album has yet to be announced, his recent appearance on 106th & Park and the promotional plug for this video leaves fans with much to speculate about. The whole video is one continuos take, and I have to admit it works really well. This video must have been a challenge to shoot (to say the least) but everything from the concept, the angles, the coloring, and even the explosions are on point. I have to say its a good, solid body of work which BB Gun consistently delivers. This video is no different. Check out some more of their work at bbgunfilm.com, and peep J. Cole’s “Who Dat” music video below.
