Club Axis on Landsdowne Street sucks

they are right up there with the RMV.

So anyways, if there is anything you should know about me before I slip into a coma it should be noted that I like hip-hop music. Ok, yes I love the heffa. And if you really know whattup, then you shoudl also know that DJ Premier is like a fatherfigure to the kid. And no, I ain't no new to
rap in 95, non-rhythm-having hip-hop head. So suffic eit to say that when I hear that Preemo is spinning, then I'm there, potna. So this starter kit DJ they had in there was doing ok when I rolled through. He played some dope jams like Scenario, etc. Then he started wilin out nad played some extra ish that killed the buzz. Then, at about 12:30, Preemo took over and talked abit too much, but at least got things poppin a little better. Oddly enough, I swear he dropped Nas Is Like and it was like I got taken back to Stetson West all over again. I can remember my man Ant showing how to DJ using that record. Classic. Anyways, I had this starnge feeling that the next song was going to be not only a hip-hop classic, but possibly something that he also produced. So it was comedy that the next 20 songs or so were all his joints. For some reason this is mad funny to me. He straight up played all of his own songs up in that piece. But then, things took a turn for the worse. HE started experimenting and - although it was good music - this just wasn't the night. He tore shT down, but the selection lack its ruggedness and instead relied on its wit wo get by, which failed. The crowd thinned out; uninclined to nod their heads to Rick James's Mary Jane or some other oft-sample throwback jams. I guess maybe other folks felt how I did. I had expected a night full of that hot shT that I never get to hear played in the club. Instead, I got some of it, mixed in with some musical ish that didn't mesh well with my anticipation. I'm sayin yo, we can hear all that disco and retro sample ish on any top 40 night. So I was a bit disappointed at that if you couldn't tell. But I did snap two great flicks of him in action. Plus, Big Shug was in the house and performed four songs, two throwbacks and his two recent joints. It was aiight. Overall, I enjoyed the music, but it definitely could have been better. And by the way, the security folks suck. Stop having hip-hop ish if you gonna restrict hip-hop from entering the building. Fell me on this one. I'm sleepy.
