Things are going great out here! We even had a couple of off days in Italy so I had time to grab some real authentic gelato from these really cool people. ❤️
Visited a gorgeous church in Rome. The architecture is truly something to marvel at. Check out that ceiling!
Did a little souvenir shopping in Naples. I love that city. 🙂
We went to a reggae party in Naples and I ended up rocking a quick set. It was so dope. Loved the energy of everyone. The team teally had a great time.
I am receiving a lot of gifts on the road. I’m telling you…next time I’m packing underwear and socks. 🙂 I’ll probably have to mail some stuff home but that’s not a bad problem to have. 🙂
I’m really proud of myself for remembering how to pack like my sis, Casandra, taught me to. Haha.
Had a dope interview and photoshoot with Salad Days Magazine before the show in Bologna, Italy. 🙂
münster was DOPE. I was happy to rock there again. We had a great show, the energy was amazing. Afterwards I was blown away by man of booom. I was watching in the front row watching this crew rock, writing rhymes, leaning on the speaker feeling the beat… then they handed me the mic and i jumped up and stated rocking with them. so dope! =)
one part of tour life… always rearranging bags to make the weight limit!!
I was so happy to make it to Rome. It was on my wish list this year. 🙂
Dinner with the crew at a really great spot in Rome called, Necci.
Gotta find time to work out while on tour!! Even if it means missing my hair up a little bit. LOL.
On stage at Skaters Palace in Münster!
Signing everything from T-shirts to snap backs to phone cases. ❤️
Found these weights in the kitchen and decided to get it in real quick.
Was really cool getting to meet Elzhi. 🙂
…a couple of weeks ago I got to rock at hip hop kemp in Czech Republic. it was my first time there and it was an amazing experience! there were so many dope artists out there from Black Milk to the Skyzoo. I had a dope meet and greet at the LRG tent, where we gave away some of the Star and the Sky Remixes on vinyl. I ate goooood, met a lot of really dope people, spent time with friends and had a banging, packed show! after everything was done, we enjoyed a day in the beautiful city of Prague before heading back to the States.
here are some pics and footage from the weekend!

…the following week I was back in Europe, this time in Germany. if you know me, you know that Germany is one of my most favorite places to visit. I was excited to visit Cologne for the first time. it was a really cool city. very historic with a lot of modern touches. in my downtime, I stayed just on the outskirts of the city. it was GORGEOUS. Ive never seen anything like it before in “real life”. lol. there was a forest behind the house and you could see mountains off in the distance. it was a lovely experience to be in the stillness of it all, taking in the fresh, crisp air. I stayed with my friend’s mom and she was such an amazing hostess. She took me on a tour of the city and she fed me! lol. you know I was happy.
…the show in cologne was at a packed club called Subway for the Beatpackers Party. I rocked with DJ Jam and the energy was LIVE!! I did a few songs since it was just a teaser for a bigger show in January…but the crowd demanded another, so that’s what we did. the next day, we were off to Berlin to chill with my Jakarta Records fam. Farhot, Sterio, IAMNOBODI and I rocked at YAAM as a part of Berlin Music Week…man, I went on at 2:45am. it was a dope night…but at around 4am I had to lay down on the side of the stage. LOL! Berlin def knows how to party. Later that day I rocked at the Berlin Music Festival which was also a really dope show. I met Belgian artist, Coely. she had great energy and gives an amazing show. if you haven’t heard of her, check her out!!
…here are some pics from my time in Germany. =)

…this made my heart smile. 2010 interview with DJ Ekin. (hey Ekin!! =) ) This may be my first real, official interview of this caliber. this particular part (3:01) made my eyes sweat a lil. 😉 …. what a difference a year makes, imagine FOUR years! … I’m now a self managed, indie artist and speaker… getting out and touring this world with the support of some awesome friends and of course, my DJ Sandman who saw something in me and said “lets just have fun and see what happens.”….
