Already in it’s third installment this June 2012, Spoken Herb serves as a platform for artists of every medium to create past their natural creative boundaries.
Description
Simply put, Spoken Herb is an exchange of new ideas and concepts in music and art. More importantly, it’s for artists to showcase their talent and help educate our younger generation by exposing a diverse range of creativity in a relaxed, subdued atmosphere.
Spoken Herb Festival 2012 will be held on June 02 2012 at Sartén Café in lower Antipolo City, Philippines. Be sure to check for updates and features leading up to the event!
Yo, just read on Rob Swift’s website today that Roc Raida would have turned 40 today. With all the turntablists we’ve had in Manila recently (J Rocc and Neil Armstrong) I thought it would only be proper to give a shout out to one of my hero’s growing up. I had the fortunate opportunity to actually kick with Roc Raida back in the day photo below. Anyways, click on Rob Swift’s link below to out more about Roc For Raida benefit.
I can’t even front, I didnt start listening to Donna Summer till about after college. The song that did it for me was “I Feel Love” video below. I am bummed to just find out about her passing. Her music will live on night clubs and discos across the world.

This was hour 48-72 of no sleep… I was pretty much out of it already, the only keeping me going was the Redbull’s and water… YES THATS ALL I HAD (I would admit it if i did paarrrty, look at my header for god’s sake!)
First open bar party where i didnt have a drink of Alcohol… I was the lame one, I did run into someone else who went with me on a bender the night before..
I wasn’t too social at this event, in fact I was highly irritable… cool thing Rosario from Status Magazine and the rest of her sisters were cool company.
Anyways… I was all souled out by the end of the night. Me and Omar from Commonwealth ended up grabbing sushi from some joint and the off to the Redbull Party…
