Hold up wait a minute let me put some kush up in it. . .

My apologies ahead of time for the bullshit commercials on this  vid. . .

If you haven’t heard of Dre Day ’11, well you are probably too busy living in your parents basement sniffing glue. With that said, this Friday February 18th @ Chicago’s legendary venue Double Door, Dre Day ’11 will be popping off with The Jordan Years playing house band with a TON of special guests, The Opus, Mic Terror, DJs Intel, Big Once, TREW, KOOL HERSH, and The Comeups . This event is brought to you by the guys that brought Chicago: Mayer Hawthorne, Kings Go Forth, Wu Tang Clan, Mos Def, MF Doom, North Coast Festival, etc.

Please do me a HUGE favor and check out COLD GRUM PRODUCTIONS and GROUND LIFT MEDIA. These two organizations are truly what keeps Chicago’s Hip Hop and Soul scene alive.

Also if you can’t be at Dre Day cause maybe you live in another country or are a leper you can watch the show live at Gigity.tv They are cool enough to stream the show for no money, which makes myself and the rest of the event VERY HAPPY. Support Gigity too if you have it in ya.

All Dre All day,

Man this week is getting crazy! Dre Day rehearsals the next two nights at WTR, if you’re near North Ave & Humboldt and hear some banging Dre you are close. . . Anyway, this year we are  pleased to announce the special guests sitting in with The Jordan Years. Before I get to all of that though let me give a HUGE shout out to Wes Restless for hand picking all of the guests himself and I could not be more excited, seriously that is not a roll of dimes in my pocket!

After you get the snow shoveled and the fire started, grab that special friend close and take a listen to the Jordan Years “Warm Me Up”.

It goes great with any wine or spirit on a day like today Chicago.

The first time I met ADaD was in Mike Ryan’s van outside of the Hothouse as they were working out their set list with Kenny Keys about to perform as Eulorhythmics. That encounter led to Mike, Kenny and myself having a few sessions under the name MR MAKK, short lived but yet a cool experience. This past New Years we brought ADaD into the mix with  The Jordan Years; the Elbo Room will never be the same.

Here’s the latest video from PROH MIC ft. ADaD called “Life” (All Natural, Inc.). Now keep in mind ADaD not only spits some real life shit but also directed and edited this vid, I tip my hat.
